When the 50R is OFF, press and hold the Centre Button and (+) for three seconds, the alternating Red/Blue flashing sequence appears indicating pairing mode. Put your mobile device in BT pairing mode (if needed) and select Sena 50R when it appears.
Minor bug fix with intercom aud For installation and testing uniformity, another Schuberth C3 Pro, also in the Echo colourway, is the first host for the Sena 50S. Mesh intercoms typically don’t work across different brands, but it’s just been announced that the new Mesh devices from Sena and Interphone will be compatible.
Frequently Asked Questions
Bluetooth intercom is much improved with almost non-existent noise and far less interference overall. As often observed, rider to rider ranges are as good and often better than with Mesh; one road ride had a gap of close to 2.0km between riders without significant signal or audio degradation. However, it is important that the module suppresses wind and engine noise so that riders can understand each other clearly. The main unit of the 50S can be detached from a helmet when attached using the clamp kit or the Glued Surface Mounting Adapter for charging or storage. The main unit of the 50R cannot be detached if is attached to a helmet using the double-sided adhesive. However, the main unit of the 50R can be detached from a helmet if it is attached using the hook and loop fasteners or the clamp kit. The speakers and the microphone for the 50R need to be disconnected from the wiring so that the main unit of the 50R can be detached. The Sena 50S is the company’s flagship motorcycle intercom. Having used it for several months on an Arai Tour-X4, riding a BMW S1000XR and a Royal Enfield Interceptor 650, I’ve been able to review its performance when making calls, listening to music, and as an intercom over Bluetooth, and using the Mesh 2.0 connection with multiple riders. In another expected and most positive move, the seriously serious HD speaker kits included with the Sena 50 Series systems will be offered for the 10C Pro, 10C EVO, 20S, 20S EVO and 30K later this summer (possibly by August).
One of its most popular features is Mesh 2.0 technology, which allows riders to pair with upto 24 others in a closed mesh and even more in the open mesh mode. The Sena 50S-02 delivers not one, but three different intercom modes available to Sena riders: Multi-Channel Open Mesh Intercom™, Group Mesh Intercom™, and Bluetooth Intercom. For those of you looking to understand the technical aspects of these two products from Sena, I have listed them below. Which one is better: Sena 50R or 50S and Why? The Sena 50S is slightly more expensive than the Sena 50R, with a slightly bigger battery and the jog dial to increase the ease with which riders can shift between menus and make changes while on the move.
CONNECT TO THE WIFI ADAPTER TO FULLY CHARGE AND UPDATE
Both 50S units were taking directly from the box, and updated to firmware ver 1.0.6, and fully charged. A fault reset, along with a factory reset was performed after the firmware upgrade. Private Group mode allows up to 24 riders to connect, again with a minimum of 6 riders at 1-mile intervals and a total distance of 5 miles. The last used Mesh Channel is retained in memory whether Mesh is exited and/or the system is turned off. In the meantime, with a fair amount of static and ride testing over the last two months or so while appreciating ongoing COVID-19 limitations, virtually all the features of the 50R and 50S systems have been evaluated, along with input from four other users as well. This is a common feature for the Sena 50R and 50S, but with each variant having a different control layout the table below lists the features/functions of the FM Radio and identifies the specific input and timing for the 50R and 50S. wBW Table – FM Radio Functional Controls for Sena 50R & 50S Function
