Bluetooth - Interactive collection
INTERACTIVE FUNCTIONS
BATTERY CHARGING
The battery inside the helmet has to be recharged before using the
Interactive communication system. You need about 10 hours to completely
recharge the battery using the supplied battery charger. The Interactive
system works on its own for about 10 hours of communication when
the battery is completely recharged. You will have reduced volume
in audio, interference and problems with using it when the battery
is running down: recharge it. The battery should be recharged every
now and again if the system is not being used for long periods of
time. Switch off the helmet when recharging the battery.
How to charge the battery: Connect the battery up to the
mains (220V). Plug the battery charger connector into its socket
inside the helmet. You will know the connector has been plugged
in correctly and that recharging is in progress when the led lights
up on the battery charger. Charge the battery for at least 10 hours
before using Interactive for the first time. You will be able to
recharge for shorter periods of time afterwards, even though it
is always better to completely recharge the battery: a partial recharge
does not guarantee complete autonomy.
ATTENTION: use the supplied battery charger only. Do not charge
the battery with other devices. Do not wear the helmet when charging
the battery.
AFFILIATION
If two helmets want to communicate with each other, they have to
be affiliated, i.e. they must be "presented" to each other. The
relevant affiliation procedure must also be followed to make a helmet
communicate with a Bluetooth cell phone *. Remember that a helmet
may be affiliated either as Master or Slave. It is important to
know the difference to decide whether to affiliate your helmet as
Master or Slave. A helmet already affiliated as Master can be anyhow
re-affiliated as Slave and vice versa: you only have to repeat the
affiliation procedure. The difference between Master and Slave lies
substantially in the fact that with the intercom working (driver
and passenger on board), ONLY the Master helmet is able to hear
an incoming call by a repeated buzz in the helmet. You only have
to press the Master multi-functional button to answer the call,
temporarily disconnecting from the Slave. The Master will connect
up to the Slave again after the call has ended. The Slave helmet
has therefore only a passive function with the Intercom system on
and is controlled by the Master. The Master helmet must be affiliated
with both the Slave helmet and the cell phone if it has to communicate
with them. Instead when a user is riding the motorbike alone, both
if the helmet is Slave or Master and has a cell phone affiliated
to the helmet, he/she will be able to hear a repeated buzz if they
receive a call and will be able to answer it by pressing the multi-functional
button on the helmet (see "How to use the telephone" for other functions).
All affiliations remain in the memory even when the helmets are
switched off, and will still be there when they are switched on
again. The affiliation procedure will therefore only be repeated
if you want to change the helmet or the phone you wish to talk to.
Affiliation does not require any instruments so it can be done anywhere
and at any time.
HOW TO AFFILIATE TWO INTERACTIVE HELMETS
The operation must be done by keeping the two helmets near to each
other (1-3 metres): make sure there is no other Bluetooth apparatus
working within a range of 15 metres (cell phones, computers, gps,
etc..). Decide which helmet must be Master and which Slave. Master
or Slave affiliation differs in the way you press the button. The
two affiliations must be done in rapid succession. You must start
the affiliation procedure with both helmets switched off (led off).
1. Keep the key pressed for about 10 seconds to enter the affiliation
mode confirmed by the led flashing rapidly + a special buzz in the
earphone (attention: the led already lights up after 3 seconds without
flashing to indicate that the helmet is on: keep pressing the button
to enter the affiliation mode, "rapid flashing"). Do this on both
helmets. In this status both helmets are waiting to be affiliated
and both can either be Master or Slave.
2. Master helmet: Briefly press the multi-functional button once
again. The search for the Slave helmet is begun by doing this. This
procedure may require 4-6 seconds
3. Slave helmet: the helmet waits for 20 seconds to be affiliated
by a Master, this waiting stage is confirmed by the led flashing
rapidly
4. When the leds in the two helmets stop flashing and go on to flash
slowly (+ buzz in helmet) it means that they have found each other
and are affiliated. They automatically connect up and the intercom
system is ready to be used.
If the two helmets are not connected to each other at the end of
the affiliation procedure, it means that it has failed, a low note
in the earphone confirms failure. Switch off both helmets and repeat
the Master and Slave affiliation procedure. If two affiliated helmets
communicating with each other move away at a distance of more than
10 meters from each other the connection will be cut off: move them
closer for reconnection and press the button in the Master helmet
for two seconds (until the buzz in the earphone).
HOW TO AFFILIATE A BLUETOOTH CELL PHONE TO AN INTERACTIVE HELMET
The phone/helmet affiliation procedure is controlled through the
phone. The phone sees the helmet (either Master or Slave) as a Bluetooth
earphone. Consult your Bluetooth phone manual to check the affiliation
procedure that varies from one phone to another. When you have understood
the affiliation procedure for your phone, proceed with affiliating
the helmet. Start with the helmet switched off. 1. Enter affiliation
mode keeping the multi-functional button pressed for 10 seconds
until flashing starts (see "How to affiliate two interactive helmets"),
indicating the affiliation enablement phase. (note: this affiliation
procedure does not cancel out any previous affiliations between
the two helmets). 2. Proceed rapidly (within 20 seconds) with affiliation,
using the phone with the affiliation procedure appropriate for that
cell phone. A list of available Bluetooth devices will appear on
the display, the name: "Stilo xxx" will appear in the list of available
devices. Select "Stilo xxx". 3. At the request for a password enter
1111. The helmet will confirm affiliation completed through a buzz
in the helmet and brief flashing. 4. Switch off both phone and helmet
to memorize affiliation data. Switch off the helmet if affiliation
has not been successful (see how to switch off the helmet) and repeat
affiliation procedure right from the beginning. To check connection
between helmet and Bluetooth phone, briefly press the helmet button:
a message for vocal commands varying from one phone to another will
appear on the display.
HOW TO USE THE PHONE
Attention: not all Bluetooth phones have the same compatibility
with the Interactive system. Consult the attached list on recommended
Bluetooth phones. You can find updating and latest information on
the www.stilo.it. web site or else on www.vemarhelmets.it. The quality
and standard of audio can change from one telephone call to another
depending on the "bridge" hooked up to cell phone.
How to answer a telephone call. If a call comes to the cell
phone affiliated to the Master helmet you will hear a double buzz
in your helmet that acts as a telephone ringing, even if the Master
helmet is in communication with the Slave helmet (intercom function).
Briefly press the multi-functional button on the Master helmet to
answer the call. Eventual connection with the Slave helmet will
be temporarily cut off as soon as the Master answers the call. An
interruption buzz will be heard in the Slave helmet announcing that
it has been disconnected. The Master will automatically connect
up to the Slave helmet again at the end of the call (if it was connected
before the call came). A call can be cancelled by pressing the button
on the helmet for two seconds.
How to make a phone call. You can make a phone call as you
would normally with the phone, if the helmet is switched on but
not connected to the other helmet. Digit the number, send the call
from the phone and then press the button on the helmet for 2 seconds.
Communication will be passed to the helmet. Once the call has been
made by the phone, some cell phones such as Sony Ericsson T68i and
T39M, pass the communication directly to the helmet without having
to press the button on it. If however a Master and Slave are connected
up to each other, they will have to be disconnected before making
a call.
To disconnect two helmets connected up: Press the button
of either one or the other of the helmets for two seconds (until
the buzz): the helmets will be disconnected. Make the call as described
above. At the end of the call, press the Master helmet key for 2
seconds to connect up the helmets again. The two helmets will connect
up again to each other in a second.
