Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this remote microphone work with my XTRAK 80 PRO radio?

A: NO - the RMX80 is NOT compatible with XTRAK 80 PRO. This is a critical compatibility note. The RMX80 works ONLY with the standard XTRAK 80 model. The XTRAK 80 PRO uses a different remote microphone with different connector and control protocols. If you have an XTRAK 80 PRO, you need the correct remote microphone designed specifically for that model. Always verify you have the standard XTRAK 80 (not PRO) before purchasing the RMX80.

Q: What's the advantage of a remote LCD microphone over a standard speaker microphone?

A: The RMX80 remote LCD microphone provides full radio control and display visibility directly from the microphone, while standard speaker microphones only provide PTT and audio functions. With the RMX80, you can change channels, adjust volume, access menus, and view radio status without touching or viewing the main radio unit. This is essential when the main radio is mounted in inaccessible locations (under dash, in console, rear cargo area) and dramatically improves driver safety by keeping controls within easy reach and eyes on the road.

Q: Can I install this myself or do I need professional installation?

A: While experienced DIY installers can install the RMX80, professional installation is strongly recommended for optimal results. Installation involves routing cable through dashboard, mounting bracket securely, connecting to main radio unit, and integrating with vehicle systems. Professional installers ensure clean cable routing, secure mounting that won't rattle, proper connector seating, and OEM-quality appearance. Incorrect installation can result in poor performance, loose mounting, visible cables, or damage to vehicle interior.

Q: Where should I mount the remote microphone in my vehicle?

A: Optimal mounting locations include dashboard top (near center or driver side), center console side panel, or A-pillar mounting within easy driver reach. The microphone should be positioned where you can easily see the LCD display, reach control buttons without stretching, and grab microphone naturally for PTT operation while keeping eyes on road. Avoid locations that block visibility, interfere with airbags, or create awkward reaching positions. Professional installers have experience determining ideal mounting positions for specific vehicle types.

Q: Does the built-in speaker eliminate the need for an external speaker?

A: The RMX80 includes a built-in speaker that can function as primary audio output for some installations, particularly in quieter vehicles or when microphone is mounted near driver. However, for noisy 4WD vehicles, large trucks, or environments with significant road/engine noise, an external speaker mounted near driver position may still be beneficial for optimal audio clarity. Many users successfully operate with only the RMX80 built-in speaker, while others add external speakers for maximum volume and clarity in demanding conditions.
