Be gentle with me as this tyoe of stuff ain’t my strong point. not that I’m thick (yep I know open to opinion ) just that I ain’t got a great deal of interest in this sort of stuff, so ain’t pursued it, so like most things I just deal with it on a need to know basis.
So…
I eventually got my new phone mated up with the bluetooth in the Actros.
What I want to know is…
Can you pair up two phones simultaneously, ( ie my works phone on there along with my own)
If so whilst initially pairing up, do you need to knock off the already connected phone, and when both paired up, abd in the event of them both receiving an incoming call at the same time, what happens,?..does one override the other, depending on which phone you answer, or what.

Nope you can’t have 2 pored up at the same on a claptros unless the new ones have a different stereo
So if you want to use works phone you have to pair that and change it to use your own phone

Only truck I’ve ever driven that would let you pair 2 devices was a 17 reg daf.
I wish more would let you pair 2 devices make life easier
MAN TGX will from late 2018
How? I drive 68 reg man
Then again radios basic no Bluetooth or usb connectivity.
MAN’s are famous for sitting unsold in fields for years and the number plate bears little correlation to the year of manufacture. Some of our 18 plates are actually newer built models than some of our 19 plates.
Bluetooth can support more than one connection at the same time, the problem is the people who design the stereo or truck or whatever is doing the handsfree deciding not to.

toonsy:
I can in mine but its a new one so that’s probably why.
Is that an Actros??
I know it will retain info for more than one at a time, but will it connect to them both? I haven’t tried and not near a truck at the moment, so can’t try!
If the aim is simply to be able to answer incoming calls that come in on the company phone while you’re driving, a simple bodge would be to set it to divert to your personal phone.
Just need to remember to cancel the divert when you go home off duty…
