1. SCO / eSCO Audio Link
BTM modules provide an AT command to establish an SCO / eSCO audio connection between a pair
of BTM modules (or BISM2). This enables the user to create bidirectional audio links independently
from a particular Bluetooth profile. The only prerequisite is the existence of a Rfcomm link (serial port
profile) between the modules. If this link doesn’t exist, it can be created using AT+SPD<BdAddr>.
Please refer to pg. 29.
A SCO/eSCO link is intended for bidirectional transmission of speech. The sampling rate is fixed to
8 kHz, meaning a usable bandwidth of 3.5 kHz.
For SCO there are 3 packet types defined in the Bluetooth specification [1]: HV1, HV2, HV3. Each of
them occupies one slot. They differ in the level of bit error checking. It is recommended to enable all
three packet types for SCO links. This will pass the final decision down to the baseband. There is no
retransmission of erroneous SCO packets.
For eSCO and basic data rate, there are 3 packet types defined in the Bluetooth specification [1]: EV3,
EV4, EV5. EV3 occupies one slot, EV4 and EV5 can occupy up to three slots each. They differ in the
level of bit error checking. It is recommended to enable all three packet types for eSCO links. This will
pass the final decision down to the baseband. eSCO packets involve a CRC code and retransmission of
erroneous eSCO packets.
Packet types and link types (SCO or eSCO) are negotiated on link setup. A BTM can accept either
incoming SCO or eSCO links (S register 584), but not both SCO and eSCO at one time. If the
initiating side requests an unsupported link type, the audio link will fail. The initiating BTM module
is supposed to request the remaining link type in that case.
Table 3.14 lists all AT commands and S-Registers for SCO/eSCO links.

Link type (SCO/eSCO) and packet types defined by
S584.
0 = SCO (HV1,HV2,HV3) enabled
1 = eSCO (EV3,EV4,EV5) enabled
Only one link type can be enabled at one time.
The recommended value to enable this feature is 7.
Value = bitmask for packet type. The link type (SCO/
eSCO) is defined by S584.
0 : Feature disabled
1 : HV1 (S584=0) or EV3 (S584=1)
2 : HV2 (S584=0) or EV4 (S584=1)
