Paring Process

- Tap the reset button once to put the BluGlu into a known state (idle). Hold the reset button until the white LED turns on, it should take about 4-5 seconds.
- Release the reset button and the BluGlu is now in a "waiting for pairing" state for about 2 minutes. If pairing times out, BluGlu will remain paired with the last device it was successfully paired with.
- Do a Bluetooth device discovery on the mobile phone. Once BluGlu is discovered, you can attempt to pair with it. BluGlu will try to use Simple Secure Pairing, but not all devices support that. If they don't, it will try to revert to using a PIN code.
- If this happens, the PIN code is 589213
