Congratulations on your new Aurora Design BTC-3.0/BTL-3.0
Bluetooth/AAC adapter. Combined with an FMR-3 converted radio, you
can enjoy 21 st century technology in your classic vehicle!
Setup:
Your radio may have come equipped with an internal
microphone. If not, before installing your radio back into your vehicle,
you may wish to plug the hands-free microphone or optional illuminated
pushbutton into the appropriate jacks on the radio. The microphone can be
placed in a convenient location in the vehicle, typically along the front
edge of the headliner near the rear view mirror or along the bottom edge of
the dashboard. The attached cable is 9.8' (3M) long and can be routed as
required, typically behind the A pillar cover for headliner mounting.
Excess cable can be coiled and tied off.
The optional pushbutton assembly is not required when used with an
FMR-3 converted radio as the existing radio controls can be used to fully
control the BTC-3.0/BTL-3.0. The pushbutton assembly can still be used
with an FMR-3 converted radio if desired, and must be used with all other
installations. The pushbutton requires a 1/2" (12.7mm) hole and should be
mounted somewhere convenient such as the bottom edge of the dashboard.
The pushbutton is illuminated with a red status LED that should be made
visible for easiest operation. The attached cable is 3.3' (1M) long and can
be routed as required. Excess cable can be coiled and tied off.
Basic Operation:
Operation of the BTC-3.0/BTL-3.0 is extremely
simple yet powerful. The BTC-3.0/BTL-3.0, when combined with an
FMR-3 AM/FM receiver form a fully integrated AM/FM/Bluetooth/AAC
solution. Communication over a proprietary com-link keeps the two
modules in perfect sync. No external cables, plugs or switches are
required. Full operation is provided by the existing controls on the radio.
When streaming music or handling a phone call, the FMR-3 status LED
will change color to indicate Bluetooth operation. (see FMR-3 manual for
more information on status LED) When you stop streaming music or end a
call, the BTC-3.0/BTL-3.0 will put the FMR-3 back into normal
operation. Everything is handled automatically.
The BTC-3.0/BTL-3.0 supports SBC and AAC formats over
Bluetooth. AAC files offer higher quality and is the native format used by
iTunes® and many other popular music services. ACC files will play
natively off compatible Bluetooth devices.
The BTC-3.0/BTL-3.0 will always return to the last mode it was in
when the radio was turned off assuming the Bluetooth device is still
present. For example, if the BTC-3.0/BTL-3.0 was playing back from the
Bluetooth when the radio was powered off, it will return to playing back
from where it left off when the radio is turned back on.
The BTC-3.0/BTL-3.0 supports Voice Assist HD which will clearly
speak messages to you to assist in the operation of the radio.
