Hey Mike, maybe this has been answered, can you bluetooth music from your phone and have communication with riders at the same time? Can others listen to the same music as what you are streaming?
@RidingintheOzarks3 жыл бұрын
As I recall you can be listing to music via Bluetooth and then press the intercom button to talk to riders and the music is muted, if you are listening to music and some talks to yuou it mutes the music, I don't think there is anyway other can listen to you music. Hope that helps.

@RidingintheOzarks Жыл бұрын

@EasyRiderGreg4 жыл бұрын
I think the shoulder on the charging cable is so you can charge while using it and it makes it rain proof. I have a Freedconn R1plus it works pretty good but I reset the wifi password to 3 chars instead of eight. It let me save it but when I go to connect it to my phone the connect button in the app won't work unless there are 8 Chars entered. But it won't connect with the original 8 Chars, so now I can't use the app to change settings or operate the camera. It still works but I'd like to use the app.
@RidingintheOzarks4 жыл бұрын
That maybe why but with like 20 hours of run time I really don't see charging it while using it as a much used function. Does your Freedcon record Audio from intercom conversation when recording video also?
@EasyRiderGreg4 жыл бұрын
@@RidingintheOzarks I don't have another 1 to see if it does. There is nothing in the manual about it but it not very informative. I have figured out stuff that it never mentioned. It doesn't record the music from the FM or the bluetooth (at least I haven't figured out how yet). I know it doesn't use the mic that plugs into it for recording video. There's a built in mic somewhere. The manual doesn't say anything about that either. But it works for making & receiving calls.

You will still need a separate mic and recording device for a vlog, I was going to use my Gopro and mic for my audio then just add the audio from the Comm Unit as a seperate audio track. I was able to do this with the Cardo but my audio still comes from a separate source besides the comm.

I synced it to a Lexin unit using Universal pairing without issue. I believe Fodsports claims to sync with other brands that support universal pairing, so assuming the Cardo or Sena model you trying to connect to support it then it should work. How well I can't say I don't have a Cardo or Sena unit to test with. I have a friend with a SENA and will be testing that when it warms up.
