Telex BTR-1 Serial Number Code, Auto Programming, Software / Channel Map Version

Page 37

Serial Number Code

The base serial number is required to be input to the beltpack to allow communication with that base station. The number, like the encryption code, is composed of four hexidecimal dig- its. This extra security along with the encryption code means there is over 4 billion possible code combinations.

Changing the Serial Number Code

1.Press and hold <MENU> + <UP> buttons at the en- cryption code screen for about 3 seconds. The serial number set screen will appear.

Sm1247

2.Push <SET> to start the first number flashing. Select the desired number with the <UP> <DOWN>/ arrow buttons.

3.Push <SET> to set the code. Now the next code loca- tion will begin flashing.

4.Set the next three code locations in the same manner.

Auto Programming

This function allows the base station to change the beltpack’s frequencies “over-the-air”. Thus whenever the base station's groups / channels are changed the beltpack will automatically fol low. If th e beltpack's fr e quen cies are chan ged "over-the-air", the beltpack will place those frequencies in group 64u, and go to group 64u.

Auto frequency programming, via the base station changing frequencies, only will occur at the beltpack if the following is set: Beltpack already in communication with the base station, beltpack auto programming set to on and beltpack transmit power set to auto.

Enabling / Disabling Auto Programming

1.In any of the beltpack main screens press and hold <UP> the button for 3 seconds. The following screen will appear.

Aut On

2.The auto programming option will also begin flashing.

3.Use the <UP>/<DOWN> arrow buttons to turn the op- tion on or off.

4.Push <SET> to accept the change. The display will now return to the main screen.

Software / Channel Map Version

The software and channel maps of the beltpack may be dis- played from any of the main beltpack screens.

Viewing the Software and Channel Maps Ver-

sion

1.In any of the beltpack main screens press and hold the <DOWN> button for 3 seconds. The following screen containing the software version will appear.

510044

2.As long as the <DOWN> button is pressed the soft- ware version in the beltpack will be displayed.

3.When the button is released the following two channel map screens will be displayed for a second each.

A00 00 1

400 00 1

4.The first screen indicates the receive channel map in the beltpack. The second screen indicates the transmit channel map. The above screens indicate that it is a A4 band beltpack.

5.The screen will now revert back to the main screen.

ClearScan™

ClearScan™ allows the selection of RF clear channels in an area. The beltpack ClearScan™ has three modes:

1.Scan Groups- The beltpack’s receiver scans all the factory defined groups and any user defined groups that have been set. The result is a list of the top 20 groups, ranked in order of the most clear receive chan- nels in that group. The <UP> arrow all the way to the top is the group with the most clear channels.

2.Scan within a Group - The beltpack’s receiver scans all the receive channels within a group. The result is a list of the channels in that group ranked in order of best to worst channels. The <UP> arrow all the way to the top is the channel that is the best.

3.Scan Band – The beltpack’s receiver scans the entire band of frequencies continuously. It starts at the begin- ning of the receive band and checks the frequency ev- ery 100 kHz until the end of the receive band, then starts over. The user must push <SET> to stop the scanning. The 100 kHz step size is as close as is needed because the narrowest receive filters are 230 KHz wide. This is why every 25 KHz is not scanned.
