Full details

The Stilo Verbacom Communication System is designed for race teams needing a reliable and license-free car-to-pit communication solution. Its key benefit is the automated, mobile-phone-based system that eliminates the need for external radios and licenses, ensuring continuous connection.

FAQs

Do I need a radio license to use the Verbacom system?

No, the Verbacom system is based on a mobile phone system, so no external radios or radio licenses are required.

How does the driver unit activate?

The driver connection module is voice activated and operates automatically when the driver speaks, eliminating the need for a push-to-talk button.

What is the range of the communication?

The system offers coverage all around a race circuit, as it relies on mobile phone network coverage, unlike radio systems that can have dead zones.

Can I use this system with any helmet?

The driver connection module is designed to connect directly to a comms port in a Stilo helmet.

How does the system handle lost connections?

The system is fully automated and will automatically re-connect if a call is lost, without requiring any action from the driver or pit crew.

What are the different kit options available?

There are three kit options: 1 Pit Headset & 1 Car Kit, 2 Pit Headsets & 1 Car Kit, and 1 Pit Headset & 2 Car Kits.

Can the two pit headsets in the 2-headset kit talk to each other?

Yes, the main headset can communicate directly with the car, and separately communicate with the second pit headset. The second headset cannot communicate with the car.

Troubleshooting

No audio between driver and pit crew

Verify that both units are powered on, charged, and within Bluetooth range. Check that the Bluetooth connection is active and properly paired. Ensure the correct headset/car kit is selected in the pairing menu.

Static or intermittent audio

Ensure there is a strong mobile network signal for both the car and pit crew locations. Check for potential interference from other electronic devices. Move closer to the pit wall if signal strength is low.

Driver unit not activating when speaking

Confirm that the driver unit is correctly connected to the helmet and powered on. Check the sensitivity settings if available on the unit. Ensure the microphone is not obstructed.

Bluetooth connection fails to establish

Restart both the driver unit and the pit crew headset. Remove previous pairings from both devices and re-attempt the pairing process. Ensure devices are in pairing mode.

Pit crew headset cannot communicate with the second car (in 2-headset kit)

This is by design. The second headset is for monitoring or separate communication, not direct car communication. Refer to the specific kit configuration manual.
