Overview
Congratulations on your purchase of JTECH Communication’s state of the art
GuestAlert or PeopleAlert Desktop Paging System. Using the Desktop
Transmitter you can easily page site mobile employees or customers with
vibration/tone, numeric pagers, the popular Glowster vibe/flash pagers and the
new CommPass family of Vibe, Tone, Flash and Voice pagers. If so equipped,
pages can also be sent using the PeopleAlert Telephone Interconnect option.
A numeric message of up to sixteen digits can be sent to a single numeric pager
or a group of numeric pagers. Vibration/tone pagers can be paged individually or
in groups, and Glowster and CommPass family pagers can be paged individually
or all together using the special ‘All Call’ feature. The system supports multiple
transmitting units and approximately 9,950 total pagers. The system is designed
to support a paging area of up to two miles; however each location has its own
distinct characteristics that will affect coverage.
The GuestAlert 200 Series, PeopleAlert 2600 and PeopleAlert 2601 with
Telephone Interconnect systems are FCC licensed products.

Installation
Installing the Transmitter
The first consideration in the placement of the transmitter is convenience. It
should be readily accessible in a central location within the paging area. Pay
close attention to nearby obstructions such as walls, pipes, ducts, mirrored glass,
or other similar barriers that may weaken or misdirect transmitted signals.
Certain materials and construction, especially metal, have the potential to
partially or completely block the paging signal.
Fig. 1 – Desktop Transmitter
The next consideration involves safety. Ensure the unit is securely mounted and
away from liquids, extreme heat and possible physical damage. Also remember
that the transmitting unit requires an AC power outlet. Be sure an antenna is
attached prior to applying power to avoid damage to the transmitter.
JTECH UHF Desktop Transmitter Installation and Operation Guide
320115K
Page 2
The transmitter can be mounted in one of two ways: 1) placed on a flat surface
such as a counter or desktop with the attached stand, or 2) mounted to a wall
using the attached stand as a mounting plate. Four holes are provided to
facilitate wall mounting. The four #6 screws are user provided and can be
purchased from a local hardware store. When placed on a flat surface the angle
of the unit may be adjusted using the thumbscrews on either side of the unit.
For best results, the transmitter antenna must be vertical. Ideally the transmitter
should be centrally located within the area where paging is to occur. Since this is
not always possible, range testing at different locations may be required to obtain
the desired performance. See the special function section of this guide entitled
‘Range Test’ for more information. Also consult your Sales Consultant for
additional information.
Once the Desktop Transmitter and antenna have been installed, plug in the
power adapter. Once powered the transmitter will display ‘Enter Pager #’’
indicating it is ready to send a page. The red power light (PWR) will be lit.
PeopleAlert 2601 Telephone Interconnect Transmitter Connection
Connect one end of the RJ-11 phone cord to the phone jack on the side of the
unit and the other to an available phone jack line in your telephone system. The
Phone Interconnect requires an analog phone jack; the Telephone Interconnect
must be able to hear the tones from a push button telephone. Please refer to the
section entitled ‘Telephone Interconnect Specifications’ for additional help in
determining the type of phone line.
Optional Magnetic Mount Antenna
The optional Magnetic Mount Antenna with its 12-foot extension cable should be
mounted vertically and as high as possible. Its base is magnetized for mounting
convenience but does not have to be attached to a metal surface. If the
Magnetic Mount Antenna is not attached to a metal surface, please ensure that it
is secured in some way. This antenna is designed for indoor use only.
Optional Extended Range
The Extended Range Options include:
1) A 6’ antenna and cable, which will boost signal by approximately 15%.
2) An indoor/outdoor antenna, a 50-foot cable, 35-watt power amplifier and
power supply. This option increases the power output of the transmitter to
from 2 watts to 35 watts, and increases range to up to 5 miles in open
areas. Installation of this antenna and power amplifier requires special
skills. Consult your JTECH Sales Representative for additional
information. This option is not available in certain countries.
Because implementation of Extended Range Options boosts transmitter power
(ERP) output above 2 watts, these options require FCC Approval and Licensing.
Your JTECH sales manager can assist in securing appropriate FCC licensing.

Transmitter Function Menu
The Desktop Transmitter functions are accessible from a function menu that is
accessed by pressing the * key. In an effort to reduce potential system problems
due to erroneous changes in system settings, most of this menu is password
protected. The factory default password is “1234.” Most commonly used
transmitter functions are also available via 4-digit code access, codes which are
supplied on the magnetic guide that is shipped with your transmitter. A detailed
review of these functions appears in the appendix of this manual.
Pagers
The GuestAlert and PeopleAlert systems support RapidCall vibration/tone
pagers, RapidCall Numeric pagers, the popular Glowster vibe/flash pagers and
the distinctive new CommPass pagers. Your pagers were programmed by
JTECH to meet your requirements as confirmed with your Account Sales
Executive or Corporate Sales Representative.
Vibe/Tone Pager
There are a number of optional programming modes available with the
RapidCall vibe/tone pagers. The pager is programmed with one primary ID
number and there are options to also program that same pager to support groups
1, 2 and 3 or multiple vibrations.
The option to enable the RapidCall vibe/tone pager to support groups 1, 2 and 3
pre-programmed from the factory allows all pagers identified within these groups
to be alerted with a single transmission.
The option to enable the RapidCall vibe/tone to support multiple vibrations preprogrammed from the factory allows all pagers identified with a multiple vibe
option to be alerted with a single, double or triple vibration as follows:
1 vibration = 1xxx#
2 vibration = 2xxx#
3 vibration = 3xxx#
(x meaning the pager id number or in instances where the pager id number is less than
3-digits the x is replaced with a zero (0))
Example:
Send 2 vibe alert to pager id 1 = 2001#
Send 3 vibe alert to pager id 2 = 3002#
Send 2 vibe alert to pager id 12 = 2012#
Send 3 vibe alert to pager id 224 = 3224#
Additionally, these pagers may be a member of one of the dynamic groups. The
possible pager numbers are 1 - 9950. To page all vibe/tone pagers at once (All
Call feature), enter “9998#”on the keyboard or the phone. For pagers supporting
over-the-air shut down (RapidCall vibe/ tone), turn off all pagers by entering
“9991#” on the keyboard or the phone.
JTECH UHF Desktop Transmitter Installation and Operation Guide
320115K
Page 4
Numeric Pager
Numeric pagers can have four ID’s each. The first is used as its unique ID for
single pager paging or as a member of a dynamic group while the second, third,
and fourth ID may be used to enable factory programmed group paging. For
example, pagers 1-20 could be programmed with numbers 1-20 as their first ID.
Pagers 1-10 could also be programmed with ‘factory programmed GROUP 2’ as
their second ID; pagers 11-20 could be programmed with ‘factory programmed
GROUP 3’ as their second ID. This would allow pagers 1-10 to be ‘factory
programmed group paged’ when “*2#*” or “*2*5678#” is entered on the
PeopleAlert keypad or phone and pagers 11-20 to be factory programmed group
paged when “*3#” or “*3*5678#” is entered. For pagers, such as the RapidCall
Numeric, supporting shut down, turn off all pagers by entering “9993#” from the
keyboard.
Glowster Vibe/Flash Pager and CommPass Pagers
The Glowster and CommPass vibe/flash pagers can be programmed with one
primary ID number, which can be used for single pager paging. Glowsters and
CommPass Pagers also respond to the All Call feature.
Range Test
A range test verifies the paging coverage area. Press the * key to get to Range
test screen selecting this option with the # key, or simply enter 9990# from the
keyboard. The Range Test feature sends a Range Test page approximately
every seven (7) seconds to all pagers that have been placed in Group #99. (See
Dynamic Group related instructions in this guide under transmitter operations for
detailed information the group feature.) Range testing is performed by carrying
that pager slowly to the place where the periodic page cannot be received this
establishes the range for transmission. Press any key on the transmitter keypad
to terminate Range Test mode.
Group Paging
The Desktop Transmitter supports group paging, although it is rarely used in
hospitality applications. Two categories of groups exist:
• Hardware groups (1-9) are pre-preprogrammed at the factory and call
RapidCall pagers identified within the group with a single transmission
• Dynamic groups (1-99; max 10-12 pagers per group) are user-programmable
and call pagers within the groups successively vs. via a single transmission
Groups not available with Glowster or CommPass pagers, as these pagers are
not typically used for staff paging applications where group paging is most used.
Additional details on group paging appear in the transmitter feature section of this
guide or contact your JTECH Account Executive or JTECH Customer Care.

Using the RapidCall™ Vibration/Tone Pagers
Battery Installation
Slide the battery door latch in the direction of the arrow on the pager (Fig. 2.)
Slide the battery door down from the top to open. Insert one AA alkaline battery,
observing the proper polarity. Replace the battery door and lock into place.
Fig. 2 – RapidCall Pager (rear)
Fig. 3 – RapidCall Pager (front)
Low Battery Indicator
The light located on the top of the RapidCall pager will flash red and the pager
will emit a short beep, indicating the battery is low (Fig.3.) If the green light
flashes every five seconds, the battery is OK. If no light is present, the battery is
dead and needs to be replaced.
RapidCall Pager Operation
1. The RapidCall vibration/tone pager is simple to operate, featuring a single
button design (Fig. 3.) To turn on the pager, press firmly and hold the button
on the side of the pager for approximately five (5) seconds. Installing the
battery will also turn the pager on. When activated, the pager will vibe and
tone for three (3) seconds, indicating the start up self-test is complete. Once
“on,” the light located on the top of the pager will flash green every five (5)
seconds to indicate the pager is on. To page a RapidCall pager from the
Desktop Transmitter keypad, type the pager number followed by the # key.
JTECH UHF Desktop Transmitter Installation and Operation Guide
320115K
Page 6
2. To page the RapidCall vibration/tone pager pre-programmed with the multiple
vibration option from the master transmitter keypad, type
1 vibration = 1xxx#
2 vibration = 2xxx#
3 vibration = 3xxx#
(where x represents the pager id ; in instances where the pager id number is less than 3digits the leading x is replaced with a zero (0))
Example: Send 2 vibe alert to pager id 1 = 2001#
Send 3 vibe alert to pager id 2 = 3002#
Send 2 vibe alert to pager id 12 = 2012#
Send 3 vibe alert to pager id 224 = 3224#
3. To page a RapidCall pager from the telephone interface on the PeopleAlert
2601, pick up the receiver, listen for the dial tone, and dial the system
extension or analog phone line number that has been assigned to the Paging
System. The line will ring until the unit answers, at which point the Out-ofRange (OOR) signaling is temporarily de-activated. When connected (a beep
indicates the system is ready for you to enter the pager number) press the
number of the pager (up to four digits) you wish to page, using the telephone
keypad, and press the # key to send the vibration/tone page. The same
option to page with multiple vibrations is available from the telephone
interface by dialing into the assigned extension and following the instructions
noted above.
Once “on,” RapidCall vibration pagers can only be turned off by sending the
appropriate transmission from the Desktop transmitter. This over-the-air (OTA)
transmission sends a sleep message to ALL RapidCall vibration pagers. To shut
off RapidCall Vibe/Tone pagers with the OTA command, type 9991 # from the
transmitter keypad. All pagers will respond with a short vibe-tone-flash.
Receiving Pages
When a page is received, the RapidCall pager will alert depending on how it has
been ordered and subsequently programmed:
• Vibe only pager: 4 seconds of vibration with a solid green LED
• Tone only pager: 4 seconds alternating beeps and flashing green LED
• Vibe and tone pager: 4 seconds alternating vibration, beep, and flashing
green LED
Press the button on the side of the pager to stop the alert or wait until the alert
stops by itself. The pager is now ready to receive the next page.

Using the RapidCall Numeric Pagers
The RapidCall Numeric pager option is primarily used to provide specific numeric
information or codes to individual recipients or groups of individuals.
The RapidCall Numeric pager operates in a virtually identical manner to the
RapidCall Vibration pager described in the preceding section, with the addition of
a top-mount LCD display panel. As such, only specific variations to the numeric
pager are highlighted in the balance of this section. Please see the preceding
section for most general RapidCall pager functions and diagrams.
Pager Operation
All of the RapidCall Numeric pager functions are activated
through the use of one button, making it the easiest pager
to operate.
ONE BUTTON OPERATION
Fig. 5 – RapidCall Numeric Pager
To Turn the Pager On/Off
To turn the pager ON, depress the button for 1-second and then release the
button. The LCD will display “JTECH", and a speaker icon to denote that the
pager is on and ready to receive messages. The LED flashes green every 5seconds to indicate pager readiness. To manually turn the pager OFF, depress
and hold the button until "Off" is displayed, and then release the button. The
LCD will display a blank screen when the pager is turned off. The RapidCall
Numeric pagers may also be shut off over the air by inputting 9993# from the
Desktop transmitter keypad or the telephone interface. This will send shut off
ALL RapidCall Numeric pagers on the system.
Selecting the Pager Alert
Depress and hold the button until your choice of SILENT OR AUDIBLE is
displayed. When in the Silent mode, the pager vibrates until the button is
depressed or continues to vibrate for 4-seconds. Use the silent mode in
situations where an audible sound might disturb others. When in the Audible
mode, you hear a beep tone along with the vibration alert when a message is
received. The speaker symbol is displayed in the LCD display indicating the
pager is in Audible mode.
JTECH UHF Desktop Transmitter Installation and Operation Guide
320115K
Page 9
Receiving and Reading Messages
When a page is received, the pager alerts for 4-seconds. Press and release the
button to stop the alert. Press and release the button again to display the
message. Messages containing more than 12 digits continue on a second
screen, which is indicated by a continuation arrow (Æ) in the lower right corner of
the display. The second screen displays automatically after 4-seconds or by
pressing the button if there is rollover data. The number of unread messages is
indicated on the display (e.g. 01 PAGE). Up to ten 16-digit messages can be
stored in the pager. To read other messages, continue pressing the button to
scroll through the messages.
"FULL" is displayed when there are too many unread messages in memory. If
this happens, an incoming message bumps the first (oldest) message, whether
read or unread, out of memory. After scrolling through all of the messages, the
standby screen is displayed. The duplicate message indicator is displayed in the
upper-right corner if the same message is received more than once.
Deleting Messages
To delete an individual message: Display the message to be deleted by
depressing the button for 2-seconds. Depress and hold button until the LCD
displays "DEL" and then release button. To delete all messages: From the
JTECH standby screen depress and hold the button until the LCD shows
"ERASE ALL" and release the button. This will delete all messages except
Unread Messages. The display will return to the standby screen (JTECH).
Battery Installation
Battery installation is identical to the process described in the RapidCall vibration
pager section. Similarly, installing the battery will turn the pager on. The pager
will enter a self-test mode by emitting one short beep and vibration; the red and
green LED lamps will turn on for 1-second each. The LCD will then initially
display 88888888, all ICONS and then the pager will display "JTECH" on the
display. Be advised that changing the battery resets the pager memory, erasing
stored messages. Please remember to read all messages before removing the
battery.
Note: Typical operation of the button is to initiate power on, change the mode of
alerting, read messages, delete messages or turn the pager off. Depressing then
releasing the button in less than 2 seconds will bring up messages. Advancing
through messages is done in the same manner. Depressing the button for over 2
seconds brings up the delete message function or the scroll list depending on
what state the pager is in when the button is depressed. If the button is
depressed for over 2 seconds while a message is displayed, the delete function
is activated. This is a non-reversible function and that message will be deleted.
If the button is depressed and held for over 2 seconds while the pager was in
standby mode ("JTECH" displayed on the LCD) then the scroll list will appear.

Using the Glowster Pagers
Battery Installation
The Glowster and Patient Pager products are powered by a user-replaceable
rechargeable Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery pack. To replace the battery
pack, remove the battery door screw and battery door located on the rear of the
pager (Fig. 6). Remove the existing battery pack and place a new pack into the
battery compartment. (For your convenience, JTECH offers a replacement
battery pack; order with part number 232020.) Once battery pack is installed,
replace the battery door and reinstall the screw. After installing the replacement
battery pack, the heartbeat indicator should be visible.
Fig. 6 – Glowster Pager Top and Bottom
Glowster Heartbeat/Charge Indicator
Under normal operations, Glowsters display a solid red ‘ready’ light when on the
charging rack. Immediately after removing a Glowster from the charging rack,
this ‘ready’ light will go out and, after 3 seconds, a short vibe/flash ‘test page’ will
occur, alerting the operator that the Glowster is ready for use. When off the
charging rack and operating normally, the ‘ready’ light LED will flash as a
'heartbeat' indicator every two seconds to indicate proper operation.
When placed on the charging rack in a low battery state, the ‘ready’ light will
display a rapid ‘double flash,’ indicating that the unit has entered the cautionary
1-hour mandatory minimum charge routine. After 1-hour, the low-battery ‘double
flash’ indicator will be replaced by the solid red ‘ready’ light. For optimal
performance, Glowster pagers should charge for an eight (8) to twelve (12) hours
to become completely recharged. When off the charger, if the Glowster detects
insufficient battery power, the heartbeat indicator will stop, and the unit will enter
a sleep state until placed back on the charger, where it will enter the 1-hour
mandatory charge routine.
JTECH UHF Desktop Transmitter Installation and Operation Guide
320115K
Page 11
During normal operations, if the Glowster charging indicator lights continue to
flash the single-flash heartbeat indication while on the charging rack, it is likely
that the charging rack is not getting enough power from the power adapter.
Ensure that the JTECH power adapter is properly connected to the charging
rack. After having previously confirmed the power adapter connection, if after 60
minutes the heartbeat indicator lights continue flashing while the Glowsters are
on the charging rack, contact JTECH Customer Care.
Warning: Never remove a Glowster or Patient Pager from the charging rack and
distribute it to a guest or patient while the ‘double flash’ minimum charge
indicator light is flashing, as it is possible that the unit will not function while in the
hands of your customer due to insufficient power.
Glowster Pager Operation
Prior to the initial use of the system, place all pagers on the Charger Rack
(Fig. 7) for a minimum of 24 hours to fully charge the rechargeable battery pack.
This will also initialize the Glowsters which are shipped in “sleep mode” to
preserve battery life. (The contact with the charging base or a Glowster stack will
initialize the Glowsters.) When not in use, Glowsters should always be stored on
the charging rack. When placed on the rack, Glowster pagers will display a solid
red charging light, although the pagers will no longer respond to transmissions
from the master transmitter.
Fig. 7 – Glowster Pagers on 4-stack Charger Rack
Upon removal from the charging rack, after a three (3)-second delay, the
Glowster pagers will respond with a short demo page, followed by a “heart beat”
indicator light which will flash briefly every 3 seconds indicating that the pager is
operator to easily preview the normal alert to the guest, patient or customer.

Receiving Pages
To page a Glowster pager, type the pager number followed by the # key on the
master transmitter keypad. The pager will respond with the default alert that has
been programmed into the master transmitter. The factory default is Alert 3.
Ex.
If “Default # Vibes ?” on the transmitter has been set to “3” the
pager will respond with three (3) 15 second alert cycles for a total
45 second page alert.
You can also send an individual alert that is different from the default by entering
a “0” before the pager number and enter the alert number after the “#”. (See
Table 1 on page 16 for complete alert definitions.)
Ex.
Send a fifteen (15) minute alert (alert 5) to pager #12.
On the master transmitter keypad type in “0 1 2 # 5”. (This
particular feature is also referred to as “long page”.)
Optional “Tone” Glowster
An optional version of the Glowster pager includes Tone alerts, providing 3 short
bursts of a double tone alert prior to the standard vibration and flash alerts.
Should Tone Glowster be ordered, and it be subsequently decided that the tone
is undesirable, the tone can be deactivated from the transmitter by sending the
“Audible OFF” transmission. This command can be activated by pressing 9995#
from the transmitter keypad. It is essential that all Glowster pagers be off the
charging rack and not stacked to be able to “hear” the “Audible OFF” command.
Standard Glowster Alerts
Alert 1 – Vibe, and Flash for 1 15-second cycle.
Alert 2 – Vibe, and Flash for 2 15-second cycles (30 Sec.)
Alert 3 – Vibe, and Flash for 3 15-second cycles (45 Sec.)
Alert 4 – Vibe, and Flash for 4 15-second cycles (60 Sec.)
Alert 5 – Vibe, and Flash for 60 15-second cycles (15 Minutes)
All standard Glowster alerts are preceded by the pulse tones with the Tone
Glowster pager. Again, the factory default setting is Alert 3.

Glowster Charger Rack
The Charger Rack is a multi-functional base unit on which the Glowster pagers
are stacked and stored for convenient usage (Fig. 9), as well as charging. When
placed on the rack, Glowsters no longer receive or respond to transmissions from
the master transmitter. The 1-stack and 4-stack rack options support a maximum
of 15 and 60 Glowster pagers respectively, with15 Glowsters per stack.
Fig. 9 – Glowster Charger Rack
Fig. 10 – Wooden Storage Rack
A wooden storage rack option is also available for both the 1-stack and the 4stack charger racks to assist in management and storage of the Glowster pagers
(Fig. 10.) The wooden rack is designed to include the charger rack and up to 60
Glowster pagers (4 stacks of 15) configured with or without the optional pager
promoback attachment.
Care and Maintenance
Wipe vibe/flash pagers with a soft cloth moistened with mild soap and water.
Never spray liquids (cleaning solution or water) directly on the pagers.

Glowster Special Functions
Out-of-Range Alert
The Out-of-Range (OOR) alert will notify the guest, patient or customer that
he/she has traveled beyond the range of the transmitter and will not be able to
receive notification when service is available. The OOR tone alert will repeat
every three (3) seconds for five (5) minutes while the Glowster remains Out-ofRange. Glowster Voice pagers for restaurants will supplement the OOR tone
alert with a periodic OOR alert voice prompt (see Voice Prompts below). After
five (5) continuous minutes of OOR alert messaging, the OOR alert on the
individual pager will cease. The OOR mode may be turned ON from the master
transmitter function menu or by typing 9996 # from the keypad, and turned OFF
with the command 9997 #.
NOTE: If the Out-of-Range feature is to be used, range testing is required
in order to most accurately set the transmitter power level. For more
information, please refer to the Coverage Area/Range and Range Test
sections of this Guide.
Search
The Search feature is intended to provide a method to recover pagers discarded
within the transmitter coverage area. A special Search transmission is sent by
the master transmitter approximately every 12 seconds. All “awake” Glowster
pagers within range of the transmitter will respond with Search alert (Tone or
Voice, depending on product purchased) at 12-second intervals. Search is turned
on from the master transmitter via the menu or by typing in 9999 # from the
keypad. Pressing any key on the transmitter keypad will terminate Search mode.
Glowster with Voice
If the Glowster with Voice model for Restaurants was purchased, the pagers can
be set to respond with appropriate voice prompts for Alert #1 through Alert #5,
Search, and Out-of-Range. Voice prompts may accessed from the master
transmitter by typing in “ 9994# (ON) and 9995# (OFF) ”. Proper implementation
of the Voice (Audible) on/off function requires that all Glowster pagers be
“awake” (off the charger rack) in order to recognize the transmission.
The Voice Prompts are:
Alert 1 – 5:
“Your table is ready. Please return to the hostess.”
Out-of-Range:
“You are Out-of-Range and cannot receive a page.”
Search:
“I’m not lost, I’m over here.”

Using the CommPass Pager
General Description
The CommPass pagers include a standard promotional area that can be easily
customized by the user for branding or promotional advertising to cater to guests,
patients, families and shoppers. Each CommPass pager ships with its’ standard
promotional (promo) insert that is color/texture coordinated and specific to the
distinct market where it will be used.
Fig. 11 – CommPass Pagers
“Promo” Lens
The promo lens (Fig. 12) is designed to securely protect your promotional piece
while also providing access to the battery compartment as needed. The promo
lens is held in place by two latches, accessible with a special “key” that ships
attached to each CommPass charger (see Fig. 14a). This key is also available
as an accessory purchase.

Pager Operation
Prior to the initial use of the system, place all CommPass pagers in the
CommPass Charger (Fig. 13a) for a minimum of 12 hours to fully charge the
rechargeable battery pack. This action will also initialize the pagers, which are
shipped in “sleep mode.” When not in use, CommPass pagers should always be
stored in the charger. When placed in the charger, CommPass pagers will not
respond to transmissions from the master transmitter.
Fig. 13a – CommPass Charger
Fig. 13b – Heartbeat
Upon removal from the charger, the CommPass pager will respond with a short
demo page, followed by the “heartbeat” indicator light (backlit pager number at
base of pager, Fig. 13b) which will flash approximately every 3 seconds
indicating that the pager is awake and ready to receive pages. This initial demo
page also allows preview of the normal alert to the guest, patient, customer, etc.
CommPass Charger
CommPass pagers are stored in the Charger (Fig. 13a) for convenient usage.
The pager receiver is deactivated when placed in the charger (i.e. it will not
respond if paged from the transmitter.)
The CommPass charger efficiently stores 20 CommPass pagers in a minimum
space. The CommPass charger can be daisy chained to a maximum of three (3)
chargers (supporting up to 60 pagers) on a single specialized power supply also
available from JTECH. A small green power indicator light is visible in the center
of the charger base between the pager stacks, which will illuminate when power
is properly supplied to the charger.
JTECH UHF Desktop Transmitter Installation and Operation Guide
320115K
Page 18
Wall Mounting the CommPass Charger
Mounting holes are available on the rear of the charger unit to facilitate wall
mounting, if desired. The mounting holes are positioned 3” apart down the
vertical axis of the unit. To wall mount the charger, determine the desired
placement area ensuring at least 12” of vertical clearance, and 7” horizontally.
Make sure that an AC outlet is within 10’ of the base of the unit for power
requirements. Beginning at the lowest centered point desired for use, measure
up 6.25” to the lower screw hole and mark that spot. From that location,
measure up an additional 3” and mark the upper screw location. Use a level to
ensure mounting holes are vertically aligned.
Depending on construction, use wall anchors, toggle bolts or screws to ensure
that the maximum weight of a full charging unit (approximately 12 lbs.) can be
supported. Mount to a wall stud where possible. Leave approximately 0.125”
(1/8”) of clearance between the screw head and the wall to accommodate the
back wall thickness of the charger. Place the charger mounting holes over the
screws and snug the charger downward onto the mounting screws. Remove the
charger and adjust the screws accordingly to finalize the installation.
CommPass Pager Charge Indicator
Under normal operations, when in the charger, CommPass pagers display a solid
green charge indicator ‘ready’ light, illuminating the pager ID number at the base
(foot) of the unit as depicted in Fig. 13b above. Out of the charger, the green
backlit pager ID number will flash intermittently displaying a normal “heartbeat”
when the pager is in use.
Should the pager enter a low battery state, this flashing green heartbeat indicator
will change to a flashing yellow, indicating a need for recharging. When placed in
the charger in a low battery state, the charge indicator light will display a yellow
“double flash” every second, indicating that the unit has entered the 30-minute
mandatory minimum charge period. After 30-minutes, the yellow ‘”double-flash”
will be replaced by a solid yellow indicator for an additional 30 minutes,
completing the 1-hour minimum charge routine. After 1-hour in the charger, the
yellow indicator will return to the green ‘ready’ state. This will indicate the pager
should have sufficient power to be used to complete the shift, but not necessarily
a complete charge. (An 8-hour pager re-charge is recommended at this point.)
For optimal performance, CommPass pagers should charge for a minimum of 2-6
hours to become completely recharged, depending on the degree of available
charge in any given pager at time of recharging. When out of the charger, if the
CommPass detects insufficient battery power for an extended period of time, the
charge indicator light will cease to illuminate altogether, and the unit will enter a
non-functional “sleep” state until placed back in the charger where it will enter the
1-hour mandatory minimum charge routine. Note: If a CommPass pager is
removed from the charger during the initial 30-minute “double-flash” minimum
charge period, the pager remains non-functional.

Sending Pages
To page a CommPass pager, type the pager number followed by the “#” key on
the master transmitter keypad. The pager will respond with the default alert that
has been programmed into the master transmitter. The factory default is Alert 3.
Individual alerts different from the factory default may be sent by entering a “0”
before the pager number, followed by the pager number and the “#” key. Next
enter the alert number (1-5) when prompted followed by the “#” key.
Ex.
Send the “Alert 5” (15-minute extended alert) to pager number 23.
From the transmitter keypad, type in “0 2 3 #” followed by “5 #”.
Note: Depending on install date, some legacy PeopleAlert system transmitters
may not support the “Default # of Vibes” feature from the transmitter
menu. Please consult JTECH Customer Care for additional instruction.
Search
The Search feature is intended to provide a method to recover pagers discarded
within the transmitter coverage area. A special Search transmission is sent by
the master transmitter approximately every 12 seconds. All “awake” CommPass
pagers within range of the transmitter will respond with standard CommPass
Voice Search Response) at 12 second intervals. Search is turned on from the
master transmitter via the menu or by typing in 9999 # from the keypad.
Pressing any key on the transmitter keypad will terminate Search mode.
Voice Alerts
All CommPass pagers offer standard voice alerts for “Out of Range” and
“Search.” These voice alert features can reduce loss and improve usability for
the end-user. Standard voice alerts include:
Out-of-Range:
“You are Out-of-Range and cannot receive a page.”
Search:
“I’m not lost, I’m over here.”
If the GuestPass with ‘Table Ready’ Voice Alert model was purchased, the
pagers will respond with appropriate voice prompts for Alerts #1 through #5
“Your table is ready. Please return to the hostess,” as well. Table Ready
voice alerts may be turned on and off from the Desktop Transmitter using the
‘Audible ON/OFF’ commands (9994# / 9995#) or from the function menu.
Voice requirements for non-hospitality markets and custom voice alerts for
restaurant applications are handled on a case-by-case basis due to the custom
nature of these business opportunities. In these cases, the client may be
responsible for providing the proper voice file to meet the JTECH specification.
Note: CommPass pagers must be “awake” (out of the charger) in order to
recognize the Audible ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’ transmissions.
JTECH UHF Desktop Transmitter Installation and Operation Guide
320115K
Page 20
CommPass with Tone
In most instances, Vibration and Flash alerts are the norm. However, in certain
environments, a tone alert is also desired and as such, the GuestPass, MediPass
and ShopperPass pagers can be ordered with a Tone capability. When paged,
CommPass with Tone provides a short series of tone signals prior to the
standard vibration and flash alerts. The tone alert option is not available with the
Full Voice (Table Ready) GuestPass pager or with any Custom Voice
CommPass product as these are mutually exclusive features.
It is possible to disable the Tone Alert in a CommPass with Tone pager by simply
invoking the “Audible OFF” command from the master transmitter. Remember
that all CommPass pagers must be out of the charger and “listening” for the
Audible Off transmission to respond appropriately. See table 2 for complete
details on the CommPass and CommPass with Tone.
Battery Installation
CommPass is powered by a user-replaceable rechargeable Nickel-Metal Hydride
(NiMH) battery pack, ensuring maximum system up time by eliminating the need
for a CommPass pager to ever be returned to JTECH for battery-related issues.
To replace the battery pack, insert the Promo Lens Key into the pager (Fig. 14a)
exposing the battery compartment (Fig. 14b). This key hangs from the side of
the charging unit.
Fig. 14a – Promo Key
Fig. 14b – Pager Battery Cavity
Remove the existing battery pack and disconnect the wire connector. Connect
the wire connector from the new battery pack to the appropriate receptacle in the
battery compartment inside pager (Fig. 15a and 15b.)

Page 21
Once the battery pack is installed, replace the promo insert and the lens cover.
After installing the replacement battery pack, the charge indicator should be
visible. Charge the pager for at least 2 hours. If the promo key was removed
from the bungee cord hanging on the charger, return it to that clasp so that it will
be available the next time that it is required.
NOTE: As a consumable item, the standard warranty on the rechargeable NiMH battery pack is
90-days. If a battery-related failure is experienced during this time, simply contact JTECH
Customer Care for a replacement. Outside of the 90-day warranty period, JTECH offers a
replacement NiMH battery pack at a nominal charge, which can be ordered with part number
232020.
Promo Insert Installation
Listed below are the steps depicting the process of inserting a new promo insert
into the CommPass promo area:
1. Insert key into latch area at top of CommPass pager, releasing the lens.
2. Open the promo lens area by first sliding the lens “down” in the direction of
the base, and then rotating the lens away from the pager housing.
3. Remove, replace and secure the promo insert (Fig. 16).
4. To re-attach the lens, re-position the tabs at the base of the promo lens
into the slots at the base of the CommPass pager housing, sliding the lens
“up” in the direction of the “top” of the pager.
5. “Close” the promo lens until the tongue latches on the inside top of the
lens cover slide into the slots in the CommPass pager housing and the
unit “clicks” shut.

Appendix B – Technical Information
Vibration/Tone and Vibration/Flash Pagers (POC Types)
Vibration/Tone pagers are not capable of displaying any information; they can
simply vibrate, emit a tone, or flash. In some cases, vibe/flash pagers also offer
pre-recorded voice alerts.
Numeric Pager (NUM type)
Numeric pagers are capable of displaying 1 to 16 numeric digits. It will not
display an alphabetic message. When this class of pager is targeted to receive a
page it must receive a numeric only radio transmission. If a numeric only pager
receives an alpha transmission sent to its ID, it will attempt to decode the
message and will then display nonsense on the screen. Numeric only pagers are
not ‘smart’ enough to know not to attempt to display alpha data. Therefore the
software sending the transmission must be smart enough not to send alpha data
to numeric only pagers.
Alphanumeric Pager (ALP type)
Alphanumeric pagers are capable of alpha or numeric characters with the exact
capacity based on the individual pager model, transmitter and software. Most will
display an alpha message as well as a numeric message. When this class of
pager is targeted to receive a page, it may receive either numeric only or alpha
data and if the pager is properly set up, it will display either type of data properly.
Alphanumeric pagers require special set up and adherence to special
transmission rules to properly display both alpha and numeric only radio
transmissions. The PeopleAlert can only send numeric data to an alphanumeric
pager.
Cap Codes
POCSAG (POC) pagers must receive a special seven-digit “address” to let it
know that the message that follows is for this particular pager. This “Address” is
referred to as its Cap Code. A Cap Code is the actual seven-digit numbers that
must be received by a POCSAG pager to have the pager receive a message.
The number of the pager is not necessarily the same as the Cap Code. JTECH
assigns and manages unique 3-digit prefixes to provide site uniqueness and
eliminate potential interference from other nearby businesses operating on the
same frequency.
Pager Number
Pager Number often refers to the one to four digit numbers placed on a pager label. In
systems that support cross-reference tables, the Pager Number may only be the
number on the label of the pager and only serve as a cross-reference to its actual Cap
Code.

Appendix C – Transmitter Power Adjustment
The UHF Desktop Transmitter offers a full 2 watts of power output to deliver
considerable range and is shipped from the factory at the full power setting as a
default. The transmitter also offers an internal adjustable power setting controller
to best exploit these range capabilities (Fig. 11.)
Low Power
High Power
Enlarged sectional side view of transmitter (far left) with examples of the power adjustment
control showing reduced power (low; 100mW) to full power (high; 2W) power
(Note: CCW = counter-clockwise; CW = clockwise)
Setting Power for use with Out-Of-Range (OOR)
When implementing the OOR feature with the Glowster or CommPass pagers,
JTECH recommends initially adjusting the transmitter power to the lowest power
setting (full CCW – see above), based on the transmitter having shipped at the
default 2 watt high power setting. Once adjusted to minimum power, to increase
the overall range, adjust the power upward (turn power screw to the right) in
small increments until achieving the desired range (before the OOR alert is
observed.) In almost all cases, very little power will be required to effectively
utilize the OOR feature. Area coverage and range estimates for the UHF
Desktop transmitter are depicted in the chart below. Transmitter location and
building construction will have a significant impact on range. Site specific testing
is required to optimize coverage area.

NOTE: It is possible to reduce the power output below the lowest (100mW) setting to achieve
very short range with the OOR feature by inserting an attenuator between the transmitter antenna
port and the wire antenna. For example, a 6dB attenuator will reduce the power output at the
lowest power setting by approximately half. Please consult JTECH Customer Care to attempt to
achieve very short range limits in conjunction with the OOR feature.
Under no circumstances should the transmitter be operated without the
antenna as this will void the warranty and may damage the transmitter unit.

Appendix D – Telephone Interconnect Specifications
Telephone Interfacing
Phone Line Interconnect – The PeopleAlert 2601 with Telephone will accept input
from end-to-end (line level) telephone circuits. Selector or trunk level input is not
possible. The phones and phone system must be capable of DTMF and provide
a Bell standard ringing voltage.
PABX Interface – The PABX (Private Automated Branch Exchange) or PBX
(Private Branch Exchange) must pass DTMF tones (touch tones), and Ringing
Voltage, for the PeopleAlert with Telephone to work. A simple test can be used
to see if DTMF tones are passed through the telephone system. Dial a phone
extension and depress any of the keys on the phone pad. If the party you called
can hear tones, then the system does pass DTMF. Because many of the newer
PBX’s are numeric systems, they may not pass DTMF. In this situation, the
customer must install a separate DTMF-capable end-to-end phone line for the
PeopleAlert 2601. Special feature phone consoles may not use DTMF signaling
and you can also use the test described above to test the phone consoles.
Key System – Some customers may not have a PBX, but may have multiple
telephone lines, which are connected to numerous phone sets with push buttons
to activate “pick up”. In this situation, a separate telephone line should be
dedicated to the PeopleAlert 2601 with Telephone and users would dial a 7-digit
phone number to access the PeopleAlert 2601.
Telephone Interconnect Description
The Desktop Transmitter Telephone Interconnect is that of a very basic ‘Line
Level’ hook-up which operates in the following manner:
•
The telephone system supplies battery voltage across Tip and Ring. The
telephone system applies -48 volts on Ring and ground on Tip.
•
When someone calls a PeopleAlert with Telephone, the telephone system
applies an interrupted ‘Ringing’ voltage (two seconds ring, four seconds rest)
across Tip and Ring. Ringing voltage is an approximately 105 VAC signal.
•
The 2601’s telephone module detects the ringing. The encoder’s telephone
module goes off hook, energizes a relay, and puts a low impedance closure
across Tip and Ring, back to the telephone system.
JTECH UHF Desktop Transmitter Installation and Operation Guide
320115K
Page 33
•
The telephone system then detects current flowing from its battery. The
current flow energizes relays in the telephone system, which connects bidirectional audio lines through Tip and Ring to the PeopleAlert with
Telephone.
•
Once connected, the PeopleAlert 2601 with Telephone prompts the caller to
enter a pager number with a tone. The caller must enter this number via a
true DTMF tone (touch tone) telephone. The DTMF tones must be at least 50
mSec in duration with at least a 50-mSec pause between digits. Numbers
entered via Rotary dial, or some Digital phone systems are not recognized by
the PeopleAlert with Telephone.
•
Termination of the call can be accomplished in three different ways:
1) The calling party hangs up their telephone before the PeopleAlert 2601
with Telephone times out. This terminates the call at the telephone end, but
not at the encoder’s end. The disconnect created by the caller hanging up its
telephone never makes it through the connection between the telephone
system and the PeopleAlert with Telephone. To overcome this loss of a
disconnect signal the encoder uses an ‘inactivity timer’ which will time out and
terminate the call, in the encoder, after a loss of audio on Tip and Ring for
approximately four seconds.
1. 2) The PeopleAlert 2601 with Telephone times out before the calling
party hangs up the telephone; this terminates the call at the encoder’s
end.
3) The calling party enters the correct string of digits described in the section
‘Paging a Single Pager Using the Telephone Interconnect’. When the last
(#) pound key is pressed, the 2601 will disconnect and terminate the call.
