5. Select a channel for each of the base stations. (See page 15 for the channel selection procedure.) After you
select the channel, press the RESET SWITCH on the base station circuit boards to “read” the selection into
the microprocessor.

7. Check the operation of each of the systems. Note that the alert tone for the Lane 1 system headsets is a
single repeating “beep” while the alert tone for the Lane 2 system headsets is a double repeating “beep.”
Cross-Lane System Installation
The Cross-Lane system provides communication for facilities that have two menu signs. It consists of two base
stations that are connected to a Cross-Lane Module. A Cross-Lane Module is a five-pole switch that allows the
two systems to be separated during hours of peak activity. Refer to the installation instructions (Document
Number 78-6912-0487) included with the Cross Lane Module (P/N78-6911-4396-6). These instructions are also
located in the Wireless Intercom Service Manual.
A Cross-Lane Module can be useful if the manager wishes to operate each lane with a separate crew during
periods of peak activity. This is accomplished by turning the Cross-Lane switch
OFF
. By pressing the
T1
button on any headset, the operator can communicate with a customer at menu sign 1. By pressing the
T2
button
on any headset, another operator can communicate with a customer at menu sign 2. When the Cross-Lane
Module is
OFF
, the operator will only hear the vehicle detector alert from the menu sign with which he or she
last talked.
During periods of lower activity, the Cross-Lane Module is turned
ON
, allowing one headset order-taker to
operate both lanes. When the cross-lane module is turned
ON
, the operator will always hear vehicle detector
alerts from both menu signs. A single alert indicates a vehicle is at menu sign 1 while a double alert indicates a
vehicle is at menu sign 2.
