The 22-Pin connector on

every cable is keyed so

that it will only attach to

a compatible side con-

nector. If a cable can

attach to multiple side

connectors, it is keyed

(or not keyed) so that it

will attach to all compati-

ble side connectors.

WARNING!: Ensure that

the unit is POWERED

cable to a side connec-

tor.

2To connect a cable to a

!IMPORTANT INFORMATION!:

▶To communicate with an MPU5, the computer must have an IP address in the same subnet

mask as the MPU5’s IP address.

▶For example, with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, the computer and MPU5 will be able

to communicate if they share the same ﬁrst three numbers in their respective IP addresses

(e.g. 10.3.1.10 and 10.3.1.254).

▶If the computer and MPU5 do not share a subnet mask, the computer and MPU5 will not

be able to communicate.

▶If either the computer or MPU5 do not have an IP address in the same subnet mask, the

computer and MPU5 device will not be able to communicate.

Selecting Channels

1In the Selected Channel ﬁeld, enter the channel(s) you wish to transmit on.

2In the Monitor column, check the left box for each channel you wish to monitor. You will be

able to hear PTT audio on the monitored channel.

Pro Tip: you may select any number of channels to monitor. In the Monitor column, check

the box for each channel you wish to monitor. You will NOT be able to transmit PTT audio on

channels other than the one you selected in Step 3.

3In the Channel ﬁeld, uncheck the Network Default box and enter the desired channel name.

4In the Multicast Address ﬁeld, uncheck the Network Default box and enter the desired mul-

ticast address and multicast port in the form <multicast address>:<multicast port>.

Note: valid multicast address values are in the range 224.0.0.0 - 239.255.255.255

Note: valid multicast portvalues are in the range 1 - 65534

Note: each channel MUST have a unique multicast address and multicast port.

DEVICE OPERATION: CONFIGURING PTT SETTINGS

Using Wave Relay® Push-to-Talk

1Ensure that your PTT device is connected and channel settings have been conﬁgured proper-

ly and as desired.

2Press and hold the PTT button on the PTT device.

3Wait to hear a single beep.

4Talk.

5Release the PTT button when you are ﬁnished talking.

▶You may talk or listen, but you may not do both simultaneously.

▶Transmissions from an individual user are broadcast to all other users on the network using the

same channel.

▶Only one person may talk on a channel at one time. If you try to PTT while another user is trans-

mitting, you will hear a busy signal.

▶Selected Channel audio will interrupt Monitored Channel audio.

▶Flash Override audio will interrupt both Selected Channel and Monitored Channel audio.

DEVICE OPERATION: CONFIGURING PTT SETTINGS

Using Flash Override

1To activate Flash Override, “tap-tap-hold” the PTT button (press and release the PTT button

quickly in succession, then press and hold the PTT button for the duration of the transmis-

sion)

2The transmitting user and all receiving users will hear three beeps.

3Talk.

4Release the PTT button when you are ﬁnished talking.

Flash Override is a feature that allows a user to transmit audio to all nodes on the network regard-

less of which channel they are operating on.

Flash Override audio will interrupt all audio on all channels.

PROFESSIONAL INSTALLER – COMPLIANCE

The following notes refer to these part numbers: RF-2001

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is

Subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any

interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

Le présent appareil est conforme aux la partie 15 des règles de la FCC et CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux

appareils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l’appareil ne doit

pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le

brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.

NOTE: THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE CAUSED BY UNAU-

THORIZED MODIFICATIONS TO THIS EQUIPMENT. SUCH MODIFICATIONS COULD VOID THE USER’S AUTHORI-

TY TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT.

NOTE II: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to

Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference

when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate

radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful

interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.

OPERATING FREQUENCY: Operating frequency is determined by the installer. It is important that the frequency con-

ﬁgured meets local regulations.

In addressing the MSD for operation of the RF-2100 S-Band (2200MHz – 2500MHz) radio mod-

ule, the applicable Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits were obtained IAW the FCC rules

for radio frequency radiation exposure limits under

FCC Title 47, Chapter 1 Subpart 1 Article

1.1310

.

Notes:

*Occupational/controlled exposure limits apply in situations in which persons are exposed as a con-

sequence of their employment provided those persons are fully aware of the potential for exposure

and can exercise control over their exposure. Limits for occupational/controlled exposure also apply

in situations when a person is transient through a location where occupational/controlled limits

apply provided he or she is made aware of the potential for exposure. The phrase

fully aware

in the

PROFESSIONAL INSTALLER – COMPLIANCE

context of applying these exposure limits means that an exposed person has received written and/

or verbal information fully explaining the potential for RF exposure resulting from his or her employ-

ment. With the exception of

transient

persons, this phrase also means that an exposed person has

received appropriate training regarding work practices relating to controlling or mitigating his or

her exposure. Such training is not required for

transient

persons, but they must receive written and/

or verbal information and notiﬁcation (for example, using signs) concerning their exposure poten-

tial and appropriate means available to mitigate their exposure. The phrase

exercise control

means

that an exposed person is allowed to and knows how to reduce or avoid exposure by administrative

or engineering controls and work practices, such as use of personal protective equipment or time

averaging of exposure.

** Cable loss is the minimum cable loss that may exist between the antenna port and the 7.4dBi

antenna. 0.50db cable loss was taken into consideration when calculating minimum distance.
