Using your headset with two devices simultaneously

mode. Multipoint mode helps you manage two connections at the same time. For
example, if you connect your headset with two phones, you can receive calls from
both phones without having to disconnect and reconnect.
Singlepoint mode is enabled by default. If you want to use your headset with two
devices at the same time, you should switch to Multipoint mode manually.
You can only connect to a maximum of two devices in Multipoint mode. If you pair the headset
with a third device, the first paired device gets disconnected.
