Connecting to a Bluetooth Device

When you power up the BlueKeeper, the blue status LED is not lit
as the unit waits for a command. Establishing a Bluetooth connec-
tion varies with different cell phones. On your phone, find and select
the option to set up a connection. Press and hold the Call/Pair but-
ton on your BlueKeeper for a full 3 seconds and release. The blue
LED will flash rapidly, about every 100 ms, as BlueKeeper enters
Pairing Mode.

Now go to your Bluetooth device and search for Bluetooth connec-
tions. If this is the first time you have paired with this device, select
the option to add an audio device. When the cell phone has found
the new device, select from the list the device ID of "JKBKxxxx"
where the “xxxx” corresponds to the last 4 digits of the unit’s serial
number. Enter “Yes” when asked to Bond with this device. Enter the
pin number as "0000".

The BlueKeeper can maintain up to 16 devices in its connection
history to make reconnecting to a previously used device simpler
and quicker by entering Idle Mode.

Tech Note: There is a difference between “Pairing Mode” and “Idle

Mode”. The very first time you connect to a new device
you must be in Pairing Mode. When you press the Call/
Pair button for less than 1 second then release it, the
blue LED will come on steady for a moment, then it will
flash at a rate of 2 seconds off and 200 ms on. This first
stage is Idle Mode.

Holding the Call/Pair button in for 3 to 10 seconds be-
fore release will activate pairing mode. In pairing mode
the LED flashes very rapidly, about every 100 ms. Once
in pairing mode, any Bluetooth enabled device within
range can pair with BlueKeeper. After pairing is com-
plete, the connection to that device is secure.

After pairing to your cell phone, BlueKeeper is ready to take calls.
To place an outgoing call, dial the number on your cell phone, and
the call will be active on BlueKeeper. To redial the last number, just
press the Call button on BlueKeeper. To answer an incoming call,
press the Call button on BlueKeeper. If you do not hear your cell
phone ring, you may need to check the Bluetooth headset settings
on your phone. The phone may send a beep to your headphone
instead of ringing to indicate an incoming call. When your call is
completed, press the Drop button on BlueKeeper.
