3. Bike to bike communication

The X1slim can communicate with an unlimited number of riders. Before riding everyone must turn their units
on and make sure they are on the same main channel and talk group.    In order to transmit to other riders
you must use the voice activation, handle bar mount PTT button, or the PTT on the unit.    Once you talk,
everyone on your channel will hear. However, only one person at a time can talk.    It is a good idea to use
the word “over” when done talking. This way others will know that they can now say something back.    It is
strongly suggested that you practice talking back and forth in your house before actually using on a ride.
This way you can get a feel of what to expect.

Power On/Off:

Turn the power knob clockwise until you hear and feel it click on. Once the unit turns on,

do not turn the knob any further. You will notice that the LCD display will turn on. Keep in mind that the
power knob is also the voice activation sensitivity control. You must keep it at the lowest setting until you
decide to tune your sensitivity setting. To power the unit off, turn the knob counterclockwise until you hear the
clicking sound and see the display turns off.

Set Volume level:

There are two types of volume level control shown below:

Headset speaker volume:

set the desired volume level by pressing UP or DOWN button shortly.

Microphones volume:

There is no volume control for microphones. System has a default volume level.

Choose a channel for the group:

Press mode button one time, and choose the desired channel by

pressing UP or DOWN button. Press the PTT button to set. If all channels are busy, press mode button two
times and choose the desired talk group by pressing UP or DOWN button. Press the PTT button to set. Make
sure everyone in your group has set up same channel and talk group. Then you are ready to communicate.

Please keep in mind that main channels 8-15 are GMRS frequency as shown on the table below. If you want
to have a maximum range of 5 miles you need to choose one of these. Main Channels 1-7 and 16-22
operate on FRS (2 Mile) frequencies. Use these channels if you want to communicate to FRS type radios.

Channel 10 is an Emergency Channel. Use the emergency channel only for the purpose of soliciting or
rendering assistance to a traveler. This channel is also used by certain organizations during emergency
situations and may not necessarily be monitored.

Side tone:

When transmitting by using PTT or voice activation you will hear yourself in your own speakers.

This is called side tone. Side tone is what tells you that your microphone is working.

Using the voice activation feature:

The voice activation feature is what allows you to communicate

to other riders hands free (without using the PTT).    This feature can work very well but does need patience
and understanding. It is critical that you set the microphone sensitivity knob to the correct setting depending
on your particular scenario.    Failure to do so will either cause the microphone to never activate automatically
or activate and stay on for extended periods.    Start with the microphone sensitivity knob at the lowest setting.
Make sure your microphone is directly in front and as close to your lips as possible.    Turn the knob to 10:30
as if it were a clock.    Begin to say the words “CHECK CHECK ONE TWO” in a semi loud raised voice.
While you say this, listen to see if you hear the side tone coming through the speakers.    If you do NOT hear
yourself in the speakers you are either not talking loud enough or the microphone sensitivity is set too low.
Keep In mind that you are riding a motorcycle and the background noise will be loud.    The key is to set the
microphone sensitivity knob to as low of a setting as possible to where only your loud voice can activate it.
Turn the microphone sensitivity knob a little bit higher each time until you can hear yourself say “CHECK
CHECK ONE TWO ONE TWO” consistently as a side tone.    Once you achieve this you have found your
“sweet spot”.    You are now ready to ride.    Keep in mind that throughout your ride you may need to slightly
adjust the sensitivity depending on your surroundings.      If you set it too sensitive your microphone will be
activated by the wind keeping it keyed and preventing anyone else from talking.    It is suggested to practice
using this feature back and forth in the house before actually using while riding.    This way you can
familiarize yourself with back and forth communication.

* If you decide not to use the voice activation feature simply turn the knob all the way down and use
one of the PTT button options.

TOT function:

When you unintentionally set the voice activation level too high, the surrounding noise may

activate the microphones. You may not know that your microphone is keyed the entire time.    When that
happens, no one in your group can talk.    The new TOT function will notify you that your microphone is still
keyed on.    After ten seconds you will hear a short beeping sound.    After 5 more seconds it will beep
continuously for another 5 seconds.    If this happens make sure to immediately turn the microphone
sensitivity knob down until your microphone deactivates.    Carefully set your sensitivity again making sure
you have it set at a lower setting.

4. Rider to Passenger Communication

The X1slim does not require a separate unit for a passenger to communicate with the rider and others. In
order to connect a passenger you must purchase an additional headset and extension cord. Please contact
a dealer near you or call customer service.

Listening to bike to bike communication;

When connected,

Passenger can communicate with

the driver and other riders who are on the same channel.

Ways to talk to your group:

With a passenger connected, there are different ways to set up your

communication. The table below will show your options as to how rider and passenger can share talking.
