Got any questions about the BMW's R1200RT/R1250RT's onboard audio, Bluetooth or the Electrical system?

iPhone 5 Nav v and Scala headset

Post by Pete1200 »

I have a Nav v, iPhone 5 and Scala setup. How do I make calls? The satnav says the phone is connected but the phone icon on screen remains greyed out. I had little problem with the Zumo 550, so what am I doing wrong?

On your phone
Go to settings
Then Bluetooth
Hit the nav v icon should force a connection
Mine does not connect automatically on occasion

The satnav is showing that it is connected to the phone, but that's as far as it goes.

I think I may have it sussed. First, phone hooked up to satnav, second, headset channel one hooked up to bike, third second channel on headset hooked up to satnav. At least I think that's how I did it. I was then able to make and receive calls with radio on and phone overriding radio when necessary.
