MESH INTERCOM

What is Mesh Intercom

Sena proposes using Mesh Intercom™, which provides instant and effortless bike-to-bike communication without a pre-grouping process.

Mesh Intercom allows riders to connect and communicate with nearby users without the need to pair each headset together.

The working distance between each +Mesh in Mesh Intercom can be up to 800 meters (880 yards) in open terrain. In open terrain, the Mesh can be extended up to 3.2 km (1.9 miles) between a minimum of 6 users. 6 users can talk at the same time for an optimized, open group intercom conversation. Users can freely connect with each other.

Open Mesh

Open Mesh is an open group intercom function. Users can freely communicate with each other in the same Open Mesh channel and select which channel (1-9) to use through the Sena +Mesh App.

It can connect with a virtually unlimited number of users in each channel.

SENA Products That Can Communicate with +Mesh via Mesh Intercom

  • +Mesh, +Mesh Universal
  • Mesh headset or helmet

NOTE:
If +Mesh cannot communicate with Sena products via Mesh Intercom, please update to the latest firmware.

Using the Mesh

Before using Mesh Intercom, you will need to pair a compatible Sena headset or helmet for the first time. The Bluetooth pairing operation is only required once for each Sena headset or helmet. The +Mesh remains paired with the headset or helmet and automatically connects to the paired headset or helmet again when they are within range of each other.

Bluetooth Pairing with a Sena Headset or Helmet

  1. Turn on the +Mesh and a headset that you would like to pair with each other.
  2. Press and hold the Multi-function Button of the +Mesh for 5 seconds until red LED of the +Mesh start to flash rapidly. Enter into the Bluetooth intercom pairing mode of the headset (refer to the User's Manual for the headset you want to use). You do not need to press any buttons for pairing.
  3. When the LED flashes green, the pairing is completed. You will hear "Mesh intercom on, Open Mesh, channel 1" from the connected corresponding headset.

Mesh Intercom On and Off

  1. To start the Mesh Intercom, tap the Multi-function Button. The LED flashes green and you will hear "Mesh intercom on, Open Mesh, channel 1" from the connected corresponding headset.
  2. To terminate the Mesh Intercom, tap the Multi-function Button. You will hear "Mesh Intercom Off" from the connected corresponding headset.

NOTE:

  1. The +Mesh supports only one headset or helmet for pairing.
  2. If the connected headset or helmet has HD Intercom activated, the headset supports communication with HD quality sound.
  3. If Audio Multitasking is enabled, the headset or helmet communicates in Normal Intercom mode.
  4. If a headset or helmet that is connected to a +Mesh connects to another headset or helmet using Bluetooth intercom, the voice prompts from the +Mesh will be heard by all of the connected headsets.
  5. If the headset or helmet has Audio Multitasking enabled or HD Intercom disabled, the intercom quality of Mesh Intercom will be reduced.
  6. You can also start and terminate the Mesh Intercom by using the headset or helmet, but "Mesh Intercom On" and "Mesh Intercom Off" voice prompts will not be heard.

Mesh Intercom Reconnection

If Bluetooth connection between the +Mesh and a headset is disconnected, tap the Multi-function Button to reconnect the two devices.

Using the Mesh in Open Mesh

When Mesh Intercom is enabled, the +Mesh will be in Open Mesh (default: channel 1) initially.

Channel Setting (Default: channel 1)

If the Open Mesh communication experiences interference because other groups are also using channel 1 (default), change the channel. You can select from channels 1 to 9.

  • You can only change the channel through the Sena +Mesh App.
