To change the preferred base station

A BT On-Air USB unit can be registered on up to 4 bases.

If a BT On-Air USB unit is registered to more than one base station, you can select which base your unit will use if more than one bases are in range (overlapping coverage).

When more than one bases are registered, a new Preferred Base button appears on the BT On-Air Monitor window:

1

➜Click Preferred Base to change the preferred base station.

1

2

➜Select your preferred base or select No preferred Base if none of the base have overlapping coverage or if you do not want to set a preferred base.

➜Click OK to confirm and come back to the On-Air Monitor window.

The status column of the BT On-Air Monitor now shows if you have selected a preferred base

Note

If you have selected No preferred Base, your BT On-Air USB unit connects to the first base it detects. This is the default option.

If you have a Preferred Base selected, your BT On-Air USB unit will not be able to log-on to another base. You will have to select another Preferred Base or select the No preferred Base option to log-on to another base.
