And does the EZ-b's own led blink or also the red LED on the bluetooth module?

Also try this link. There is a video with detailed instructions on how to connect to the EZ-B: Clickity

The ez-b led, blink in orange and the bluetooth is red, not blinking. I see the video and see that the led of the ez-b is white (or blue) not orange when the board is connected. Thanks to all.

Every EZ-B has a different color LED:) That was my little idea

To make sure i understand...

  1. Orange LED blinks
  2. Red LED does not blink

Does the Red LED not blink when it is connected to power?

Does the Red LED stop blinking during the connection attempt?

The situation is:

  1. orange led blink, since the board is power up.
  2. when the board is associated via bluetooth with the pc, the led of the bluetooth module, does not blink and the pc tell my that the connection is established. Then i go to the ez-bilther and try to connect to the board, but ez-b don't see the board. Thanks in advance.

Can you try it with only one program running on your computer. Only load ARC. Do not load any other programs.

  1. Provide power to the EZ-B
  2. Both lights on the EZ-B should be flashing
  3. Close down all running programs on your computer
  4. Load ARC from the Start Menu
  5. Select the communication port for the EZ-B in the Connection Control in ARC
  6. Press the "Connect" button next to the communication port in ARC
  7. Both lights should stop flashing and the ARC will connect

If that process does not work, then your EZ-B must be damaged. Can you please email us high resolution pictures of the bottom and top of the EZ-B? support at ez-robot.com

Sometimes I have a similar problem where i will lose the connection but it wont let me re-establish it. i found that wiggling the bluetooth card or slightly lifting and reseating it helps. --Troy

I had the same program for a long time. i found that using a more powerful accu helps a lot. --Niek
