Add Bluetooth Devices

Audio devices, such as headsets or PTT pods are added (and connected) by selecting Add Device
from the Bluetooth menu.
Sensor devices, such as barcode scanners or firearms devices, and devices used for radio control
must be added to the radio codeplug by the service provider before they can be used. Once the radio
is configured to use specific sensor devices, they can then be added in the same manner as audio
devices, for example; by selecting Add Device from the Bluetooth menu.
See Devices on page 89.

Bluetooth Smart Proximity Pairing
With the use of Proximity Pairing, you can instantly connect your radio with Bluetooth Low Energy
(BTLE) devices.
BTLE devices are various types of sensors the radio can be paired with via Bluetooth, for example gas
or heart rate sensors.
To pair the radio with a sensor, move the radio close to a sensor and press and hold the One-Touch
Button. A tone indicates successful pairing and connection. After the connection, the radio collects
information from the sensor.

Bluetooth Sensor Data
Your service provider can configure the details of the sensor information the radio displays.
Depending on the type of sensor connected to the radio and the setup configured by your service
provider, various types of information are displayed. The following sections contain information on the
most significant, pre-determined data the radio displays.
Sensor Battery Information
The radio displays the percentage of the remaining battery power of the connected sensors.
Heart Rate Sensor
If a heart rate sensor with the Energy Expended feature is paired and connected to the radio, two
values are displayed:
• Heart Rate in bpm.
• Energy Expended in kJ.
Sensor Alarm
A radio paired with appropriate sensors increases the security of the radio user by making the user
more aware of their surroundings. If the collected values exceed limits set by your service provider, the
radio plays an alarm tone, light the LED, and display a warning message. The alarm concerns, for
example, low battery, high toxicity, or low/high heart rate.
The alarm is active for a pre-defined time or until you discard it.
