3-way communications with your GPS Sat-Nav

The Intercom feature is temporarily disabled when commu-

nication with your GPS Sat-Nav is active (street indication or

music).However it is possible to allow the passenger to listen,

by enabling a “3-way communication”.

When the communication with the GPS is active, briefly press

the “Intercom” button on the BT2 device connected to the GPS

Sat-Nav (you will hear an audio confirmation tone). The pillion

will now be able to listen to the same information/music that

the rider hears. To return to the private mode, press the “Inter-

com” button once more.(you will hear two audio confirmation

tones).

Using other bluetooth devices

Midland BT2 can also be paired with other Bluetooth devices

like MP3 players, Bluetooth adapters (for example BPA100) or

Two Way Radio transceivers with built-in Bluetooth (for exam-

ple Midland 445BT).

This can be a great advantage as it is possible to then increa-

se your “Bike to Bike range” up to 5kms!

To use these devices, be sure your BT2 and other device are

both turned on and correctly paired together, following the

pairing procedure described in the “Pairing the unit with other

Bluetooth devices” section.

Paired devices can be enabled or disabled without canceling

the pairing by simply pressing the “AUX” button.

Disabling: press “AUX” button for 3 seconds (you will hear

two audio confirmation tones)

Enabling: press “AUX” button for 3 seconds (you will hear

one audio confirmation tone)

In this case the device is simply temporarily disconnected from

the BT2 unit, although the devices continue to be paired.
Priority: communications with other Bluetooth devices

have a lower priority compared to those established with

a mobile phone, GPS Sat-Nav and Intercom system. This

means that communications will always be disabled

when a call arrives, when the GPS Sat-Nav transmits in-

structions, or when the Intercom feature is enabled.
Attention: if you use your GPS Sat-Nav to listen to music

(the communication with the GPS Sat-Nav is always acti-

ve), all communications with other Bluetooth devices will

be disabled, as they have a lower priority.

Using a Bluetooth MP3 player

The Midland BT2 fully supports the A2DP protocol that ena-

bles you to listen to stereo music and manage the main fea-

tures of your MP3 player. It’s even possible to use the buttons

on the BT2 unit to manage the following play features: Play,

Pause, Forward and Backward.

Available controls:

› To enable your connected MP3 Player, press and hold down

the “Intercom” button for 3 seconds.

› To play/pause music, briefly press the “Intercom” button.

› To skip forward to the next song, briefly press the “Telepho-

ne” button.

› To skip backwards to the previous song, briefly press the

“AUX” button.

› To disable the MP3 player, press and hold down the “Inter-

com” button for 3 seconds (2 beeps will confirm it).

To open the Intercom communication just talk or , for a manual

activation, disable first the MP3 player , pressing the “Inter-

com” button and than press it again to open the Intercom.

It is not possible to garantee the full compatibility with

all the MP3 Bluetooth player in the market, because they

often use different or proprietary procedures.

Using a Bluetooth adapter:

Your Midland BT2 can be connected to an external Bluetooth

adapter (such as a BPA100) to use with audio devices without

built-in Bluetooth connection (like Two Way radio transceivers

or older GPS variants).

Using a Bluetooth Enabled Two Way Radio

The Midland BT2 can be connected to Bluetooth Enabled Two

Way Radio (such as Midland 445BT) and used for bike to-bike

communications. Pair your BT2 with the Radio, as described

in the “Pairing the unit with other Bluetooth devices” chapter,

then enable the Bluetooth connection by pressing the button

on the radio. This will then allow you to transmit over much
