Easy to operate:
Designed to provide simple hands free communication. When installing set
up the volume, VOX and balance, then each time you used the system; plug
in Headset1 to turn ON and unplug to turn OFF. The intelligent active
volume adjustment system takes care of the volume and, along with VOX
(voice operation transmit) and music mute system - it’s all hands free.

disc and tie wrap mounting kit, a typical installation is the unit fixed
under the seat. The unit can be battery operated or powered from a 12V

The helmet kit assembly:
consists of two slim speakers and a
microphone which are Velcro attached into position, one speaker adjacent
to each ear and the bud microphone in front of the mouth (a boom mic in
the open face helmet kit). For flip helmets our bud microphones
work extremely well, with the microphone secured in the chin guard when
the flip is dropped the mic is automatically in the perfect position,
with boom mics it is often necessary to adjust the position which is
difficult and dangerous while riding. see
