The SWATCOM MULTICOM system relies
on one unit being the MASTER (ID 00),
only one handset can be the MASTER,
if more than one unit is designated as
the MASTER the system will not operate
properly. Each handset will also have its
own unique designated number, which
can be changed if necessary. No handset
can have the same number, if they do
then one of the handsets will not work.

are turned on, the system is now ready
to be used.
The headsets can be attached either before or
