Stone Mountain's BluSkye is a certified Zello accessory often used in the retail and aviation industries. This article provides instructions for pairing the BluSkye with your Windows PC, and is applicable to both Zello's Dispatch Hub and the legacy PC app.  ![](https://support.zello.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/27990716270093-2.png?width=400&height=400&name=27990716270093-2.png) Please note you should first confirm your BluSkye device is configurable with a Windows PC. This information can be found in your user guide.  ### **Confirming your device’s mode** Desktop users should configure their BluSkye device to mode 7.  To confirm what mode your BluSkye is in, simultaneously press and hold the SW3, SW4, and SW5 buttons (the three buttons on either side of the BluSkye, excluding the PTT button). When the LED light turns purple, release the buttons and listen for a series of quick, successive beeps — the number of beeps heard indicates the mode. (For example, if you hear 7 beeps, you’re in mode 7.)  ### Changing your device's mode Replicate the steps above. When the BluSkye has completed the beep cycle, press the power button the number of times that correlates with the mode number. For example, if configuring the device for Windows desktop, press the power button seven times. [See this video for more information. ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=WMhmqcbt8B8) ### **Pairing BluSkye to your PC** Begin these instructions with the BluSkye turned OFF.  1. While off, press and hold the BluSkye’s power button for 6 seconds.  **Note:** The BluSkye will cycle through two sets of beeps: one played at the 3 second mark, and then another played at the 6 second mark. Do not release the power button until the second set of beeps has played and the power button flashes red and blue.   2. Open your PC’s start menu and go to **Settings**\>**Bluetooth and other devices**. ![](https://support.zello.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/27989454950157-2.png?width=300&height=553&name=27989454950157-2.png) 3. Click **+ Add device**, then select **Bluetooth**.  ![](https://support.zello.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/27989429779213-2.png?width=670&height=214&name=27989429779213-2.png) 4. From the discoverable devices list, select **Stone Mountain BluSkye PTT.** Then click **Connect**. **Note:** If asked about a passcode, click **Yes**. This device doesn't have a passcode and consequently doesn't require anything be entered.   5. When your BluSkye has been successfully paired, it will beep twice and its LED light will flash blue. 6. From your PC’s settings, go to **System** \> **Sound**. ![](https://support.zello.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/27989429785229-2.png?width=670&height=160&name=27989429785229-2.png) 7.

When the **Push to Talk Button** field reads "Control + P," click **Assign**.  ![](https://support.zello.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/27990564203533-2.png) #### Legacy PC App - 1\) Open the Legacy PC app.  2\) From the task bar, open **Tools** \> **Options**. Click the **Audio** tab, and ensure both the playback and recording devices are configured to the BluSkye.  3\) Click the keyboard (Control) icon. Then click the **Set** button to the right of the **Push-to-talk** option.  ![](https://support.zello.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/27990564206605-2.png) 4\) Press and hold the PTT button.
