What is the Bluetooth Phone Upgrade?
IMPORTANT! To use the phone option you must have a Vantage with serial number 2500VT or higher or a Vanguard with serial number 2100VG or higher. You must have software version 5.0 or higher loaded into your Vantage/Vanguard.
The phone is a Vantage/Vanguard accessory. When you install the Bluetooth Card into your device, your device can be used as a cell phone. This gives you the independence to move freely while still being able to talk on the phone with others. IMPORTANT NOTE! To make and receive calls through your device, you must have a regular cell phone and a service contract with either A T & T or T-Mobile which is a GSM Network and the phone must be Bluetooth Compatible. It is recommended that you test a phone for compatibility before purchasing.
* There are not many phones that support Bluetooth text messaging, so do not expect that your phone will. Look for "Text Messaging Supported" in the Bluetooth Status box when you pair your device and phone. If you do not see this message, text messaging is not supported.
* When using a phone, your device and your phone should be within 10 feet of each other for best results
* When purchasing the Bluetooth Phone Card it is important to remember that your device must have 5.00 Software or higher installed in the unit.
You can purchase the Bluetooth Card and/or cable from PRC. Installation instructions come in the package.
NOTE: If you have an older Vantage or Vanguard, you may be able to send it in for a hardware update to accommodate the phone card and cable. Check with the PRC Sales Department by calling 1-800-292-1933.
