6. Set Home/Away status.
6a. Follow the prompt on your top (master) CU to set your system’s Home/Away status.
Important:
No RF transmission will occur until the Home/Away status is selected. Failure to set this status
properly may result in RF interference.
The Home/Away setting aids customers with hopping pattern
coordination between RTs and Radio Packs. Based on this
setting, all of the RTs on the system will be assigned specific
hopping patterns by the Control Unit (CU). It is very important
to set this status correctly. Hopping pattern coordination
prevents interference between X-Systems.
During startup, the configuration file (CCF) will begin loading
while the Home/Away prompt is displayed on the top CU. A
progress bar shows the load process on the bottom CU. Once
the Home/Away prompt is cleared, the CCF load progress can
be seen on both CUs.
6b. Wait until the CUs display the “CCF Loaded” message along with a configuration file summary. (The bottom CU will
take about 30 seconds longer than the top.) When the CCF load is complete, the home screen will display on the
front of the CU(s) and you can proceed.
6c. Open X-Ware and allow its Home screen to load.
7. Set up press box unit and null system.
Note:
The procedures in this step should be performed by at least two people.
7a. Once the Sideline Cart is configured,
set up and connect power to the Press Box Unit.
Have someone stay with
the Sideline Cart to assist in the verification of dry pairs during this step.
7b.
Connect dry pair panel
in the Press Box to the corresponding ports on the rear of the WIM in the Press Box
Unit.
7c.
Connect wired BeltPacks and cables
for each coach. Make sure all TALK buttons are off.
7d.
Auto-null
all of the lines from the sideline using X-Ware’s Conference view (under the System Settings menu). If
there is noticeable echo on some channels of the wireless components, confirm that all TALK buttons are off and
repeat the auto-null step.
