• Press the function key of the adapter for at least 6 seconds. After the first 3 seconds You will
observe that the adapter switches on (green LED is flashing).
• Do not release the button, keep it pressed for another 3 seconds. Finally You will see an
alternating flashing of the red and green LED's.
Now Your adapter has entered the pairing mode and is searching for other Bluetooth devices nearby, like Your
headset. You will have about 45 seconds time to start the appropriate pairing procedure at the Headset, too.
Starting Pairing Mode of Headset or other device (like GPS Navigator)
The pairing mode of the Headset is described in the user manual of Your headset. Please follow the user
instructions. Most headsets show the pairing mode by a faster flashing of LED's. As soon as both devices
have found each other, the fast flashing will stop. Both systems remain automatically in their standby modes.
Your BPA 200 comes already with our unique software, which allows pairing with all known Bluetooth Headset
models under the pairing PIN codes 1234, 1111 or 0000 as well. The PIN code is automatically adopted.
Some Headsets (like the VEMAR Bluetooth motor bike helmet) may use key functions different from the
standard Bluetooth headset protocol. In such cases it is possible to start and to stop the communication link
at the BPA 200 instead at the headset. Just press the small knob at the BPA 200 for about ½ second to start
or to stop communication. If You should combine the adapter with a Navigator like Garmin ZUMO, the
navigator may require a slightly different method. Start the pairing process at the navigator, which will treat
the adaptor as a "mobile phone" and will ask for the PIN code. In that case enter 1234.
the radio too loud, this may provide distortion
•
To talk via radio press the PTT key (the large button in the middle of Your Bluetooth-Adapter) and talk
via Your headset
•
To receive again, You release the PTT key again. Please do not switch anything at the headset side!
•
If You do not want to listen any more to Your radio channel, You should disconnect the connection
from the headset side only (Talk or Call button). The adapter at the radio side will then
automatically switch back to standby mode.
•
Please switch both devices completely off, when You do not need them.
Important notes explaining different characteristics of radio and cellular phone
When using cellular phones, You only need to use the Talk/Call button of Your headset when You start a
phone call or answer a phone call. In receive mode of a two-way-radio, You must ensure, that at any time
incoming audio from other stations can be transmitted to the headset side. So the headset side must always
remain switched into Talk/Call mode, or you cannot hear what happens on the radio channel!
Connecting the 2 way Radio and starting Conversation Mode
•
Connect the radio cable to the 2 way radio's 2.5mm or 2.5/3.5 mm
mic/earphone socket. Switch radio on and adjust to medium volume. Please
avoid to place the adapter too near to the radio's antenna!
•
After pairing the adapter is in standby mode (green LED is flashing every 2
seconds).
•
Switch the headset from standby mode to "Call" or "Talk". In the user manual
this is described as starting a phone conversation. In most cases You will find
a "Talk" button.
•
Starting and stopping the communication link will be done at the headset side.
As long as You need the radio communication (including the receive periods!)
the headset must stay in the „Talk" or „Call" position, whatever the user manual
describes. Please note that the user manual describes telephone conversation
and not a 2-way radio conversation.
•
Start the connection to Your 2-way radio by using the Talk / Call button of the
wireless headset. It will always take a small moment, until You can see that the
communication link is established. You will see the green LED on the adapter
side permanently on. This demonstrates, that connection is successful
•
Adjust the headset volume at first to minimum to avoid any risk of acoustical
shock. Open the squelch of the radio for testing (or press the monitor button).
You will hear the white noise from the 2 way radio. You may now adjust the
volume at the headset according to Your needs. Do not adjust the volume of
