Does anyone know a way I can get Arduino to activate a switch when it sees the Bluetooth signal from my phone?
1. Connect BT with your UNO as per Fig-1.

Figure-1:
2. Complete the following sketch and then upload it.
#include<SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial SUART (10, 11);
void setup()
{
//write codes here as needed
}
void loop()
{
1. Place code to check that a character has arrived from Phone/BT.
2. When 7 characters are available, then save them in a null-character
terminated array.
3. Check that the received string matches with "closeK1".
4. If Step-3 is satisficed, turn on relay-K1/L connected with DPin-13.
}
3. Pair your Android Phone with BT.
4. Send "CloseK1" message from Phone.
5. Check that relay-K1 connected with DPin-13 is activated (L connected at DPin-13 is ON).
