Bluetooth Introduction
Bluetooth is a global wireless standard for enabling short-range wireless
connections. It is a simple and instant radio solution that allows different
devices to talk to one another. Bluetooth eliminates the need for
cables/wires/cords between devices such as mobile phones and headphones.
Bluetooth facilitates fast and secure transmissions of both voice and data
between devices even if they are not in line-of-sight. Most Bluetooth devices
are described as 'Class 2'. These are very low power and have a range of
about 10 meters. Some devices are Class 1. These have range comparable to
that of Wi-Fi and have a range up to 100 meters.
A limited, but growing number of devices use Bluetooth at present. Devices
that are starting to have Bluetooth connectivity built in include:
• Headsets
• Headphone
• Cell Phones
•PDAs
•Laptops
•Digital cameras and camcorders
•Printers
•Scanners
•Keyboards and Mice
•In-car handsfree kits
•GPS navigation receivers
•Home appliances (microwaves, washers, driers, refrigerators)
In addition, add on Bluetooth adapters are available for computers (i.e. with a
USB interface) and for PDAs.

Bluetooth Stereo Headset Kit
Thank you for choosing Bluetooth Stereo Headset Kit. It is unique and
different from most Bluetooth products in the market for its good integration of
AV and Headset Profiles. It is a multifunctional device that provides users
with dual capability for listening to music in a wireless mode as well as
answering the cell phone. While the phone rings, the conversation can be
transferred back and forth between the headset and the Bluetooth enabled
cell phone, even when the music is being streamed.
The music source for this headset can be any consumer device such as a
Portable MP3 Player, a Mobile Phone, a PC, a Music System, or an In-car
Entertainment System that is compliant with the Bluetooth specification
version 1.1 or 1.2 and is supporting the Advanced Audio Distribution Profile
(A2DP).
The headset can also be used with cell phones that are compliant with the
Bluetooth specification version 1.1 or 1.2 and it is supporting either the
Headset (HS) or Handsfree (HF) profiles.

How to Use
Bluetooth Stereo Headset performs well with the Bluetooth TX and can be
used to demonstrate the following usage scenarios:
zResponding to cell phone
Pick up / drop calls made to the headset from Bluetooth enabled cell
phones. Unlike the mono headsets, Stereo Headset can transfer
ring/voice to both your ears with two channels. In this scenario, the ability
of the headset to stream music is not utilized.
