Tempest®900 2-Channel Wireless Intercom System
4- 2-Wire/4-Wire Select (SEL) Button
The 2-Wire/4-Wire Select (SEL) button sets the wired intercom mode for each of the two intercom channels. When a channel
is selected with the CHAN SEL button, pressing the 2-Wire/4-Wire Select (SEL) button changes the selected intercom mode
between 2-Wire, 4-Wire, or no connection.
5- 2-Wire/4-Wire LEDs
The four 2-Wire/4-Wire LEDs indicate the currently selected intercom mode for each of the two intercom channels. If either
a 2-Wire or 4-Wire connection has been enabled for a particular intercom channel, the corresponding 2-Wire or 4-Wire
LED indicator will be illuminated. When no intercom has been enabled, the corresponding 2-Wire or 4-Wire LED indicators
will be OFF.
6- IN Level Control
In Menu Mode, from the Intercom Levels screen, the IN control adjusts the incoming level of the currently selected wired
intercom channel, from the hardwired intercom system to the Tempest BaseStation. If 2-Wire is selected, the IN Level
control adjusts the incoming level of the 2-Wire signal. If 4-Wire is selected, the IN Level control adjusts the incoming level
of the 4-Wire signal. If neither 2-Wire nor 4-Wire is selected, the IN Level control is inactive. In addition to the intercom IN
levels, the IN control is used to adjust Aux IN levels.
7- OUT Level Control
In Menu Mode, from the Intercom Levels screen, the OUT level control adjusts the outgoing level of the currently selected
wired intercom channel going to the hardwired intercom system from the Tempest BaseStation. If 2-Wire is selected, the
OUT Level control adjusts the outgoing level of the 2-Wire signal. If 4-Wire is selected, the OUT Level control adjusts the
outgoing level of the 4-Wire signal. If neither 2-Wire nor 4-Wire is selected, the OUT Level control is inactive. In addition
to the intercom OUT levels, the OUT control is used to adjust Aux OUT levels.
8- USB Connector
The USB connector is used to update the Tempest BaseStation firmware and is not used in normal operation.
9- Beltpack Program Connector
The Beltpack Program connector is used to pair the BaseStation with BeltStations. To pair the BaseStation with a particular
BeltStation, ensure that the BaseStation is powered ON and in Operational Mode (not in Menu Mode). Ensure that the
BeltStation is powered OFF. Plug one end of the pairing cable into the BaseStation, and plug the other end of the pairing
cable into the BeltStation. Turn the BeltStation power ON by pressing and holding the BeltStation Power ON/OFF switch for
two seconds. The pairing process happens automatically and the message “Pairing Complete” will appear on the BeltStation
LCD for approximately three seconds when done.
10- Power ON/OFF Switch
The ON/OFF switch is used to turn the BaseStation power (AC or DC) ON and OFF.
