Bluetooth Setup & Pairing

This guide explains how to connect your Engage Pro Elite to a Bluetooth speaker.

🔵 Bluetooth Mode Overview

Bluetooth is the default audio mode.

When powered on:

  • The device will attempt to reconnect to the last paired speaker
  • If successful, boot audio will play automatically after 5-10 seconds of connecting to speaker.
  • Blue LED will illuminate to reflect Bluetooth is connected.

⚠️ On first use, you will need to pair a speaker.

You can enter pairing mode one of two ways:

  1. Put your speaker into pairing mode
  2. Power on the device
  3. A - Either press and hold Button 1 on the main unit or
  4. B - Hold Button 1 + Button 2, While holding, press Button 5 on the palm unit
  5. Release all buttons
  6. The Blue led will blink to confirm unit is in pairing mode.

The device will:

  • Clear any previous pairing data
  • Enter pairing mode
  • Begin scanning for nearby speakers
  • Onboard Blue LED will begin flashing (this can be observed through the pin hole ontop of the case) to show device is in pairing mode.
  • If no Bluetooth device is connected after 20 seconds the pairing mode will automatically turn off and the Blue LED will stop flashing.

📶 Connecting Your Speaker

  1. Ensuring your Bluetooth speaker into pairing mode
  2. Wait for the Engage Pro Elite to find and connect

  • The device will remember this speaker for future use
  • On next boot, it will attempt to reconnect automatically

⏱ Connection Timing

  • Initial connection may take a few seconds
  • If connection fails, power down device and follow connection steps again. (Testing has shown first connection attempt with some speakers can time out)
