A NOTE ABOUT TERMINOLOGY

In this manual, the term “source” refers to a device—beltpack,
intercom station, or a variety of other devices—that sends audio to a
beltpack. It represents a “listen” path to a station. The term
“destination” refers to a device to which audio is sent. It represents a
“talk” path from a beltpack.

The names of these sources and destinations appear in the display of
a beltpack and are called “labels”. A label is a 5-character
alphanumeric name that identifies a source, destination, or control
function accessed by a beltpack. These “labels” are programmed from
the FreeSpeak basestation.

USING THE BASESTATION’S PROGRAM-
MING MENUS

A FreeSpeak system is programmed using the programming menus
that appear on the basestation’s front-panel display screen. The user
navigates through the menus to select programming options for the
system.

Rotating the setup/enter knob allows the user to scroll through the
selections on the screen. As the user scrolls through the menu items
are highlighted on the screen. To select an item as a new programming
option, press the setup/enter knob in, as if it were a pushbutton, when
the desired item is highlighted on the screen.

SAVING CHANGES

The changes are saved and applied automatically when changes are
made to the unit’s programming. Five seconds after the last time the
setup/enter knob was turned or pressed, the front-panel display
flashes to indicate that the changes are being saved and applied.

BASESTATION PASSWORD

With the FreeSpeak V2.0 release the basestation requires a password
to be input before it will operate once the firmware is upgraded. The
password requires the basestation system ID which is found in the
system information screen (see “System INFO (“INFO”)” on page 5-27.

The basestation password will normally be supplied with the V2.0 CD
but if it is not available the user should contact Clear-Com for a
password.

After the basestation is upgraded it will display the following message
when the first map is downloaded.

“Source” refers to a

device—beltpack, intercom

station, or a variety of other

devices—from which audio is

received.

“Destination” refers to a

device to which audio is sent.

There are two ways to save

changes.
