Initial Equipment Set-Up Unpacking Unpack your RadioCom System. A system package should contain the following Items: Contact the shipper or your dealer immediately if anything is damaged or missing. Fill out the regis- tration card and return it to T elex to properly regis- ter your unit.
Attach the transmit 1/2-wave antenna to the antenna input receptacle labeled “T ransmit” on the left side of the rear panel. The antenna should be vertically aligned. Figure 10 Attaching T ransmit 1/2-W ave Antenna Antenna Polarization The T elex W ireless Intercom System is “V ertically Polarized”.
Keep the distance between the BTR and the TR as short as possible. The greater the distance, the weaker the signal. Make sure the “signal paths” be- tween the BTR and TR are unobstructed. Y ou should be able to visibly locate the antennas at all times for best performance.
Figure 16 Antenna Placement Improving Reception and Incr easing Range Keeping the distance from the base station and beltpack as short, and unobstructed as possible will produce the most reliable performance. The base station is supplied with two antennas.
Base Station Set-Up Location Locate the base station on a level surface with the rear of the unit facing you. See “Antenna Informa- tion” section for more information on choosing a lo- cation. Rack Mounting T wo kits are available for rack mounting the base station.
RF T ransmit Mode Switch Allows the operator to select three different types of transmitting modes; continuous transmit, transmitter off, or remote transmitter . For most operations, place the transmitter switch in the “CONT” position (Continuous mode).
Audio Channel Switch Intercom T ype Set to T elex Selects either “IC 1 or 2" (and corresponding pins on ”IC Loop-thru"). In “Auto” position the switch allows selection of channels 1 or 2 from the beltpack.

Auxiliary Audio Connection The 6 pin telephone jack (RJ-1 1) may be used to supply audio into and out of the base station. R TS Matrix type intercoms may be interfaced to the base station through this jack. Since audio is not “Channelized” through this jack, the audio channel switch has no effect on the audio passed through the jack.
Beltpack Set-Up Headset Connection Insert the headset/microphone into the connector on the bottom on the unit. See the headset connection diagram (Figure 8) if a unit other than T elex headset is used. Figure 33 Connecting Headset RF T ransmit/Receive Channel Switches Allows the user to select which of the two RF chan- nels the unit is on.
Battery Installation Insure that the OFF/ON volume control knob is turned OFF . Press down the battery release latch and remove battery pack. Pack slides off in opposite direction. Replace batteries as follows: Figure 36 Battery Installation -19- 1. Open the battery pack by inserting finger nail and lifting as shown.
Pr e-W alk-Thru Checklist Following the instructions fully to this point you have successfully completed the following check- list: ❒ Located the base station properly . ❒ Connected power to base station transceiver . ❒ Connected the 1/2-wave antennas to the base station.
System Operation Base Station Operation Power If you have followed the instructions until this point you should now be ready to turn both the beltpack and the base station “ON” Place the power switch on the base station in the “ON” position. The green power on indicator LED should illuminate.
Dual Listen Level This control is related to the dual listen switches. It controls the level of the audio mix. For more infor- mation on the dual listen switches, refer to the “Base Station Set-Up” section. Figure 40 Dual Listen Level Control Intercom Level I/C IN Adjusts the level of the Intercom system’ s audio into the base station.
Beltpack Operation Power/Local Headset V olume Y ou should now be ready to turn the beltpack “ON”. Rotate the OFF/ON V olume Control Switch on the beltpack clockwise to turn the unit on.
Figure 45 Microphone Gain Sidetone Level Regular TR beltpacks have their sidetone control lo- cated on their respective base stations (See the sidetone level part of the base station “Operation Section”).
Example System Configurations Single Base Station Audiocom (T elex) System The audio out RCA jack on the back of this unit is used for the public address system. The unused Audiocom channel must be terminated to avoid loud feedback if audio channel two was switched to by the beltpack.
