FCC LICENSING

The HME PRO850 is Type Accepted under Part 74 of the United States Federal Communications

Commission (FCC) Code of Federal Regulations governing general purpose applications. The system

requires an FCC station license if operated within the United States or its possessions. Licensing of this

equipment is the User’s responsibility. Licensability depends on the User’s classification, equipment

application and frequency selected. The user should contact the appropriate telecommunications authority

for any desired clarification.

CAUTION: Changes or modifications made by the user could void the user’s authority to operate

PRO850 equipment.

MANDATORY SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR BASE STATION INSTALLERS AND USERS

1. Use only manufacturer or dealer supplied antennas. Antenna minimum safe distance, as calculated

from FCC requirements, is 4.8cm. However, the FCC default for minimum safe distance is 20cm.

Antenna gain: zero dBi referenced to a monopole.

2. The Federal Communications Commission has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to RF

(Radio Frequency) energy, which is below the OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Act) limits.

3. To comply with current FCC RF exposure limits, the antenna must be installed at or exceeding the

minimum safe distance described here, and in accordance with the requirements of the antenna

manufacturer or supplier.

4. Antenna substitution: Do not substitute any antenna for the one supplied by or recommended by the

manufacturer or radio dealer. You may be exposing person or persons to harmful radio frequency

radiation. You may contact your radio dealer or the manufacturer for further instructions.

5. WARNING: Maintain a separation distance from the antenna to person(s) of at least 20cm.

You, as the qualified end-user of this radio device must control the exposure conditions of bystanders

to ensure the minimum separation distance (above) is maintained between the antenna and nearby

persons for satisfying RF exposure compliance.

Operation of this transmitter must satisfy the requirements of the General Population/Uncontrolled

Exposure Environment for work-related use. Transmit only when person(s) are at least the minimum

distance from the properly installed, externally mounted antenna.

PRO850 equipment operates in the UHF band from 470 MHz to 740 Hz in 18 MHz subsets. Transmitters and

receivers operate in different, non-adjacent 18 MHz bands. Synthesized frequencies can be selected in 25 kHz

increments over each 18 MHz band, for 720 transmit and 720 different receive frequencies.

Base stations can be configured with up to four receivers and two transmitters, supporting up to four Beltpacs in

full-time transmit, full-duplex operation. Two or three base stations interconnected can support up to twelve

beltpacs operating at once. The channel lockout feature supports several beltpacs sharing the same frequency.

In this mode, one beltpac user on a shared frequency can transmit at a time. If another user is already transmitting

on that frequency, a “busy” signal will be heard. A total of sixteen beltpacs can be used with a system.

A feature can be selected that scans through all available intermodulation-free frequency groups to automatically

configure the system for the best available set of frequencies. Specified frequencies can be saved for quick recall.

The PRO850 can be configured for fixed power output levels or automated output power control. With the

automated feature selected, the PRO850 senses how far a beltpac is from the base station and automatically

determines at what power level the beltpac should be operating, eliminating base station receiver overload and

increasing beltpac battery life.

Two hardwired intercom channels provide simultaneous 2-wire and 4-wire operation.

The base station headset interface automatically detects and accommodates dynamic or electret microphones.

It provides direct access to intercom channels 1 and 2, beltpacs only or all channels.

Any beltpac button can be configured to activate the base paging relay and, at the same time, audio is routed to the

paging output.

The base can be configured to initiate an alert for various conditions, including low battery condition or button

press from a beltpac.

The PRO850 is fully compatible with RTS® and ClearCom® hard-wired intercom systems.

With the provided PC850 software, the base station and beltpacs can be configured on a PC, and configuration

settings can be saved to files. An RS-232 serial port and a USB port on the rear panel of the base station provide

PC interface capability. Beltpacs can also be configured using a Palm-OS PDA with the optional PDA850 software.

The base station can operate from a standard 12-14VDC power source or from an external DC source such as a

vehicle electrical system for mobile operation.

on frequencies for the master base station for

the feature to work.

Slaves:

In the Aux Dist mode, beltpacs on slave base

stations can only talk on the same channel at

once. If they try to talk on a different channel

than the user already talking, they will hear a

busy signal in their beltpac headset.

A slave cannot have slaves. Therefore, when

Slave 1 or 2 is selected, the Num Slaves

(number of slaves) will automatically be 0.

If a slave base station has a transmitter

installed, it must be turned off. See Base TX

setup.

Base Station Intercom Configuration:

Select intercom IC1 or IC2, then use the up and

down buttons to select what mode the intercom is in.

Select the IC Lvl box, and use the control knob to

adjust the input gain level.

NOTE: If the Mode is set to Off, the input and

output of that intercom will be off. If set for

2-wire, both 2 and 4-wire will be active. If set for

4-wire, only 4-wire interface will be active.

Base Station Auxiliary Input Level:

Use the control knob to adjust the auxiliary input

level. Any change made here will be reflected in

the Monitor Input display for Aux Input.

Base Station Microphone Input Level:

Use the control knob to adjust the front-panel

headset microphone input level. Any change

made here will be reflected in the Monitor Input

display for the Mic Input.

Frequency Scan:

Connect a beltpac to the BELTPAC CONFIG

connector on the front panel of the base station to

enable scanning of base transmit frequencies.

In this operation, the beltpac and base station

receivers are scanned to find the cleanest group of

frequencies for the base station to transmit on, and

they are assigned to TX1 and TX2 in the base

station. Also, based on the number of receivers in

the system (up to 12), it determines the best group

of frequencies for the base station(s) to receive on.

Those frequencies are distributed (first-come,

first-served) to the beltpacs (with the assumption

that 16 beltpacs will be used) as beltpac transmit

frequencies. Beltpac receiver frequencies are

always the same as the base station TX1 and TX2

frequencies.

Beltpac frequency settings will not be operational

until they are uploaded to the beltpacs, which

should be done after completion of beltpac

configuration settings.

These settings will automatically be saved to File 1

as active settings for the base station until the

frequencies are scanned again. They can also be

saved to another file name for future use.

To begin frequency scanning, press the ENTER

button.

Base Station Display Contrast Level:

Use the control knob to adjust the base station

display screen contrast level.

Base Station Dial Adjustment Setting:

level adjustments made by the control knob occur

in 0.25dB increments. In the Coarse mode, they

occur in 2.25dB increments.

Beltpac Transmitter Power:

Select the desired beltpac and its transmitter

power level (1, 10, 50 or 100mW).

Select the transmit mode and press the ENTER

button.

NOTE: Settings for beltpacs B1-B16 are stored

in the base station. Changes to beltpac settings

will not be effective until they are uploaded to the

beltpacs. BPCN is the beltpac that is plugged into

the base station, therefore changes to its settings

are effective immediately.

In the auto mode, transmitter power will be

automatically controlled by the base station,

changing between 1 and the specified maximum.

In the fixed mode, the setting you select will not

change.

If you select ptt, the beltpac transmitter will be on

briefly every 5 seconds to transmit status. If you

select pts, the beltpac will only transmit while a

user is talking. If you select pte, the beltpac will

transmit constantly.

Beltpac Transmitter Frequency:

Select the desired beltpac and the transmitter

frequency for that beltpac’s operation (P1-12, S1-

12, T1-12 and U1-16. If U1-16 is selected, use

PC850 Operation

To open the PC850 software, double click on the PC850 icon on your desktop screen.

When the PC850 opens, the screen below will appear on your PC.

Select the Status, Monitor, Configuration or Information tab with your cursor. The respective screen will

appear with all the same functions and system settings that are available on the PRO850 base station. Place

your cursor over the desired setting on the screen and a drop-down menu will appear with the applicable

selections or information.

PC850 can be operated in either of two modes: Offline or Online. Offline means that the program is operated

without any connection to a PRO850 base station. In this mode, the only screens that can be accessed are under

the Configuration tab. This allows a user to set up configurations and save them to disk so that they can be

loaded into the base station later. While offline, the connection status indicator on the status bar at the bottom of

the window will be red. Online means that the base station is connected to the PC and that a logical connection

between the two has been established.

To switch to online mode, first be sure that an appropriate cable is connected between the base station and the

PC. Then select Connect from the Connect menu or press the Connect button on the toolbar. This will open the

Connect to System dialog box. There, choose the appropriate connection and click Connect. Once online, the

connection status indicator will be green.

Monitor, and Configure. The fourth tab, Diagnostics, matches the base station diagnostics menu item under the

Info menu. The functions available on each tab match those available on the base station itself. Depending on

the speed of the PC, it may be necessary to click the Freeze Screen button at the bottom of the window to make

it possible to move away from the Status or Monitor tabs. It is necessary to freeze these screens if you wish to

select a menu item while displaying Status or monitoring audio levels.

A particularly useful feature of PC850 is the ability to display (and alter) the audio connection matrix. This

window shows all possible and active audio connections. To open the window, select Audio Connection Matrix

from the View menu. Once open, the window will display all active connections as check marks beside a green

square. As connections change, the screen will be updated with the new information. To force a manual

connection, simply check the desired box(es). To break a connection, uncheck the desired box(es). Note that

two types of connections are shown: Manual connections and dynamic connections. Manual connections result

from configuration settings or functions. Dynamic connections result from Beltpac operations or the front panel

Talk button. Checking a box in the window always results in a manual connection. Manual connections are not

overridden by dynamic operations. However, clearing a connection manually does not prevent a later dynamic

or manual connection from being established. Note that the Audio Connection Matrix window can only be

opened while PC850 is “online”.

at HME’s option, either (a) return of the price paid, if any, or (b) repair or replacement of the SOFTWARE

PRODUCT that does not meet HME’s Limited Warranty and which is returned to HME with a copy of

your receipt. This Limited Warranty is void if failure of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT has resulted from

accident, abuse, or misapplication. Any replacement SOFTWARE PRODUCT will be warranted for the

remainder of the original warranty period or thirty (30) days, whichever is longer. Outside the United

States, neither these remedies nor any product support services offered by HME are available without proof

of purchase from an authorized international source.

LIEU OF ALL OTHER CONDITIONS AND WARRANTIES FOR THE SOFTWARE AND

WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, AND EXPRESSLY

DISCLAIM ALL OTHER CONDITIONS AND WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO

IMPLIED CONDITIONS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A

PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NONINFRINGEMENT FOR THE SOFTWARE AND

IN NO EVENT AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY SHALL HME OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE

TO YOU FOR ANY COSTS OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS, OR FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL,

SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF

THE LICENSE OF, USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE ANY HME SOFTWARE OR

DOCUMENTATION, EVEN IF HME HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH

DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL HME'S OR ITS SUPPLIERS' LIABILITY EXCEED THE

LICENSE FEE PAID BY YOU. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND RISKS IS REFLECTED IN

THE PRICE OF THE SOFTWARE LICENSE.

the event any such audit reveals that you have underpaid HME by an amount greater than five percent (5%) of

the amounts due HME in the period being audited, or that you have knowingly breached any material obligation

hereunder, then, in addition to such other remedies as HME may have, you shall pay or reimburse to HME the
