Functional Description
The PmodBT2 uses a standard 12-pin connection and communicates via UART. There is a secondary SPI header on
the board for updating the RN-42 firmware if needed.

Jumper Settings
The PmodBT2 has several modes available to the user via jumper settings. JP1 through JP4 provide various modes
of operation as indicated in Table 1 below. Each jumper is active when shorted. JP1 restores the device to factor
default settings after three transitions of the jumper setting (short-to-open or open-to-short). After the third
transition, the device returns to factor default except for the Bluetooth name. The other three jumpers, JP2-JP4,
only sample in the first 500 ms of operation to allow the pins that they tie to on the RN-42 module to serve a
separate purpose later in the modules operation. JP2 enables pairing with a special device class defined by the
user in software. This may be used so that the PmodBT2 operates as a substitute for an RS232 cable. JP3 enables
auto connect to a stored address defined by the user. Finally, JP4 chooses whether to operate at the stored baud
rate (115.2kbps default) or a baud rate of 9600 regardless of the software selected rate when shorted. For more
detailed information on jumper settings and functionality, refer to the RN-42 user manual.
