AUDIO SOURCES AND PRIORITIES If two connected audio sources try to play audio simultaneously, the cardo BK-1 automatically determines which audio source to play through the speakers based on the priority of the connected devices. Higher Priority Lower Priority 1. Mobile Phone audio or GPS instructions 2. Intercom/Click-to-Link (CTL) 3. A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) audio 4. Multi-Port(for corded connection i.e. Music Players) cardo BK-1 | 19 MAN00066 CARDO BK-1 J-104.indd 19 8/4/11 11:54 AM For example:

Incoming mobile phone calls will interrupt ongoing intercom calls Incoming intercom calls will interrupt the A2DP audio source

 Click-to-Linkcalls and Intercom calls have the same priority:

 A Click-to-Link request cannot interrupt an Intercom call in progress, and vice-versa. IC (Intercom) Busy Tone: If you are on a mobile call, Click-to-Link call, or receiving GPS instructions and Cyclist A or Cyclist B try to connect to you for an IC Call, you will both hear a busy tone (double beep). 5.InteRComoPeRAtIon 5.1. CONFIGURING THE INTERCOM The cardo BK-1 Intercom allows Bicycle-to-Bicycle full duplex communication at a range of up to 800 m /

2,600 ft. (subject to terrain). Pairing with another cardo BK-1 unit To chat with another cardo BK-1 user via Intercom, first pair the cardo BK-1 devices to each other. Pairing is a one-time process. Once paired, the cardo BK-1 units will automatically recognize each other whenever they are within range. NOTE:

The retail package of the DUO version contains two factory-paired units. Intercom communication is possible between up to three users, i.e. you and two other cardo BK-1 users through the two available pairing channels: Channel A and Channel B Channel B Channel A The Channel A and Channel B buttons on your cardo BK-1 are used to:

Pair a cardo BK-1 Intercom partner to the channel Connect to a cardo BK-1 Intercom partner paired on this channel 20 | cardo BK-1 MAN00066 CARDO BK-1 J-104.indd 20 8/4/11 11:54 AM INTERCOM PAIRING CHANNELS AND PAIRING LED INDICATIONS INTERCOM CHANNEL Channel A Channel B PAIRING / CONNECTION BUTTON Channel A BUTTON Channel B BUTTON PAIRING MODE LED INDICATORS Rapid RED flashing Rapid BLUE flashing 5.1a. TWO-WAY INTERCOM If you have purchased the cardo BK-1 DUO, both units are factory-paired and configured to communicate via their respective Channel A Buttons. If for any reason you have to pair them again, OR if you purchased a single cardo BK-1 and wish to pair with a second unit to make Intercom calls, proceed as follows:

E N G L I S H Use Channel A or Channel B First BK-1 Unit Second BK-1 Unit BASIC INTERCOM PAIRING:

1. Check that both BK-1 devices are turned ON and in Standby mode. (single BLUE flash every 3 seconds) 2. Choose an available channel to pair the first BK-1

(Channel A or Channel B). NOTE: Selecting a Channel that is already in use will override the existing paired cardo BK-1 on that Channel with the newly paired cardo BK-1. 3. Press and hold the chosen Channel Button (A or B) on the first BK-1 for at least 6 seconds until the BLUE or RED Light begins flashing rapidly, indicating it is in Intercom Pairing mode (See Table in section 5.1). 4. Immediately repeat Step 2-3 for the second cardo BK-1. Both units will now be in Intercom Pairing mode. 5. After a few seconds, both cardo BK-1 devices will show a solid light for 2 seconds, indicating that they are now paired, connected and ready to use. NOTE: If Pairing is not completed within two minutes, the cardo BK-1 will return to Standby mode. cardo BK-1 | 21 MAN00066 CARDO BK-1 J-104.indd 21 8/4/11 11:54 AM 5.1b. THREE-WAY INTERCOM If you have purchased the cardo BK-1 DUO, both units are factory-paired and configured to communicate via their respective Channel A Buttons. To pair a third cardo BK-1 use Channel B. To set up three-way intercom conference mode proceed as follows:

Cyclist 2 Use Channel A Use Channel B Cyclist 3 Cyclist 1 In this configuration Cyclist 1 is paired to Cyclist 2 and also to Cyclist 3. PAIRING THREE CARDO BK-1 UNITS 1. Cyclist 1 pairs their device to Cyclist 2 using Channel A as described in section 5.1.1. (BASIC INTERCOM PAIRING) 2. Now Cyclist 1 pairs their device to Cyclist 3 using Channel B as described in section 5.1.1. (BASIC INTERCOM PAIRING) The Three-Way Conference Intercom Pairing is now complete and ready to use. IMPORTANT: Three-Way Conference Mode Considerations When in Intercom Conference mode with 2 other participants, you will not be able to receive mobile phone calls or GPS navigation instructions as long as the conference call is in progress. 22 | cardo BK-1 MAN00066 CARDO BK-1 J-104.indd 22 8/4/11 11:54 AM 5.2.
