serial port (COM port) corresponds to the one defined in the Bluetooth software settings on
the Bluetooth device of your PC. For details, refer to the PC component documentation
and "Set up a Bluetooth connection," p. 52.

3. Open the slide presentation, or start the application you want to control remotely from

your phone.
