Tutorial: How to use HC-06 Bluetooth V2.0 Module

The HC-06 module is a simple Bluetooth device compatible with Arduino that allows establishing wireless serial connections between devices. Ideal for beginners, it facilitates remote control of electronic projects.

What you need

• Arduino Uno or similar
• USB A-MicroB cable
• Soldering iron

Steps

1. Connect the VCC of the HC-06 module to the 3.3V of the Arduino
2. Connect the GND of the module to GND of Arduino
3. Connect the TX of the module to the RX of Arduino (through pull-down resistor or transformer to protect the pins)
4. Connect the RX of the module to the TX of Arduino (through pull-down resistor or transformer to protect the pins)
5. Connect the VCC pin of the module to the 5V output of the Arduino
6. Verify the connection through serial monitor
7. Install the SoftwareSerial library (if necessary)
8. Write and upload the Arduino sketch

Example code

// Collega TX del modulo a RX di Arduino (digitale pin 10)
// Collega RX del modulo a TX di Arduino (digitale pin 11)
SoftwareSerial bt(10, 11); // RX | TX
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  bt.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
  if(bt.available())
    Serial.write(bt.read());
}

Mini project

Create a remote alarm system that sends a notification via Bluetooth when activated.

Common mistakes
