Installation into Full-Coverage & Flip-front Style Helmets
The full-coverage type of helmet presents special challenges for headset instal-
lation. If you do not feel you are up to the task, you may send your "un-modi-
fied" helmet to our factory in Tucson and we will perform the installation for a
nominal fee. (Please call first to insure that J&M is able to install a headset
into your particular brand/model of helmet.)
1. Most full coverage-style helmets have cheek pads or a complete nose sec-
tion that can be removed. Carefully do so at this time, paying special attention
so as not to break or damage any of the polystyrene parts.
2. Using a headset speaker as a guide, mark the circular pieces of styrene to
be removed from the back of the ear area of the nose section or the cheek pad.
See Figure 7. With an Exacto®knife, cut a hole slightly smaller than the speak-
er so that the speaker will "press fit" into the hole without damaging the
styrene. An airtight seal is necessary to preserve bass response as the sound
pressure from the back of the speaker housing should not be allowed to mix
with the sound pressure from the front. Also, be careful not to cut or damage
the fabric lining.
3. Locate an area in the nose section just to the left of center to mount the
microphone. See Figure 8. Make sure that this placement will not interfere with
any venting mechanisms or other parts of the helmet upon re-installation of the
nose section.
Using an Exacto®knife, cut a hole of sufficient size to allow the microphone
to be mounted through the nose section and be pressed against the inside
shell. See Figure 9. Insert the microphone cartridge through the hole from the
back side, install the rubber boot and push the mike back into the hole from
the front side. See Figure 10.
If the helmet is the flip-front style: Position the boom microphone clamp on
the left side of the helmet so that the microphone lines up with the wearer’s
mouth. Tighten the clamp with the rubber spacer in place. See Figure 13 —
Flip-Front.
4. Place the speakers into the cheekpads. See Figure 11.
5. Clean the inside of the helmet shell where the speakers and microphone will
be positioned with a cloth dampened with alcohol. Peel the backing from each
supplied Velcro pad and press it into the proper position for the speakers and
microphone to contact when the helmet is re-assembled.
6. Reinstall the nose section and/or cheek pads. Push the speakers and micro-
phone firmly against the Velcro®pads.
7. Mount the clamp in the proper position on the left bottom edge of the hel-
met and tighten the clamp with the rubber friction spacer in place. See Figure
13.
8. Using the included wooden tool, be careful to push the wires into the gap
between the helmet liner and shell. See Figure 14.
Notes: When using your intercom system, regardless of headset brand or type, it is impor-
tant to turn the intercom volume level high enough for comfortable conversation, but not
any higher. Unnecessarily high intercom volume levels will only increase the unwanted wind
and background noise you may experience.

Installation into a 3/4-style Helmet
1. Begin by examining the ear pocket area in your hel-
met. Make sure that there is sufficient room to mount
the speaker in the ear pocket. If you will be mounting
the J&M DynaPort®speakers also make sure that you
can position the porting tube down along the seam in
the cheek pad. See Figure 1. (It is important to have
the helmet fit and feel the same after the speakers
are mounted as it did before the headset was
installed.) The porting tube should be positioned to
allow the sound pressure from this tube to be direct-
ed out of the ear pocket. This will help enhance bass
response.
Some three-quarter style helmets, Shoei and HJC,
for example, have ear pockets that are a bit too small
for the speaker to be properly placed. In this case fold
out the interior lining and with an Exacto®knife care-
fully remove a very thin "half moon" of polystyrene to
allow the speaker to be positioned slightly higher and
deeper into the ear pocket. See Figures 3 and 4. This
should keep the speaker from contacting your ears.
Be careful to remove only the minimum amount nec-
essary, no more than 1/4 of an inch.
Once you have made room for and/or positioned
the speakers, remove them.
2. Clean the bottom of each ear pocket with a cloth
dampened with alcohol. Peel the backing from the
supplied Velcro®pads and press them into the bottom
of each ear pocket.
3. Position the boom microphone/amplifier clamp
assembly on the left side of the helmet so that the
microphone lines up with the wearer’s mouth. Mark
this position. See Figure 2.
Tighten the clamp to the helmet with the rubber fric-
tion spacer in place.
4. Position the speakers in their proper place in the
ear pockets and press them firmly onto the Velcro®
pads.
5. Pull the large or small wind sock (which-ever you
prefer) over the microphone.
6. Using the enclosed wooden tool, carefully push the
speaker wires into the gap between the helmet liner
and shell. See Figure 6.

tion button (A) for about 35 seconds, or until blue LED flashes rapidly.
When the two headsets pair together, the LED's will flash at a slower
rate.
3. Turn off both the "master" and the "slave" HS-BLU277, then turn the
"master" back on and put it into standard pairing mode (rapid blue
flashing). Select the hands-free menu on the cell phone, go into the
Bluetooth section and search for devices. When JM_CORP_HHS is dis-
played on your screen and you are asked for a passkey, enter: 0000.
Your cell phone should now be paired with the "master" HS-BLU277.
4. Turn the "slave" HS-BLU277 back on and allow it to reconnect to the
"master".
5. Use the volume Up (B) or Down (C) buttons to adjust the intercom
voice volume for each headset. When using your HS-BLU277 head-
sets in this configuration, it is important to adjust the headset volume
level high enough for comfortable conversation, but not any higher, as
unnecessarily high intercom volume settings will only increase/amplify
unwanted wind and/or digital noise.
6. To mute the microphone at any time, in either headset, press and
hold the volume down button (C) for about 3 seconds, at which time
you will hear an alert tone to indicate muting. To un-mute the micro-
phone, press and hold the volume-up button (B) for about 3 seconds,
at which time you will hear the alert tone indicating the un-muting.
7. While using the intercom, if the "master" HS-BLU277 receives an
incoming cell-phone call, the helmet-to-helmet intercom will be inter-
rupted and incoming call indicator "alert-tone" will be heard in the
"master's" headset speakers. If the cell phone is set to auto-answer
mode, the call will automatically be connected to the "master", if the
phone is not set to auto-answer the multifunction button (A) can be
depressed briefly to connect the call.
8. Use the volume Up (B) or Down (C) buttons to adjust the phone vol-
ume during the cell phone conversation. Additional cell phone volume
adjustments can also be made on the cell phone itself, but during
actual conversation only.
9. To terminate the phone call from the HS-BLU277, depress the multi-
function button (A) briefly or wait until the party that you were speak-
ing with hangs up, the helmet-to-helmet intercom feature (if connect-
ed) will resume when the call has ended.
10. To utilize "voice command" dialing ("master only), (the cell phone
must support this feature), press the multifunction button (A) once
and listen for the voice/tone prompt from the cell phone. To redial the
last number called, briefly press the multifunction button (A) twice.
Note: J&M’s Bluetooth helmet-to-helmet intercom software profile (JMDPI) was
designed for wireless driver/passenger (same motorcycle) communications, and
while it can be used for bike-to-bike communications, the long range performance
cannot be guaranteed.
Pairing and Operation with a 2nd HS-BLU277 Bluetooth
Headset in the JMDPI Profile, Simultaneously with a
Bluetooth Enabled GPS Command Center.
1. In this linking scenario, first turn on the HS-BLU277 headset that you
want to be the "master" and put it into a pairing mode by first press-
ing and holding the volume-up button (B) together with pressing and
holding the multifunction button (A) for about 35 seconds, or until the
blue LED flashes rapidly.
2. Next turn on the HS-BLU277 headset that you want to be the "slave"
and put it into a pairing mode by first pressing and holding the vol-
ume-down button (C) together with pressing and holding the multifunc-
tion button (A) for about 35 seconds, or until the blue LED flashes
rapidly. When the two headsets pair together, the LED's will flash at a
slower rate.
3. Turn off both the "master" and the "slave" HS-BLU277, then turn the
"master" back on and put it into standard pairing mode (rapid blue
flashing). From the menu on the GPS command center, go into the
Bluetooth section and search for "headset". When JM_CORP_HHS is
displayed on your screen and you are asked for a passkey, enter:
0000. Your device should now be paired with the HS-BLU277.
4. Turn the "slave" HS-BLU277 back on and allow it to reconnect to the
"master".
5. Use the volume-up (B) or down (C) buttons to adjust the intercom
voice volume for each headset. When using your HS-BLU277 headset
in this configuration, it is important to adjust the headset volume level
high enough for comfortable conversation, but not any higher, as
unnecessarily high intercom volume settings will only increase/amplify
unwanted wind and/or digital noise.
6. To mute the microphone at any time, in either headset, press and hold
the volume down button (C) for about 3 seconds, at which time you
will hear an alert tone to indicate muting. To un-mute the microphone,
press and hold the volume-up button (B) for about 3 seconds, at
which time you will hear the alert tone indicating the un-muting.
7. If you wish to use the headset cell-phone function simultaneously with
your GPS command center, you will need to link the cell phone directly
to the GPS unit as per the linking/operation instructions included with
your particular unit.
8. While using the intercom, if the "master" HS-BLU277 receives an
incoming navigation command/music from the GPS/or cell-phone call,
the helmet-to-helmet intercom will be interrupted. Once the navigation
command/ music/ or cell-phone call have been terminated from the
GPS the intercom will return.
9. Use the volume up (B) or down (C) buttons on the headset to adjust
the music volume, navigation command volume and/ or cell phone vol-
ume levels.
10. Additional music, navigation command and cell phone volume adjust-
ments can usually be made inside the GPS command center itself,
but the flexibility of these adjustments depends totally upon the par-
ticular brand/model of the GPS unit you are using.

Operation with a Wired J&M Corded Headset Connected to
the Rear Plug on the HS-BLU277.
1. Turn on the HS-BLU277 with the on/off intercom volume control (D)
and adjust the intercom volume level between the two helmets, to a
comfortable level. When using your HS-BLU277 headset in this config-
uration, it is important to adjust the intercom volume level high
enough for comfortable conversation, but not any higher, as unneces-
sarily high intercom volume settings will only increase/amplify unwant-
ed wind and/or ambient noise.
2. If you wish to link your HS-BLU277 to any other Bluetooth device,
while in this wired driver/passenger intercom configuration, refer to
the pairing and operational scenarios above.
