Operation and Frequently Asked Questions
■
What is the Industry Standard Range for Bluetooth
®
Wireless Technology?
The industry standard range for Bluetooth wireless technology is 30 feet
(10 meters). The radio will loose its pairing with the mobile phone if the
mobile phone and the radio are separated farther than this. The radio will
automatically reconnect with the mobile phone when the user comes back into
range.
■
How many phones can the radio pair with?
The radio can only be paired to one mobile phone at a time. This is the standard
operation for any Bluetooth headset or in-car Bluetooth system.
■
Do I need to have my mobile phone with me?
Yes, the phone call is actually completed through your mobile phone and your
mobile phone operator/carrier. The mobile phone must be with the 30 feet
(10 meters) range of the radio. The radio does not increase the offshore
range of your mobile phone.
■
Can I use a standard Bluetooth
®
headset with this radio?
No, the radio is using the headset profile of the Bluetooth specification to pair with
your mobile phone. It cannot pair to another Bluetooth headset.
■
Can I use this unit as a speakerphone or hands-free device?
Turning on VOX allows you to use the radio without pressing the PTT
(Push to Talk) button. The radio will still need to be operated in a face held position
with the microphone close to the mouth. This radio uses a noise canceling
microphone, and it will not operate well from the belt clip or another hands-free
position.
