Pairing Considerations
Multiple devices can be paired to the MBT-CRXv3, but only one streaming device can connect at a time. The MBT-CRXv3 will remember the last device that was connected to it and reconnect with it automatically. If that streaming device is not active, then other paired streaming devices can connect manually, or new streaming devices can be paired.
When a connected streaming device is out of range for more than one minute, the MBT-CRXv3 will automatically disconnect the streaming device and return to pairing mode (JL Audio button will flash). When that same device comes back into range, it should be reconnected to the MBT-CRXv3 manually.
Pairing Your Device
- Ensure your streaming device has Bluetooth® enabled and that the MBT-CRXv3 is on. The center JL Audio button will flash to indicate pairing mode is active.
- Select “JLA MBT-CRX” from your device’s Bluetooth® setup menu.
- When successfully connected, the JL Audio button owill illuminate solid.
