We have all been there, and with BT pins it's often one of a few defaults (0000, 1234, 3333, 4444, 6666 or 5678) so it's not as obvious as you may have thought.

As Neil said, there are no stupid questions:) We are all here to help basic or advanced problems/questions etc.

Cheers guys. I've said it before and ill say it again. This has to be the best community I've ever been involved in. Thanks. Incidentally is there a way to make it connect via USB on Ubuntu? Thinking of moving to Linux

Connection via USB yes. Change the BT module on the EZ-B for a USB TTL one. A simple swap.

Connecting to Ubuntu, you will need to use the SDK, there is no simple solution since ARC is Windows only. There has been success with Linux on the OpenBot though (search openbot in the forum).

or make a virtual machine to host windows in linux

I've never seen the advantage of changing from Windows to Linux only to run a virtual machine with Windows to run a Windows application on a machine that was originally running said application within Windows...:P
