tain Intercom communications and simultaneously talk using
a transceiver radio connected via Bluetooth or wired connec-
tion.
In addition it also allows you to share the music between Rider
and Pillion. Considering that the music quality is “mono” for
the second person who will share the music (see the chapter
“Share the music between driver and passenger” below).
Enabling/disabling 3 way communications
Enter the Setup mode:
Switch your BT2 off. Press and hold down the central but- ›
ton (Intercom/on) until the red light switches on permanent-
ly.Your BT2 is now set in Setup mode.
Simultaneously press and hold down the “Telephone” and ›
“AUX” buttons for at least three seconds.
If the feature was enabled, it will be disabled (steady blue ›
light for 2 seconds).
If it was disabled, it will be enabled (blue light long ashes). ›
Quit the Setup mode by pressing the “Intercom” button for ›
a minimum of 3 seconds. The red light switches off and the
blue light starts ashing. You can now use the BT2.
Attention: if the Bluetooth device is a stereo MP3 player,
communications will always be disabled when the Inter-
com feature is enabled. (Only “mono” devices support a
permanently active 3-way communication).
Enabling the intercom by voice (vox)
The Intercom feature can be enabled both manually and vo-
cally (VOX). The VOX activation is inuenced by the back-
ground noise and therefore by the speed, type of bike and
soundproof features of your helmet.
For optimum results, it is possible to choose one of the follow-
ing four microphone sensitivity levels: high, medium, low and
very low. The high settings suited for noiseless and protected
bikes like scooters and fully faired/screened bikes. The low
setting is more suited for naked/noisy bikes. The default set-
ting of BT2 is “medium”.
It is also possible to disable the VOX feature in order to
activate the Intercom and phone call answering features in
manual mode only.
Adjusting the sensitivity of the microphone (VOX)
1) Enter the Setup mode: Switch your BT2 off.
Press and hold down the central button (Intercom) until the
red indicator switches on permanently. Your BT2 is now in
“Set up mode”.
2) Briey press the “AUX” button once, the red indicator will
turn to steady Blue
3) Now, press “Volume +” or “Volume -“to increase or redu-
ce sensitivity. Every time you press the Volume buttons
the RED light will ash for conrmation. When you reach
the end of the upper and lower limit, the RED light will not
ash.
4) Press again the AUX button and the Blue light will ash
several times, in order to let you know the selected sen-
sitivity: once = VOX disabled / Twice = very low sensitivity
/ 3 times= low sensitivity / 4 times= medium sensitivity / 5
times = high sensitivity / Default = medium sensitivity
5) The light indicator is now back to steady RED (“Set up
mode”) and the changes are conrmed
6) If needed, you can adjust again the sensitivity repeating
the steps from point 2.
7) Now quit the Setup mode by pressing and holding down
the “Intercom” button for at least 3 seconds. The red light
switches off and the blue light starts ashing. You can now
use the BT2.
Disabling the VOX feature (Intercom and telephone)
In addition to the 4 microphone sensitivity levels, there is a
fth state that allows you to turn off the VOX feature. Fol-
low the same procedure used to adjust the sensitivity of the
microphone (see above) and on step 3 press the “Volume -”
to reduce the sensitivity till the RED light stop ashing. Press
now the “AUX” button and the Blue light will ash one time,
this means that the VOX feature is disabled. Follow now the
procedure above from the point 5.
To enable it again, perform the complete procedure above,
choosing one of the other four sensitivity levels available
(from 2 to 5).
Recommendations for specic uses
The section that follows, provides a few useful suggestions on
how to achieve maximum performance from your BT2 unit.
Using a PMR446 transceiver with the Intercom feature
(Rider to Pillion)
If you wish to use a PMR446 transceiver for group commu-
nications and simultaneously maintain the Intercom feature
enabled between the pilot and passenger, you must remem-
ber that the Intercom feature is enabled every time you speak
by means of the BT2’s VOX feature.
