Using the G1 SCBA and Harris XL-185P | XL-200P Radio 

 

 

Confirm that the G1 SCBA, and Radio, are paired together:  Radio Tag has been applied (or applied previously and pair is saved) 

Step 1.

 

  

Turn on the Harris Radio using volume knob.  

 

Step 2.

 

 

Don the G1 SCBA and G1 Facepiece. 

 

Step 3.

 

 

Turn on the G1 SCBA via pressurization. 

 

The G1 SCBA will try to establish a Bluetooth connection to the 

currently 

paired radio

 for up to 8 minutes.   

 

When found, it will quickly connect and disconnect, (and is now ready to 

automatically activate when breathing.) 

If the connection is not established, the pairing process described in the 

previous section should be repeated.

 

 

Step 4.

 

 

Begin breathing (with the regulator attached) and the radio and SCBA will 

connect automatically (approx. 20 seconds). 

 

All SCBA voice communication will now go from the SCBA through the portable radio.

 

 

 

 

Use Notes & Tips: 

 

Turn on the Harris radio prior to the G1 SCBA. 

 

If the regulator is shut off, the G1 SCBA will not remain connected to the radio, and the radio is available for 

non-Bluetooth use.  The G1 SCBA will automatically re-connect to the Harris radio when breathing on the G1 

regulator. 

 

Verify both the incoming and outgoing audio functionality after the Bluetooth wireless connection is established.
