Zaxcom QRX235 IFB Option Menu

Remote Power Mode
This menu is only available when IFB Mode is set to TX (transmit)
The remote power mode menu allows for the RF power setting of the transmitters to be adjusted.
The transmitters have three selectable power settings:
•
NORMAL - The transmitters are at full power.
•
WAKE - If a transmitter is set to REMOTE STANDBY it will power up to a non-transmitting low power mode
that will use approximately 25% of the power of normal operations. A wake command will bring that
transmitter to full power.
To use wake mode set the transmitters BOOT UP MODE to REMOTE STANDBY. Then when the transmitter
powers up, it will remain in standby mode until it receives the wake command to bring it to full power. Once
the transmitter is awoken the only way for it to go back into standby mode is by power cycling the
transmitter.
•
LOW 2 - Low 2 disables the RF power amplifier, RF board and microphone pre-amp on the transmitter. In
LOW 2 mode the transmitter will save approximately 50% of the power of normal operations. A transmitter
can be put into or taken out of LOW 2 as often as desired when selected in this menu.
Settings
0: POWER=ON - Normal operation - the transmitter will be fully powered ON.
1: POWER=ON - Normal operation (same as 0) filler to prevent accidental power setting adjustment.
2: POWER=ON - Normal operation (same as 0) filler to prevent accidental power setting adjustment.
3: POWER=ON - Normal operation (same as 0) filler to prevent accidental power setting adjustment.
4: POWER=ON
- Normal operation (same as 0) filler to prevent accidental power setting adjustment.
5: POWER=WAKE - Selected to wake a transmitter to full power mode from remote standby mode.
6: POWER=LOW2 - Selected to put a transmitter into and out of low power mode. A transmitter can come
in and out of LOW 2 mode as needed. When in LOW 2 mode “LOW 2” will be displayed on the transmitter’s
home screen. Please note LOW 2 will not disable recording but audio will be muted since the preamp is
disabled. Once the transmitter’s power is set to Low 2 the QRX235 can be powered down. Then when the
QRX235 is powered up all transmitters being controlled will automatically come up to full power since the
QRX235 will always boot up to the 0 Power setting. Please note if the transmitter is not in range of the
ZaxNet signal, the power setting command will have to be repeated once the transmitter comes back into
range.
