MIDLAND BTX2 FM - Manual (Page 23)

22 - Midland BTX2 FM
UK
The volume buttons (Vol + and Vol -) cannot be used to adjust the volume of the wired
audio source. The AGC system with automatically increase the volume on higher speed.
Attention: never set the volume of the MP3 Player to the maximum possible. Normally the
best level is about the 70% of the maximum.
Hint: We recommend that you perform a few tests adjusting the volume of your iPod/
MP3 player so at the normal speed the Headset volume is suited to your needs. The
AGC system will automatically increase the volume on higher speed. Make a note to
remember this setting for future trips.
Enabling/disabling the wired input
If needed the wired input can be enabled or disabled:
Enabling/Disabling: Make a Long press on the “Middle” and “Forward” button (you
will hear one audio beep tone for enabling confirmation and two audio beep tone for
disabling).
Using a PMR446 transceiver with the cable connection
In order to connect the transceiver to your Midland BTX2 FM, you need to purchase the
specific 2.5mm plug AUX cable, sold separately. S
ome manufacturers radios use a different pin configuration, so we recommend that
you ask your dealer as to which cable is best suited to your needs
The cable connected to the transceiver normally has also a PTT button that can be pla-
ced on the handlebar of your bike or held in your hand (If you are the passanger rider).
To communicate via the attached radio, press the PTT button to speak and release it to
listen. It is not possible to talk and listen simultaneously.
Adjust the volume of the transceiver to your needs, remembering that the volume
adjustment is controlled by the automatic AGC system and that it will therefore be
automatically increased in relation to background noise.
If you wish to use a PMR446 transceiver for group communications and simultaneously
maintain the Intercom feature enabled between two or more BTX2 FM devices, you
must remember that every time you talk to communicate with the PMR 446 transcei-
ver (pressing the PTT button), you will also activate the intercom of the BTX2 FM to the
unit connected to the “Middle” button (thanks to the VOX feature).
To avoid the Intercom activation when you speak on the PMR446, you can decide to pair
the BTX2 FM unit on the “Backward” or “Forward” (where the VOX is not active) or if you
still want to use the “Middle” button, you must disable the VOX feature, as explained
in the previous section.
Attention! If you disable the VOX feature, you will only be able to answer incoming phone
calls by pressing the “Forward” button.
Setup and special configurations
Resetting all paired devices
Sometimes you may find it necessary to delete all the pairing references stored in
the BTX2 FM unit (reset operation).
To perform this operation you must first enter the setup mode:
› Turn off the unit
› Press and hold down the “Middle” button about 7 sec., until the Red light is
on permanently.
› Than simultaneously press and hold down the “Volume +” and “Volume –“
buttons for 3 seconds. The Blue Light will be lit on for 1 sec and than back
to steady RED.
› Double click on the “Middle” button to exit the “Setup” mode and use the BTX2 FM.
This procedure deletes all the paired Bluetooth devices stored in the memory and
it is therefore possible to start a new “clean” pairing session.
Back to factory setting
Sometimes you may find it necessary to go back to the factory setting, to reset all
the changes/setup already made and have a “clean” unit.
To perform this operation you must first enter the setup mode:
› Turn off the unit
› Press and hold down the “Middle” button about 7 sec., until the Red light is
on permanently.
› Than simultaneously press and hold down all the three buttons “Forward”-
“Middle”-“Backward” for 3 seconds. The Blue Light will be lit on for 1 sec and
than back to steady RED.
› Double click on the “Middle” button to exit the “Setup” mode and use the BTX2 FM.
Adjusting/ Disabling the VOX feature (Intercom and telephone)
The Intercom feature can be enabled both manually and vocally (VOX). The VOX
activation is influenced by the background noise and therefore by the speed.
For optimum results, it is possible to choose one of the following four microphone
sensitivity levels: high, medium, low and very low. The default setting of BTX2
FM is “low”. It is also possible to disable the VOX feature in order to activate the
Intercom and phone call answering features in manual mode only.
Adjusting the sensitivity of the microphone (VOX)
To perform this operation you must first enter the setup mode:
1. Turn off the unit
2. Press and hold down the “Middle” button about 7 sec., until the Red light is
on permanently.
3. Your BTX2 FM is now in “Set up mode”.
