How to use the Intercom with two units
To use the intercom feature, be sure the both units are turned on and correctly
paired together.
Attention: For intercom communication between Driver and Passenger, there is no
need to keep the flip up antenna in the up position. For Bike-to-Bike intercom the
antenna must be in the upper position.
Manual activation
Press the Middle button on one of the two units. Communication is enabled and
remains active until you press again the middle button. The intercom need some
second to activate, you will hear a beep tone when the intercom is open.
Voice activation (VOX)
Simply start talking, after some seconds the communication will be opened and
will remain active for the time you are talking. If there is no conversation the
intercom will be closed after 20 seconds. If needed you can close the intercom
manually without waiting 20 seconds (just press the middle button).
If needed, you can temporarily disable the VOX feature simply by pressing the
Backward button for 7 sec. Two sound beep will advise you when the VOX is di-
sabled. To turn the VOX on again, just press the same button, one beep sound
will advise you that the VOX is now active (or just turn the unit off and on again).
Attention: The Voice activation (VOX) can open the intercom communication only
to the unit that was paired with the Middle button. If you chose to use a different
button (Rear or ), you will be able to active the intercom only manually.
Adjusting the volume
Your Midland BTNext uses AGC technology, which automatically adjusts the liste-
ning volume in relation to background noises.
However, it is also possible to manually adjust the volume by means of the "Volu-
me +" and "Volume -"buttons.
Attention: volume can be adjust only when an audio connection is active.
How to pair the BTNext to more than two units
The BTNext unit can be paired to maximum three other BT unit (four in total).
The BTNext has three main buttons (Forward, Middle and Rear). It is up to you
which button use to pair and activate the intercom, you are totally free to choose
the button you like more. The same button you will use to pair the unit will be also
used to activate the intercom communication.
Remember that each device can always be paired with other 3 units at your choi-
ce; as shown in the picture here below, also 'crossed' pairing can be done.
Rider2
For example you can decide to pair one motorbike rider unit to the Forward but-
ton, your passenger to the Middle button and another rider to the Rear button.
In this way you can have in total 4 units paired together and talk to each person,
one by one, simply by pressing the corresponding button (the same used for the
pairing). Every time you open the intercom connection to one person, the pre-
vious connection will be closed.
The connection is not a "chain", when two person are talking it is not possible to
break (interrupt) the communication by one of the other two units riding out of
the maximum distance range.
