Sat Nav help

[Mervinh]

A guy on the Rd forum is having problems with his sat nav/bluetooth setup here is his question, it has got most of us on that forum stumped when he said sat nav, most of us stil cannot programme a video recorder

Guys,

Apologies if this is slightly off topic for the forum.

In real life I have a modern bike (CBF1000) to play with along with my RD350A. I use a garmin 550 sat nav with a cardo scala bluetooth headset. Great when its working, however .... I find it works fine for the first ten mins of a journey then it starts crackling and the sound quality deteriorates, it then comes back intermittently but at low vol.

Does anyone have any experience of these new fangled gadgets?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Has he got it hot wired in
sound like bad connections

Dont you just love intermittent leccy probs

take it out of the cradle and use on battery power in the tankbag and try again

Fully charge the scala then set it to search for connection, then on the sat nav search for headset.
I removed the connections from my battery when I was fitting something and had a similar problem with the bluetooth on my Autocom, re -established a link and it works fine.

Try recharging the cardo scala bluetooth headset, then reset the garmin and re- establish a connection. if it still does the above then suspect the connections on the headset need cleaning.

Could the crackling be due to interference from the ignition, or charging systems
