PRYME NANO-99A
Audio Accessory Kit with “SMART” PTT Button
for Smartphones and Tablets
The NANO is a revolutionary wired microphone kit with a removable earphone, for use
with Smart Devices running many different Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) apps.
Version 1.00 AUGUST 2018
BATTERY LIFE
The NANO uses one CR2032 coin cell type battery. A single battery can provide up to two full years or more of
operating time. However, operating time can vary depending on the usage cycle and the age and condition
of the battery. At the end of the battery's lifetime, it is necessary to replace the battery with a new one.
NOTE: The NANO has a sleep mode which is used to preserve battery life. This sleep mode will engage When
the power switch is turned to the "ON" position and a long period of time goes by without the Smart PTT
button being pressed. While sleeping, the power consumption of the NANO is greatly reduced. To preserve
battery life even longer, it is recommended that you turn the NANO’s power switch to the off position when
you are not using it.
The battery is internal, but can be replaced using only a jeweler's/eyeglass
screwdriver. To change the battery:
1. Remove the 2 small Phillips head screws on the rear of the NANO using
a jeweler's/eyeglass screwdriver. Separate the two halves of the housing.
2. Locate the remove the 2 small Philips head screws
which secure the PC Board of the NANO inside the housing.
3. Carefully remove the PCB from the housing and flip
it over to reveal the battery holder. Be careful not to
damage the wire leads that connect the PCB to the
microphone element or cabling.
4. Remove the old battery from the battery holder. A ball point pen can be used
to push the battery out of the holder if needed.
5. Insert a new CR2032 3-volt coin cell battery into the battery holder, observing
proper polarity.
The positive side of the battery (marked with a “+” sign) should face away from
the circuit board.
6. Reseat the PCB and reinstall the 2 Phillips screws. Take care not to crimp any
of the wires between the PCB and housing.
7. Reseat the two halves of the housing and reinstall the 2 screws to secure it in place.
NOTE: If you are unable to perform the battery replacement yourself, battery replacement
service is available from PRYME for a flat fee. Contact PRYME Support for further details.
BUILT-IN MICROPHONE
When using the NANO with a listen-only earphonem, this microphone is used for making
PTT Over Cellular (PoC) transmissions and phone calls. For best results, the microphone
should be positioned a maximum of 6-9” away from the user’s mouth. (Note, if an
accessory with a microphone is connected to the NANO, the accessory microphone will
be used instead.)
CLOTHING CLIP
The alligator-type clip secures the
NANO to the lapel of the user’s
clothing during use. The clip can be
rotated to allow the microphone to
be better positioned.
AUDIO ACCESSORY JACK
Allows the connection of an earphone or
an Apple®-compatible wired audio
accessory that contains both an
earphone(s) and a built-in microphone.
(Note that the plug on the audio
accessory must use the CTIA or Apple
iPhone standard. For more compatibility
information see pg 5.) Audio Accessory

cause your PTT Over Cellular (POC)
app to transmit a message. Release
the button when done speaking.
POWER SWITCH
