Recommendations for specific uses
The section that follows, provides a few useful suggestions on
how to achieve maximum performance from your BT1 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 BT1’s VOX feature.
Consequently, radio communications will be disabled whilst
you are talking with your pillion, because they have a lower
priority compared to Intercom communications.
This can be prevented in two ways, which are:
Disabling the VOX feature
Disable the VOX feature, as explained in the previous sec-
tion, to make sure that the intercom will not automatically be
activated when you speak on the PMR446. To enable the In-
tercom feature when using this configuration, you will have
to press Intercom button manually. (This operation disables
radio communications that will be automatically re-enabled
when the Intercom feature is disabled).
Attention! If you disable the VOX feature, you will only
be able to answer incoming phone calls by pressing the
“Phone” button.
Permanently enabling 3-way communications
If you enable this feature (as explained in the previous sec-
tion), every time you talk the Intercom is enabled, but the two-
way radio transceiver communications are not disabled. This
means that you can share two-way radio communications
between Rider and Pillion.
Share the music between Rider and Pillion
If you wish to share the same music between the Rider and
the Pillion you must follow these simple steps:
› Connect the music player to the Rider or Pillion unit, via
wired connection trough the AUX plug
› Enable the “3 way communications feature” (see the chap-
ter above) on the unit which has the music player connec-
ted
› Activate the Intercom, now the music is shared.
Attention: Only those who are connected to music by
wire can listen to it in stereo mode.
Attention: It is not possible to share music if the source
is Bluetooth Stereo (A2DP)
