PRYME PRYMEBLU BT-PTT2-V User manual

STEP ONE: Charging the Push-to-Talk
The BT-PTT2-V has an internal Lithium Ion rechargeable battery pack which must be charged prior to
operation, and must be recharged regularly. A fully charged battery will provide more than 12 hours of
operation before needing to be recharged. However, operating time can vary depending on usage and
the condition of the battery pack. Recharge the battery regularly.
To charge the Push-to-Talk:
1. Ensure the device is turned off using the power button.
2. Plug the USB port of the BT-PTT2-V into any powered USB outlet, such as the USB port on a computer
or into the optional AC wall charger. You will need to first remove the protective rubber cover. (To
prevent dust and moisture from damaging your Push-to-Talk, always ensure this cover is in place when
you are not charging.)
3. Once the charging process has begun, the LED indicator on the bottom of the Push-to-Talk will show
a constant blue light.
4. When the device is done charging the LED will turn off. Typical charge time is approximately 4.5
hours. Actual charge time will vary depending on several factors including the battery’s charge state,
condition, and age.
5. Disconnect the charger from the adapter when charging is completed.
Charging Cautions
- Do not use the device with a charger that appears to be damaged.
- Do not tamper with or modify the PTT or charger.
- Always turn the Push-to-Talk off when charging.

The BT-PTT2-V Push-to-Talk is designed to work with smartphones running the Android operating
system. Prior to normal operation, the phone and Push-to-Talk must be paired together using the
following process:
1. Activate the pairing mode on the Push-to-Talk by holding down the PTT button while turning the
device on. Continue to hold down the PTT button until the status LED on the BT-PTT2-V shows two
blue flashes every second.
2. On your phone, go to Settings > Bluetooth. Move the Bluetooth slider to turn the phone's Bluetooth
radio on.
3. Select “Search for Devices” from the phone’s Bluetooth menu. The phone will scan for nearby
Bluetooth devices and a list showing the names of nearby Bluetooth devices will be shown on the
screen.
4. Choose “PTT-220” from the list.
5. Keep the phone and Push-to-Talk near each other and wait a few seconds. The devices will pair to
each other.
Reconnecting a Previously Paired Push-to-Talk and Phone
Once the BT-PTT2-V and phone have been successfully paired together, both devices will remember
that connection. They will reestablish their link whenever the Push-to-Talk and phone are both
powered on and in within range of each other, as long as the Bluetooth radio is enabled in the phone.
Re-establishing this connection can take 10-60 seconds.
In the event that the phone and Push-to-Talk do not automatically reestablish their link, simply press
the PTT button on the BT-PTT2-V to restore the connection.
