The Helium Digital Bluetooth Communicator HDBT-110

(continuation)

Connecting the Communicator is just like using a regular Bluetooth headset. There is no software nor drivers to install. You just need to have the phone (or laptop or whatever) recognize the device and establish pairing. It even uses the common ‘0000′ security PIN, if required.

After initial pairing is set up, you’d found that both phones immediately reconnected whenever the Communicator was turned on.

Using the Communicator
The Helium Communicator incorporates two sets of LEDs to display status – one blue and one red, which are co-located in a ring around the central speaker. The blue set is used to show the unit is on (single flash) and paired (multi-flash).

When the unit is charging, both the blue and red are displayed solidly together, giving a cute pink tinge. When charging is complete, the red LEDs will go out, leaving just the blue. The blue and red flash alternately when the battery needs recharging.
