Pairing a Headset by VoiceConsole Pairing
The VoiceConsole pairing method should only be used if the device/headset pairing will be performed
once and never changed. While manual pairing can also result in this permanent pairing, VoiceConsole
eliminates the device inquiry step and begins paging immediately for the Bluetooth address.
Prerequisites:
• The headset is powered off.
• The device is not in a charger, and there is no wired headset connected to it.
• The device is in sleep mode — not in use running an application.
• The device is Bluetooth ready with Bluetooth connection features enabled.
1.
In VoiceConsole, click Devices and select the device for the pairing.
2.
In Device Actions, select the actions for pairing to a peripheral, and complete the pairing. See
VoiceConsole Online Help for detailed instructions.
The pairing can be performed with the device powered off or while the device is running an application.
When the device powers up or goes into sleep mode, the paging process begins.
3. Place the headset in pairing mode.
• On an SRX headset: press and hold the Plus (+) and Minus (-) buttons for four seconds.
• On an SRX2 headset: press the Power button to turn it on.
4. When the two connect, the headset will play ascending connect tones. The pairing confirmation step
is skipped because the pairing was specified by the user.
5. Press the Play/Pause button to begin working.
More about SRX-Series Pairing Modes
When a headset is in pairing mode it is ready to respond to any inquiries about its Bluetooth services.
The inquiring device uses this response to determine if it wants to pair with the headset. Because the
device is the initiator and the headset is the acceptor, a user facilitates the pairing process by putting
the headset into pairing mode before initiating the connection from the device.
SRX-Series headsets support two pairing modes.
•
Low Power Pairing Mode
Low power pairing mode is the default pairing mode for SRX-Series headsets. In this mode, a headset
will answer a Bluetooth device inquiry with a very low power response that transmits within a small
area (a few feet or so, depending on the receiving capabilities of the inquiring device).
Limiting the wireless transmission helps to avoid an unwanted cross pairing (a pairing with a Bluetooth
address other than the target) by forcing the headset to be in close proximity to the device.
•
High Power Pairing Mode
High power pairing mode allows the headset and device to be separated by more distance because
the headset’s response to inquiries is a wider transmission.
Vocollect recommends using high power pairing only if low power pairing fails. Use this mode with
care: While high power pairing mode makes it more likely that the connection will succeed, it also
increases the likelihood of cross pairing.
If the configuration parameter SrxAutoPairEnable is enabled and the configuration parameter
SrxHighPowerPairingDelaySeconds is set to 0, headsets will skip lower power pairing mode and
enter high power mode.
See Configuration Parameters for SRX-Series Headsets for more details.
