THEORY OF OPERATION
The primary T4 transmitter / coordinator is hardwired to the CS-3 control unit and broadcasts cue information to the
receivers via a wireless mesh network in the 2.4 GHz range. Additional, T4 repeaters can be added to the network to
increase coverage. Repeaters can be either wireless or hardwired with CAT5E cable terminated in an EtherCon
connector. Voltage is supplied to the T4 via the CAT5E cable for cable runs under 150 ft, otherwise local 5-7 VDC is
required.
The T4 Coordinator and T4R Repeater unit incorporates a sensitive RF transceiver utilizing a peer-to-peer protocol in
2.4 GHz range for operation in global markets. This innovative mesh protocol offers added network stability through
self-healing, self-discovery, and dense network operation.
STANDARD DESIGNS AND INSTALLATIONS
Standard Wireless Repeater Installation:
•
T4 Coordinator connects directly to the Control Station via CAT5E cable and powered locally with 5-7 VDC
power supply.
•
T4 Coordinator connects wireless to R4 Receivers and T4R Repeaters that are powered locally with 5-7
VDC power supplies.
•
R4 receivers and T4R repeaters receive the data and pass it on to other units as needed.
•
Power indicator on bottom of unit will light red when T4 or T4R are powered on.
•
Data indicator on bottom of wired T4 Coordinator will light green when connected to the network and will
flash when data is being sent.
Standard Wired & Wireless Repeater Installation:
•
T4 Coordinator connects directly to the Control Station via CAT5E cable and powered locally with 5-7 VDC
power supply.
•
T4 Coordinator connects to first T4R repeater via CAT5E cable (less than 150ft)
•
Additional T4R Repeaters connect to the hardwired T4R repeater and are powered locally with 5-7 VDC
power supplies.
•
R4 receivers and T4R repeaters receive the data and pass it on to other units as needed.
