Configuration: Adapter Name 

Enter a Device Name for your Bluetooth to Serial Adapter
(length <= 31 alphanumeric characters). For example:
“Bluetooth to Serial Adapter”.

Once you have entered this information, please press the

Save

Button, followed by the 

Disconnect

button.

Automatic Connection:

Remove your Bluetooth to Serial Adapter from the PC COM port, and connect it to your
RS-232 or RS-422/485 device.

Push the MODE button to change from Configuration mode to DATA mode. The MODE
LED will turn off.

Following this, automatic connection will begin. If configured in the Master state, the
Bluetooth to Serial Adapter will scan its proximity for a Bluetooth device that has the
matching MAC address and PIN code. If found, it will establish the wireless link
automatically and the Bluetooth LED (blue color) on the adapter will become illuminated.
If configured in the Slave state, the Bluetooth to Serial Adapter will wait for another
Bluetooth device to create a link with it.

More Detail on Initial Baud Rate Setting 

1) When power is applied to the  Bluetooth to Serial Adapter, it will try to link (Master) or 

be linked (Slave) with another Bluetooth device with a matching MAC address or PIN 
code and build a link between them. If another Bluetooth device cannot be found 
(e.g. its power is turned off), the initial baud rate of the Bluetooth to Serial Adapter 
will be set to 115200 (default).

If you forgot any previous settings for the Bluetooth to Serial Adapter, and want to 
reconfigure it, simply turn off the power of the other Bluetooth devices, and power on 
your Bluetooth to Serial Adapter individually. Because it is impossible for your 
Bluetooth to Serial Adapter to establish a link with its paired Bluetooth device (it is 
turned off), the baud rate of the Bluetooth to Serial Adapter will default to 115200.

You can then use 115200 baud to connect the Adapter with your PC, then change its 
settings accordingly.

2) When power is applied to a Bluetooth to Serial Adapter and the paired Bluetooth 

device is found and automatic connection has been made between them, the BLUE 
Bluetooth LED on the Bluetooth to Serial Adapter will light up, and the baud rate of the 
Bluetooth to Serial Adapter will be the value which was previously input in UART 
Configure in the previous section.

When the BLUE Bluetooth LED is illuminated on the Adapter, and you want to
