Cordless Tool will find the Expert Alpha controller and request to be added as a trailing spindle by turning on, then
off, the status lights in sequence. Accept the QPM Cordless Tool as a trailing spindle on the Expert. See Section
“8.1 Connection” on page 164 to see how to accept the spindle as a trailing device.
Press the BACK interactive menu button when the pairing operation is complete to return the access point to
normal mode and the user defined SSID.
