Pair Your Headset

Pairing is the process in which two devices enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology create a secure link to share information. The pairing process begins when the master device initiates an inquiry to search for discoverable Bluetooth addresses.

Vocollect wireless headset pairings with devices are initiated by the device and remain paired until broken by the user.

The pairing exists between the headset and device hardware. If the worker moves to a different device, the original headset/device pairing does not follow that worker.

Pairing versus Connecting

Pairing is not the same as connecting. Two Bluetooth devices, once paired, can connect and disconnect many times. With a pairing in memory, the two devices can reconnect easily and makes repeated attempts to establish a connection. In this way, a headset and device pairing allows for increased user mobility.

For example, if the user takes the headset out of range of the paired device or powers it off, the device notices the connection loss and tries to reconnect. The two remain paired throughout this process.
