Installation
The following procedure must be adhered to when installing the Xlite paging system. Ensure you have
taken into consideration all of the above information before selecting the location for your transmitter. If in
doubt, contact your dealer for further advice.
1
Remove the cover from the Xlite transmitter unit by undoing the two Pozi head screws located on
the front of the unit (see Diagram 1).
2
Carefully lift off the cover and set aside.
3
The transmitter should be fixed to a flat wall surface using suitable screws fitted through the holes
provided in the chassis plate. Hold the chassis up to the chosen location and with the aid of a
pencil mark the position of the mounting holes.
Warning:
Do not use the chassis plate as a template for drilling the holes into the wall. Hammer drills
vibrating through the chassis may irreparably damage the quartz crystals on the printed circuit boards.
4
Place the Xlite transmitter over the mounting holes and secure the unit with suitable screws.
5
Connect the antenna to the unit via the BNC connector located at the top of the housing. If the
antenna is an external antenna, or an antenna which is separate from the transmitter unit itself,
ensure that the previous criteria covered under the section headed Location of the Hardware,
have been strictly adhered to (also see section headed
Other Antennas).

DATA TERMINAL READY (DTR) OUT
As information passes only from the host equipment to the Xlite transcoder, you will only need to read the
DTR line which, if high at the port pin, shows that power is applied to the Xlite unit. The RTS line will be
high when the transcoder ‘s ready to receive data. The Xlite RTS line should be connected to the host
CTS line to facilitate correct handshaking.
Prior to connecting the data cable, thoroughly check the
system pin connections as shown above.
6
Replace the cover and re-fit the two retaining screws.
7
Power can be provided by way of an AC adapter (part no PTPS12110V, not supplied), or from the
host system (if suitably equipped) with a12-13.8 volts dc supply, @ 300 mA max. With power
applied, the red LED on the front cover of the unit should be lit.
8
The system is now ready to accept calls from the host terminal. When a call is transmitted, the
green LED on the front cover of the unit will light momentarily.
