1 Description
The RPA01 Roving PA Radio Microphone Transmitter is a multi-channel UHF handheld microphone, which
is designed to work with the Radio Microphone Receiver installed within the ASL Station Announcement
Points, either SAP01 or SAP02, and within the RRM02 Remote Radio Microphone Receiver. It is normally
used for making remote announcements to station platforms.
The unit incorporates an internal aerial and microphone, and has ten selectable channels. The unit features
a LCD display to show the selected channel number and the battery level. This Radio Microphone has
excellent microphone acoustics, and its front facing microphone gives low susceptibility to acoustic
feedback. It also generates a non-standard pilot tone frequency that gates the ASL RMR01/RMR02 Radio
Microphone Receivers, to prevent announcements from non-authorised transmitters from being heard.
This lightweight and strong Radio Microphone has large PTT and channel selection buttons, and a
symmetrical design, which provides the operator with ergonomic comfort, and easy operation, even while
wearing gloves. Strength is ensured by a robust plastic enclosure, and a protective rubber edge strip,
which also provides the unit with impact resistance and good water ingress protection.
The unit uses a built-in Lithium Polymer rechargeable battery. This is an advanced battery technology
which provides low weight and long run times. A fully charged battery generally lasts for up to 7 hours of
continuous talk time, which translates to several days of normal operational use. The RCS01 4-bay RPA
Transmitter Charging Station is available, and can be ordered separately if required.
The Radio Microphone Transmitter is supplied with belt clip with lanyard fixing as standard. The standard
lanyard is suitable for rail and general transport use, having breakaway links to ensure that the user is not
injured if the microphone is trapped in moving equipment. The belt clip can be removed by replacing the
standard rear plate with a rear plate without belt clip, which is also supplied with the RPA01.
Refer to the SAP product manual [Table 1, page 18] for details of the SAP and the Radio Microphone
Receiver.
