What is SPP?
This profile emulates a serial cable to provide a simple
substitute for existing RS-232 connections, including the familiar
control signals.
SPP operates in two ways:
1. In a "master" role - the device connects to another device
2. In a "slave" role - the device is connected to from another
device
