Thank you for purchasing an AirTurn BT200S
Bluetooth controller. We hope you enjoy many
years of use from it. From page turning, to effects
management and presentation control, the BT200S
provides a myriad of uses.
BEFORE TURNING ON YOUR BT200S
The BT200S works with most Bluetooth 4 devices. This
includes iPad 3 and later, iPhone 4S and later, and most
devices running Android 4.3 or later with Bluetooth 4.
Most PCs and Macs equipped with Bluetooth 4.x and HID
(keyboard) support are compatible. For older PCs you can
use Bluetooth 4.1 USB dongles that can connect to the
BT200S.
A compatible app is required. Apps are listed on the
AirTurn website: http://airturn.com/apps
There are three compatibility modes: AirTurn Direct, HID,
(keyboard), and MIDI. Not all compatible apps will
function in every mode. See the MODES section for
additional information.

BT200S CONTROLS
The BT200S series uses the same controls for both models, just
with 2 or 4 footswitches. The controls consist of a power button,
two LED indicators, and a power port for an external power
supply or the internal rechargeable battery. Switches are in
numerical order left to right, the function of each switch is
explained on page 10.
POWER
ON - Press and hold the Power Button for one second and the
LEDs flash.
The blue LED will begin to blink 2 times per second until pairing
is started.
OFF - Press and hold the Power Button on the BT200S until the red
and blue LEDs turn off.

CONNECTING AND PAIRING
Once the BT200S is selected for pairing, the blue LED will
blink 5 times per second until pairing is completed.
OPEN AND CLOSED PAIRING
The BT200S has the ability to pair to your tablet or computer two
different ways. We call them Open and Closed pairing. Open
pairing is the default method.
OPEN PAIRING
This is the new way in which BT200S devices pair and is the same
way that almost all Bluetooth devices pair. In Open Pairing you do
not need to delete the pairing to connect to another device so you
can easily connect your BT200S to your iPad, smartphone or
computer. In fact, you can connect up to 8 Bluetooth devices. (In
MODE 1 (AirDirect) you can pair to unlimited devices).
Bear in mind you can only be connected to one device at a time.
If two of your devices have Bluetooth turned on, you must turn
off the Bluetooth of the one you do not wish to connect to while
you connect to the other device. No reset is required with Open
Pairing.
If you connect to more than 8 devices, the next pairing will delete
the earliest pairing. If you delete or “forget” the pairing of the

7
BT200S on a device, restart the Bluetooth and attempt to re-pair
with the BT200S.
CLOSED PAIRING
This method locks one BT200S to one tablet, phone or computer.
Use this method if you only intend to be connected to one
tablet, phone or computer. Also, use this method if you are in an
ensemble with other players using AirTurn devices. It will ensure
that you don’t inadvertently connect to each other’s devices.
Pairing is required in all MODES.
RESET PAIRING
To delete all pairings, or if you would like to connect to another
device, or you are having connection problems, you can pair again
by removing all the existing pairing connections.
First, delete the pairing from the host device and turn off the
Bluetooth. Then, hold the power button on the BT200S for 6
seconds. The LEDs will turn off, but don’t release until they blink
3 more times. You are now ready to pair again.
SWITCHING BETWEEN PAIRING METHODS
You can easily switch between Open and Closed pairing methods.
With power turned off, hold down the MODE button while turning
the power on. You can also change the Pairing method using the
AirTurn Manager App.

PAIRING IN AIRDIRECT MODE 1
Note: This MODE is for AirDirect specific apps only. AirDirect
MODE was created to prevent conflicts with the virtual keyboard.

2. Be sure the BT200S is in MODE 1. (Hold down the
MODE button for 1 blink of the red light.)
3. Go to your app and find the Bluetooth setup screen.
4. Find the BT200S in the device list and tap on it.
5. If required, tap on the Pair button in the dialog box.
PAIRING IN MODE 2-6 (KEYBOARD/MOUSE)
Open your devices Bluetooth Setup dialog:
iOS – Select Settings > Bluetooth and turn on the Bluetooth if it is
off. When the BT200S is discovered, it will appear in the list of
devices. Tap on the selection. A dialog box will then appear. Tap
on Pair.
Android – Select Settings > Bluetooth, and turn it on if it is off.
Make sure your device is set to discoverable, then tap the SCAN

CHANGING THE MODE
1. Turn on the BT200S.
2. Press and hold the MODE button. The red LED will flash
once per second from1 to 7 flashes. The number
of flashes corresponds to the MODE number.
Be sure to count the flashes.
3. Release the MODE button following the number of
flashes that reflects the desired MODE. The blue and red
LED will flash together the number of times indicating
which MODE has been set.
Example: To set MODE 2, hold the MODE button for 2
flashes of the red LED, release, and both LEDs will flash 2
times to confirm the MODE 2 setting.
Note: Once the MODE has been set, it will remain the same
until it is changed following the above steps.
VIRTUAL KEYBOARD IN iOS
To turn on the virtual keyboard in iOS, put the cursor into a text
box and press the Power Button. Both LEDs will flash once to
signify that the button was pressed. The button will only work in
Modes 2-6. Virtual keyboard support for MODE 1 is automatic.
This is not available for Android except when using MODE 1.
