Some information on BLUETOOTH®
Bluetooth® is an industrial specification for wireless personal area networks
(WPAN).
It provides a standard, inexpensive and safe method to exchange information
between different devices through a safe short-radius radio frequency.
Bluetooth® looks for the devices within a radius of a few dozen metres and if
these devices are covered by the signal, it allows them to communicate with
one another. These devices can be palm-held devices, mobile phones, perso-
nal computers, laptop computers, printers or digital cameras.
Bluetooth® technology does not have infinite resources and therefore can
connect only a definite number of devices at the same time.The resources it
consumes depends on the technology of the peripheral. For example, an MP3
player uses all the available resources to offer the best sound quality and so
often connection to other devices is not possible.
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP)
This profile defines how high quality audio (stereo or mono) can be streamed
from one device to another over a Bluetooth® connection. For example, music
streamed from a mobile phone to a wireless headset.
Hands-Free Profile (HFP)
This is commonly used to allow car hands-free kits to communicate with mo-
bile phones in the car.Most bluetooth®headsets implement both Hands-Free
Profile and Headset Profile, because of the extra features in HFP for use with a
mobile phone. For example: last number redial, call waiting, voice dialing.
Headset Profile (HSP)
This is the most commonly used profile, providing support for the popular
Bluetooth®Headsets to be used with mobile phones. It relies on SCO for
minimal controls including the ability to ring, answer a call, hang up and
adjust the volume.
Intercom Profile (ICP)
This is often referred to as the walkie-talkie profile. It is another TCS (Telephone
Control protocol Specification) based profile, relying on SCO to carry the
audio. It is proposed to allow voice calls between two Bluetooth®capable
handsets, over Bluetooth®

The passenger cable kit contains a spiral cable that allows the connection
between a helmet with the start communication system kit + SCS kit and ano-
ther helmet which only has a start communication system kit.
Warning: The SCS kit is sold with the right headset deactivated and working
in modality MONO. See paragraph “configurator” to change it.
Possible configurations:
Driver helmet only: 1 start communication system kit + 1 SCS kit•
Driver helmet + passenger helmet via cable: 2 start communication sy-•
stem kits + 1 SCS kit + 1 passenger cable kit
Driver helmet + passenger helmet: 2 start communication system kits +•
2 SCS kits
The SCS kit is compatible with all Bluetooth® mobile phones for the basic fun-
ctions (making and answering calls), but compatibility may be limited for more
advanced functions. For more information on compatible Bluetooth® phones,

8. Pairing with an MP3 player
The SCS kit has a Bluetooth® A2DP profile, which lets you listen to your•
music inside the helmet through an MP3 player (with a Bluetooth® com-
munication interface) or a mobile phone (with the same A2DP profile).
This procedure pairs your Bluetooth® MP3 player with the SCS kit and•
must be followed the first time you use the MP3 player with the kit.
The MP3 player will detect the SCS kit as a normal earpiece.•
Proceed as follows:
With the device switched off, press and keep the ON button pressed•
for 8 seconds (it will emit a triple high-pitched tone) to enter the MP3
pairing mode
Add a Bluetooth® device to your MP3 player (see player’s instruction•
manual)
The MP3 player will then display the devices detected, select Suomy-•
Com (or the name which has been set using the configurator)
The MP3 player will ask for a password, enter 0000 and press OK•
If the pairing has been completed successfully, you will hear a tone of•
confirmation
When the MP3 player is paired with the SCS kit, please consult the instruction
manual of your MP3 player so that you can listen to your music.
NOTE: some MP3 players do not automatically connect after entering the
code 0000.
In this case, proceed in one of the following ways:
Medium press the ON button and•
Proceed with connection (as shown in the user’s manual of the player)•

be done the first time you use your phone with the kit that will be detected as
a normal earpiece.
Proceed as follows:
With the device switched off, press the ON button and keep it pressed•
for 8 seconds (a triple high-pitched tone is emitted) to enter the phone
pairing mode
Add a Bluetooth® device on your phone (see the phone’s instruction•

10. Pairing two helmets
This procedure pairs two SCS kits and activates the intercom function between
them. Communication with the intercom function is possible at a maximum
distance of 200 metres. This distance depends on the environmental and road
conditions.
Put two helments with the SCS kits close together•
Set the intercom pairing mode on both the helmets: press the ON button•
for 4 seconds (emission of a double high-pitched tone)
Press the ON button (short press)on one of the two helmets•
After a few seconds, a high-pitched tone confirms the pairing and the•
intercom mode is automatically activated. A low-pitched tone indicates
that pairing has failed
If, during the intercom mode, the distance is such between the two helmets that
the connection is lost, it will be automatically attempted for the next 2 minutes.
If it cannot be reactivated, it will be closed.
A short press on the ON button is enough to reactivate it.
IMPORTANT: two helmets connection through the passenger cable kit is activa-
ted by the helmet with the SCS system installed. With radio switched off make
a very long simultaneously pressure on and ON buttons.
11. Adjusting the volume
You can adjust the volume by a short press of the button
-
or
+
(confirmed
by a tone in the earpiece).
You can set 6 different levels of volume and each time you press the
+
button, the volume goes up one step and, vice versa, the
-
button lowers
it. A high-pitched tone is the sign that the maximum level of volume has been
reached, whilst a low-pitched tone marks the minimum level.
The next time you switch the helmet on, the last volume setting is automatically
restored.
