Ready2Talk HS BT2 User manual

HS BT2 Operation info
Thank you for purchasing the Ready2Talk HS BT2 Wireless Headset.
The HS BT2 is designed to be a comfortable yet durable Wireless Headset microphone offering up to
8 hrs. of talking time on a .5 - 4 hr. charge with a 0 ft. (10M) operating distance, just make sure
you have a clear line of sight with the antenna on the receiver Dongle.
Here is the quick operation and set up: (the Coles Notes version)
1. Connect the 4 pin plug on the Dongle to a Ready2Talk PA system that is turned on.
2. Charge the Headset with the USB to micro USB cable until the red LED on the Headset goes
out (generally .5 - 4 hrs.).
. Turn on the Headset slide switch and the green LED will come on, wait seconds or until the
big red button on the Dongle goes out, that means the headset is synced automatically.
4. Put the headset on, place the mic 1/2” to 1” away from your mouth and can start talking.
5. The rocker switch on the Dongle is a mute switch so you can turn off the mic for a private
conversation yet still keep the headset synced to the Dongle.
For a full explanation please read further.
Charging:
The first step is to charge your Wireless Headset using the included USB to Micro USB cable. Connect
the receiver dongle to the Ready2Talk PA system (don’t forget to turn the PA system on) then plug
the headset into the dongle using the USB cable OR… you can charge your Wireless Headset from any
USB device like your mobile phone charger, computer or any wall or car USB accessory charger.
(Note… some chargers will take longer than others)
You’ll know the headset is charging when the red LED on the headset lights up and it is fully charged
when the red LED goes out. Generally it takes .5 hrs. if the battery is fully drained and less time
when it has some charge left in it. There is no need to leave it plugged for longer as the internal
charging circuit will automatically stop when fully charged.
The telltale signs that your battery is getting low are;
•Less operating range
•Slightly distorted sound or your voice will start to cut out.
You’ll have a good idea because after 8 hrs. of continuous talking your voice will be slightly distorted
and cutting out too.
Be nice to your battery and charge when it needs to be and don’t bother charging when it’s not
required. Even though there is a charging protection circuit, it’s never good to keep feeding a battery
when it’s already full.

Connection and Operation:
Just plug the 4 pin mic plug on the dongle into the Ready2Talk PA system, you’ll notice the big red
button on the dongle glowing which shows that the power is on and the headset is not yet synced.
Turn on the slide switch at the end of the headset and the green LED will light up. Within seconds
the big red button on the dongle will turn off and the headset has now synced automatically, so start
talking and walk around. You are now free from wires!
The rocker switch on the dongle mutes the microphone for a private conversation. The blue LED
beside the rocker switch will be on when the mic is on and off when the mic is muted.
If you want to play music on your tours and have your MP player connected through the AUX input
socket on the front of the Ready2Talk PA system, when you have the mic turned on (blue LED on) the
music will automatically mute, when the rocker switch on the dongle is turned off (blue LED off) the
music will come back on automatically. Not sure exactly how to do this… then watch the
HS BT2 Video on our home page. www.ready2talkpa.com
Headset fit:
The headband is designed to rest over top of your ears and behind your head and should fit most
people comfortably while allowing you to wear a hat. If you find that it is too big or too tight, feel
free to bend or shape the metal headband to what feels most comfortable. The plastic part on the
headset will pivot (ratchet up or down) to make sure the mic is properly placed ½” (1.5cm) in front of
your mouth.
Pairing Re-coding a different Headset to the Dongle:
When you receive your HS BT2 the Headset and Dongle are pre-paired, but sometimes you might
want to use a different Headset with a different Dongle?
1. Locate the little black button on the inside of the headset close to the charging
2. Turn on the headset
. Make sure the dongle is plugged in and turned on so the big button is glowing red.
4. Push and hold the little button on the headset and the green power light will go out and the
red button on the dongle will glow
5. Push the red button on the dongle for about 4 seconds or until the red button comes on solid,
then immediately release both buttons
6. Wait about seconds and the green power light on the headset will flash and the red light will
flash as well
7. Once the dongle has found the new headset the red button will go out and it has found the
new headset. You are good to go
8. If the red light on the dongle doesn’t go out… repeat the process.
