AnchorMAN mic sensitivity with the +/– Microphone buttons on the belt pack.
TRANSMISSION IS WEAK?
Your rechargeable batteries may be running low. If batteries
are weak, the Group LED’s will slowly flash. Your belt pack
needs to be recharged. If you need to keep working, you can
use disposable alkaline batteries.
PROPER INTERCOM ETIQUETTE
WingMAN is an interface station that allows full duplex communication between AnchorMAN belt packs and unbalanced
party-line intercom systems. Use proper intercom etiquette
– wait to break into the conversation network until the other
system users have stopped speaking.

WHAT IS WINGMAN?
WingMAN is an interface station that allows full duplex communication between AnchorMAN belt packs and unbalanced party-line intercom systems.
The WingMAN includes a transceiver that operates in a FDMA format which is
compatible with AnchorMAN belt packs. An integrated interface circuit makes
it possible to easily interface the transceiver with party-line intercom systems.

DIP SWITCH
Setup USER ID & Select 100/200 ohm
operation (see DIP SWITCHES)
This allows users to easily switch communications between one of the four AnchorMAN groups and one of two party line groups.
ANTENNA PLACEMENT
In order to maximize system range/performance the WingMAN is designed
with dual antennas. Generally, the greater the antenna separation the better
WingMAN will perform. After connecting both antennas adjust their positions
until Strong signal quality is indicated by the ANTENNA LED.
DIP SWITCHES
WIRELESS TELEX (BTR-700) USERS
USER ID Selection – DIP Switches 1 & 2
WingMAN uses one of four GROUP/USER IDs to communicate
with the AnchorMAN. Select a USER ID (1 – 4) by setting DIP
Switches 1 & 2 on the back panel:
Follow these Setup Instructions to connect the WingMAN to a
BTR-700 Telex wireless base station:

AnchorMAN belt packs with the same GROUP & USER ID setting
may experience significant transmission interference.
The ANTENNA LED shows range/signal quality based on antenna separation:
RED = Weak Signal / Green = Strong Signal
For increased range and better signal quality mount antennas using the optional Antenna Mounting Kit (includes cables & mounting hardware) to achieve
maximum separation. We recommend a minimum of 10’ between antennas .
WIRED SYSTEM INTERFACE
3-pin XLR jack – connect to
wired intercom system
ON (DOWN) – 100 ohm systems (Anchor Audio PortaCOM)

the 3 pin XLR jack on the rear panel.
2. Set WingMAN WIRED CHANNEL SWITCH to CH B.
