DIP Switches
Switches 1-3
DIP Switches 1, 2, and 3 are used to configure the baud rate.
NOTE: Most computer serial ports only support baud rate up to
115200. For higher baud rates, you may need to install a
high-speed serial card in your computer. In addition, if you need
to set a lower baud rate for your application, see the Advanced
Configuration section in the User manual.

Master Mode
If you are interconnecting two IOGEAR Bluetooth adapters,
you must set one of them to master and the other to slave.
Slave Mode
Keep in mind that Bluetooth software applications (like
Widcomm) will only be able to discover and connect to slave
devices.
Therefore, if you are connecting this unit to a serial device to
be accessed by a Bluetooth-enabled PC/PDA at the other
end, make sure to set the IOGEAR Bluetooth serial adapter to
slave mode.
