QUICK START
The following exercise demonstrates how to set up a simple
configuration of wired and wireless devices in a CellCom 10 system.
The user should have some familiarity with how CellCom 10 operates
before attempting this exercise. If not please read through the manual
first, and then do the exercise.
To complete the exercise the following equipment will be needed.The
goal is to establish communication between these devices:
• A CellCom 10 system including two wireless beltpacks, an antenna,
and a base station.
• A 4-wire audio source, such as an Eclipse matrix.
• A wired beltpack, such as a Clear-Com 501 or 601 beltpack.
Specifically, this quick-start exercise shows how to:
• Wire the CellCom 10 base station to a party-line beltpack, a 4-wire
audio source, and a CellCom 10 antenna.
• Assign labels to two CellCom10 wireless beltpacks.
• From the CellCom 10 base station, create a group containing the
wired and wireless devices.
• Initiate calls between members of the group.
Note: For a quick overview of the CellCom 10 programming
menus, refer to Appendix 2.
CONNECTING THE BASE STATION
To connect the CellCom base station to a party-line beltpack
1. Make sure the CellCom base station is powered off.
2. Connect an XLR cable from the “PL CH-A” connector on the rear of
the CellCom base station to a wired party-line beltpack, such as an
RS-601. See Figure 2-1 for an illustration.
Note: Externally powered party-line equipment, CellCom splitters,
and CellCom active antennas should always be connected
and powered up before powering the CellCom base station.
To Connect the CellCom Base Station to a 4-wire matrix port
1. Connect a CAT-5 cable from the CellCom base station’s leftmost
4-wire audio port (labeled “4-Wire/Eclipse Ports”) to an external
4-wire audio source, such as an Eclipse matrix port. See Figure 2-1
for an illustration (shielded CAT-5 is recommended).
This exercise demonstrates
how to set up a simple
configuration.
In this exercise establish
communication between a
group of wired and wireless
devices.
