# Remote Control

## Pinecil V2 only

Pinecil V2 has [_Bluetooth Low Energy_ module](https://ralim.github.io/IronOS/Bluetooth), which is supported by _IronOS_ since `2.21` release to control some of the settings using additional tools like [PineSAM](https://github.com/builder555/PineSAM) or [PineTool](https://github.com/lachlanbell/PineTool). In `2.21` and `2.22` releases the module was _on_ by default. However, **_Bluetooth_ is turned off in the settings by default in current `dev` builds and for the next releases** [due to security concerns](#1856).[^ble]

To enable _Bluetooth_ back:
- go to _Settings_ menu;
- press `-/B` button four times to scroll the menu for `Advanced settings`;
- press `+/A` button to open submenu;
- press `+/A` button to toggle/enable _Bluetooth_ feature;
- press `-/B` **and hold it** for just more than five seconds to exit from the _Settings_ menu.

[^ble]:
This is related only to situations when a user restores default settings using menu, or when _IronOS_ update is taking place on a new device or on a device with a previous firmware version.
