Because it is seen as a PC's serial port, you can use it in your own programs, to communicate in a simple way with the BLE type devices e.g. iNode. To control BLE devices it uses a basic set of HCI commands HEX-encoded transmitted character strings.

Serial Transceiver USB – instruction manual ELSAT s.c. Data sent over the UART is HCI frames HEX-encoded (for one byte there are two ASCII characters). At the end of the data being transmitted is always 0x0d, 0x0a. In the case of loss of synchronization on the HCI frame level, you can retrieve it by sending 0x0d, 0x0a.

UART. It only broadcasts BLE advertisement frames for 60 seconds after pressing the button twice. In UART_SERVICE_MODE_SLOW_ADVERTISING, which in iNode Setup.exe is called as standby mode the module broadcasts BLE advertisement frames all the time. In this mode may not be possible to send BLE scan HCI command.
