It is very important
to properly set up and use these products as designed. Please do not make any
modifications or try to use these products with any non-recommended products or in any other way than
described.
DO NOT CUT OR MODIFY YOUR HELMETS.
Headset to radio interface leads - Parts 2059, 2063 and 2067
The interface lead has a black socket, a blue plug and a moulded single or twin pin jack plug that interfaces
into a specific bike-to-bike radio. The blue plug connects to the blue socket on
Part 2384
. The black socket
connects to the Autocom headset.
Handlebar push-to-talk - Part 2384
Attach the P-T-T switch unit to the extreme right of the handlebar grip
using the cable-ties provided. Crossing over the cable-tie will aid holding
the unit in place (as per photograph). When you route the cables along
the frame of the bike, care should be taken to ensure that the cable does
not interfere with any moving parts, i.e. the steering. Ensure that the
cable is not in a place where it may be crushed or severed by a panel or
the seat.
Avoid HT (sparkplug) leads.
For best results, you may find it better to
route the cable over the airbox, rather than around the airbox and tank
area, avoiding HT coils etc.
Radio Operation
Please refer to your radio instructions for setting up and use. Ensure that the other bike or bikes are set
to the same frequency/tone as your system. It is usually best to try this before you install the system.
Ready To Go
With the system set-up and attached to your body/tank bag, wearing a helmet with the headset installed,
connect the blue socket from the system to the blue plug and switch on the radio prior to connecting to
your headset as some radios emit a loud beep. Connect the black socket to the headset and set the radio
volume to a desired level, see how to get the best section on page 3.
In order to transmit, press and hold the red button on the P-T-T switch unit, speak into your microphone
and your speech will now be transmitted. When you release the button your radio will revert back to
standby. When your radio receives a signal transmitted from another system it will automatically go into
receive mode and the speech will be heard through your headset. It is important not to speak at the same
time as the other person transmitting.

The fabric is either taped or elasticated over the polystyrene
and so it is easy to install the speakers behind the lining.
Note that the wire should come out of the speaker facing the
back of the helmet.
Before replacing the cheek pads, tape the boom and the
headset loom to the outer shell or the back side of the cheek
pad. When the cheek pad is fitted back into the helmet, it will
secure the boom and loom inside the helmet.
