2-Wire Wiring Schemes
Wiring schemes vary, and it is important to ensure that the cables are wired correctly for proper system operati on. When
Tempest is confi gured for a parti cular manufacturer’s system, Tempest routes the signal to internal circuitry that conforms
to the requirements of that system. The 3-pin XLR connectors on the back of the Tempest BaseStati on can have very
diff erent characteristi cs depending on the setti ng of the slide switch, as can be seen in the table below.

Note for 2-Wire RTS Users: RTS TW (2-Wire) systems support two intercom channels on a single XLR cable. When connecti ng
an RTS TW system, only one cable is required for two intercom channels. When set to RTS mode, both of the 3-PIN XLR
connectors (2 male and 2 female) for channels A&B are paralleled together. RTS intercom channel 1 is placed on Tempest
intercom channel A, and RTS channel 2 is placed on channel B. Note for 2-Wire Clear-Com and Balanced (Audiocom) Users:
For Clear-Com and Balanced 2-Wire intercoms, use the A and B male or female 3-pin (XLR-3M/F) connectors on the rear panel
to connect up to two intercom channels. The male and female connectors for each channel are loop-through connecti ons
and are the same point electrically. Each channel of a Clear-Com or Balanced 2-Wire system requires one separate cable for
connecti on to one Tempest channel.
