i have two BlueSMiRF silver modules and i should get a bluetooth communication between my 2 arduinos, for example an arduino send a message to the other using bluetooth and after this one send a message to the other one. ok do you understand my project? (maybe my english is not perfect, sorry i'm italian)
i know that i should use TX and RX and the serial communication to control them using an arduino, but now my problem is that i can't understand what i have to do to set a module as master and the other one as slave 
and how can i associate these modules together?
is there anyone that have already done something similar?
help me please
thanks in advance!

Looks like someone figured this out: http://phillipecantin.blogspot.com/2012/01/arduino-bluetooth-link.html

If you look at the example code for the master, it appears that you need to specify the MAC address of the slave with the "C" command.

I think the default mode is slave, so only the master would need to be told which mode to use, but I am not sure about that.  Hope that helps!
