BLUETOOTH FUNCTIONALITY
Pairing-Procedure
If.there.is.any.paired.Bluetooth.Headset.nearby.(range.up.to.some.meters),.it.
can.be.connected.with.the.radio.
Before.first.connection,.both.units.(radio.and.headset).must.be.paired.toge-
ther,.because.both.must.know.that.they.„belong“.to.each.other..This.is.impor-
tant,.because.you.certainly.do.not.wish.that.your.neighbor.can.use.your.radio.
without.your.agreement!
How to perform the Pairing Process: Please.study.the.user.instructions.for.
your.headset..Although.the.procedure.is.similar.among.many.Bluetooth.sets,.
we.cannot.describe.all.these.procedures.here..Please.study.the.chapter.about.
pairing with a mobile phone,.the.procedure.to.pair.it.with.the.G8E-BT.is.the.
same!.Nearly.all.headsets.indicate.the.pairing.process.by.rapid.flashing.of.the.
LED’s.(green-red.or.blue.red,.depending.on.the.model).
Before.pairing,.the.Bluetooth.function.on.G8E-BT.must.be.disabled,.so.switch.
off.the.radio..
Then,.turn.it.on.again.while.keeping.the. BT.button.pressed..To.confirm.the.
pairing,.the.display.will.show.‘ bt PA’.and.‘PA’.will.blink..
You.will.have.about.1.minute.time.to.start.the.same.procedure.with.Your.he-
adset.(read.carefully.the.instructions.of.your.headset)..When.both.units.are.
paired,.the.display.will.show.‘ BT’.steady..From.this.moment,.both.devices.are.
paired.and.they.will.identify.each.other.even.though.they.have.been.switched.
off;.so,.there’s.no.need.to.repeat.the.pairing.procedure.
Info: Automatic PIN Code transfer
If.You.have.already.paired.a.BT.device.with.a.mobile.phone,.you.will.have.
learned.to.enter.the.4.digit.PIN.code.for.the.headset.into.the.mobile.phone..
Since.the.G8E-BT.has.no.keyboard,.this.procedure.is.automatically.done.by.
the.Bluetooth.chipset.in.Your.radio..The.PIN.code.in.this.case.is.‘0000’..Verify.
that.the.your.Bluetooth.headset.has.the.same.PIN.code..
Devices with different PIN codes cannot be paired to G8E-BT.
Sometimes.you.can’t.pair.the.devices.at.the.first.trial;.try.till.you.succeed.and.
always.follow.the.above.listed.steps..
Talk connection on/off
When.the.radio.is.switched.on,.the.built-in.Bluetooth.module.is.disabled.(‘ BT’.
is.not.displayed)..
To.activate.the.Bluetooth.communication.press.the.‘ BT’.button.for.4.seconds:.
‘ BT’.blinks.for.1.second.on.the.display.and.then.becomes.steady..
Now.you.can.establish.Bluetooth.communications..
Usually.the.communication.link.is.automatically.activated.because.the.units/
headsets.have.been.previously.paired;.but.you.can.also.enable/disable.the.
communication.link.by.pushing.the. Talk/Start button.on.the.Bluetooth headset
(if you use intercom systems for motorbikes, you have to press the Talk/Start
button.used.for.the.pairing.procedure)..
To. disable. the. Bluetooth. communication. on. the. radio. without. turning. it. off,.
press.the.‘ BT’.button.for.4.seconds.till.‘BT’.disappears.from.the.display.
note:
.› Bluetooth. connections. to. transceivers. are. different. from. cellular. phone.
connections..In.2-way.radio.communications.the.Bluetooth.link.is.always.
active:.the.radio.must.be.always.tuned.on.the.selected.channel,.otherwise.
you.wouldn’t.hear.the.conversations!.
.› In.2.way.radio.systems.the.headset.remains.permanently.connected.with.
the. radio. and. cannot be connected with any other Bluetooth audio
source at the same time...
.› When.the.Bluetooth.connection.of.the.radio.is.active.(‘BT’.steady.on.the.
display),. the. internal. mike. and. speaker. are. disabled..The. PTT. button. of.
the. radio. or. the. wired. PTT. connected. to. MIC. jack. can. operate. with. the.
Bluetooth.connection.
Activating and deactivating the Bluetooth connection
You. can. activate. or. deactivate. the. communication. link. any. time. by. short.
pressing. the. Start. /. Stop. key. on. the. headset. or. the. Bluetooth. key. of. the.
G8E-BT.radio.
Activated: ‘BT’.steady.on.the.display; deactivated: ‘BT’.disappeared.
Switching off the Bluetooth module
If.you.do.not.use.the.Bluetooth.for.a.long.time,.you.can.switch.it.off.completely.
by.pushing.the. BT.button.for.4.seconds.till.‘BT’.disappears.from.the.display..
Note:.every-time.you.turn.on.the.radio,.the.Bluetooth.module.is.disabled.(‘BT’.
is.not.displayed)..
To.activate.it,.press.the.‘ BT’.button.of.the.radio.for.4.seconds..
Vox or manual PTT Operation?
G8E-BT.can.work.in.VOX.or.manual.PTT..You.can.choose.one.of.the.two.
options.also.when.you.operate.in.Bluetooth.mode..
Since.we.do.not.recommend.to.use.VOX.operation.on.the.motor.bike,.owing.
to.the.high.speed.and.to.the.wind.noise,.you’d.better.use.the.supplied.manual.
PTT.button..The.PTT.button.is.waterproof.and.can.be.mounted.with.velcro.
tape.on.the.steering.bar..
