  • Select the N-Com system from the list. If a password is requested, enter the code 0000 (four zeros).

  • After a few seconds, the connection between the two devices is activated.

N.B.: The pairing is stored by both the helmet and the navigator hence it is not lost when they are switched off. This means that this procedure needs to be carried out only once. Once the Bluetooth device has been paired, connection is automatic when the system is turned on.
NB: if the B602 system’s memory has already stored a navigator, the new pairing will overwrite the previously paired navigator.
N.B.: Intercom connection is automatically cut off every time the navigator gives directions and restored at the end of the message from the navigator.

INTERCOM RIDER-PASSENGER

The N-Com B602 system allows intercom connection via Bluetooth with another N-Com system. In order for the two N-Com systems to communicate, they must first be paired.

12.1. N-Com “600”/”800”/”900” Series Intercom pairing

“UNIVERSAL INTERCOM” INTERCOM

The “Universal Intercom” function is available only in Complete Mode.
The N-Com B602 system can be connected via Bluetooth to intercom systems of other brands, thanks to the UNIVERSAL INTERCOM function².

13.1. Pairing with the UNIVERSAL INTERCOM
The N-Com system can be paired with the other intercom (from now on referred to as Intercom B) as if it was a mobile phone.

  • Make sure the B602 is turned off.
  • Put the B602 system in “Pairing” mode: press and hold the “n” key for 4 seconds, until the red LED light appears.
  • Press the “▲” key until you hear the voice prompt “Universal intercom pairing”.
  • Put intercom B in the mobile phone pairing mode. Important: If the intercom allows management of two mobile phones, put it in pairing mode of the second mobile phone. By doing so, it will be possible to maintain the connection to your own mobile phone even during intercom communication (refer to the Intercom B manual).
  • On the B602 system, briefly press the “n” key.
  • After a few seconds the systems recognize each other and intercom communication is established.

13.2. Universal Intercom Function
To turn on and off the audio between two helmets, proceed as follows:
From the N-Com B602 system:
Connect or disconnect Intercom B as you would for a regular N-Com intercom (chapter 15).

N.B.: Some systems are not able to handle the activation / deactivation of the intercom connection. In this case, operate from the B602 system.

N.B.:

  • During use of the UNIVERSAL INTERCOM, the B602 system keeps the connection active to the MAIN DEVICE only (and not to the SECOND MOBILE PHONE or to the SATELLITE NAVIGATOR).
  • The intercom system connected to N-Com B602 may not allow simultaneous connection to a mobile phone.
  • Only one system paired in Universal Intercom mode can be stored.

REMOTE CONTROL

The “Remote Control” function is available only in Complete Mode.
The B602 device can be controlled by using a remote control (sold separately), so that you do not have to take your hands off the handlebars to use the keypad.
The N-Com system is compatible with the RC4 Remote Control by SENA.
The following table shows the correspondence of the keys:
