Telex TR-800 Distance Between base station and beltpack, Operating System Near Obstructions

Page 22

Keep the distance between the base station and the beltpacks as short as possible. The greater the distance, the weaker the signal. Make sure the “signal paths” between the base station and beltpacks are unobstructed. You should be able to visibly locate the base station antennas at all times for best perfor- mance.

Attempting to operate the wireless intercom system through or around walls, ceilings, metal objects, etc. will reduce system range and performance.

Operating System Near Obstructions

DO NOT - mount the base station 1/2-wave antennas on, or next to metal, such as beams, walls with metal studs, equip- ment racks, etc. This also applies to the antennas when assem- bled directly to the Base Station. This will “detune” the antennas which can result in noise or loss of RF signal at the Base Station, see Figure 17.
