Electrodragon BC04 Bluetooth To Serial Connection Fail

I picked up one of these https://www.electrodragon.com/w/BC04 to use with my Intelliscope 10" I was wondering if anyone had any tips to get this to work. I keep getting the message about it being able to connect but not getting any response from the telescope. I turned the encoder settings off Get Automatically and to the settings someone else here had mentioned. I'm using the Orion serial adapter and it's plugged into the COL but I can't seem to get it to connect.

    You will probably have to configure the serial settings manually

    • baud rate
    • parity
    • stop bits

    We do this automatically with SkyBT, but that likely will not work with you device.

    So I am thinking it may have something to do with it being extra chatty as referenced here:

    The only issue I face now is that I do not have a gender changer handed to serial into the adapter to change the settings.
