    Connecting to headsets (pairing) Connecting the BlueAir adaptor to Bluetooth headsets is very simple but before you begin you will need to know your headset manufacturer’s in- structions for switching the headset to “pairing mode”. As with any device used with Bluetooth headsets, to start using the BlueAir adapter it must first be connected to the headset of your choice using the process known as “pairing”.

  • Page 15: Connecting To Audio Equipment

    Connecting to audio equipment The audio input and output levels of the BlueAir Adaptor are broadly com- patible with standard audio inputs and outputs of both professional and domestic audio systems and computer equipment. The adapter can be con- nected to the ‘line’ or microphone inputs and ‘line’ or headphone outputs of almost all audio equipment and should work well with everything from PA (public address), instrument and HiFi equipment to professional mixers / pre-amps, televisions, portable audio systems and computers.

  • Page 18 NOTE: The maximum range (between headset and adpator) of the BlueAir adaptor is 10m. The BlueAir adaptor is for mono audio transmission only and will not pair with Bluetooth enabled stereo headphones. The connection adaptors pro- vided can however be used to combine stereo channels for transmission by the BlueAir adaptor as mono audio signals.
  • Page 19: Using Your Blueair Adaptor

    Using your BlueAir adaptor The primary purpose of the BlueAir adapter is to allow standard Bluetooth headsets to be used as wireless microphones but it can also be used for wireless audio monitoring. As it can do both simultaneously, it is excellent for using Bluetooth headsets with computers for VOIP (Voice Over IP) te- lephony.
  • Page 20 For good results when using the BlueAir adaptor to amplify acoustic in- struments such as guitars, cellos and double basses, the best method for mounting the Bluetooth headset is to attach it to the ExplorAudio H-clamp as shown on page 10. Equally good sound can be achieved by attaching the headset to a conventional stand but your freedom of movement is then restricted considerably.
  • Page 21 Computer audio The BlueAir adaptor can be connected to the standard audio ports of com- puters to allow both oudio in and out to be sent to/from a Bluetooth head- set. This is particularly useful for internet telephony using services such as Skype.
