Cardo Scala questions ...

[oblertone]

... Having only recently used these headsets in anger (2 x weeks France/Spain) I was extremely impressed by the Bike-to-Bike range with 300m + still giving good audible speech; however, I do have a couple of queries.

Firstly; Jaq's headset is paired with her Zumo and works well on directions but we cannot figure out how to use the MP3 function. The Zumo has a card loaded with music, all the selections appear on the screen and appear to be playing but nothing comes through the headset ? Any suggestions

Secondly; does anyone know where I can buy just the helmet cradle/speakers so I can equip a second helmet ?

I had the same problem once. I just swtiched off the Cardo unit and then back on, while the Zumo was playing. The problem corrected itself.

I only have a basic Scala Rider which I rarely use as its pretty poor in comparision with a wired Autocom. It is however possible to get the Zumo music to play, albeit with poor quality.

In the Bluetooth menu have you got the output option set to "Navigation, MP3, phone" or "phone only" It defaults to the later which won't play the music.

There's usually a few of the helmet fittings on ebay. My son just bought one, around £27 I think. They come both standard length mike and extra long.

Thanks ...

... I've looked on eBay but must have missed them; I'll look again

As to the preference setting, yes I've checked that and it's set to MP3, Navigation etc but still no joy
