TR-240 Operation
This section discusses the operation and features of the TR-240
beltpack. This section outlines the basic operation, hardware
interfaces, and setup of the beltpack.
Basic Operation Description
The TR-240 full-duplex beltpack offers a very comprehensive,
user friendly, and extremely versatile set of features to be custom
configured to a user's specific requirements.
The TR-240 can be uniquely configured in one of three operating
modes which allow it to work in conjunction with a BTR-240
base station or with other beltpacks in the absence of a base.
In wireless mode, a BTR-240 base station provides the wireless
coverage for the communication between TR-240 beltpacks. In
wired mode, the beltpacks communicate with each other via
Ethernet cable and do not require the use of a base station. In
master wireless mode, the beltpack is now a mobile access point
and provides the wireless coverage for communication between
other TR-240s in wireless mode. Further details of these modes
are discussed later in this section.
Powering the Beltpack
To turn on the beltpack, rotate the On/Off & Volume Control
knob clockwise and move the knob pointer away from the “OFF”
position. The switch will “click” and the Battery Light will
immediately illuminate.
To turn the beltpack off, simply rotate the knob pointer counter
clockwise until it “clicks” into the “OFF” position and the Battery
Light will turn off.
NOTE: Ensure that the battery packs is fully charged prior to
use. Refer to the Battery Charging Instructions in
Section 4.
Local Headset Configuration
The local headset on the beltpack is configurable with the
following adjustable settings:
•
Channel Select buttons
•
Talk button
•
Volume knob
•
Microphone gain adjustment
•
Sidetone level adjustment
Channel Select Buttons
Press the <1> button to activate the audio path associated with
only Intercom 1. Press the < 2 > button to activate the audio path
associated with only Intercom 2. Press the <1> and < 2 > buttons
simultaneously to select the audio path from both intercom
channels. The green LEDs above to the channel select buttons
will illuminate when the intercom channel is active.
Talk Button
The <TALK> button is used to enable and disable the headset
microphone path. When the microphone path is enabled, the
green LEDs above the active audio channel(s) will be solid.
When the microphone path is disabled, the green LEDs above the
active audio channel(s) will blink. By default, the audio path from
the attached headset is enabled after the unit has booted.
A beltpack is full-duplex, simultaneous talk and listen, when the
microphone path is enabled and the channel LED(s) are solid. A
beltpack is half-duplex, listen only, when the microphone path is
disabled and the channel LED(s) are blinking.
The TR-240 has two talk modes that dictate how the microphone
path is enabled when the <TALK> button is pressed. These
modes are Push-to-Latch mode and Momentary-Only mode.
The talk mode can be toggled by pressing the following key
sequence after the beltpack has booted.
Key Sequence: <1> + <TALK> + < 2 >
Hold until the voice prompt indicates
“Push-to-Latch” or “Momentary” (approx. 5
seconds).
In Push-to-Latch mode (default), if the <TALK> button is tapped
quickly (less than ½ second), the microphone path will enable and
“latch”, or remain enabled, after the button is released. The
microphone path is disabled by quickly pressing the <TALK>
button again. If the <TALK> button is pressed and held down
(longer than ½ second), the microphone path will be enabled
“momentarily” while the button is held, and will be disabled
when the <TALK> button is released.
