System description:
The ICOP 2020WMIC wireless microphone system operates as part of ICOP’s in-car DVR
(digital video recorder) system.
The ICOP 2020 Wireless Microphone System consists of 2 transceivers. The first
transceiver, called the In-Car Transceiver (2020ICT), is mounted inside the vehicle. The
In-Car Transceiver must be connected to the JBOX (junction box) to interface audio and
control signals to the DVR. The In-Car Transceiver consists of two receivers and one
transmitter, a fixed antenna, an RJ-45 connector, and a push button for synchronization
with the Remote Transceivers.
The second transceiver, called the Remote Transceiver (2020RHT), is carried by the
patrolman either on his belt or lapel. The Remote Transceiver is a self-contained unit,
which includes an internal microphone, external microphone/charge jack, battery charge
terminals, internal rechargeable battery, internal antenna, and 3 buttons for Standby/Off,
Help and Transmit Record On/Off.
The system operates in the 900 MHz ISM (Instrument Scientific Medical) band and is
license free. The system range is 1000 feet. The ICOP 2020 Wireless Microphone System
uses Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) Narrow Band FM, which provides
excellent privacy, security and avoidance of interference.
Three chargers are included with the 2020WMIC system. These are the In-Car Charger
(2020ICC), the Cigar Plug Charger (2020CPC) and the Home Office Charger (2020HOC).
In-Car Transceiver Model Number 2020ICT
Operating Instructions:
Depending on the installation, the In-Car Transceiver will have power applied at all times or
only when the ignition switch is on. The In-Car Transceiver (ICT) may be used with one or
two Remote Transceivers. Upon application of power, the In-Car Transceiver will turn on

its red SYNC Status LED and attempt a link confirmation with the first Remote Transceiver
unit on its currently assigned channels. The In-Car Transceiver will then attempt a link
confirmation with a second Remote Transceiver. After the attempts are completed, the In-
Car Transceiver’s red SYNC Status LED will blink one or two times every five seconds for
three minutes to indicate the number of Remote Transceiver units found. If no units are
found, the SYNC Status LED will remain off.
To synchronize or resynchronize the In-Car Transceiver to one or two Remote
Transceivers, place the Remote Transceiver unit(s) into the In-Car Chargers or plug into
the Cigar Plug Charger and press the SYNC button on the In-Car Transceiver. The In-Car
Transceiver will first attempt a link confirmation with assigned Remote Transceiver units in
or out of their charging bases. Assigned Remote Transceivers that are not in use should
be turned off or placed in an Office Charger to avoid unintentional resynchronization with
units not in use.
The In-Car Transceiver SYNC Status LED will light for the duration of the synchronization
and confirmation operation. If two Remote Transceiver units are found and confirmed, the
process is completed and the SYNC Status LED will blink two times every five seconds for
three minutes to indicate that two Remote Transceivers are synchronized to the In-Car
Transceiver.
If only one Remote Transceiver unit is found and confirmed, the In-Car Transceiver will
enter programming mode on the special low-power synchronization channel and attempt to
program the current security and channel information into the next Remote Transceiver unit
available in charge mode that it can find. If the programming attempt fails to find a second
Remote Transceiver, the SYNC Status LED will blink one time every five seconds for three
minutes to indicate that one remote is synchronized to the In-Car Transceiver.
Only two Remote Transceivers can be synchronized to an In-Car Transceiver at one time.
The In-Car Transceiver will add together the audio from the two Remote Transceivers
synced to it into a single audio path to be sent to the DVR. If one unit is out of range or is
not transmitting, that audio path will be muted.

2020RHT
Operating instructions:
The Remote Transceiver has an internal 550 mA hour rechargeable battery pack. Prior to
the first use the battery should be charged for 12 to 15 hours. The Remote Transceiver
can be charged through its charge terminals located on the bottom of the unit while placed
in the In-Car Charger (2020ICC) or the Multiple Office Charger (2020MOC), or through the
external mic/charge jack with the Cigar Plug Charger (2020CPC) or Home Office
Charger(2020HOC).
After the battery is charged, the Remote Transceiver must be synchronized to the In-Car

Transceivers, place the Remote Transceiver unit(s) into the In-Car Chargers or plug into
the Cigar Plug Charger and press the SYNC button on the In-Car Transceiver. The In-Car
Transceiver will first attempt a link confirmation with assigned Remote Transceiver units in
or out of their charging bases. Assigned Remote Transceivers that are not in use should
be turned off or placed in an Office Charger that is out of range of the In-Car Transceiver to
avoid unintentional resynchronization with units not in use.
The In-Car Transceiver status LED will light for the duration of the synchronization and
confirmation operation. If two Remote Transceiver units are found and confirmed, the
process is completed and the status LED will blink two times every five seconds for three

When OFF, the Remote Transceiver cannot transmit or receive. The Remote
Transceiver can be turned OFF by pressing and holding the power button for 1 second
until the green LED goes off. The green LED will turn ON for the duration of the Power
Button, press up to 1 second. If held for 1 second when the RHT is in the OFF mode,
the RHT will enter the Standby mode. If the RHT unit is currently synchronized with an
In-Car Transceiver, the Remote Transceiver will rapidly flash the green LED and
attempt a confirmation with the In-Car Transceiver. If it is not synchronized with an In-
Car Transceiver, the green LED will flash one time and begin the normal Standby mode
blinking. A momentary press and release of the Power Button will indicate the Power
On status of the RHT. If the unit is in Standby mode, the green LED will flash one time
after release and remain in the Standby mode. If the unit is in OFF mode, the green
LED will remain off after the button release.
5) CHARGE Mode
The Remote Transceiver will be in CHARGE mode while connected to any of the
charger accessories. It cannot be turned off while charging. Inserting the Remote
Transceiver unit into the charging cradle or connecting a plug-in charger will turn the
unit ON, but it will only be capable of synchronization and confirmation operations.
The unit will enter the OFF mode upon removal from the charger. The red LED turns

6) SYNCHRONIZATION MODE
While in CHARGE mode, the green LED will rapidly flash to indicate the In-Car
Transceiver (ICT) has started to reprogram the RHT with the new security code and
channel combination. The green LED will turn off when programming has switched to
confirmation mode.
The Remote Transceiver LED indicators may be turned OFF by the user for those
conditions where the bright light emitted from them is undesirable. The LEDs will always
default to ON when the unit is powered on. The ON/OFF state of the LEDs can not be
changed when the Remote Transceiver is OFF or connected to a charger.
The initial factory setting is for the LED indicators to be ON.
If the LEDs are ON, two quick presses of the HELP button within 2 seconds will turn the
LEDs OFF.
If the LEDs are OFF, two quick presses of the HELP button within 2 seconds will turn the
LEDs ON.
Pressing REC, PWR or activating the HELP function with the LEDs OFF will temporarily
override the disable to allow confirmation that the communications link status has changed.
Placing the Remote Transceiver into the charge mode will turn the LEDs ON.
