Telephone interrupt pin The cable on the Transceiver is equipped with a telephone interrupt pin (TEL INT). Such mechanism can be used to notify the car stereo unit to switch mode when it detects incoming call and transferring call.

• Automatic

If the Transceiver is paired to both a

proﬁle switch

Clarion Bluetooth®Audio Transmitter

and a mobile phone, when there is an incoming call, a stereo ringing tone will be heard and any music streaming will be temporarily muted until call is ended or rejected.

• Acoustic Echo Cancellation

Voice signals from the loudspeaker often appear at the microphone, this causes conversational interference in the form of acoustic echo and howling. With this advanced DSP-based Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) system built-in, it is capable of handling full-duplex communication, echo cancellation and noise suppression on the microphone input to enable smooth handsfree communication and crystal clear speech.

• Separate volume control

There are two set of volume settings, one for handsfree mode and one for music mode. This can ensure that the user can set the desired volume for speech and music separately without having to change the volume when picking up and ending call between music streaming.

Note:
