Proximity Pairing
Proximity pairing is headset-initiated pairing and it simplifies the out-of-box pairing process. Proximity pairing
enables
the headset to find the closest discoverable phone. The headset then initiates the pairing activity and the user
simply
has to accept the incoming pairing invitation on the phone.
This means that the phone-user does not have to hunt through phone menus to pair with the new headset.
Depending on the phone UI:
■ For a Bluetooth v2.0 phone the headset pairing is with a PIN code
■ For a Bluetooth v2.1 (or above) phone the headset pairing is without a PIN code
Proximity pairing is based on finding and pairing with the closest phone. To do this, the headset finds the loudest
phone by carrying out RSSI power threshold measurements. The loudest phone is the one with the largest RSSI
power threshold measurement, and it is defined as the closest device. The headset then attempts to pair with
and
connect to this device.
Proximity pairing is configurable using the Headset Configurator tool available from www.csrsupport.com.
