Note: For optimal performance of the intercom system it is important to follow the set-up procedure on
the following page.
Setting up your Communication System Continued:
Intercom and Voice Activation Sensitivity (VOX):
Your system includes a voice activated intercom system for rider to passenger communication. Voice
activation allows the rider and passenger to have a conversation by simply speaking into the microphone.
The voice activation sensitivity (VOX) level is adjustable to enhance the performance of the intercom.
Note: For optimal performance of the intercom system it is important to adjust the VOX sensitivity.
Additionally, the microphone must be positioned directly in front of your mouth.
Adjusting the Voice Activation Sensitivity (VOX):
Press the Mode button four times. VOX will be seen in the display. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to
adjust the VOX Sensitivity. Sensitivity levels can be set from 0-10 with “0” being the most sensitive. If
your VOX is set at “0”, your microphone will be constantly open and transmitting over the intercom. A
VOX setting of “0” may cause wind noise and engine noise to interfere with normal operation of the
intercom.
For optimal performance when using the intercom, it is best to set the VOX sensitivity to a level that
matches your individual speech pattern and voice level. People who have a softer speaking voice will need
a lower VOX sensitivity level number.
Using your Communication System:
Transmit Information:
Once your communication system has been set-up, the PUSH TO TALK (PTT) button on the handle bar
can be used to transmit to other riders in your group. Before transmitting listen to the intended channel to
see if other riders outside of your group are using the channel. This can be done using the monitor mode.
Press and hold the MODE button, and if someone is using the channel and is using a different Interference
Elimination Code, you will hear their transmissions. You may want to select a different channel and
interference elimination code.
When the PUSH TO TALK (PTT) button on the handle bar control is pressed, the display will TX with the
channel number. Press and hold the button while you are speaking into the headset microphone. Release
the PTT to receive a transmission from another rider.
Auxiliary Input Jack:
To listen to portable audio devices (such as MP3, AM/FM radios, or CD players) through the
communications system, there is a port available for auxiliary input. Simply use a standard 3.5 mm audio
patch cord (male to male) to plug in your audio device. The 3.5mm audio patch cords should be available
at your local electronics store. The audio device will play automatically when connected.
Note: Audio output levels vary by portable device. It may be necessary for you to increase the volume on
your personal audio device to get maximum volume from the sound system.
