Setting Beltpack ID
Several functions require the beltpack to know which base and
channel it is associated with.
1.
Auto Power Setting: The beltpack reduces its TX power
when close to the base. Beltpack transmit power must be set
to Auto.
2.
Portable Station Deselect: The base can disable the TALK
button of a beltpack. This shuts off the mic in PTT mode
and turns off the transmitter in PT TR mode.
3.
First-On-Latch-Out: This locks a base receive channel so
only one beltpack can transmit on the frequency at a time. A
beltpack user attempting to talk on top of another beltpack
on the same frequency hears a double beep in their headset.
A beltpack tries to establish its ID automatically when its group/
channel changes. The base must be on for this to work.
To check or set beltpack ID manually , do the following:
1.
Press and hold UP for two (2) seconds.

The LCD displays ID Base# - Receiver#.
For example: ID 1-3 means Base 1, Receiver 3.
If the LCD displays ID--- or does not match the base and
receiver, the beltpack is assigned to, Auto Power, Portable
Station Deselect, and First-On-Latch Out will not work
correctly.

cables becomes base #2, etc.
