General considerations on priority
The Midland BT2 is a Bluetooth unit that can be paired with
other Bluetooth devices with different features: mobile phone,
GPS, MP3 player, etc...
Depending on the type of device, Midland BT2 assigns ope-
rating priorities; for example calls have a higher priority com-
pared to music. This means that if a call arrives whilst you are
listening to music, your music will automatically be interrupted
so that you can answer the call. There are three priorities avai-
lable to meet the most common requirements.
Devices with (high) priority 1
Because of their use, mobile phones and GPS Sat-Navs al-
ways have a higher priority compared to other connected de-
vices. Therefore, an incoming call or instruction from a GPS
always interrupts all other active communications. Devices
with priority 1 must be paired with the BT2 unit using the “Pho-
ne” button.
Devices with (Medium) priority 2
This priority can be assigned only to another BT2 with Inter-
com feature. Enabling the Intercom feature disables all other
communications except those with (High) priority 1. This is
