Programming the Beltpack Operating Mode
Summary: Pages 10 and 11 give instructions
on programming the BP-700 operating mode
via the beltpack buttons.
Programming the
BP-700 Beltpack
Operating Mode
The BP-700 has several functions that
can be programmed from its control
panel via the four pushbuttons:
1. Dynamic or electret microphone.
2. Pushbutton modes (each
individually): Push-to-talk (PTT),
Push-to-mute, Push-to-enable.
3. Button action (each individually):
Momentary, alternate action,
click-latch.
4. Return to default configuration.
Several advanced functions can only
be programmed via the optional QPK-1
Programming kit. They include:
1. Default configuration.
2. Pushbutton disable (no action taken).
3. Pushbutton assignment/
reassignment
("A" = "B", "B" = "A", etc.).
4. Pushbutton duplication
("A" or "B" = "A", ALL = "B", etc.).
See page 12 for programming the
beltpack mode via the QPK-1 kit.
Programming the Operating
Mode via the Pushbuttons.
Push and hold both "A" and "D"
pushbuttons for more than 7
seconds to enter the programming
mode: (Level 1)
• The beltpack transmitter will be
inhibited during programming.
• All four LED's will rapidly flash
three times to indicate that the
unit is now in programming mode,
then all LED's will go off.
• If no button is pushed for 10
seconds, the LED's will flash three
times once again.
• This is repeated every 10 seconds
until a button is pushed or 60
seconds has elapsed.
• If no button is pushed within 60
seconds, the beltpack will exit the
programming mode.
• The programming mode can be
exited at any time by again holding
down "A" and "D" for more than 7
seconds.
Simultaneously push both "A" and
"B" for more than 2 seconds to enter
microphone-type programming
mode. (Level 2)
• "A" and "B" LED's will go on
continuously.
• Push "C" for electret mic, "C" LED goes
on continuously, "D" LED will go off.
• Push "D" for dynamic mic, "D" LED
goes on continuously, "C" LED will
go off.
• Simultaneously push both "A" and
"B" for more than 2 seconds to exit
mic type programming.
• All 4 LED's will flash three times to
indicate that you are back in the top
level programming mode. (Level 1)
• If no button is pushed for 10
seconds, the LED's will flash three
times once again.
• This is repeated every 10 seconds
until a button is pushed or 60
seconds has elapsed.
• If no button is pushed within 60
seconds, the beltpack will exit the
programming mode.
Simultaneously push both "A" and
"C" for more than two seconds to
enter button mode programming:
(Level 2)
• "A" and "C" will flash twice, then all
LED's will go off for 2 seconds.
• Each of the four LED's will then
display the current mode for the
associated pushbutton, as described
below.
• Push "A" once for the PTT mode,
the "A" LED goes on continuously.
• Push "A" again for the push-to-
mute (PTM) mode, "A" LED will flash
continuously at a fast rate
(noticeably faster that the rate of
the triple flash when entering the
programming mode).
• Push "A" a third time for the push-
to-enable (PTE) mode, "A" LED will
flash continuously at a slow rate
(noticeably slower than the triple
flash rate).
• "B", "C" and "D" are programmed in
same manner.
• All four LED's indicate the current
mode of the associated pushbutton
by being on continuously, fast
flashing or slow flashing, as
programmed.
• Simultaneously push and hold "A"
and "C" for more than 2 seconds to
exit button action programming.
• All 4 LED's will flash three times to
indicate that you are back in the
top level programming mode.
(Level 1)
• If no button is pushed for 10
seconds, the LED's will flash three
times once again.
• This is repeated every 10 seconds
until a button is pushed or 60
seconds has elapsed.
• If no button is pushed within 60
seconds, the beltpack will exit the
programming mode.
Simultaneously push "B" and "C" for
more than two seconds to enter the
button action programming mode.
(Level 2)
• "B" and "C" flash twice, then all
LED's will go off for 2 seconds.
• Each of the four LED's will then
display the current mode for the
associated pushbutton, as such:
• Push "A" once for the momentary
mode, the "A" LED will go on
continuously.
• Push "A" again for the alternate
action mode, the "A" LED will
flash continuously at a fast rate.
• Push "A" a third time for the
click-latch mode, the "A" LED
will flash continuously at a slow
rate.
