I decided to try linking by bluetooth phone to my Zumo 550 for an upcoming trip.... I can make it link and I can hear the other person, but they can't hear me....what's up with that?.....any work arounds?

 

You will need to get a blue tooth headset to accomplish that task. When using the auto adapter it will run through the speaker on the zumo window adapter. Good luck.

 

I was hoping that someone makes a module that will allow the HD microphone/headset to work with the Zumo in bluetooth mode and still retain all the other speaker/XM/radio/CD functions with one headset and one cord.....right now it looks like this isn't possible....sucks for me!

 

Karl ~ I got mine working, but it's like was mentioned above.

1) Pair the phone w/Zumo
2) Pair BT headset w/Zumo
3) Configure Zumo output to BT headset = Phone & Directions

After that it works like a champ. This way, music still plays thru radio & phone and directions come thru headset.

I'll give ya'll a call either tomorrow night or Saturday morning..

Ride safe!

 

PhilM which bluetooth headset are you using?

 

I have the Scala Rider "Team" set. It's a pair, so I have one & wifey has one too, so it's also an intercom.

a little pricey and not recommended for headlight modulators. you can call the folks at cyclegagets and talk to them about it

 

I bought a new hs830 made by motorola, I got mine off ebay new for 29.00 plus shipping. It also, has an intercom function if you have two of them. It has some good right ups! Save money and go motorola!

I have the stock HD radio and Zumo 550.

I am using the helmet headset for bluetooth calls. There is a special (low cost) interface that allows you to plug into the 2.5mm jack on the Zumo bike mount (located above the Zumo audio out 3.5mm jack) and allows you to use your helmet headset for both CB and bluetooth.

Simple, clean, inexpensive and crystal clear calls at 70mph!

 

Are you using this with the Harley headset?

If so what is the interface used to make it work?
