Higher power requires a license under Part 74 of the FCC Rules. Local Headset Options  There are two local headset options: Status or Earphones.
      23  The Status setting allows the local headset to be disabled, set up as listen only, or as a fully functioning headset (talk and listen).  The Earphone’s setting controls where the receiver audio gets routed, to the left and/or right earphones.  If Separate is selected, audio from Receiver 1 will be routed to the right earphone and audio from Receiver 2 will be routed to the left earphone.  If Combined is chosen, audio from both receivers will be routed to both earphones.  Note: If only one receiver is enabled, then the audio from that receiver will be routed to both earphones no matter what option is chosen. These options are located in the menu under “Local Headset.” ........................................TalkTalk//ListenListenBACKBACK........Earphones Earphones : : CombinedCombinedBACKBACK........Status    :SAVESAVE........Status    Status    ::..TalkTalk//ListenListenBACKBACK........Earphones Earphones : : CombinedCombinedBACKBACK........Talk/Listen................Status    Status    : : TalkTalk//ListenListenBACKBACK........Earphones Earphones : : CombinedCombinedBACKBACK........Earphones :SAVESAVE........Status    Status    ::..TalkTalk//ListenListenBACKBACK........Earphones Earphones : : CombinedCombinedBACKBACK........CombinedSelectUpDownUpDownSelectUpDownUpDown           Display Settings  Blackout Mode  SelectUpDown..................................................OFFOFF................Backlight Time Backlight Time : : 1010SSBACKBACK........LCDLCD..BrightnessBrightness..: : 33Blackout Mode  :SAVESAVE........Blackout Mode  Blackout Mode  ::................Backlight Time Backlight Time : : 1010SSBACKBACK........LCD Brightness LCD Brightness : : 33OFF

The two options are Master and Slave. When two base stations are “linked” together, one must be set up as a master and the other as a slave.   The master base station works just like a normal base station except it will receive audio from the slave base station that it will route.   The slave base station receives up to six belt packs’ audio and gives it to the master to route. The slave’s transmitters and all the ports on the back of the base station will be disabled.   • To change the base station link mode, go to LINK SETTINGS in the menu, and press SELECT. • Turn the encoder to the desired setting and  • press SAVE.

      29  Gain Adjustments Gain adjustments can be made to the following:  Intercom 1 inputs and outputs (2W and 4W) Auxiliary inputs and outputs, and  Stage Announce (and the local headset microphone which is described in the Local Headset section) All gains have eleven (11) settings.   • To change one of the gain settings, press the appropriate gain button and then use the encoder to adjust it.    The gain screen will go away after 30 seconds if no button press or encoder knob turn is made.   When changing one of the gains a bar graphic along with a number will be displayed on the screen to show the current setting.   A label telling what gain it is and a status (when applicable) is also shown.  • Turn the encoder knob clockwise to increase the gain and counter clockwise to decrease the gain.  The change will take place immediately.   • When finished, press SAVE to save the change, otherwise press BACK, or wait for the timeout to cancel any changes (the value will revert back).   Note: Stage Announces’ gain can be changed at anytime, however Intercom 1 and 2 and Auxiliary need to be enabled to be able to change their gains.

      31  Intercom CH1 and CH2 Buttons and LEDs  These two buttons allows the base station user to transmit on Intercom Channel 1, Intercom Channel 2 or both.   When enabled the audio will be routed through that intercom channel (and not routed when it is disabled).   There are two LEDs above each of these buttons: • The one on the left is a green LED that is on when that channel is enabled and off when disabled.  • The LED on the right is a red and green LED combo.  It is green when that intercom channel’s audio is being routed and the talk button is pressed and red when this is true plus the user’s microphone is over modulating.  Talk Button The Talk button allows the base station user to transmit.  The button can be pressed and held or “tapped” on and off.   Belt Pack Operation            Figure 8 Belt Pack Power Button
      32  Battery Before the belt pack is turned on, be sure to attach a fresh battery pack.  During operation, the battery meter will display the battery’s status.  Powering Up To turn the belt pack on, press the power button as shown in Figure 8 above.  While the belt pack is powering on, a splash screen will be displayed.  RADIOACTIVEDESIGNS . . .  Once the belt pack is ready to go, the home screen will be displayed.  Powering Down To turn the belt pack off, press and hold (approximately 3 seconds) the power button until the LCD screen goes blank.
      33    Home Screen Talk Buttons and LEDs The belt pack has four talk buttons with a corresponding set of green and red LEDs.   The top two talk buttons, Intercom Channel 1 and Intercom Channel 2, are fixed in functionality although the label names are programmable.   The bottom two talk buttons are programmable with the following choices:  • Intercom Channels (CH) 1 & 2 • Wireless-Talk-Around (WTA) 1 • Wireless-Talk-Around (WTA) 2  • Wireless-Talk-Around (WTA) 1 & 2  • Stage Announce (SA).   The home screen displays this information in the four boxes in the corners of the screen.  Each talk button has a green and red LED set.   The green LED turns on to show that the transmitter is active for that channel.   The red LED turns on when microphone over modulation occurs while transmitting.  Intercom and Programmable Button Labels The home screen displays a boxed “T” next to each talk button label box to show the transmitter’s status for each button.   The “T” means that the transmitter is on, and a box around the “T” means that the mic is unmuted.   Note: it is possible to turn on the transmitter with the microphone muted (no audio is transmitted).  Signal and Battery Meters The signal and battery meters are there to assist the user.   The signal meter is an average of both receiver’s signal strength if both are enabled, or if just one receiver is enabled it is that receiver’s signal strength.   The battery meter displays the battery’s status.  Local Headset Volume The headset volume is changeable via the two knobs: • Left changes Channel One • Right changes Channel Two   If the local headset volume option is set to COMBINED, both knobs change volume of both receivers proportionally.
      34  Power / Menu Button This button is used to turn on and off the belt pack, as well as to get into and out of the menu.   • When the belt pack is off, press the button to turn it on.   • When on, press and hold (approximately 3 seconds) to turn it off.   • To get into or out of the menu, when the belt pack is on, press (without holding) the button.
