How to pair and connect with other devices
The RS507 can pair and connect as an emulated keyboard using the Bluetooth HID profile to other devices that
support HID using the device discovery feature.
NOTE Not all devices support HID. If the RS507 is not discovered as a keyboard (when it is in HID mode), consult
the device information.
Reconnecting

When the RS507 fails to establish connection or connection is lost during operation:
The RS507 emits one string of low/high beeps.

The RS507 automatically attempts to reconnect to the computer for 30 seconds (the Scan LEDs flash green).

Manual reconnection to Restore Lost Bluetooth Connection
If automatic re-connection fails, verify that the RS507 is within BT range and briefly press the small Restore key on
the side of the RS507 to reconnect.
The RS507 Scan LEDs start to flash green, indicating that the RS507 is attempting to establish connection with

the RS507 to the last paired device. Connection is established as long as the link key (the authentication
key used to establish a link between devices) on the RS507 side is not deleted.
