I have setup and paired my bluetooth mate silver successfully. I have also been able to put the mate in command mode and change settings like the name. The only problem is the modem will not connect to any device.
I have plugged the RX port into 3, TX into 2, GND into GND, VCC into 5V, and CTS into RTS.
Here is the code:

Example Bluetooth Serial Passthrough Sketch

This example sketch converts an RN-42 bluetooth module to
communicate at 9600 bps (from 115200), and passes any serial
data between Serial Monitor and bluetooth module.
*/
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
int bluetoothTx = 2; // TX-O pin of bluetooth mate, Arduino D2
int bluetoothRx = 3; // RX-I pin of bluetooth mate, Arduino D3
SoftwareSerial bluetooth(bluetoothTx, bluetoothRx);
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600); // Begin the serial monitor at 9600bps
bluetooth.begin(115200); // The Bluetooth Mate defaults to 115200bps
bluetooth.print("$"); // Print three times individually
bluetooth.print("$");
bluetooth.print("$"); // Enter command mode
delay(100); // Short delay, wait for the Mate to send back CMD
bluetooth.println("U,9600,N"); // Temporarily Change the baudrate to 9600, no parity
// 115200 can be too fast at times for NewSoftSerial to relay the data reliably
bluetooth.begin(9600); // Start bluetooth serial at 9600
}
void loop()
{
if(bluetooth.available()) // If the bluetooth sent any characters
{
// Send any characters the bluetooth prints to the serial monitor
Serial.print((char)bluetooth.read());
}
if(Serial.available()) // If stuff was typed in the serial monitor
{
// Send any characters the Serial monitor prints to the bluetooth
bluetooth.print((char)Serial.read());
}
// and loop forever and ever!
}
Any help would be appreciated.
