How to Connect Cardo to Cardo?

Published in Cardo Pairing 2 mins read

To connect Cardo devices, particularly Cardo Packtalk Radios using Mesh technology, the key step involves initiating the pairing process and then waiting for a visual confirmation.

Once the pairing sequence is started on your Cardo devices, you will need to observe the indicator lights.

Pairing Confirmation via Purple Light

Based on the provided reference, a critical visual cue that confirms successful pairing between two Cardo Packtalk devices using Mesh is when the device's indicator light turns purple.

  • Process Highlight: After initiating the connection process (the initial steps are not shown in the reference), observe the lights on your Cardo units.
  • Success Indicator: When you see the light turn purple, this signifies that the specific Cardo unit has successfully paired with another unit.
  • Outcome: Once paired and displaying the purple light, the devices are connected and can communicate, allowing users to hear each other.

The reference specifically shows that waiting for the light to "go purple" indicates successful pairing between two Packtalk units using this method. Devices that have not yet paired will not display this purple light.

While Cardo devices offer various connection methods (like Bluetooth intercom or Mesh intercom for different models), the specific insight from the reference is the confirmation of successful Mesh pairing on Packtalk models via the purple indicator light.
