Operative “mode”
The BTX2 can operate in two main “mode”: Intercom and Phone.
The 3 multi function buttons can have different functionality depending on which
mode the unit is at that moment.
› In “Intercom mode” the middle buttons let you manage the communications
between driver and passanger
› In “Phone mode” you can manage your Bluetooth cellular phone to place/
answer a phone call or to listen to the music (in stereo mode). Please use your
phone responsibly and safely.
You can switch (toggle) from one mode to the other simply pressing the Middle
button for 3 seconds. A voice announcement will tell in which mode you are on.
The toggle sequence is the following:
› Intercom mode (if another unit has been paired)
› Phone mode (if a phone has been paired)
Every time you turn on the unit, the default mode is Intercom (if it was previously
paired to another unit), otherwise it will be Phone (If was paired to a phone).
If you need to know in which mode the unit currently is, just press the “Volume +
“ and “Volume –“ button together. A voice announcement will tell you the current
mode.
Maximum Distance
You can reach 800mt intercom distance if the flip up antenna is up and if you are
in line of site without obstructions and interferences (the riders must be always
in sight).
