The TCB can communicate wirelessly with your computer if you attach a Bluetooth device to the Serial 1 port. All operations you can do through the USB port, you can also do over Bluetooth - updating settings, viewing debug messages, flashing new firmware, even radio setup. Remember to set Dipswitch #5 to the Off position, this tells the TCB to communicate over the Serial 1 port instead of the USB port. | The TCB can communicate wirelessly with your computer if you attach a Bluetooth device to the Serial 1 port.

Dipswitch #5 on the TCB is used to determine which serial port the TCB will communicate to the computer with. If Dipswitch #5 is On, the TCB will communicate via the **USB** port. If it is Off the TCB will communicate over the **Serial 1** port. The Bluetooth adapter will be plugged into the **Serial 1** connector, so in this case we want to make sure Dipswitch #5 is in the Off position. | Dipswitch #5 on the TCB is used to determine which serial port the TCB will communicate to the computer with.
