13 Powering your system
13.1 Powering the FreeSpeak II™ Base
Use two power supplies according to preference:
• Mains power lead (internal power converter)
• DC connector. External wallwart power lead.
Use one power connector or both to guard against one failing.
13.2 Powering wireless beltpacks
Beltpacks are powered by Li-ion battery. Drop-in battery charger supplied.
Battery power status is viewed from:
• Base Station menu screens
• Beltpack menu screens
• Core Configuration Manager (CCM).
For more information, see: Battery Charger Quick Start Guide (PDF
available from Clear-Com, LLC website).
Note: You can also power beltpacks using standard AA batteries for convenience. In
situations where Li-ion batteries are prohibited, you can also use nickel metal
hydride batteries (NiMH) but will need to set battery type so battery life
diagnostics are accurate.

The Partyline power operates over a pair of ports
To enable power to the Partyline go to Ports, 2-wire in the CCM or in Base
