Two-way radio Interface - Bike to bike using a mobile radio -

Adding a mobile radio will allow communication to another radio

To add a two-way radio, a radio adapter lead is required. This plugs into the StarCom 6-pin socket labeled RADIO and the other end to the radio.  When connected, the volume level of the radio will need to be adjusted to give the required volume in the helmet. Always set the volume low and gradually increase to the desired level. To operate, turn on and then place in a safe place (waterproof pocket etc.).

With the radio connected, the rider can transmit to a distant radio by using the PTT switch.

Music Interface portable personal music systems

To add music to the system, a music lead is required. The lead plugs into the headphone output from the music player and into the StarCom unitÆs 'AUDIOÆ input. When connected the volume level of this music system will need to be adjusted to give the required music volume in the helmet. Always set the volume low and gradually increase to the desired level.

Music Interface Installed car radio system

When a music system is installed on the bike an isolated stereo cable is required. This is because a direct connection will allow ignition noise to be picked up and the connection to the speakers may cause damage to the systems.

Part number MUS-03 is an isolated cable that will connect to the speaker cables on the on- bike system. If the music system has an audio out 3.5mm jack socket on the rear, then a MUS-04 cable will plug in directly.

Mobile phone Interface

To add a mobile phone to the system, a phone adapter kit is required. This includes a phone adapter which plugs into the phone, and a 3.5mm to 2.5mm jack lead to connect the adapter to the StarCom unit. The mobile phone must have the facility to auto answer an incoming call. Once set in this mode, the phone is plugged into the system, turned on, and then placed in a safe place (waterproof pocket etc.).

When the phone rings the StarCom unit will mute music, if playing, and allow a normal phone conversation. When connected, the volume level of the phone will need to be adjusted to give the required volume in the helmet. Always set the volume low and gradually increase to the desired level.

Always set the volume low and gradually increase to the desired level.
