Bluetooth on Genesis GT-3.0

[joekwatson]

I bought a Tech Acoustics Model WS 507E wireless speaker that is supposed to operate by Bluetooth pairing. So far, Bluetooth in my Genesis GT-3.0 has not recognized the device, nor has the device recognized it. Can anybody help on where to get help.

Hi joekwatson,

Here are the pairing instructions from the GT 3.0 manual and here's a link to the manual. But I have a feeling it's a bluetooth receiver only, intended to play music from your bluetooth enabled phone. It may not be able to output audio to a bluetooth speaker. You might need to buy a bluetooth transmitter for that. Here's one on Amazon.com.


Pairing the GT-3.0 with a Bluetooth
®
device
With the GT-3.0 powered on Press the button marked
“Bluetooth” to enter Bluetooth setup. The GT-3.0 screen will

report “NO LINK” until a Bluetooth device is successfully paired

with the GT-3.0.
The GT-3.0 will send a password request to the Bluetooth device that reads “Enter a numeric PassKey for GENESIS

TECHNOLOGIES ****”. The factory default pass key is (0000).
Enter the 4 digit numeric code to unlock the Bluetooth connection. The GT-3.0 will send a confirmation request to the device

that reads “Accept Connection Request from GENESIS TECHNOLOGIES?”

Confirm GENESIS TECHNOLOGIES connection

to successfully pair device with the GT-3.0
Pairing the GT-3.0 to a cell phone will configure the GT-3.0 to
allow hands-free listening and talking. The built in microphone is
located on the face of the GT-3.0 with a range of 12 feet. Sound
is transmitted to any of the selected rooms A, B and or C.
The paired Bluetooth connection also allows remotely controlled streaming stereo audio from the paired device from as far

away as 25 feet.Bluetooth
