How to use the wired audio input

Your Midland BTX1 FM is also supplied with a wired audio input (AUX), that can

be used to connect an audio source, like an iPod (or any other MP3 Player) or a

PMR446 transceiver for group communication or for a coverage increase.

Listening to music

To listen to music from the wired input, connect the audio source using the op-

tional AUX cable.

The volume buttons (Vol + and Vol -) cannot be used to adjust the volume of the

wired audio source. The AGC system with automatically increase the volume on

higher speed.

Attention: never set the volume of the MP3 Player to the maximum possible. Nor-

mally the best level is about the 70% of the maximum.

Hint: We recommend that you perform a few tests adjusting the volume of your

iPod/MP3 player so at the normal speed the Headset volume is suited to your

needs. The AGC system will automatically increase the volume on higher speed.

Make a note to remember this setting for future trips.

Enabling/disabling the wired input

If needed the wired input can be enabled or disabled:

Enabling/Disabling: Make a Long press on the “Middle” and “Forward” button (you

will hear one audio beep tone for enabling conrmation and two audio beep tone

for disabling).

Using a PMR446 transceiver with the cable connection

In order to connect the transceiver to your Midland BTX1 FM, you need to purcha-

se the specic 2.5mm plug AUX cable, sold separately.

ome manufacturers radios use a dierent pin conguration, so we recommend

that you ask your dealer as to which cable is best suited to your needs.

The cable connected to the transceiver normally has also a PTT button that can

be placed on the handlebar of your bike or held in your hand (If you are the pas-

sanger rider).

To communicate via the attached radio, press the PTT button to speak and release

it to listen. It is not possible to talk and listen simultaneously.

Adjust the volume of the transceiver to your needs, remembering that the volume

adjustment is controlled by the automatic AGC system and that it will therefore

be automatically increased in relation to background noise.

If you wish to use a PMR446 transceiver for group communications and simulta-

neously maintain the Intercom feature enabled between two or more BTX1 FM

devices, you must remember that every time you talk to communicate with the

PMR 446 transceiver (pressing the PTT button), you will also activate the intercom

of the BTX1 FM to the unit connected to the “Middle” button (thanks to the VOX

feature).
