The Bluetooth connection is encrypted and secured with a unique six digit pin that must be double confirmed on both
device and Bluetooth host at the time of pairing.
Discovery Mode
This device mode is used to enable a Bluetooth host to pair with the device for the first time or if a different Bluetooth host
was connected with the device previously.
NOTE: The device will automatically enter discovery mode for five minutes at device turn on if Bluetooth has been enabled.
Discovery mode will also be entered for 5 minutes following a disconnection.
To manually enter discovery mode:
1. Page down through the menu pages in Measurement Mode using the ▼ button until the Discovery Mode page is
displayed.
2. Press the ■ button to enter discovery mode.

Connecting the device to a Bluetooth host for the first time

devices are being paired.

Connecting the device to a Bluetooth host
If this was the last device connected to the Bluetooth host, the Bluetooth host can connect to the device whether or not the
device is in discovery mode as long as Bluetooth is enabled. The six digit code confirmation will not be displayed.
NOTE: The device will only recall the last Bluetooth host it was paired with. If connecting to another Bluetooth host, the
device must be placed into discovery mode to be detected.
Bump pairing the device to a Bluetooth host
This device has an integrated RFID chip to facilitate a faster Bluetooth pairing process with a Bluetooth host that supports a
RFID or NFC reader with appropriate software. Simply align the RFID or NFC reader of the Bluetooth host directly over the
MSA logo on the front of the device. The device and Bluetooth host should become paired and connected.
Disconnecting the device from a Bluetooth host
The device does not have a disconnect feature as this would be initiated by the Bluetooth host. Use the Bluetooth host
functions to purposefully disconnect the device from the Bluetooth host.
Device configuration over Bluetooth connection
The device has the ability to receive updates to device settings over the Bluetooth connection. The user must successfully
pair the device and Bluetooth host confirming that the six digit security code matches both on the device and the Bluetooth
host. After a configuration change has been initiated, the user must confirm the request on the device by pressing the ▲
button.
Evacuation alert over Bluetooth connection
The device has the ability to receive an evacuate message over the Bluetooth connection. The user must successfully pair
the device and Bluetooth host confirming that the six digit security code matches both on the device and the Bluetooth host.
Once connected, an evacuate message sent to the device will send the device into alarm while displaying EVACUATE on
the display. Press the ▲ button to silence the Evacuation alert and confirm the alert was received. Press the ▲button a
second time to reset the Evacuation alert once in a safe area.
