CONNECTING THE MOBILE ADAPTER TO A TWO-WAY RADIO
* When connecting the PRYMEBLU Mobile Adapter to a two-way mobile radio, first make sure
that the two-way radio is powered off.
* Insert the radio connector of the Mobile Adapter into the corresponding jack on the two-way
radio. Push the connector into the jack until it is firmly seated.
NOTE: Most models of PRYMEBLU Mobile Adapter connect to the accessory plug on the rear of
the two-way radio. However, some models may connect to the radio's front microphone jack
and/or rear external speaker jack.
* On some models you may need to tighten one or more retaining screws on the adapter after
plugging the Mobile Adapter's connector into the two-way radio.
* If you will use the PRYMEBLU Mobile Adapter with a wired Push-to-Talk (such as a footswitch)
plug the connector for the PTT into the External PTT Jack of the adapter and mount the switch.

Reprogramming the Radio
* In order for the PRYMEBLU Mobile Adapter to work properly, some two-way mobile radios may
require reprogramming using the radio's manufacturer's Computer Programming Software and a
programming cable. This may be necessary to ensure that all of the needed signals are available on
the radio's accessory port or to set audio levels to match the headset.
* If you believe that your radio requires reprogramming (or are unsure) you should contact your
two-way radio dealer or PRYME's technical support.
Mounting the Adapter
Velcro is supplied with the PRYMEBLU Mobile Adapter which allows you to secure the adapter to
nearly any location near the mobile two-way radio. For convenience, you should mount the adapter
somewhere that the user will be able to see the status LED and to reach the Multifunction Button for
ease of use. Mounting the adapter as high as possible and making sure it is not blocked by metal or
electrical devices will ensure best possible wireless range.
PAIRING WITH A WIRELESS AUDIO ACCESSORY
* Turn off the radio that the PRYMEBLU Mobile Adapter is connected to. Wait at least three seconds.
* Turn the radio on while holding down the Multifunction button on the PRYMEBLU Mobile Adapter.
* Continue to hold the Multifunction button down until the status LED on the PRYMEBLU Mobile
Adapter begins to flash two times per second. This can take approximately three to five seconds.
* Release the Multifunction button. The PRYMEBLU Mobile Adapter is now in audio accessory
pairing mode.
* Activate the pairing mode on your compatible wireless audio accessory using the process
provided by that device's manufacturer.
* Keep the PRYMEBLU Mobile Adapter and wireless audio accessory close to each other and wait
a few seconds.
* Once the audio accessory and adapter are paired with each other, the status LED on the
adapter will show a long blue flash and then begin to flash approximately once every second.
Once successfully paired, you will be able to operate your two-way radio using your compatible
wireless accessory.
