Bluetooth RSAP - Tips

[ghunkin]

We have a growing list of compatible phones in another topic, so I thought I'd share some experiences and tips I've found that may help others....feel free to grow this list.

- Ensure RSAP is activated in the phone!!!

(if you are unsure how to do this as most phones don't come with a paper manual, the manual will either be on a supplied CD-ROM or you can get it from the phone manufacturers web site)

- Have a spare phone (or two!) handy that connect OK (from friends?) to be able to load new profiles to "bounce" old ones out that are experiencing problems. Don't persist with a faulty profile!

- If you are connecting with a smartphone, ensure that it is not doing anything else (email, web browsing, music playback) when the Columbus unit is trying to connect

- on first connection, set the phone bluetooth to be "visible" or put it into "listen mode" to ensure the Columbus can see it (obvious :wonder: )

- once a connection is established, make this bluetooth connection "trusted" or select the option when asked "always trust this phone" or "don't ask again" to connect in future
