The Pairing button touch pad on the top of the Sony SRS X5.
This post provides Sony X 5 pairing instructions, to link it with common wireless devices. E.g. These include the iPhone and the iPad line of Apple phones, media players, and tablets. You can also pair this speaker with Android devices using a similar procedure.
With your X 5 powered OFF (power lamp is dark), run through these directions to pair it to your source BT mobile device. We’re using an iPad Air tablet for this demo.
Firstly, press the Home button to reveal the smart device’s Home screen.
We found ours on the second page of the Home screen, as we see next.
Thirdly, touch the Settings app icon.
The smart device then shows the first page of its settings, as shown in the next step.
Our Bluetooth Settings screen displays as follows. Note that our Bluetooth is enabled here. But since our X 5 is currently OFF (is not in Bluetooth discovery mode), it does not show up in the Bluetooth devices list. Also, we don’t see it since we’ve never paired this speaker with our mobile device before.
Thus, turn on the X 5 by quickly pressing its Power button. See this, pointed at by the green arrow, in the next picture.
The speaker then powers on, and its status lamp nearby glows green, as we see in the next picture.
But since our iPad does not know about this speaker, the X 5 will not pair with it automatically.
Now, to see your speaker on your device, place it into Bluetooth discovery / pairing mode. To make that happen, press and hold the Pairing button. It’s in the front row of buttons, second button from the left.
Release the button when the speaker makes two high beep sounds, and the Pairing lamp starts fast flashing white.
This takes one to three seconds to enter pairing mode.
See the screen shot next. We found the test speaker, as pointed at by the green arrow.
Tap the listed speaker in the discovered devices list.
Your mobile device then connects with the X 5.
E.g. The source device’s Bluetooth Settings screen might then change to look something like the following. Note the now-connected Sony X 5 entry, as pointed at by the green arrows in the next screenshot.
At last, we have now successfully paired the X 5 with with a common mobile tablet device.
