Note: When you are using V-Pack, the volume controls on the beltpack do not
function. They are replaced by the slider buttons in V-Pack.
WORKING OFFLINE WITH V-PACK
You can also create beltpack setups while a beltpack is “offline”—or not
connected—to the computer. Then, when you connect the beltpack to the
computer and go online, you can upload the entire custom setup to the beltpack
at one time.
The advantage of creating custom setups while offline to the computer is that
you can experiment with a setup until you are sure it is complete, and then
upload the entire setup to the beltpack. The disadvantage of creating custom
setups offline is that the changes do not take effect in real time. For complete
instructions on creating a custom setup offline, see “Using V-Pack Offline” later
in this chapter.
CUSTOMIZING YOUR BELTPACK OPTIONS
UNDERSTANDING THE DEFAULT OPTIONS
Your beltpack is preprogrammed at the factory with a “default” setup that will
meet the needs of most beltpack users. Clear-Com programs your beltpack with
the options that are most frequently used by our customers so that when you
receive your beltpack you can begin operating it immediately. No advanced setup
or programming is required.
However, if you wish to customize the beltpack to better meet the needs of your
operating environment, the V-Pack software offers many powerful tools to help
you do so.
UNDERSTANDING MODES
A mode is a specific set of operating features for a beltpack. Each beltpack’s
memory holds four complete modes. You select and activate a mode either from
the beltpack itself or from the V-Pack software.
When you receive your beltpack, each of the four modes is preprogrammed with
the Clear-Com default options. The default options are those features most
frequently used by Clear-Com customers.
Appendix A lists each mode’s operating features. You can change these options
with the V-Pack software.

The beltpack must be
connected to a Clear-Com
channel with proper power
and terminations.
The beltpack is “offline”
when it is either not
connected physically to the
computer or not connected
electronically so that data
cannot transfer between the
beltpack and the computer.
