Bluetooth
NOTICE: Bluetooth Audio and Object Push, Bluetooth Connectivity and Bluetooth Radio
Control are selling features.
There are three separate Bluetooth features available:
• Bluetooth Audio and Object Push - includes: Bluetooth Audio, Object Push Profile (OPP), Fast PTT,
and Indoor Location
• Bluetooth Connectivity - includes: Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP) and Bluetooth Dial Up
Networking (DUN)
• Bluetooth Radio Control - includes: Bluetooth Radio Control via AT commands
You can use Bluetooth to:
• Connect the radio with wireless accessories, for example a headset, which gives you a greater
freedom of movement and increases your work comfort. Additionally, wireless accessories allow
performing the same activities in several ways. For example, you can change the volume level
either in the headset or on the radio.
• Send and receive files via the Object Push Profile (OPP).
• Make your radio discoverable indoors to Bluetooth beacons.
• Allow radio collaboration with various BT sensors or data capture devices e.g. biometric sensor, bar
code scanner or firearm device.
• Increase connectivity by means of secure packet data services between the radio and a PDA
device or a Smartphone running appropriate applications.
• Enable radio control via a PDA device.
Depending on the hardware configuration, radios supports Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR, Bluetooth 4.0, and
Bluetooth Smart (BTLE). Secure Simple Pairing, one of its features, ensures high level of security while
pairing devices and thus protects you against recording and passive eavesdropping.
Bluetooth operating range is approximately 10 meters. The usable range may be reduced if you
connect the radio with devices that support more limited ranges or if physical obstacles such as walls
appear between devices.
One radio can be connected with up to seven devices at the same time.

Bluetooth Interactions
The following features and situations limit the use of Bluetooth:
Transmit Inhibit Mode (TXI), Repeater Mode
Bluetooth does not work in the Transmit Inhibit Mode nor in the Repeater Mode. When the radio
enters one of those modes while Bluetooth is enabled, all remote devices are disconnected and
Bluetooth is disabled. After leaving the TXI or the Repeater Mode, Bluetooth is enabled again (if it
was previously turned on).
Covert Mode
The radio cannot enter Discoverable Mode while in the Covert Mode (the Covert Mode has a higher
priority).
Wired Audio Accessories
Wired audio accessories have a higher priority than Bluetooth audio accessories. If both types of
devices are connected to the radio, it disconnects the Bluetooth audio device. When a wired audio
device is already connected to the radio, scanning for Bluetooth audio devices is disabled.
