5. RIDING WITH OTHERS

Your PACKTALK NEO features three distinct intercom communication modes: the traditional Bluetooth
protocol, Live Intercom, and the Cardo's Dynamic Mesh Communications (DMC) technology.

DMC is the best way to communicate in a group. In DMC mode, you can instantly create or join a dynamically­fluid network of up to 15 riders to communicate in full conference mode. Unlike Bluetooth, DMC allows anyone
in the group to roam freely, overtake each other or even leave the group altogether, without affecting the
ongoing conversations of the remaining fellow riders. You can also use the DMC intercom to communicate
privately with another rider.

Of course, you can still use Bluetooth to connect to devices, such as your smartphone or GPS, or to
communicate with riders with headsets that don't include DMC technology. For details, see Bluetooth Intercom
on page 22.

How Does DMC Work?

Anyone can start a new DMC group.

In DMC intercom mode, riders can join, leave, and rejoin existing DMC groups without affecting the ongoing
conversation among the other group members. If a group member goes out of range, the remaining riders are
automatically re-connected within split seconds to a closer group member, bypassing the absent or remote
rider. This way, all active riders remain connected to each other.

5.1 DMCINTERCOM

You can use the DMC Intercom to speak with other riders in your DMC group. For more information on
creating DMC Intercom groups, see Creating DMC Intercom Groups on page 19

Using the DMC Intercom, all riders in a group speak hands-free. A rider in a group performs no additional
operation to speak to or hear other riders in the group.

Using the DMC intercom, you can also:

● Chat privately with another rider in your DMC group, see Chatting Privately on page 20.

● Bridge a non-DMC passenger or rider, see Using DMC Intercom on page 20.

● Mute/unmute DMC Intercom groups, see Muting/Unmuting DMC Intercom Group on page 21.

● Leaving DMC Intercom groups, see leaving DMC Intercom Groups on page 20.

● Listen to music while in DMC Intercom groups, see Multiple audio sources and volume Management on

page 22.

● Switch between DMC Intercom and Bluetooth intercom, see Switching between Intercom modes on page

26.

5.1.1 SETTING UP AND USING DMC INTERCOM GROUPS

You can manage DMC Intercom groups to suit your riding requirements, this includes creating groups, joining
groups, leaving and rejoining groups or changing your active group.

DMC Intercom groups are created by any PACKTALK NEO device. Each group can have up to 15 riders.

When creating a group, all members should be within 5 meters (16 feet).

When you are getting out of range from the group, a voice message announces that the group connection is
lost, but your unit remains part of the group.

18

If your DMC group splits with some group members remaining in range of each other but not in range of all
group members, you can continue speaking with the members still in range. Once in range of any other group
member, you automatically reconnect.

If you join a new DMC group, you automatically leave your existing DMC group. You can go back to the group
with Cardo Connect App.

● If you purchased the PACKTALK NEO DUO, the package contains two units belonging to the same

DMC Intercom group. No group creation is required.

5.1.1.1 CREATING DMC INTERCOM GROUPS

When creating a DMC group, you must coordinate with the other riders who will be the group creator. When
creating s group, all members should be within 5 meters (16 feet).

1. All the riders press

for 5 seconds. The LED flashes red and green quickly.

2. After each member joins successfully, the LEDs of the joined unit and the admin's unit announces how
many riders are connected.

After grouping is completed, the DMC Intercom conference starts automatically.

When switching your unit ON, a voice message announces how many riders from your group are in the
range.

To create a DMC group with a device from the previous generation of DMC, this device first initiates the
group as Admin, and only after PACKTALK NEO devices can initiate grouping.

5.1.1.2 JOINING DMC INTERCOM GROUPS

You can join or rejoin a DMC Intercom group previously created.

To join an existing DMC group:

1. The group admin allows the additional rider by selecting "Add a rider" in the Cardo Connect App.

2. Press

for 5 seconds. The LED flashes red and green quickly.

The color of the flashing LEDindicates whether you have been added to the group:

●

Purple: You have successfully joined the group.

● Yellow: You cannot join the group because it has already reached the maximum number of riders.

● Red: Failed to join.

19

5.1.1.3 LEAVING DMC INTERCOM GROUPS

You can leave a DMC group , by deleting the group from the Cardo Connect App or by doing a full factory
reset.

If you leave a DMC intercom group, you must rejoin it if you want to connect to it again in the
future.

for 2 seconds.

5.1.2.5 MULTIPLE AUDIO SOURCES AND VOLUME MANAGEMENT

DMCIntercom and FM Radio:

The PACKTALK NEO can use parallel audio streaming to stream audio from two connected sources
simultaneously, so that you can listen to your music or the FM radio while holding a DMC Intercom
conversation. PACKTALK NEO automatically manages your music and FM radio volume while using DMC
Intercom. PACKTALK NEO also automatically manages DMC Intercom volume with mobile phone calls and
GPS.

DMC Intercom and mobile phone calls:

You can receive a phone call during a DMC conversation. The phone will ring simultaneously with the DMC
conversation, and you will be able to inform the group that you are going to answer a call.

PACKTALK NEO also automatically manages DMC Intercom volume with Mobile phone calls.

DMC Intercom and GPS:

PACKTALK NEO automatically manages DMC Intercom volume with GPS.

5.2 BLUETOOTH INTERCOM

To connect your unit to another unit with a Bluetooth intercom, such as a Cardo Bluetooth unit or other
Bluetooth-enabled devices, you must first pair their channels. Once paired, the unit automatically recognizes
the other one whenever they are in range. But they will not connect automatically. To start a Bluetooth
intercom call, see Starting/Ending Bluetooth Intercom Calls on page 24

● Pairing a channel replaces any existing paired unit on that channel with the new unit.

● If you purchased the PACKTALK NEO DUO, the retail package contains two pre-paired units.

● The Intercom range with other models is limited to the distance of the unit with the shorter range.

Your PACKTALK NEO Supports Live Intercom technology for the connection to Cardo Bluetooth intercom
riders. In case of disconnection, Live Intercom enables an automatic reconnection to the other riders when you
get back to the range:

● Once the other rider is disconnected, an announcement “Reconnecting” will be heard. Your unit will “beep”

every 20 seconds while trying to reconnect.

● It is possible to terminate the reconnection attempts manually by tapping the intercom button once.

● The sequence of reconnection attempts is limited to 5 minutes. The intercom will be disconnected after

this period of time, and you will need to initiate it.

● When you are connected to a regular Bluetooth unit, the reconnection will be initiated only from your side.

When you are connected to a Cardo unit supporting Live Intercom, the reconnection will be initiated from
both sides, and will be faster.

22

5.2.1 SETTING UP NON-DMC INTERCOM

DMC is always the best way to connect a group of riders. If you happen to ride with a group of riders that do not
have DMC devices (such as Bluetooth communicators by Cardo or by other brands), you can switch your unit
to Bluetooth mode and create or join a non-DMC group. The participating riders are connected in a chain with a
maximum total of four riders.
