General considerations on priority
The Midland BT2 is a Bluetooth unit that can be paired with
other Bluetooth devices with different features: cell phone,
GPS, MP3 player, etc...
Depending on the type of device, Midland BT2 assigns ope-
rating priorities; for example calls have a higher priority com-
pared to music. This means that if a call arrives while you are
listening to music, your music will automatically be interrupted
so that you can answer the call. There are three priorities avai-
lable to meet the most common requirements.
Devices with (high) priority 1
Because of their use, cell phones and GPS Sat-Navs always
have a higher priority compared to other connected devices.
Therefore, an incoming call or instruction from a GPS always
interrupts all other active communications. Devices with prio-
rity 1 must be paired with the BT2 unit using the “Phone” but-
ton.
Devices with (Medium) priority 2
This priority can be assigned only to another BT2 with Inter-
com feature. Enabling the Intercom feature disables all other
communications except those with (High) priority 1. This is
