Pairing the Vantage Plus / Vanguard Plus with your Phone.
This example uses the link to the Phone Configuration screen through Phone Dial Pad, however the MAINTENANCE MENU also has a Phone Configuration menu which is slightly different from the menu used in this article.


1. From the PHONE Activity Row, select the PHONE DIAL PAD key .
2. Select the Phone Configuration key. 

3. On your phone, go to the "Bluetooth Menu". To find this menu you may have to read the manual that came with your phone.
4. Put your phone in "discoverable" mode.
Note: "Discoverable mode" on your phone may be labeled "discoverable" or "paired" or "find me" or something else entirely. Different Bluetooth cell phones call the pair button different things. If you are unsure which option to select, look at the instructions that came with your cell phone.
5. On your Device select the Pair to Phone key . 
6. Your phone will display a message asking you to enter a passcode.

On your phone, enter four zeros: 0000. You must use this passcode. Then select OK or
the button on your phone that accepts your selections and exits.
7. When your cell phone is paired with the device you will see "Paired" or "Connected" in the Bluetooth Status box in the Phone Configuration Menu. You will also see Bluetooth cell phone icons in the Status Display Area of the device.

If your cell phone supports Bluetooth text messaging, you will see "Text Messaging Supported" in the Bluetooth Status box. If you do not see this message, your phone will not support Bluetooth text messaging.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Even with advanced technology, there are a very limited number of phones available that are capable of sending text messages using a Bluetooth signal. Compatible phones available by Sony Ericsson: W580, W350, W760a, W518a, Equinox TM717, and Motorola Moto z9n. These phones were tested using A T & T and/or T-Mobile wireless support which is GSM network. Due to rapidly changing technology and phone models, the phones listed may have been discontinued since this article was posted. Before purchasing a new phone, take your device with you to your service provider for a list of available phones and try them out to insure compatibility.
Listing of specific phones and service providers is intended to help PRC customers find a compatible phone. PRC cannot provide support or instruction on cell phones or their use with AAC devices. PRC is not responsible for incompatible phones or signed phone contracts.
