Busy Status: 

On the

pro

, if you attempt to start a Buddy 

Intercom call with a Buddy that is already on a Phone/GPS/Intercom 

call, you will hear a double beep indicating the Buddy is busy.

Reconnecting the Intercom: 

If the 

scala rider Q2 

pro

 and its 

Intercom Buddy headset go out of range and disconnect from each 

other, the 

scala rider Q2 

pro

Intercom Buddy for five minutes.

manually reconnect

 at any time by pressing the MC Button 

(single tap for Primary Buddy and double tap for Secondary Buddy).

Receiving Intercom calls

If you are not speaking with any one, once the other party tries to 

initiate a Buddy Intercom call, the call will begin immediately.

TROUBLESHOOTING THE INTERCOM: 

First, make sure your microphone is located properly in front of the 

center of your mouth.
The scala rider Q2 

pro

 is designed for use in loud environments. 

Please make sure to test the Intercom functionality in a LOUD 

environment, such as next to an idling motorcycle.

Please also verify that the headsets were paired together properly by 

following the instructions in the relevant Setup sections.

Enable/Disable Voice Connect feature (VOX)

The 

scala rider Q2 

pro

 offers VOX technology for safe and hands-free 

operation of some key functions.
While on standby press and hold the Volume Up and Volume Down 

Buttons simultaneously for three seconds until you hear a beep. (2 

beeps when disabled).  

The headset will display a solid blue light indicating that the VOX 

function is enabled. The headset will display a solid red light 

indicating that the VOX function is disabled.  

The default status is Voice Connect enabled.

NOTE:

 The Enable/Disable Voice Connect feature affects only the 

Intercom functionality.

Setting Voice Connect Intercom preference (Primary vs. 

Secondary Buddy)

The headset’s Voice Connect feature allows you to start a Buddy 

Intercom call by simply speaking into the microphone. You can 

define which of the two Buddy headsets you wish to connect to 

when using Voice Connect Intercom.

NOTE: 

The Primary Buddy has priority by default.
