I think you guys have done a great job. I enjoy all the features that cardo has , I have one feature that I think that is missing from the application for Bluetooth mode. When you are pairing for a new device from your phone you have two options: pair or reset. I think that it would make a lot of difference if you have a third option “Select from List” Because every guy that I'm pairing with I am changing the name and I know how I am paired to, but every time I have to pair him again. So if you have the third option you're just selecting the guys that you want to pair to for the list and of you go Without any procedures. My cardo is the 4X and now i want to move to the NEO
Great explanation! I have 2 friends with Sena 50S and I have Packtalk Bold (and a spare) ... with Bold I could only have BT pairing talk time open for 10 seconds. And could not work out how to get the 3 devices all talking at the same time. It this solved with Edge? Or do you need to have 2 Cardos (Edge BT connected to 2 Senas) and have the 2 Cardo's DMC connected then bridge the 2 BT connected Sena's into the 3 conversation ? I am considering buying the Edge but need to confirmed ... thanks
Based on this video.... with a Cardo Packtalk Neo talking in Mesh with say 5x riders, can I add a Sena bluetooth SMH5, hit the button three times, and boom, they are in the mesh (as long as they are in bluetooth range with me) ??
what if your two units will not pair with the app or with button presses? is there a work around when pairing fails over and over or is there a defective unit possibly ? musci will work in both units but they will not find each other. (two pack)
I am thinking about getting one of these units. And was going to give my old Sena unit to my son. He doesn't have to have a cell phone to make that connection right?
I use the cardo to sena50 Bluetooth bridge. So we can use the senas mesh network( I'm the only one with a cardo in our group) and there's nothing but issues. Sometimes it works and I can talk to the group. Other times I can hear them but they can't hear me (constant issues, my guess is the Bluetooth functionality of the cardo unit) . It's a lengthy process to get it set up when everyone's trying to get on the road. The Bluetooth bridge is limited range so if he pulls ahead more then 100 meters the connection drops. It's drains the battery on my buddy's side because he has to use both Bluetooth and the mesh at the same time. A mesh network should be a mesh network regardless of the manufacturer. Perfect world cardo could just switch to mesh and join a Sena group without some jank workaround. I actually switched to Sena 50 series because of this.
Pairing with the buttons does not work as it should. When I try to pair 4 units in a group 9 times out of 10 one or more will be stuck searching for group and then fail to join. The funny thing is you can see that they had the same problem in the video. One of the units did not turn purple and was still blinking. Then there was an obvious edit and they went on to the next topic. I really expected this to be much easier. There are 12 in our group. If pairing four is this hard I fear how much trouble 12 is going to be, especially since 4 are older versions.
can you bridge 2 cardos in via bluetooth? Like If two people are in a DMC, can you bridge a Freecom into the DMC with channel A and another freecom with channel b?
How do I connect the Edge to BMW System 7 Comms using the Bluetooth intercom? It says "Rider A ready" then shortly after it disconnects saying "Rider A out of range"
If I have a Packtalk, but my passenger has a freecom, can I communicate with my passenger via bt and stay connected with other riders in the group via mesh?
ı have 2 cardo freecom 4+ and ı want to replace 1 of them with the packtalk edge and ı want to setup ı want to know can ı connect my packtalk edge with my phone and other freecom 4+ and ı want to use recording voice feature same time is it possible ? or voice recorder + listening music same time with no problem is these possible ?
Hello friends, I have the pactalk bold model. My problem is that I can create groups in DMC mode. I can join groups, but I cannot start and end calls in groups. I reset the factory settings. I reinstalled the software but I couldn't solve it. Does anyone know the solution?
we tried for an hour to connect two riders with Cardo units and a third with a Sena. the instructions in here don't work. both companies have a lot of work to do to make a better product that is simpler to use.

have the same problem. did you find a solution?
Great guide thank you! I love 😍 my packtalk edge unit
Hello, I have a question, can I be in DMC mode and at the same time have a camera connected via bluetooth for sound and microphone at the same time?
I am thinking about getting one of these units. And was going to give my old Sena unit to my son. He doesn't have to have a cell phone to make that connection right?
I updated my PackTalk Bold to the PackTalk Edge. My wife still has the Bold. How should I pair her unit to mine for Passenger Intercom?
It's possible to do de operation of 8:34 but with one cardo and two headsets of other brands?
I think you can with Bluetooth but not DMC because the other brands don't have DMC.

How do you manage to click, whichever button, X amount of times, whilst riding with gloves on? Voice control I can understand.

if i do DMC will it disconnect the cardo from the tft since the bluetooth would have basically turned off?
Have installed my first neo.
The mic does not react to the voice command...
Which mode uses less battery power to extend ride times without having to charge? Also which mode has better audio quality?

Hi! How to switch dmc/bluetooth using hotkeys?
How to switch dmc mode to bluetooth mode use the button?
hold top and bottom button
Can connect how many pieces other brand intercom?
You can connect just one for the A channel and just one for the B channel
If i not mistake you have to choose either A or B cannot both
If I have a Packtalk, but my passenger has a freecom, can I communicate with my passenger via bt and stay connected with other riders in the group via mesh?
Yes. It’s called bridge. You’ll find how in the manual.
Thought with the new update the Sena would “not” have to go into phone pairing mode, just pair as they would normally with another Sena?
I had the same question. With the 3.2 firmware update and support of DMC Gen 2, the Sena should be able to connect via DMC; not bluetooth pairing.
ı have 2 cardo freecom 4+ and ı want to replace 1 of them with the packtalk edge and ı want to setup ı want to know can ı connect my packtalk edge with my phone and other freecom 4+ and ı want to use recording voice feature same time is it possible ? or voice recorder + listening music same time with no problem is these possible ?
Is there a way to switch the cardo packtalk from dmc mode to Bluetooth mode and back just using the buttons of the device?
Yes
Hello friends, I have the pactalk bold model. My problem is that I can create groups in DMC mode. I can join groups, but I cannot start and end calls in groups. I reset the factory settings. I reinstalled the software but I couldn't solve it. Does anyone know the solution?
How can I switch between DMC and bluetooth mode without using the app?
Press & hold phone & intercom buttons for either 2.5 or 5 seconds. I forget the exact time. Light will flash blue for Bluetooth or green for DMC Mesh
we tried for an hour to connect two riders with Cardo units and a third with a Sena. the instructions in here don't work. both companies have a lot of work to do to make a better product that is simpler to use.
witch is the best connection to use only with the passenger, bluetooth or DMC?
I have the same question
For me, bluetooth is the clear crispy compare to dmc. Because dmc talking got delay few second.
Thanks!!
You did absolutely nothing to explain the differences between DMC and Bluetooth
Bluetooth only talks to 1 other headset.
Mesh talks to mutiple.
I was hoping for a performance comparison too.
Done
can guy figure out how to connect the cardo to gopro or insta 360 camera so people dont need those stupid external.mic 😂😂😂
