You may need to reset your Bluetooth devices. Please follow the steps below:
- Delete BT8040 from cell your phone. (if listed) - Turn your
cell phone off completely, and remove battery for 10 seconds. Please
consult your phone provider prior to removing battery. - Connect the BT8040 headset to the charger for 10 seconds then unplug. - Place the battery back into your phone and power your phone on. - Remove the headset from the AC cord. - Turn off the headset by pressing the answer/end button until the light flashes rapidly then release. - Press the answer/end button until you receive a solid blue light. This may take up to 10 seconds. -
Go into the Bluetooth menu on your cell phone and follow the cell
phone’s instruction guide for pairing a Bluetooth headset. This
generally involves going into a “devices” or “hands free” menu and
adding a new device. Your phone may ask if you want to pair with the
headset, accept by pressing “yes” or “OK” and confirm with the passkey
or PIN 0000 (4 zeros).
Read the manual its in there the factory setting for most is 0000 if you reset it and forgot it try disabling bluetooth on your phone the enable it ...be sure to remove the bluetooth from the recognized list too
Normally you setup a passkey or use 0000 or 9999 as a passkey.
The question is, does that pop up when you try to connect a USB device? Do you get that when you try to install the dongle? (That shouldn't happen). If you are trying to connect a PDA or cell phone, you setup the passkey for the connecting device on the computer then type it in to the PDA or mobile phone. If you are trying to connect a bluetooth headset, then you use whatever code is from the manufactorer. Normally this is 0000 or 9999.
I wanted to answer this for anyone else who found this question using a web search. The answer is 0000 (four zeros) when asked for the pass code. It's the default code. And your lock code (until you change it) is by default, the last four digits of your phone number i.e. 555-444-5555 (5555 would be your code)
My head set had another pin code other than 0000 when I recieved the unit which made it dificult to connect. I learned how to reset it to the default pin of 0000 which allowed me to sync it with my phone. After using it for a month or so my phone requested the pin again.I entered 0000 and once again would not accept the pin. I had to retore the default pin again and it works just fine. Here are the instructions. Plug your vbt185z into the wall charger and while connected press down and hold the center blue button untill the light comes on.(about 30 seconds)Unplug the the ear piece and turn the unit on.Now enter pin 0000 and your phone should accept the pin.
