Getting to Know Your IFB Transmitter
It is a 100 mW RF transmitter designed to be used with the Zaxcom Digital wireless system. The IFB100 uses a
digital spread spectrum signal to send and receive IFB audio, timecode and remote control signals. By using spread
spectrum technology, the IFB is immune to interference. IFB audio has a range of approximately 150 feet,
timecode and remote control commands have a range of approximately 500 feet.
In locations where multiple IFB100 units are used, you can set each TRX9xx or ZFR100 to a specific IFB100 unit.
The IFB100 contains a simple menu driven interface with minimal physical keys and connectors.
