    Default Converting audio mute signal to real audio signal?

    Converting audio mute signal to real audio signal?

    I went around with this question before, with no usable results, so I will post it again.

    Has anyone got an easy way to convert the audio mute wire output (when the blinder is firing) into an audio alert that can be used with an earphone or motorcycle intercom system?

    I have my blinder M20 mounted on my motorcycle and have an intercom system, however at speed the blinder audio alert is not loud enough. I would like to patch it into my intercom system which takes any normal earphone plug audio output.

    Any suggestions or solutions? TIA

    well not to sound like an ad, but yes the Cheetah wireless kit will do that.
    it comes with a wireless AUDIOnode that gives you the alerts, and it has an earphone jack so you could use an earpiece, or plug it into the intercom and hear the alerts.

    here's a video link showing the intsll of a Blinder on a car.
    you can skip towards the end and see the AUDIOnode giving the alert.

    I have the same issue but my workaround is my V1 is hooked into my Autocom so if it alearts Laser, that's my warning.

    Yep, I could do that, but I want to keep my Escort in the secure, waterproof lockable glove compartment on my bike.

    Does the mute line go positive or negative? Ether way you should be able to drive a small buzzer or relay to drive a audio tone generator.

    That's what I need, and audio tone generator, but not a buzzer or piezo.

    I need to feed an audio signal into my intercom. Normal piezo or buzzers cannot be heard on a motorcycle going 80mph wearing a full face helmet with earplugs and an intercom playing music. I need an audio feed that I will prioritize using my intercom to step over other audio inputs.

    If you have a suggestion or a part number, please let me know where to get a unit.
