Question Re: how to build a VEX programming module
u mean get external voltage source and connect it to pin 5 of the serial input to power the bluetooth module ? Or this pin is an output 5v pin which must be connected to the VDD pin of the bluetooth module ?
this is strange , because the bluetooth has it's voltage input pin which takes 3.3v so i don't think this 5v pin is for the module .

something else about RTS and CTS ... fowlerm posted : " The other pins on the Vex's serial port are control lines RTS and CTS "
so if pin 4 and pin 6 are not rts and cts , then what are they ? and where should i connect the rts and cts of my module ?

Note : i just want bluetooth for serial coms between a pc and the robot
