Operation Manual

4.3 AUDIO SOURCES AND PRIORITIES
If two connected audio sources try to play simultaneously, your
scala rider automatically determines which audio source to play
through the speakers based on the priority of the connected devices.
Higher Priority
1. Mobile Phone audio or GPS instructions*
2. Intercom / Click-to-Link
3. A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) audio
4. FM Radio (Built-in)
5. AUX (for corded connection i.e. Music Players)
* GPS instructions from Smartphone GPS Apps
are prioritized like A2DP audio

Lower Priority
• Incoming mobile phone calls interrupt ongoing intercom calls
• Incoming intercom calls will interrupt ongoing A2DP music
• Intercom and Click-to-Link calls have the same priority. So
Click-to-Link calls will not interrupt any Intercom call in progress,
and vice-versa.
A2DP audio priority can be congured to be higher than Intercom audio
priority (see section 3).

5. INTERCOM
The scala rider Q3 allows Bike-to-Bike full duplex intercom
communication at a range of up to 1 km / 3,200 ft (subject to
terrain) within line of sight. The Q3 is capable of toggling with
three other riders using Intercom Channels A, B and C.
Pairing with another scala rider
To chat with another scala rider via Intercom, pair your scala rider Q3
to the second device. Pairing is a one-time process. Once paired, the
two units will automatically recognize each other whenever in range.
5.1 INTERCOM COMPATIBILITY
Your scala rider Q3 is compatible with most scala rider models
for intercom calls. In addition, it is also compatible with the
Schuberth SRC-System™. Intercom range with other models is
limited to the distance of the device with the shorter range.
For details on how to pair and use your Q3 with other scala rider
models, please visit www.cardosystems.com/Q3compatibility.
5.2 PAIRING INTERCOM CHANNELS
Pairing a Channel will replace any existing paired device on that Channel
with the new device.
If you have purchased the Q3 MultiSet, the retail package contains two
pre-paired units congured to communicate via their
v
buttons on
Channel A.
If for any reason you have to pair them again, OR if you wish to pair
another unit, proceed as follows:
1. Check both scala riders are in Standby.
2. On the rst unit, press
v
for 5 seconds. Once the LED begins
ashing, select the intercom channel you would like to pair by
tapping
v
(Channel “A” pairs automatically).
