PAIRING THE HEADSET WITH A BlueLink ADAPTER OR CELLULAR TELEPHONE
Before you can use the BlueLink Muff Headset,
it must be paired with the BlueLink BT
adapter and/or cellular telephone that you wish
to use.
To pair the Headset with a BlueLink BT radio adapter:
1. Begin by first making sure that the Headset, BlueLink radio adapter, and the two-way radio the
adapter is connected to are all powered off. You should also power off any nearby BT devices.
2. Place the BlueLink radio adapter into pairing mode by following the instructions that were provided with
that device. On most BlueLink adapters this is done by pressing and holding the PTT/Multifunction button
on the adapter while turning the two-way radio on. Continue to hold the button down until the LED
indicator on the adapter shows two blue flashes every second.
3. Press and hold down the Power Button on the BlueLink Muff Headset for five seconds, until the LED on the
Headset flashes RED-BLUE-RED-BLUE continuously in sequence. The Headset is now in pairing mode.
4. After a few seconds, the two devices should synch to one another. Once the Headset and BlueLink radio
adapter are paired with each other the status LED on the adapter will show a constant blue light for three
seconds. The LEDs on both the adapter and Headset will then show one blue flash every few seconds.
5. If the BlueLink radio adapter does not detect the Headset within 60 seconds of being put into pairing mode, the
adapter will exit the pairing mode and resume normal operation without synching to the .
6. Once successfully paired, you will be able to operate your 2-way radio using the BlueLink Muff Headset.
To pair the Muff Headset with a cellular telephone:
The BlueLink headset is capable of working with a BT-enabled cellular telephone.
1. When pairing the Headset with a cellular phone, first make sure that the headset and all other nearby BT
devices are powered off before beginning.
2. Press and hold down the Power Button on the headset for five seconds, until the LED on the adapter flashes
RED-BLUE-RED-BLUE continuously in sequence. The headset Headset is now in pairing mode.
3. Activate the BT feature on your phone.
4. Activate the “scan/discover new BT devices” feature on the phone. The exact steps needed to do this will
vary depending on the brand/model of phone you are using.
5. Select the Headset from the list of BT devices shown on your phone. If the phone asks for a passcode,
enter “0000”. The phone may also prompt you to confirm the connection.
6. After a few seconds, the two devices should synch to one another. Once the BlueLink Headset and phone
are paired with each other, the status LED on the microphone will revert back to a single blue flash every
few seconds.
7. Once successfully paired, you will be able to make and receive telephone calls using the Headset.
