Rolloff
RF On?
Turn Rf off to preserve battery power while setting other
transmitter functions. Turn it back on to begin trans-
mitting.. Use the and arrow buttons to toggle and
MENU/SEL to save.
TxPower
Allows the transmitteroutput power to be set as 25 or 50
mW. Use the and arrow buttons to scroll and MENU/
SEL to save.
IR&Key
The operations below depend on the compatibility mode
selected and the receiver used.
SendFreq
Sync to send frequency to another device via the IR Port.
SendAll
Sync to send all available settings to another device via
the IR port, including the performer’s name, (or whatever
name the user chooses for the DBu), frequency, mixer
settings and limiter settings.
NOTE: SendAll does not work accurately with
multi-channel receivers.
GetFrq
Sync to receive (get) frequency from the receiver via the
IR port.
GetAll
Sync to receive (get) all available settings from another
device via the IR port, including the performer’s name, (or
whatever name the user chooses for the DBu), frequency,
and talkback state.
Key Type
The DBu receives an encryption via the IR port from a
key generating receiver. Begin by selecting a key type
in the receiver and generating a new key (key type is
labeled KEY POLICY in the DSQD receiver). Set
the matching KEY TYPE in the DBu and transfer the key
from the receiver (SYNC KEY) to the DBu via the IR ports.
A confirmation message will display on the receiver
display (IR SYNC OK) if the transfer is successful. The
transmitted audio will then be encrypted and can only
be listened to if the receiver has the matching encryption
key.
The DBu has four options for encryption keys:
•
Universal
: This is the most convenient and basic
option available, and the default setting on all Lec-
trosonics D2 digital units. All encryption-capable
Lectrosonics transmitters and receivers contain the
Universal key. The key does not have to be gener-
ated in the DCR822. Simply set the Lectrosonics
encryption-capable transmitters and receivers to
Universal key type, and the encryption is in place.
This allows for convenient encryption amongst
multiple transmitters and receivers, but is not as
secure as creating a unique key.
•
Shared
: This key policy is designed for sports cov-
erage and similar applications where a unique key
provides enhanced security, but multiple transmit-
ters and receivers can share the same key. Once
generated by the receiver, the key can be trans-
ferred via IR to transmitters or additional receivers.
•
Standard
: This key policy provides excellent se-
curity, second only to the Volatile key policy. Once
a unique key is created in the receiver, it can be
transferred via IR only to transmitters, but not to
other receivers. The receiver tracks the number of
times the key is transferred. Once a Standard key
has been transferred 256 times, an alert will indi-
cate that a new key must be created.
•
Volatile
: This is the most robust key policy avail-
able. After a unique key is created, it can be
transferred only to transmitters, not other receivers.
If a transmitter is powered off, it must have the key
sent to it again from the receiver. If the receiver is
powered off, a new key must be generated and
sent to the transmitters. In encryption terms, this is
the “one time use” key management policy.
