The ICOP 2020 Wireless Microphone System consists of 2 transceivers. The first transceiver, called the BASE Transceiver (2020 WBASE), is mounted inside the vehicle. The BASE Transceiver must be connected to the JBOX (junction box) to interface audio and control signals to the DVR. The BASE Transceiver consists of two receivers and one transmitter, a SMA connector for connection of one of the 2 optional antennas, an RJ-45 connector, and 2 docks for charging and syncing 2 MIC transceivers. The second transceiver, called the MIC Transceiver (2020 WMIC), is carried by the patrolman either on his belt or lapel. The MIC Transceiver is a self-contained unit, which includes an internal microphone, external microphone/charge jack, battery charge
terminals, internal rechargeable battery, fixed 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. BASE Transceiver Model Number 20/20 WBASE Operating Instructions: Depending on the installation, the BASE Transceiver will have power applied at all times or only when the ignition switch is on.

To synchronize or resynchronize the BASE Transceiver to one or two MIC Transceivers, place the MIC Transceiver unit(s) into the BASE Chargers. Synchronization shall occur automatically with any MIC transceiver(s) that are docked in the BASE. When the MIC is inserted into the BASE charger, the MIC shall turn on if it is not already on. If the MIC is already in the BASE when the BASE is powered on, the MIC shall turn on. If 5 minutes passes with no activity, the MIC shall go to stop mode. If a record session is active when a MIC is placed in the BASE, one of the following conditions will apply: Mic Charging Ports Antenna Connector (Not Shown) Charge Status LEDs DC Jack RJ-45 Connector
1. If the inserted MIC is the only MIC currently synced to that BASE, the MIC shall stop transmitting audio and shall transmit a data packet with the security code and the turn off command to the BASE unit to stop recording. 2. If the inserted MIC is one of two MICs currently synced to that BASE and it is in an active record session, the MIC shall stop transmitting audio and shall transmit a data packet with the security code and the turn off command to the BASE unit to stop recording. The BASE shall stop the record session with that MIC, but not the other MIC if it is also active. 3. If the inserted MIC is not one that is currently synced to that BASE, sync with that MIC shall be held off until the record session is ended either by manually turning off the record session or by inserting the one or both active MICs into the BASE.

Buttons and Modes of Operation The MIC Transceiver Wireless Microphone can be switched between three modes of operation: 1) TRANSMIT Mode In TRANSMIT mode the Wireless Microphone is fully operational and is transmitting and receiving continuously. Audio transmitted from the microphone can be recorded on the DVR. To select TRANSMIT mode, push the record (REC) button on the MIC Transceiver. Transmit mode can also be selected from the DVR. The MIC Transceiver will indicate that it is transmitting audio by lighting the Green LED indicator. The MIC Transceiver will indicate that it has moved out of range of the BASE Transceiver by turning off the Green LED and lighting the Yellow LED indicator. 2) HELP Mode In HELP mode the Wireless Microphone is fully operational and is transmitting and receiving continuously. In addition, a signal is activated to the DVR to indicate that the user has pressed the HELP button. To select HELP mode, push the HELP button on the front of the MIC Transceiver. The LEDs will continuously repeats the pattern green/red/yellow/red separated by longer periods of green or yellow range status indication. After every 7th repetition of the green/red/yellow/red pattern, the red LED quickly blinks 1 or 2 times to indicate a low battery during the green or yellow range status indication.
