Set-up
Prior to use, the XO-1 beltpacks and the XO-AP base station need to have their battery packs fully charged. Refer to the charging instructions of this section for instructions on charging.
1.Place the XO-AP base station in the area of use.
2.Attached the two antenna cables from the antenna to the XO-AP. The cable marked, “Receive” connects to the receive jack on the XO-AP. The cable marked, “Transmit” connects to the transmit jack on the XO-AP. The front label of the XO-AP indicates the RF (Radio Frequency) connector designation.

3.Aim the directional panel antenna at the area of beltpack use. For example, in Figure 5-2, the XO-AP is used in a football application where the XO-AP is located in the press box and the antenna is pointed toward the near side coach’s box.
NOTE: Make sure the antenna’s path to the area of coverage has clear line-of-sight.
