Description of the installation brackets
The Midland BTX1 can be mounted onto the helmet in two different ways: By
either using the plate with bi-adhesive strip, or the clamp. These methods allow
you to safely “mount” the BTX1 unit onto your helmet and to remove it at any time
in order to recharge or store it.
Plate with bi-adhesive strip
The mounting plate has a bi-adhesive strip on one
of its sides. To mount the plate in place, clean the
application area on the helmet surface, remove
the bi-adhesive film and place the mounting
plate on the helmet by applying pressure for a
few seconds to ensure it bonds with the helmet’s
surface.
Screw Clamp
Using the Allen Key, loosen the two screws on the clamp and place the rear plate
between the helmet padding and the external rigid protection. Then, tighten the
two screws in order to firmly mount the clamp in place. Inside the clamp is a small
plastic spacer that can be removed to give a tighter fit if required.
Fitting and removing your Midland BTX1
The BTX1 can be easily fitted onto the helmet by sliding it downwards so that it
fits into the slot of the selected mounting device (plate with bi-adhesive strip
or clamp). The BTX1 is held in place by the mounting clip located on the upper
section (A).
To detach the BTX1, simply press the mounting clip and push the unit upwards.
Switching your Midland BTX1 on and off
Switching the unit on:
Press and hold “Middle” button down for approximately 3 seconds until the BLUE
indicator lights.
Switching the unit off:
Press and hold both “Middle” and “Rear” buttons together for approximately 3
seconds until the RED indicator flashes 3 times, thus lessening the chances that
you might turn off the unit accidentally (especially whilst wearing gloves).
Operative “mode”
The BTX1 can operate in two main “modes”: Intercom and Phone.
The 3 multi function buttons can have different functionality depending on which
mode the unit is in at that moment.
›
In
“Intercom mode”
the middle buttons let you manage the communications
between driver and passenger
›
In
“Phone mode”
you can manage your Bluetooth cellular phone to place/
answer a phone call or to listen to music (in stereo mode). Please use your
phone responsibly and safely.
You can switch (toggle) from one mode to the other simply pressing the Mid-
dle button for 3 seconds. A voice announcement will tell in which mode you
are operating in.
The toggle sequence is the following:
›
Intercom mode (if another unit has been paired)
›
Phone mode
(if a phone has been paired)
Every time you turn on the unit, the default mode is Intercom (if it was previously
paired to another unit), otherwise it will be Phone (If it was paired to a phone).
If you need to know in which mode the unit currently is, just press the “
“ and “Volume –“ button together. A voice announcement will tell you the current
mode.
