Overview

3.1 Your BT-1 Bluetooth® controller

Your BT-1Bluetooth® controller consists of a pair of Kramer BT-1Bluetooth® controller units, a transmitter and a receiver of identical "dongle" type devices. The advantages of the BT-1Bluetooth® controller include:

￿￿A high quality design—each BT-1Bluetooth® controller unit is robust, compact and light weight

￿￿Ease of use—simply connect the PC to one BT-1Bluetooth® controller unit and the switcher to the other BT-1Bluetooth® controller unit

￿￿An uncluttered working environment—if the PC and the switcher are located in different rooms, or at opposite ends of the same room, you do not need to use lengthy cabling to interconnect them, and you are not restricted to the operation distance limitations of wired RS-232

￿￿A range of up to 10 meters1 between the pair of BT-1Bluetooth® controller units

To achieve the best performance:

￿￿Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables)

￿￿Position your BT-1Bluetooth® controller unit in a location free from moisture and away from excessive sunlight and dust

￿￿Never open your BT-1Bluetooth® controller unit
