FAQs

 

Can I use multiple HC-05 modules in the same vicinity?

 

Yes, you can use multiple HC-05 modules simultaneously. However, it's essential to ensure that each module operates on a different Bluetooth channel to prevent interference between them.

 

What is the default baud rate of the HC-05 module?

 

The default baud rate of the HC-05 module is typically set to 9600 bps (bits per second). However, you can configure it to different baud rates using AT commands according to your project requirements.

 

Is it possible to update the firmware of the HC-05 module?

 

No, the HC-05 module generally does not support firmware updates. The functionality and features are fixed and cannot be altered or updated after manufacturing.

 

How do I reset the HC-05 module to factory settings?

 

You can reset the HC-05 module to its factory settings by applying a high signal (3.3V or 5V) to the KEY pin while powering it up. This action will restore all configuration parameters to their default values.

 

Can the HC-05 module be used in battery-powered applications?

 

Yes, the HC-05 module is suitable for battery-powered applications due to its low power consumption. However, it's essential to consider the power requirements and choose an appropriate power source to ensure optimal performance and battery life.

 

What is the maximum communication range of the HC-05 module?

 

The effective communication range of the HC-05 module depends on various factors such as the environment, obstacles, and signal interference. In general, the module can achieve reliable communication over distances of several meters in open spaces.

 

Does the HC-05 module support Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocol?

 

No, the HC-05 module does not support Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocol. It is based on the Bluetooth version 2.0+EDR specification, which is different from the BLE protocol used in newer Bluetooth devices.

 

Can I use the HC-05 module for audio streaming or voice communication?

 

While the HC-05 module supports serial data communication, it is not optimized for real-time audio streaming or voice communication. For such applications, you may need to consider other Bluetooth modules designed specifically for audio transmission, such as the HC-05's counterpart, the HC-05 module.
