    support.

connect <*BDADDR*> [*PSM*]
    Connect the local device to the remote Bluetooth device on the specified
    *PSM* number. If no *PSM* is specified,  it will use the SDP to retrieve
    it from the remote device.

    Release a connection to the specific device. If no *BDADDR* is given and
    only one device is connected this will be released.

loopback <*BDADDR*> [*PSM*]

    command will not provide a CAPI controller, because it is only for
    testing the CAPI Message Transport Protocol.
