Riding With Others; Dmc Intercom; Setting Up And Using Dmc Intercom Groups - Cardo Systems PACKTALK NEO Manual

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 dynamically-
fluid 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
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
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

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.
