Pairing with A700/A700x Using TouchConnect

The A700/A700x device can use TouchConnect (tap and pair) to connect to an SRX2/SRX3 Wireless Headset when:

  • The A700/A700x device is running VoiceCatalyst.
  • Bluetooth is enabled.
  • The A700/A700x is sleeping (not running a task)
  • A wired headset is not attached or a wireless headset is not actively connected to the device.
  • The parameter SRXHeadsetEnable is set to 1 (Enabled). This is the default value.
  • The parameter SrxAutoPairEnable is set to 0 (Disabled). This is the default value.

For best performance when using an SRX2/SRX3 headset with a Talkman A700/A700x device, use the latest SRX2/SRX3 software version. Obtain the latest headset software from your Honeywell portal or reseller and use the Honeywell Accessory Update Utility (HAUU) to upgrade your SRX2/SRX3 headset.

Data sent through near field communication (NFC) is not encrypted nor does it follow any specific safety protocol. This is because the transfer occurs over such a short range that it is extremely unlikely that the data could be intercepted.

  1. Turn on the SRX2/SRX3 headset.
  2. If the headset's LED is blinking blue, it is currently paired to a device. Clear the pairing by pressing the + and - buttons simultaneously on the SRX2/SRX3 headset.
  3. If you are sharing headsets at your site:

    You must first obtain the operator ID by reading the headband:
    • Touch area of the SRX2/SRX3 t-bar (headband) with the symbol to center of the raised oval on the side of the device with the symbol, until the device state (ring) indicator blinks green. This associates the operator's headband to the device enabling VoiceConsole to recognize the operator.

    • Touch the side of the A700/A700x device that has the symbol and the oval area of the SRX2/SRX3's keypad section together, aligning the ovals on each and holding them together steadily, until the device state (ring) indicator blinks green. Note that there is a 30-second timeout after a headband is recognized in step one. You must pair the electronics module within 30 seconds from associating the headband for full functionality.

    If the device state indicator blinks red, the NFC read was not successful, and you should attempt to perform the read again.

  4. If you are not sharing headsets at your site:

    You only need to pair the device to the SRX2/SRX3 electronics module:
    • Touch the side of the A700/A700x device that has the symbol and the oval area of the SRX2/SRX3's keypad section together, aligning the ovals on each and holding them together steadily, until the device state (ring) indicator blinks green.

    If the device state indicator blinks red, the NFC read was not successful, and you should attempt to perform the read again.

  5. When the device starts the task, VoiceConsole recognizes the pairing.
