Using 2 Phones (Multipoint) Up to 2 devices can connect to the earpiece at the same time. If either phone rings, you can answer it with the earpiece. Use the Pair Me command to put your Connect back into pairing mode to pair another phone. Any currently connected phone will be disconnected during pairing, so you will need to reconnect afterwards.
