Blue SMIRF Gold

Hey, I am looking for some tips on getting a SMIRF up and running for serial cable replacement. I am running a BrainSteam GP2.0 from Acroname, and while I have gotten my SMIRF recognized and connected to windows, there seems to be no information passed through the bluetooth module. My wiring is tx->rx, rx->tx, vcc->vcc-, gnd->gnd. Is there something I need to do to start my SMIRF acting as a serial cable replacement??
