Telex Model RKP-4 Beltpack    Owners / Users Manual (Preliminary Information)  General Description:  The Telex model RKP-4 beltpack transceiver is a component of the RKP-4 wireless intercom system. The RKP-4 is intended for use as a belt worn wireless full duplex intercom radio for use in a professional installation such as television or cinema production.  A RKP-4B base station can be used with one RKP-4 beltpack.  The RKP-4 transmits within the 614.1 to 746 MHz range (TV Channels 38-59).  It receives in the 482 to 607.9 MHz range (TV Channels 16-36).  The TR-1 transmitter operates on a single frequency within an 18 MHz wide section of the transmit frequency range.  The receiver also operates on a single frequency within an 18 MHz wide section of the receiver frequency range.  Typical transmitter conducted output power is 50 mW. The RKP-4 transmit power can be set to automatically reduced when the unit is close-in to the base station to aid in intermodulation reduction and unnecessary transmit power.  Operating frequencies can be selected from pre-set groups or the user can select special operating frequencies within the 18 MHz wide allotments.  The Rear LCD display and buttons plus the talk function switch, is located on the back panel.   From the rear LCD display and buttons the following menus may be obtained:  • Group and Channel • Transmit Frequency • Receive Frequency • Battery Life • Microphone Gain  The top LCD display and associated buttons are used to access various users on any digital matrix system attached to the base station.  The user’s name is displayed on the top LCD if the base station is attached to a matrix system.  The on/off/volume control, talk and listen buttons, talk and listen lights, low battery indicator, microphone audio level indicator are located on the top panel.  Transmit and receive antennas are attached to the RKP-4. Either or both unscrew for field replacement but are not coaxial connectors.   The RKP-4 beltpack can be powered by AA Alkaline or a Nickel-Metal Hydride Battery pack.                         Page 1 of 3
