CHAPTER 2
Initial Setup and Configuration
Initial BP-6000 Setup
The BP-6000 has a mode-sensing setup built into it. Mode-sensing detects the system configuration and
then sets the beltpack to run in this mode.
The mode of the BP-6000 needs to be correctly reconfigured through mode-sensing setup. The mode can
be verified by the sequence of flashing LEDs upon power up or through the program menu.
The factory setting for the BP-6000 is Audiocom mode. For more information on the different modes of
operation, see “System Configuration” on page 13.
IMPORTANT:
Mode-sensing setup can only be done using a hot plug of the UBP into an already
powered network. Mode sensing is not reliable when done in conjunction with
enabling power to an entire network using a switched power supply or master
station. The voltage ramping characteristics of a switched power supply during
power up do not allow the BP-6000 to reliably determine the mode of the network
IMPORTANT:
When using BP-6000 and BP4000/5000 beltpacks in Clear-Com mode, the first BP-
4000/5000 in the network must be manually set to Clear-Com mode.
IMPORTANT:
By default, the beltpack is configured for Audiocom mode.The headset microphone
is auto-sensing, which means it automatically determines if an Electret or Dynamic
headset is attached to the unit.
