Pairing Devices to PSA5BT1E 

 

The PSA5BT1E will allow as many pairings as you require. Depending on your device you may pair it to 
multiple PSA5BT1Es  
 
Pairing does not mean that the devices are connected.  These are two different operations. 

Pairing means the handheld device is ALLOWED to communicate with a PSA5BT1E and the PSA5BT1E 
will accept a request to connect from the handheld. 
Connected means the device is connected and able to communicate via a PSA5BT1E. 
 

This is a general guideline depending on your hand-held or tablet.  The use case for pairing is prescribed 
by your operating system.   The PSA5BT1E is compatible with most Android 4+ and Windows 8.1 devices.   
 
The device being paired must be in proximity of the adapter.  Ensure that you are within at least 10 feet 
of proximity to the adapter.
