shouldermic (as shown).
2) The following will occur:
• The shouldermic speaker will mute and
portable radio receive audio will be
routed to the helmet earphones.
• The shouldermic microphone will be
muted and the helmet microphone will
now be activated when the PTT switch
on the shouldermic is pressed.
• The wireless transceiver in the shoulder-
mic will automatically power-on (auto
power-on mode) and the status indicator
LED will begin flashing.
OPERATION
OPERATING MODE 1—HELMET
DISCONNECTED
1) With the accessory connector attached to the
portable radio, turn the radio on. (Note: the
switch on the radio accessory connector is
non-functioning and reserved for future use)
2) Press the PTT switch shown to transmit
using the shouldermic microphone.
NOTE: Pressing the PTT switch at the port-
able radio does not activate this accessory
microphone.
3) Receive audio will be muted at the portable
radio when this shouldermic is attached and
will be routed to the shouldermic speaker.
PTT Switch
OPERATING MODE 3— MOUNT
MOTORCYCLE
After a pair (see PAIR procedure) has been
established between the shouldermic and the
motor kit, the status LED at both devices will
display a green pulse every 7 seconds.
If the green pulse every 7 seconds is being
displayed, the handlebar PTT switches are
available for use:
1) The black switch, when pressed, will key the
motorcycle mobile radio and cause radio trans-
mission from the helmet microphone over the
mobile radio. The larger red PTT status LED
will light at the motor.
2) The red switch, when pressed, will key the
Siren PA feature and cause a PA Broadcast
from the helmet microphone over the siren
speaker.
IMPORTANT: If the internal Li-Ion battery
were to fail, the shouldermic and helmet head-
set will be unaffected and will continue to
operate with the portable radio.

7) Press the black mobile radio PTT
switch at the handlebar and speak
directly into the helmet microphone.
NOTE: When performing a mobile
radio broadcast for the first time, it is
more than likely that the volume will
need to be adjusted. Too much
volume will allow wind noise dis-
tortion at speed,and not enough
volume will be difficult to hear.
Adjust the helmet microphone mo-
bile radio transmit volume with a
small flat blade screwdriver at the
transceiver module.
IMPORTANT: Set the helmet
microphone volume to the same
volume broadcast by the mobile
radio handmic. This can be accom-
plished very easily by alternatively
monitoring and comparing (using
another radio) the helmet micro-
phone transmission volume with the
handmic transmission volume.
NOTE: When testing volume, make
sure the helmet microphone is on
axis (not rotated) and held close to
the users mouth (within 1/4”).
6) Adjust helmet microphone PA
volume at the siren amplifier
NOTE: An additional PA gain adjust-
ment is available at the transceiver
module. Use a small flat blade screw-
driver at this position if additional
volume adjustment is needed.
NOTE: When testing PA volume,
make sure the siren speaker is directed
to an open area to avoid improper
feedback (squealing).
NOTE: When testing volume, make
sure the helmet microphone is on axis
(not rotated) and held close to the
users mouth (within 1/4”).
NOTE: When performing a PA
broadcast for the first time, it is more
than likely that the volume will need
to be adjusted. Too much volume will
cause a feedback squeal, and not
enough volume will be difficult to
hear.
5) Press the red PA broadcast PTT
switch at the handlebar as shown and
speak directly into the helmet micro-
phone. WARRANTY

INSTALLATION
1) Attach accessory connector to
portable radio.
Helmet
Connection
NOTE: The helmet connector is
polarized so that it must be rotated
to the proper position before it will
snap into place. When properly
oriented, the coils in the cable
should lay against the officer’s
uniform (just above the badge if
worn at the lapel).
NOTE: Use this orienting proce-
dure to simplify connecting the
helmet to the shouldermic.
2) Connect Helmet.
3) Select POWER ON/OFF MODE:
The wireless transceiver in the shouldermic may
be configured for “auto power-on” mode or
“manual power-on” mode using the black
“Power on-off” switch:
NOTE: Shouldermics are shipped from the
factory pre-programmed for auto power-on, and
it is recommended to use the auto power-on
mode during normal operation:
“Auto power-on” mode causes the wireless
transceiver to power on automatically whenever
it is provided with battery power. Battery power
is applied to the wireless transceiver whenever
the helmet headset connection is made, and will
cause the transceiver to power on.
“Manual power-on” mode causes the wireless
transceiver to be powered on when the power
on-off button is pressed at the top of the shoul-
dermic. The helmet headset must be connected
to perform a manual power-on. To perform a
manual power-on, connect the headset and press
and hold the power on-off switch for 2-3 sec-
onds until the small status LED lights. Release
the switch.

4) PAIR Shouldermic with Motorcycle:
After the power-on mode has been se-
lected and configured, the shouldermic
must be “paired” to a motor kit. Pairing
establishes a unique link between the
wireless shouldermic on the officer and
the motor kit on his bike that will not
interfere or be interfered with when other
wireless motorcycle systems come within
range. Once a pairing procedure has been
completed, it is “remembered” by both
the motor kit and by the shouldermic. A
new pair may be established at any time,
but until a new pair is established, the
shouldermic and the motor kit will re-
main “faithful”, responding only to their
mate. They will remember who their
mate is—even after having been powered
off.
A) Connect the helmet to the shoulder-
mic. The wireless device in the shoulder-
mic will power on (auto power-on mode)
and the LED will begin to flash.
NOTE: Helmet must be connected to the
shouldermic to power on.
B) Press the power switch for 2-3
seconds until the shouldermic LED
transitions to a solid color, then re-
lease. The wireless device will now
power off.
C) Verify that the motor kit is pow-
ered off, but has power connected to
it (ignition turned on or directly
connected to battery—same proce-
dure for power down as step B).
D) From the powered off condition,
press the power switch at the control
head as shown for 7-9 seconds until
the LED begins toggling red-green-
red-green, then release. The motor
kit has now powered on into pairing
mode and is searching for a mate.
E) From the powered off condition,
press the power switch at the shoul-
dermic as shown for 7-9 seconds
until the LED begins toggling red-
green-red-green, then release. The
shouldermic has now powered on
into pairing mode and is searching
for a mate.
NOTE: Within 15 seconds the wire-
less connection will be established
and both devices will display a green
status LED flash every 7 seconds,
indicating that they have been suc-
cessfully paired to each other.
NOTE: Reverse the 2-3 second proce-
dure to power off. The status LED will
transition to a solid color after the 2-3
second period, indicating that the switch
may now be released and the unit will
power off.
Changing power-on modes
Verify the transceiver is powered on.
Press the power switch quickly 3 times
within one second to place the transceiver
in manual power-on mode. Press the
power switch quickly 4 times within one
second to place the transceiver in auto
power-on mode.
