Connecting from PC to Module 

To connect to the DVK-BT730 from the PC, open a second instance of Laird / EZURiO terminal using the 
outgoing computer COM port (COM43) noted in the previous step.  

In the example below, the first Laird / EZURiO Terminal is connected to the module (COM16) and the second 
Laird / EZURiO Terminal is connected to virtual COM 43 on the PC. When the second Laird / EZURiO terminal 
(COM43) is opened, the connection is made and you should see a RING message followed by a CONNECT 
message from the module (

Figure 10

). 

The 12 characters following the RING and CONNECT messages are the Bluetooth address of the remote 
device. The four characters following the BT address indicate the UUID, where 1101 is serial port profile.
