1. Introduction
1.1 Bluetooth Technology
Bluetooth is an internationally standardized technology supporting short distance wireless communications. Any
two Bluetooth-compatible equipments, such as mobile phone, PDA、PC, headset, mouse, keyboards, printer, etc.
can wirelessly communicate with each other via Bluetooth connection. To ensure worldwide compatibility,
Bluetooth operates on the globally available Industrial Scientific and Medical (ISM) frequency band. Within 2.4
GHz and 2.48 GHz, Bluetooth transmits data up to either 10 meters (CLASS II mode) or 100 meters (CLASS I
mode) using 79 frequency hopping channels.
Though line-of-sight is not required, Bluetooth connections could be subject to interferences from obstructions such
as walls, human bodies, and other electronic devices. In addition, due to variations on product implementation, it is
likely that Bluetooth equipments from different manufactures have interoperability issues. In that case, you may
consult with manufactures to check product compatibility.
Note that, there could be some restrictions imposing on using Bluetooth devices in some countries. Please check
with your local authorities.

2. Using Seecode Tube
2.1 Battery Charging and Usage
2.1.1 Battery Charging
Seecode Tube contains a rechargeable Li-Polymer battery. First-time charging takes about 4 hours. Later-on
recharging needs 2-3 hours. The charging procedure is as follows:
1. Plug the connector of the charger into the USB port on Seecode Tube.
2. Connect the car charger to the cigarette lighter to start charging.
Icon indicator will blink during the charging. When the icon changes to

, it indicates that the battery
Figure 2: Charging
You can also use the USB cable to charge Seecode Tube on PC. Charging by using USB cable takes longer than by
using car charger because the output power of the USB cable is smaller than that of the car charger.
2.1.2 Battery Information
Once fully charged, the battery will support continuous talk time up to 10 hours and standby time up to 1000 hours.
When the battery is low, Seecode Tube beeps once every two minutes and there is a message “Battery Low”
displayed on the screen. You can charge the battery as described above.
Note that, over-charging will shorten battery life. If a fully charged battery is left unused, it will lose power over
time. Extreme temperature (either too hot or too cold) will also affect the charging ability, capacity, and lifetime of
the battery.
2.2 Mounting Seecode Tube
Seecode Tube can be easily mounted on the sun visor inside the car by using sun visor plate delivered with Seecode
Tube.
The sun visor plate is adjustable. You can adjust it after mounting it on the sun visor till the OLED screen can
conveniently be seen.

which must support A2DP profile, the product allows users to enjoy and remotely play stereo music on the player.
2.7.1 Establish AV Connection
If your handset supports Bluetooth A2DP profiles, you can establish A2DP connection between the handset and
Seecode Tube to enjoy music on Seecode Tube while the music is played by the handset. Depending on the
handset capability, the AV connection could be established automatically when you start playing music.
If A2DP connection is established between the handset and Seecode Tube, icon indicator will be displayed on the
screen. If your handset does support A2DP profiles but the A2DP connection fails to be established when music
starts to play, you must follow your handset’s user guide to establish A2DP connection before playing music.

2.
Initiate the connection on Seecode Tube.
When Seecode Tube is in standby mode (no Bluetooth connection exists), press button
.Seecode Tube
starts to connect the last handset connected with it. After the connection is established, Seecode Tube
automatically starts to connect the second last handset connected to it.
Note: If the handset which you want to connect to Seecode Tube is not the last or second last handset
connected with Seecode Tube, you need to initiate the connection on the handset.
3. Initiate the connection on the handset.
Start the Bluetooth connection on the handset following the user manual of the handset.
Note: The second connection can be started only after the first one is successfully established.
When both of the two handsets are successfully connected, the first one will be the active handset and the second
one will be the standby handset. The active/standby relation can be changed only after the first handset is
disconnected. Only the name of the active handset can be displayed on the screen of Seecode Tube.
Any call operation initiated by Seecode Tube is performed only on the active handset, for example, redialing and
voice dialing.
Any operation initiated by either active or standby handset can be performed on Seecode Tube in the same way as
the single-link.
2.8.2 Call Operation
When two handsets are connected with Seecode Tube simultaneously:
1. If only one handset receives a call, the call will be transferred to Seecode Tube and all the operations will
be the same as those of single-link.
2. If the two handsets receive calls at the same time, Seecode Tube can accept only the call which reaches it
first. In this case, all the call operations on Seecode Tube will act on this call only, including call waiting
and conference call. When the first call is ended, you must long press button to transfer the other call
from the other handset to Seecode Tube. Otherwise, the other call will stay on the handset.
2.9 Pairing/Connecting with Other Bluetooth Device
2.9.1 Pairing with Other Bluetooth Device
Besides the Bluetooth handset, Seecode Tube can be paired with other Bluetooth devices to establish short-distance
Bluetooth communication. For how to operate Seecode Tube for the pairing, refer to section 2.5.1. For how to
operate the Bluetooth device for the pairing, refer to its user manual.
Seecode Tube can save the pairing information of up to 8 Bluetooth devices including the Bluetooth handset. The
information is saved in the sequence of the pairing. For how to remove the pairing information from Seecode Tube,
refer to section 2.5.2.
After the pairing, wireless short-distance communication can be established between any of the Bluetooth devices
and Seecode Tube. For how to establish the Bluetooth connection, refer to section 2.5.4.
