Auxiliary Audio Input, Requirements, Function

Auxiliary Audio Input

The ComSystem provides a port to connect auxiliary audio players (such as MP3 devices) to the audio channel (Level 1).

Requirements

•Connect the accessory audio device using a connection cable BMW PN 99 99 0 000 204 (short) or 99 99 0 000 205 (long), which has a 3.5 mm stereo plug at both ends.

Function

•The auxiliary audio input jack ➊ becomes live when fairing speaker / headset switch ➋ is set to fairing speakers. EXT = button out / HS = button in.

•Note that a “pop” sound may be heard when the HS/EXT switch is pressed. The sound is produced by the engagement of a set of relays, which is a normal sound.

•Adjust the audio volume of the accessory audio device to a comfort- able level. As the audio is feeding directly into the ComSystem, the audio will not be adjusted automatically with motorcycle speed as with the BMW K 1200 LT radio system.

•When the motorcycle ignition is turned “off”, the K1200LT radio system audio (if turned on) will play through the fairing speakers regardless of the position of the HS/EXT switch (defaults back to EXT). The accessory audio device cannot play through the fairing speakers at any time – only through the ComSystem / headsets.

Do not make adjustments to Accessory Audio Device controls while driving.
