Multiple Base Stations
Up to 20 coaches can communicate using the DX300 (five per base station) by interconnecting up to four base stations as
described below . With multiple base stations, one will be considered the main or primary base station, and all others will
be considered secondary base stations .
Initialize Multiple Base Stations
Multiple base stations must be “initialized” according to the following instructions,
so their frequencies will not cause self-interference . After initializing each base
station, register each beltpac and/or all-in-one headset that will be used with that
base station .
1
With the primary base station powered on first, turn on the secondary base
station . The STATUS window will display a double bar .
2
Press the REGISTER button on the primary base station . The STATUS window will show a small “o” .
3
Press the REGISTER button on the secondary base station to assign it a number (1, 2 or 3) .
Wait until the base is initialized (approximately 10 seconds) .
4
When initialization is complete, the STATUS window will show one bar .
5
Press the REGISTER button on the primary base station to clear the STATUS window .
The display will also go blank after timing out .
6
Repeat steps 1 – 5 to initialize up to three secondary base stations .
CAUTION
: If more than two base stations will be used, each secondary base station must be
assigned a different number (1, 2 or 3), or interference will occur
RECOMMENDED
: If only two base stations will be used, set the secondary base station to #2
