3-way communications with your GPS Sat-Nav
The Intercom feature is temporarily disabled when commu
-
nication with your GPS Sat-Nav is active (street indication or
music). However it is possible to allow the passenger to listen,
by enabling a “3-way communication”.
When the communication with the GPS is active, briefly press
the “Intercom” button on the BT2 device connected to the GPS
Sat-Nav (you will hear an audio confirmation tone). The Pas
-
senger will now be able to listen to the same information/music
that the rider hears. To return to the private mode, press the
“Intercom” button once more (You will hear two audio confir
-
mation tones).
Using other bluetooth devices
Midland BT2 can also be paired with other Bluetooth devices
like MP3 players, Bluetooth adapters (for example BPA100) or
Two Way Radio transceivers with built-in Bluetooth.
This can be a great advantage as it is possible to then increa
-
se your “Bike to Bike range” up to 3 Miles!
To use these devices, be sure your BT2 and other device are
both turned on and correctly paired together, following the
pairing procedure described in the “Pairing the unit with other
Bluetooth devices” section.
Paired devices can be enabled or disabled without canceling
the pairing by simply pressing the “AUX” button.
› Disabling: press “AUX” button for 3 seconds (you will hear
two audio confirmation tones)
› Enabling: press “AUX” button for 3 seconds (you will hear
one audio confirmation tone)
In this case the device is simply temporarily disconnected from
the BT2 unit, although the devices continue to be paired.
Priority: communications with other Bluetooth devices
have a lower priority compared to those established with
a cell phone, GPS Sat-Nav and Intercom system. This
means that communications will always be disabled
when a call arrives, when the GPS Sat-Nav transmits in
-
structions, or when the Intercom feature is enabled.
Attention: if you use your GPS Sat-Nav to listen to music
(the communication with the GPS Sat-Nav is always acti
-
ve), all communications with other Bluetooth devices will
be disabled, as they have a lower priority.
Using a Bluetooth MP3 player
The Midland BT2 fully supports the A2DP protocol that ena
-
bles you to listen to stereo music and manage the main fea

tures of your MP3 player. It’s even possible to use the buttons
on the BT2 unit to manage the following play features: Play,
Pause, Forward and Backward.

com” button and than press it again to open the Intercom.
It is not possible to guarantee the full compatibility with
all the MP3 Bluetooth player in the market, because they
often use different or proprietary procedures.
Using a Bluetooth adapter:
Your Midland BT2 can be connected to an external Bluetooth
adapter (such as a BPA100) to use with audio devices without
built-in Bluetooth connection (like Two Way radio transceivers
or older GPS variants).
Using a Bluetooth Enabled Two Way Radio
The Midland BT2 can be connected to Bluetooth Enabled Two
Way Radio and used for bike to-bike communications. Pair
your BT2 with the Radio, as described in the “Pairing the unit
with other Bluetooth devices” chapter, then enable the Blue

tooth connection by pressing the button on the radio. This
will then allow you to transmit over much greater distances,
with more people at once, while still enjoying the flexibility and
