 <p>Bluetooth-based configuration provides a quick and easy way to navigate the serial menus as if you were connected over a USB cable. For regular users, this is often the preferred configuration method.</p>
-<p>The RTK device will be a discoverable Bluetooth device (both BT SPP and BLE are supported). For information about Bluetooth pairing, please see <a href="../connecting_bluetooth/">Connecting Bluetooth</a>.</p>
+<p>By default, the RTK device will broadcast over BLE and Bluetooth SPP simultaneously. Because BLE does not require pairing, it is what is recommended to connect to out of simplicity.

 <p>Most applications do not need to plug anything into the <strong>DATA</strong> port. Most users will get their NMEA position data over Bluetooth. However, this port can be useful for sending position data to an embedded microcontroller or single-board computer. The pinout is 3.3V / TX / RX / GND. <strong>3.3V</strong> is provided by this connector to power a remote device if needed. While the port is capable of sourcing up to 600mA, we do not recommend more than 300mA. This port should not be connected to a power source.</p>

 <p>The DATA port on the RTK Postcard is the USB C connector. This connection creates two serial ports. <strong>SERIAL-A</strong> is used for <a href="../configure_with_serial/">Serial Configuration</a>. <strong>SERIAL-B</strong> is connected to the DATA port of the LG290P to receive NMEA and other data directly. The DATA port is also used for <a href="../firmware_update_lg290p/">updating the firmware</a> on the LG290P.</p>
