Bluetooth stereo headset / BSH-01
BSH-01 sounds
The BSH-01 also indicates events by tones in the earpiece.
Since you can't see the LEDs while wearing the BSH-01, the tones provide important feedback to the user.

Understanding pairing
Bluetooth devices are talkative things- and they all transmit on the same band, rapidly hopping from one frequency to
another, and really don't care who (if anyone) is talking at the same time. With a number of Bluetooth devices in the
vicinity, there is a lot of talking and hopping going on, and there needs to be a way of ensuring that devices connect
to (talk and listen) to the correct ones, and hop to the right frequency at the right time to keep talking. That is where
pairing comes in.
Pairing is the process of two devices identifying and agreeing to listen only to each other, so a 2-way link is
established between them. Once pairing is complete, the paired devices can communicate with each other while
ignoring any other Bluetooth devices in the vicinity. The pairing information is saved in memory, so if a paired device
is turned on or comes back in range, it is recognised and the connection with its mate is re-established.
Pairing is a fairly simple process- if you have a number of devices (A,B,C,D etc) and you want to establish a
connection between A and C, and B and D- you need to pair A and C (so A and C recognises and listen to each
other), and then pair B and D (so they recognise and listen to each other).
Pairing is done by putting both devices into pairing mode, so they can learn and save the identity of the other device.
It is simpler to have ONLY the devices to be paired powered up and in range, otherwise you may pair up with
some other device.
Multiple pairs
The BlueVirtu BSH-01 can pair with 3 other devices- typically another BSH-01 for intercom function; your mobile
phone for handsfree talking; and a BAT-01 for non-Bluetooth audio sources, phones and radio transceivers.
This makes pairing a little more time consuming and complicated than normal, but if you follow the steps in a careful
and logical manner, everything works out fine. If you get it wrong, you just do the pairing process again and it will
discard the previously paired device.
And you only have to do it once- unless you decide to change the phone, BSH-01 or BAT-01 you want to connect
with.
The BSH-01 has 3 memory 'slots' for paired devices- Device 1, Device 2, and Device 3. You can pair any Bluetooth
device to any slot, but it is best to follow the allocation table below so switching between devices and controlling them
via the buttons is simple and logical- in particular, so button C lets you easily jump between the currently selected
device and intercom mode, and back again.
Button
Device
Preferred Bluetooth devices
A
Device 1
BAT-01 for music, GPS navigator, radar detector, radio transceiver, mobile phone
B
Device 2
Bluetooth mobile phone
C
Device 3
BSH-01 for intercom
If you don't have the allocated Bluetooth device, leave the slot vacant, or you can pair with another type of
Bluetooth device in that slot.
