The Standard seriel forbindelse via Bluetooth (COM14) driver enables Windows applications to communicate with a paired Bluetooth device through a virtual serial port. Associated with Microsoft’s Bluetooth serial support, this entry is useful for users connecting compatible equipment that exchanges data over a serial connection, such as scanners, instruments, or communications accessories. COM14 is the assigned port number, not a separate hardware model.
Key Features
- Virtual serial communication: Lets applications use COM14 to exchange data with Bluetooth equipment that supports the Serial Port Profile (SPP).
- Windows integration: Works with the Windows Bluetooth stack and your Bluetooth adapter’s driver to provide serial connectivity.
- Application compatibility: Allows software with COM-port support to access a paired device without a physical serial cable.
- Connection management: Exposes the assigned port in Device Manager so you can check its status and select the correct port in your application.
How to Install Standard seriel forbindelse via Bluetooth (COM14) Driver
- Check your Windows version and Bluetooth adapter. The listed supported systems are Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP, but the appropriate driver depends on your adapter and Windows installation. For Windows 10/11 searches, note that Windows 11 compatibility is not established by this listing.
- Review the download details. Before choosing a Standard seriel forbindelse via Bluetooth (COM14) driver download for Windows, confirm its source and compatibility. This virtual port typically uses Windows-provided components rather than a standalone COM14 driver. Prefer Windows Update or your adapter manufacturer’s official free download.
- Install or update Bluetooth support. Run Windows Update or install the correct Bluetooth adapter driver. In Device Manager, you can also right-click the relevant Bluetooth device or serial-port entry and select the driver update option.
- Pair your serial-compatible device. Enable its Bluetooth serial service if required. Windows may assign COM14 or another available port; check under “Ports (COM & LPT)” in Device Manager.
- Test the connection. Select the assigned COM port in your application, apply any communication settings specified by the equipment manufacturer, and verify that data transfers correctly.
Keep your Bluetooth adapter driver and Windows components updated to address connection issues and maintain compatibility. Choose the latest version approved for your hardware and operating system rather than an unrelated driver package labeled COM14. On older Windows releases, compatible updates may no longer be available.
Common Issues and Fixes
- Device not detected / COM14 missing: Re-pair the Bluetooth device and enable its Serial Port Profile (SPP). In Device Manager, show hidden devices, remove stale “Standard Serial over Bluetooth link” entries, then rescan.
- Install fails: Run the installer as administrator and update the Bluetooth adapter driver. If it still fails, unpair the device, uninstall the existing Bluetooth serial entry, reboot, and re-pair.
- Version/COM-port conflicts: Old pairings can leave duplicate COM assignments or make COM14 unavailable. Uninstall unused Bluetooth serial ports in Device Manager, rescan, and update any app that hard-codes COM14 to the newly assigned port.
