Base Station Set-Up

Location

Locate the base station on a level surface with the rear of the unit facing you. See “Antenna Information” section for more information on choosing a location.

Rack Mounting

Two kits are available for rack mounting the base station. The first kit rack mounts a single base station in a 19" rack. The second kit rack mounts two base stations, side by side, in a 19" rack. Instructions are included in the rack mount kits. Refer to the “Accessories” section for rack mount part numbers.

RF Transmit/Receive Channel Switches

Allows the user to select which of the two RF channels the unit is on. The transmit channel selected, either “A” or “B”, is the frequency of the base station’s transmitter.

The receiver channel selected, either “A” or “B”, is the frequency of the base station’s receiver. The frequencies are listed on the bottom of the base station.

The base station’s transmit frequency must match the beltpack’s receive frequency. The base station’s receiver must match the beltpack’s transmit frequency. Typically both base station switches are set to “A” or both to “B” and the beltpacks are set to the same.

Local Headset Connection
