The intercom will mute the music from all audio sources when VOX is engaged, and return the music 3.5 seconds after the last VOX input is received. The 3.5 second delay spans the natural gaps that occur from voice inflections and minor turns of the head (away from microphone) that occur while riding.

The optional rider / passenger PTT switch will also activate intercom, thus allowing both the rider and passenger the enjoyment of the two- way communication when using two-way radios.

When riding in such extreme noise conditions that make VOX activation of the intercom impractical, just turn the VOX sensitivity knob counterclockwise fully and use the PTT switches with two-way radios turned “off” to communicate on the intercom system.

The music heard through the ComSystem is imported from radio amplifier output to the front fairing speakers, which means that if the radio fader is set to fade out the front fairing speakers, the ComSystem will not receive audio input from the radio. The radio fader control has no affect on the audio front-to-rear balance heard in the headsets through the ComSystem. The audio level balance of the ComSystem has no front-to-rear or left-to-right balance. However, the left-to-right balance of the radio amplifier will impact the audio signal going to the ComSystem, since the source (front fairing speaker leads) would be affected by that adjustment.

We recommend setting the audio music automatic speed adjustment to 4. Most riders will find this the most comfortable setting for volume- to-speed increase.

Note:

For maximum enjoyment of the system, it is imperative that the helmet headset microphone placement be correct, as advised in the headset installation instructions. Too much gap between the mouth and microphone will result in excessive noise entering the system and imperfect intercom operation / VOX switching.

Risk of injury! Do not make adjustments to ComSystem controls while driving. You may be distracted, lose control of the motorcycle and be seriously injured.
