Clear-Com Tempest 900 - Pairing with a Basestation

42 Tempest®900 4-Channel Wireless Intercom System
Pairing with a BaseStaon
Pair BeltStaon to BaseStaon:
Conrm that the BaseStaon is powered ON and in Operaonal Mode (not
in Menu Mode) and that the BeltStaon is powered OFF. Conrm that the
BaseStaon’s Network Number and Lockout Key are adjusted as needed. See the
secon on Set Network Number and Lockout Key.
Plug one end of the pairing cable into the BaseStaon and the other end into the
BeltStaon.
The pairing cable is a standard 3.5mm
(1/8 in.) male to male stereo patch cord.
Turn the BeltStaon power ON by pressing and holding the BeltStaon Power ON/OFF buon for two seconds. The pairing
process will begin automacally. Watch for the message “Pairing Complete” to appear briey on the BeltStaon display.
The BeltStaon will automacally re-inialize.
Adjust BeltStaon Slot
The BaseStaon Slot Assignment only aects the order that the BaseStaon Operaonal screen displays the BeltStaon
informaon when the BaseStaon is in the Stac display mode. If the BaseStaon is rounely used as a communicaon port
or for monitoring BeltStaons, it may be more convenient to always have the same user appear in the same posion on the
BaseStaon display. This is a personal preference seng.
In the BaseStaon “Tech Menu,” choose Stac or Dynamic from the “Display Slot Assignments” screen. Dynamic, the default,
will work without any adjustment, and always displays BeltStaons in alpha-numeric order by name.
Stac will be the preferred choice for users who are using only one BaseStaon and want to ensure that a BeltStaon that is
logged in will always appear in the same locaon (slot) on the BaseStaon display. When selecng Stac slot assignments,
you must also enter the Tech Menu for each BeltStaon and assign each BeltStaon a dierent slot (1 – 5).
The BaseStaon default is for Dynamic Slot Assignment. This means that when BeltStaons log in to a base, the informaon
about the BeltStaons is displayed on the BaseStaon LCD screen in alpha-numeric order according to the name of
the BeltStaon. For example, “Dir” appears before “Light1,” which appears before “StgMgr,” but they can change slots
depending on which BeltStaons are turned ON. If the default sengs are used, nothing is necessary. If the BaseStaon
is located in an equipment room and is not rounely used as a communicaon port or to manage BeltStaons, nothing is
necessary. Adjusng so that each BeltStaon always appears in the same posion of the BaseStaon display is a two step
process:
1. Advance to the BaseStaon’s “Display Slot Assignment” secon of the “Tech Menu” and select Stac.
2. In each BeltStaon, advance to the “Base Slot” secon of the “Tech Menu” and adjust each BeltStaon to a dierent
slot (1 – 5). The BeltStaon designated to slot 1 will always appear on the far le of the BaseStaon display, with slot 2
appearing in the next posion to the right, and so on.
4-channel and 2-channel BeltStaons may be paired to either model
BaseStaon(s); When a 4-channel BeltStaon is paired with a 2-channel
BaseStaon operaon of that BeltStaon is limited to channels A/B and can
only hear one channel at a me.
