Sena 50s

Bluetooth.
This is how I paired my Sena 50 to the RT. also it seems to work best if you turn the helmet on first before the bike is powered up. Unpair everything and start fresh.
Unpair Sena ----------- Hold jog 10s find function phone tap sets
RT
Sena to bike
Media selective paring --- P 5s – jog 1 tap
Phone to NAV
NAV to Sena – Jog 5s – P 1s – P 1s
Unpair Sena ----------- Hold jog 10s find function phone tap sets
RT
Sena to bike
Media selective paring --- P 5s – jog 1 tap
Phone to NAV
NAV to Sena – Jog 5s – P 1s – P 1s
Ok. Got my 50s connected thru phone & Nav. It will receive calls & shows caller ID thru the gps. It also gives voice directions thru helmet, all good. I also got the bike system to recognize the sena & play the radio thru thru the helmet. With 5” of fresh snow I have todo all this in the garage, no road test yet. My question.... it appears that I may loose the bike (radio) connection when the bike is switched off & restarted. If so, is there a easy, quick way to reconnect without having to going thru the process of unpairing everything & redoing everything ??
I have a 20s (similar function). If the bike shuts down (say at the gas pump). The Sena will automatically reconnect when you fire the bike back up. I personally do not pair the gps to helmet, I found that when traveling, every time the GPS speaks, the audio connection is dropped and has to reconnect after each GPS prompt. But the GPS will automatically run the prompts thru the bikes audio system and simply mute the audio for a second during the prompt. And there's no delay waiting for a connection to re-establish. Not playing audio, tune the audio system to (auxiliary) all will be quiet until the GPS speaks. True you will not get caller ID on the GPS screen, But I personally prefer not to.
Added Note: When pairing, it really helps to be away from all other Bluetooth sources.
I simply turn on my Sena, put on my helmet, hear it confirm connection to my iPhone, and as the bike fires up I hear it confirm connection to the audio system ( or when I turn on audio).

Ok. Thanks. I’ll look @ that when weather clears & I can get bike out.
