6 General Information The Revolabs FLX2 Conference Phone includes several components which, in the sum, make up the conferencing phone. The components are the Charge Base, Speaker, Microphones and Dialer (handset). In addition, the Base Station receives the wireless signals from those components and connects into your telephone network for conference calls, with your video conferencing unit to provide outstanding audio for your video calls, or to your Bluetooth enabled device such as a cell phone or computer.
7 Quick setup for Telephone Conference Calls While all components delivered with the Revolabs FLX2 Conference Phone are partially charged, we recommend charging the Speaker, the Microphones, and the Dialer for at least 8 hours or overnight before starting to use the system. Please note that the Revolabs FLX2 Conference Phone comes with two different power supplies. Please ensure that you are using the correct power supply when connecting the Base Station and the Charger Base. Connecting the Base Station Place the Base Station close to the analog telephone outlet you want to use for the conference phone. Connect the Base Station to the telephone network using the provided RJ 11 Telephone cable. Use the 5 Volt power supply to connect the Base Station to the power outlet. The Base Station will power up. Connecting the Charger Base Place the Charger Base at a location where you can easily access the Microphones and the Speaker for your conference calls, e.g. on a side board, a desk, or the conference table. Connect the Charger Base to the power outlet using the provided 12-15V power supply. Place the Speaker, the Microphones, and the Dialer in the respective openings of the Charger Base to charge them. The Microphones, Dialer and Speaker will automatically connect to the Base Station after a short time if it is powered up. You will hear a confirmation chime from the Speaker once the system is ready for use. If any of the Microphones, the Speaker, or the Dialer is not powered up, take them out of the Charger Base for a few seconds and put them back in. This will switch on each of the components.
8 Making a call To make a conference call, take at least one of the Microphones out of the Charger Base, and take the Dialer out of the Charger Base. You can remove all Microphones and the Speaker if you wish, but this is not required. Use the Dialer to enter the number you want to call, including any leading digits your telephone connection might require. The Speaker and any Microphone that is not in the Charger Base will be active during the call. To finish a conference call, press the red hang-up button on the Dialer. NOTE: It is also possible to have a conference call with the microphones in the charger base. However, due to the proximity of microphone and speaker at that time, audio quality might be impacted. The maximum volume of the speaker is limited while the microphones are in the charger base. Microphones that are placed into the charger base will be automatically muted. To use microphones in the charger base they have to be unmuted manually after establishing the call. If any microphone is active outside of the charger bay, microphones in the charger bay cannot be activated (unmuted) for the call. To make a call using the Dialer as a handset, make sure that all Microphones are in the Charger Base before starting to dial the number. At this point, only the Dialer will be used for the call. To end the call, press the red hang-up button on the Dialer. At any time during a call you can toggle between handset and conference phone mode using the buttons on the Dialer. To answer a call using the conference phone, simply remove one or more Microphones from the Charger Base when the Speaker rings. If a microphone is already out of the charger base when an incoming call comes in, pressing the button on the microphone will answer the call in conference phone mode. You can also use the Dialer to answer the call by pressing the green call button on the handset. If all microphones are in the charger at this time, the call will be answered using the handset mode. If at least one microphone is switched on and not in the charger base, this will answer the call in Conference phone mode.

10 Installing FLX2 Components The Revolabs FLX2TM System is comprised of several components that work together to provide you with a great wireless conferencing system. These components must be setup correctly for optimal performance of the system. FLX2 Base Station The Base Station is the wireless receiver and sender of the audio stream from the Microphones and to the Speaker, as well as to the Dialer. It features the ability to connect two Revolabs FLX Microphones and one Speaker wirelessly. The Base Station is designed to optimize audio and video conferencing by providing consistent audio input from all participants. The FLX2 Base Station is shown in rear panel view below. It is equipped with a telephone connection to connect to an analog telephone output, a DC power connection, two mini-USB ports for firmware updates, and analog audio input/output connections for video conferencing collaboration or for recording. NOTE: The Base Station comes equipped with the necessary cables and power supplies to perform an analog telephone conference call. Other types of conference calls performed with FLX2 may require additional cables that are not part of the delivery.
11 FLX2 Charger Base The FLX2 Charger Base, shown below, provides charging capabilities for all battery operated system components, including the Dialer, the Speaker, and the Microphones, by allowing them to charge in one simple and organized location. The FLX2 Charger Base is not required while in a conference call, however it can maintain the charge of the FLX Speaker and FLX Dialer while a call is in progress. The Charger Base is equipped with a DC power connection and a mini-USB connection for firmware updates to the Dialer.
12 FLX Dialer The FLX Dialer equips the user with an intuitive and interactive tool for configuring and operating the FLX System. The Dialer is not only used to make and answer conference calls, but it is also used for configuring the system settings, having a call using the handset, and monitoring the system components. The FLX Dialer, shown below, is composed of several parts such as a color LCD screen, a compilation of buttons, and a microphone and handset speaker.
13 FLX Speaker The FLX Speaker, shown below, is a wireless active omnidirectional speaker that has been designed and optimized specifically for use with the FLX Conferencing System. The Speaker is equipped with a pairing button on the bottom and 4 LED indicators on the top to display the activity of the Speaker and the mute status of the system. The Speaker can operate in or out of the Charger Base during conference calls.
14 FLX Microphones The FLX Microphones provide a sleek and unobtrusive form factor allowing for closer proximity to the participants and creating the best audio available to the far end. They are equipped with a button for pairing and muting, an LED indicator to display mute status and battery charge level, and an internal buzzer to warn if the Microphones have lost connection to the Base Station. The FLX Microphones, shown below, come in three different versions to provide a flexible solution to meet all applications of conferencing spaces. Microphone types include an omnidirectional tabletop Microphone, a directional tabletop Microphone, and a wearable lapel style Microphone. Any combination of FLX Microphone can be used with a FLX System as they are mix and match. FLX Microphones will operate in or out of the Charger Base. It is recommended to always remove the microphones from the charger tray for conference calls as audio on the speaker and the microphones is limited while in the charger base. When using Microphones in the charger tray system behavior is automatically adjusted to the close proximity of speaker and microphones.
15 Initial Setup After unpacking the FLX2 Conferencing System, there are a few initial setup tasks that must be performed before a call can take place or any system configuration can be changed. Connecting System Cables The FLX2 Base Station and Charger Base each have a power supply that needs to be connected, as shown below. In addition, the Base Station needs to be connected to the telephone network using the provided RJ11 telephone cable before a conference call can be made. The Base Station offers additional optional connections that are only being used when the FLX2 System is connected to a video conferencing unit or a recording device. The cables required for these connections are not included with the FLX2 system and need to be purchased separately. Managing A Call The FLX2 Wireless Conferencing system is equipped with a telephone interface that allows the system to make telephone conference calls. The following are the basic operational instructions for making and receiving telephone conference calls. Calling Configurations The FLX2 Wireless Conferencing system has the ability to make and receive calls in many different ways. This provides the caller the ability to choose what mode or call type best suits the needs of each individual call. Speaker Mode Speaker mode allows the call to take place using the Speaker and Microphones provided with the FLX2 System. This allows multiple users, within the conference room, to participate in the call. It also provides the ability for the Microphones and Speaker to be located anywhere in the conference room to meet the needs of each meeting. The call, as well as the Speaker and Microphones, are controlled by the FLX Dialer. The user can switch between ‘speaker mode’ and ‘handset mode’ while in a call.
16 Handset Mode Handset mode allows a telephone call to take place through the handset speaker and microphone located in the FLX Dialer. This allows a single user to make and receive a private call. It also provides the ability for the FLX2 System to act as a personal desk phone. The Microphones and Speaker are not used during a handset call. The user can switch between ‘speaker mode’ and ‘handset mode’ while actively in a call by using the key marked ‘‘Handset’ or ‘Speaker’. NOTE: To switch from a handset call to a speaker call at least one Microphone should be out of the Charger Base and switched on, and the Speaker must be switched on. If all Microphones are in the Charger Base when switching from the handset call to a speaker call, at least one of the Microphones in the Charger Base has to be unmuted manually. Telephone Call The FLX2 Conference Phone allows making conference calls using an analog telephone connection. A telephone call can be made using either ‘speaker mode’ or ‘handset mode’. A telephone call can be made at the same time as a video call. Telephone calls are controlled via the FLX Dialer. Bluetooth Call The FLX2 System is equipped with a Bluetooth interface that supports the Hands Free Profile (HFP). This profile allows to make a call through a cell phone, a computer, or other device via a Bluetooth connection. A Bluetooth call can be made using ‘speaker mode’ only. A Bluetooth call is controlled by the connected Bluetooth device. A Bluetooth call can be made at the same time as a video call. NOTE: Revolabs FLX only supports the Hands Free Profile (HFP) for Bluetooth 2.0 or higher. Applications that try to use the Bluetooth connection not using the HFP profile, or that are using an older HFP / Bluetooth standard are not supported by FLX. Video Conference Call The FLX2 System can be connected to a 3rd party video or PC conferencing system via the Analog I/O ports located on the FLX2 Base Station. This allows the Microphones and Speaker to be used as the audio interface for the video conference call. Video Conference calls are controlled primarily by the video conference system. However, audio properties can be controlled via the FLX Dialer. While the FLX2 Conference Phone is connected to a video conferencing device, it might still make and accept calls over the analog telephone connection or via a Bluetooth device. NOTE: When using the FLX connected through the AUX IN and AUX OUT to another device, only the FLX speaker can be used. All other speakers must be switched off. Any Echo
17 Cancellation provided on the Video Conferencing unit must be switched off. NOTE: For security reasons, Microphones will not send any audio signal to the AUX OUT connector when in the charger. To receive audio signal on the AUX OUT, microphones have to be taken out of the Charger Base.

22 Note: When using the red ‘End Call’ button while another caller is on hold, that caller will remain on-hold in the telephone network. The FLX2 Conference Phone will not be able to retrieve that call. Charging Components during a Call Each system component will respond differently when placed in or out of the charger during an active telephone call. The following is a description of what can be expected. Dialer When the Dialer is placed into the Charger Base during a call in ‘speaker mode’, the call will not be affected and the Dialer will enter its charging mode. When the Dialer is placed into the Charger Base during a ‘handset mode’ call, the call will end and the Dialer will enter its charging mode. When the Dialer is removed from the Charger Base no change to call activity will take place. If there is no active call, the Dialer will revert to the home screen. <<< Add a picture of the home screen >>> Speaker When the Speaker is placed into the charger during a call the Speaker will reboot and enter its charging mode. During the reboot the incoming audio from the conference call will mute until the reboot is complete (Approximately 6 seconds). Once the reboot is complete the audio will resume on the speaker. When the Speaker is removed from the charger no change to call activity will take place. Microphones When a Microphone is placed into the charger during a call it will automatically mute and enter its charging mode. If all Microphones are placed into the charger during a speaker call, all microphones will mute and will need to be manually un-muted. It is not recommended to use the microphones in the charger tray for a speaker call. If at least one Microphone is outside the charger base active, the Microphone in the Charger Base cannot be unmuted. When a Microphone is removed from the charger, it will automatically power on and if “Start Unmute” is ON, unmute itself. If there is an incoming call when a Microphone is removed from the charger the call will automatically be answered.
23 Bluetooth The FLX2 System is equipped with a Bluetooth interface allowing a call to be placed through a cell phone, computer, or 3rd party Bluetooth device. The FLX Microphones and Speaker then act as the Microphone and Speaker for that call. The FLX2 System only supports the Hands Free Profile for Bluetooth 2.0 or newer. Should the application on the computer, cell phone, or other 3rd party device require other profiles to be supported, FLX cannot act as the Speaker and Microphone for that application. Please contact the provider of the application to find out which Bluetooth profile can be supported. Activating Bluetooth 1. Go to the Menu Bluetooth. Select ‘Turn On’ to activate Bluetooth. 2. Select ‘Yes’ when prompted 'Enable Bluetooth Radio?'.

26 Making a call via Bluetooth 1. With the Bluetooth connection enabled, dial a number from the Bluetooth device. The call will be conducted using the FLX Speaker and Microphones. Answering a call via Bluetooth 1. You can answer a Bluetooth call directly from your FLX system. If answering the call with the FLX system it will automatically be in speaker mode. 2. If you answer the call using your Bluetooth device, settings on that device will determine whether the call will be answered as a speaker call using the FLX Conference Phone, or as a call using other audio devices. If you want to have a private call not using the FLX as the Speaker of the call, ensure that you select the correct audio output device in your Bluetooth enabled device. Video Conference Collaboration The FLX2 System is equipped with balanced analog audio input and output to be connected to 3rd party video or PC conferencing system. This allows the FLX Microphones and Speaker to be used as Microphones and Speaker for the video call. It also provides Acoustic Echo Cancelation and Noise Control to the video call. Connecting a Video Conference System In the advanced audio setting (see page 38), change the Aux Audio setting for Aux Out to MIC. Then connect one of the AUX OUT on the FLX2 Base Station via an appropriate mono balanced or unbalanced cable with 3.5mm plugs to the ‘Mic Input’ on the video conference system. The line level audio AUX IN on the FLX2 Base Station should be connected, via the appropriate mono balanced or unbalanced 3.5mm cable, to the ‘line output’ of the video conference system. As the FLX system provides the Echo Cancelation for the call, any Echo Canceler in the Video Conferencing unit needs to be switched off. Not switching off the Echo Canceler in the Video Conferencing unit will negatively affect the audio on the FLX Speaker and Microphones. Please visit the documentation of your video conferencing unit on how to disable the Echo Canceler. Any audio device like external speaker or TV speaker attached to the video conferencing unit needs to be disabled. The FLX Speaker and Microphones become your only audio devices for the Video Conferencing call. Any other devices will affect the Echo Canceler and will cause negative impact on the audio of the call. For security reasons the FLX Microphones will not send any audio to the AUX OUT while in the Charger Base. The microphones have to be removed from the Charger Base to send audio data to the AUX OUT connector. Configuring the Analog Audio For best audio results, the AUX IN and AUX OUT connectors have to be configured in the right way to receive best results with your video conferencing unit. This requires testing and setting of the values in your environment. See page 35 on how to set the
27 level for the AUX IN connector. This can be either microphone level or line level. See page 38 on setting the volume for the AUX OUT connector. Making a Video Call The FLX2 System acts as a wireless Microphone, Speaker and mixer for the video conference call. Once configured, a video call can be made using the 3rd party user interface supplied with the video conference system. Simply remove the Microphones from the charger to activate the analog audio input. Mixing the audio signals <<< Add some description about the new audio mixer >>>
28 FLX2 System Configuration There are many features to the FLX2 System that can be modified and configured using the FLX Dialer. The following is a list of those features and their options. Menu Hierarchy <<< Is this still accurate? Did we add menu items like Audio Mixer? >>> Menu Navigation 1.

44 Troubleshooting Warning Messages Speaker / Microphone Link Lost If a FLX Microphone or FLX Speaker loses connection to the FLX2 Base Station, the LED indicator will begin flashing a sequence of red – yellow - green - yellow and start emitting a beeping notification. To reconnect the Microphone or Speaker move it back into range of the Base Station. Speaker/Microphone Low Battery If a FLX Microphone or FLX Speaker begins to experience a low battery, the LED indicator will begin to flash a green - yellow (unmuted) or red - yellow (muted) sequence. It will also start to emit an audio signal. When this LED and sound sequence begins, the battery has roughly 5% battery power remaining and should be returned to the Charger Base. Speaker/Microphone Off If the FLX Microphone or FLX Speaker suddenly turns off, it is the result of two possible causes. 1. The battery has completely depleted and should be returned to the charger until it is fully charged again. 2. The Microphone or Speaker lost connection with the Base Station for more than 5 minutes and therefore shut down. It should be returned into reach of the Base Station and switched on again to be reactivated. Dialer Low Battery When the Dialer experiences a low battery it will display a ‘low battery’ notification on the screen. The Dialer should be returned to the charger until the battery status on the home screen shows a full charge. Dialer Link Lost If the FLX Dialer loses connection to the FLX2 Base Station it will display a ‘connection lost’ notification on the screen and starts emitting a warning sound. The Dialer should be moved back into range of the Base Station at which point it will reconnect automatically. Base Power Lost If the FLX2 Base Station loses power, it will disconnect all telephone calls, analog audio inputs/outputs and will disconnect from the FLX Dialer, Speaker, and Microphones. Check to make sure that the power adapter is still connected to the FLX2 Base Station. Once the FLX2 Base Station is powered back on, the Dialer, Speaker and Microphones will reconnect automatically. Microphone, Speaker, or Dialer not connecting to Base Station If any of the components of the FLX2 Conference Phone indicate that they are searching for the Base Station, or lost the connection to the Base Station, please follow these steps: 1. Is the Base Station powered up – the Status LED on the back of the Base Station should have green double flashes about every second. If not, please power up the Base Station. All components should automatically connect to the Base Station after a few seconds.
45 2. The Base Station is powered up, but the Status LED indicates a fault by missing every fifth green double flash. Power down and power up the Base Station. All components should reconnect to the Base Station after a few seconds. If the fault in the Base Station continues (every fifth double flash is skipped) please contact Revolabs support. 3. Are the Dialer, Microphone, and Speaker out of reach of the Base Station? Please bring the components closer to the Base Station to see whether this resolves the issue. 4. Power down the Base Station, the Microphones, the Dialer, and the Speaker. Now power up the Base Station. Once the Base Station is powered up (double green flashes of the Status LED), power up the Dialer, and then the Microphones and the Speaker. The components should now connect to the Base Station. 5. If the components still do not connect to the Base Station, please re-pair the components that have not connected to the Base Station, beginning with the Dialer. How to pair the components is explained on page 40. 6. If the components still do not connect to the Base Station, please contact Revolabs support. Microphone, Speaker, or Dialer not paired with Base Station Please follow the descriptions on page 40 on how to pair the different components with the Base Station.
