50 SOFTWARE SETTINGS
CONFIGURATION
In the Com U1 app and in Device Manager
there is a choice of configuration options for
the ConnectedRide Com U1.
Device language
You can change the language of the
ConnectedRide Com U1 to suit your
language preferences.
Voice commands in the following languages
are supported:
German
English
French
Spanish
Italian
Japanese
Chinese
Russian
If you select a language in which voice com-
mands are not supported, only the English
voice commands work. There is a list of the
voice commands for other languages in the
Com U1 app.
The reliability of the voice commands can
vary, depending on environmental conditions
such as riding speed, helmet type and noise
levels in the immediate vicinity. Use the
wind cover supplied with the microphone
to improve performance.
The language setting is retained when the
communication device is switched off and
subsequently switched on again.
Audio equaliser
The audio equaliser is deactivated by de-
fault. The decibel levels of various frequency
ranges can be tuned as follows:
Balance: All frequency ranges are tuned to
the same volume (0 dB).
Bass Boost: Bass audio is boosted (20-
250 Hz).
Mid Boost: Midrange audio is boosted
(250 Hz-4 kHz).
Treble Boost: Treble audio is boosted (4-
20 kHz).
VOX phone
Voice Operated Switch (VOX) is a function
for that enables incoming calls to be accep-
ted by a voice command of the user's choice
(e.g. say "Hello" aloud) or by blowing a puff
of breath on to the microphone. The VOX
feature is activated by default. It is deactiv-
ated temporarily when the intercom is con-
nected or when the motorcycle’s TFT display
or a navigation device is connected. When
the feature is deactivated, the middle but-
ton has to be pressed to accept an incoming
phone call.
VOX intercom
The function enables communication with
the most recently connected user to be re-
sumed. Communication can be started by
a voice command of the user's choice (for
example "Hello" said aloud) or by a puff of
breath blown on to the microphone. An in-
tercom communication started by a voice
command is closed automatically if nothing
is said by either user for 20 seconds. The
VOX intercom feature is deactivated by de-
fault.
A communication started manually by press-
ing a button also has to be ended by press-
ing a button. If a communication was star-
ted by a voice command and subsequently
ended by pressing the middle button, the
intercom function cannot subsequently be
restarted by the voice command. It first has
to be activated by pressing the middle but-
ton. This is to prevent unwanted activation
of the intercom feature by wind noise, for
example.
VOX sensitivity
The sensitivity of the VOX feature can be
adapted to suit conditions. The sensitivity
settings range from stage 1 (low) to stage 5
(high). The default setting is stage 3.
