When connected to the host microprocessor via the UART transport, the module appears as a COM port. This makes it easy for designers to write software to utilize Bluetooth wireless communication.  The SPP profile embedded within the module provides a menu for making configuration changes utilizing AT commands described below in section 8.2:   8.1  Default Configuration •  UART Baud Rate: 9600 baud • Number of Bits: 8 •  Stop bit: One • Parity: None •  H/W Flow Control: Disable • PIN: 1111 •  Device Name: ZBA-SPP • Mode: Slave •  Sleep Mode: Deep sleep when ever possible. •  Partner pairing is dropped at power off or un-pairing by master.  8.2 Configuration Command Set-up & Procedures   PC interface: If you wish to connect the module to a PC’s comm. port it is necessary to include a level shifter between the module and the PC. A recommended interface IC would be the MAX3232 RS232 driver IC (or equiv.) and a 3.3 Volt voltage regulator.
    ZBA, Inc. Please contact ZBA for details on purchasing a development board to interface the module to the PC.  Microcontroller Interface:    The UART of the Bluetooth module can directly connect to the microprocessors UART. The Microprocessor must have an I/O that will operate from 0 to 3.3 Volts or the appropriate level shifter circuitry must be used as to not overstress the I/O of either device.  Please note. The modules will only response the host set-up commands after the module has entered the command mode. For module to enter in the command mode, the host must send a single character ESC <0x1b> within 5 second after the unit has been powered on.    If the ESC character is not sent within the specified 5 second window then the module will automatically enter the SPP mode and any information sent to the UART will be treated as data to be transmitted over a Bluetooth link.    Note: All Commands except the first <ESC> command contain a suffix of <CR><LF>.    8.2.1    Entering the Set-up Mode Command Response Parameter ESC <CR> OPEN:num<CR><LF> Num= 0: device is not paired Num= 1 Device is currently paired     8.2.2    Testing the Communication Link Command Response Parameter AT OK  None     8.2.3  Command list Command Response Parameter ATZ?

The drop pair function occurs when the module is power-off then back on or the master drops pairing. This will allow another master to commence a discovery process and connect to the module (slave) device. If the device is set-up as always paired then the module will only communicate with the specific master whose address it has been bonded to even after power off and power-on. This mode is useful for application where a cable replacement function is the required. To communicate to a different master the module must have the bonded address cleared.    This is accomplished by running the AT+CLEARADDR command.    8.2.17 Inquire Version Command Response Parameter AT+VERSION OK +VERSION<Para1> Para1 version # Note: This command will return the firmware version of the module. .      8.2.18  Inquired remote device  Address Command Response Parameter AT+INQ?

The module will remain bound to this address until the AT+CLEARADDR is run or the module is powered off and then back on again.  8.2.20  Inquired Device BD Address      Note: This command returns the (local) BT address of the module.     8.2.21 Software Reset Command Response Parameter AT+ RESTART  OK  None    8.2.22  Set/Inquire about Low power mode Command Response Parameter AT+LOWPOWER=<Para1> OK <Para1>: 0: low power disabled 1:Low power mode Enabled AT+ LOWPOWER?

The Device will sniff in order to maintain synchronization with the Master.  To save maximum power then it is possible to completely turn-off the power to the module. When operating in this mode the Master/ Slave must then proceed through the Discovery phase (consuming time and energy) before a connection can be re-established. This mode is
ZBA, Inc.   only recommended if there are very, very long periods of inactivity and the battery power is of the utmost concern.
ZBA, Inc.      10 Mounting recommendations For maximized performance please orient the device with the antenna as close to the outside of the housing as possible.    Best performance will occur if the underlying PCB does not have a ground plane under the area where the antenna is located.    The nearest ground plane should be at least 3mm away from any point on the antenna.
