Setup and Installation
1. Mounting the Headset Unit
The PHXIN T9S unit can be mounted to your helmet using either the clip mounting bracket or the 3M adhesive base.
- Clip Mounting: Slide the clip between the helmet shell and the inner padding. Ensure it is securely fastened.
- 3M Adhesive Mounting: Clean the desired area on the helmet surface thoroughly. Peel off the protective film from the 3M plastic base and firmly press it onto the helmet for at least 30 seconds. Allow 24 hours for the adhesive to cure before attaching the headset unit.
2. Installing Speakers and Microphone
Choose the appropriate microphone for your helmet type:
- Boom Mic (Hard Microphone): Recommended for open-face or flip-face helmets. Attach the microphone to the inside of the helmet near your mouth.
- Button Mic (Soft Microphone): Recommended for full-face helmets. Position the microphone inside the helmet near your mouth, typically within the chin bar.
Place the 40mm HiFi speakers inside the helmet's ear pockets, ensuring they are aligned with your ears for optimal sound quality. Connect the speaker and microphone cables to the Type-C headset port on the main unit. Ensure all connections are firmly inserted to maintain IP67 waterproofing.
