FreeSpeak Edge | User Guide
Note: If you are adding more than one port, you can enter values in the Characters to Replace and
Seed value fields to automatically generate labels. For example if you enter Label 0 in the
Label field, and then enter 1 in the Characters to replace and Seed value fields, this will
automatically generate labels called Label 1, Label 2, Label 3 up to the specified number of
labels.

Note: The ports that are allocated to beltpacks can be thought of as a pool of ports that can be used
by any FreeSpeak beltpack. You only need to allocate for the number of beltpacks you intend
to have connected to the system at any one time. No allocation for spare beltpacks is needed.
When at least one beltpack has been allocated to the card, you will see a Beltpacks button
appears under Hardware. Click this button to configure beltpacks in the usual way.
(Registration and Roles).
A Transceivers button also appears under Hardware.
5.7 Beltpack roaming between E-IPA-HX cards
FreeSpeak beltpacks (FS II and FS Edge) cannot roam reliably between E-IPA cards. If they do
you will lose audio. Therefore, if you have more than one E-IPA card, you must configure IP
transceivers of the same type on one card. This eliminates the possibility of beltpacks roaming
between cards.
When using a single E-IPA card, FS II and FS Edge transceivers can co-exist on the same card
(up to 64 transceivers on one card).
Transceivers can be allocated to particular E-IPA cards in the EHX software. See image below.
