ADVANCED FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
Multiple Device Pairing and Multipoint Mode
The B450-XT has pairing memory for up to eight (8) devices. The headset can also use Multipoint Mode,
which means that it can be connected to two Bluetooth devices at the same time. You do not have to do
anything to enable Multipoint Mode.
Using the B450-XT in Multipoint Mode
1. To use the headset in Multipoint Mode, first make sure the headset is paired with both your devices.
2. With both devices in range and with their Bluetooth enabled, turn the headset on.
3. As each Bluetooth device connects to the headset, you will hear the voice prompt, “Your headset is
connected.”
The B450-XT will monitor both phones and enable you to answer a call on either one using the headset.
If you are on a call and the other device receives a call, you will hear a notification in the headset.
Disabling and Re-enabling Multipoint Mode
Multipoint Mode can be disabled with the following process:
1. “Unpair” (Android) or “forget” (iOS) the B450-XT from your phone’s Bluetooth list.
2. Power on the headset.
3. Press and hold the Parrott Button, MFB and Volume Up buttons together for 6-7 seconds. The MFB LED
will flash blue twice, and the headset will enter pairing mode.
4. Re-pair the B450-XT to your device.
5. Multipoint Mode is disabled and the headset can only be used with one device at a time.
If you wish to re-enable Multipoint Mode, repeat the process above.
Proximity Pairing
Proximity Pairing is an alternative method of pairing where the headset initiates the pairing process
instead of your phone.
1. Make sure the headset is powered on and not connected to another device.
2. Set your phone so it is “discoverable, or visible to other devices.
3. Quickly press the MFB and the Volume Down button, if headset is not already in pair mode.
4. You should hear the voice prompt “pair mode” in the headset.
5. The headset lights should now be alternating red and blue.
6. The headset initiates pairing activity, and the incoming pairing request must be accepted on the phone.
NOTE: This may include entering the pin number “0000” (four zeros).
