TESTING THE WIRELESS CONNECTION
If the Control Box is placed under your motorcycle seat it is recommended to test the
wireless connection between the Helmet Headsets and Control Box because the wireless
connection performance is affected by environmental factors which include having one or
two human bodies sitting above the Control Box. The testing procedure should be carried
out with one or two people sitting on the motorcycle to simulate real use conditions.
To test the Helmet Headset wireless connection complete the following steps:
1. Place the Control Box as in the desired position under the seat.
2. Connect the Control Box to your motorcycle battery
3. Connect your Audio Player to the Control Box Audio socket.
4. Power On the Helmet Headset Rider and Helmet Headset Passenger.
5. Power On the Control Box and wait for the connection with the Helmet Headsets to
be established.
6. Keep the Helmet Headset Passenger within 30cm range of the Control Box.
7. Take the Helmet Headset Rider and walk away from the Control Box; good
placement of the Control Box should enable at least 10m of music streaming for the
Helmet Headset Rider.
8. Next, keep Helmet Headset Rider within 30cm range of the Control Box.
9. Take the Helmet Headset Passenger and walk away from the Control Box; good
placement of the Control Box should enable at least 10m of music streaming for the
Helmet Headset Passenger.
10. If the test results are not satisfactory reposition the Control Box and retest.
NOTE: Some trial and error is required to determine the optimal placement of the Control
Box.

AUTO POWER OFF
To prevent the BikerCom from draining your motorcycle battery when the Control Box is in
Power On mode and your motorcycle engine is not running; the Control Box automatically
Powers Off when the motorcycle battery output is below 12.5 volts. For example you might
stop at a restaurant for something to eat and leave the Control Box Powered On after you
have stopped the motorcycle engine.
