QUICK START
The following exercise demonstrates how to set up a simple
configuration of wired and wireless devices in a CellCom system. The
user should have some familiarity with how CellCom operates before
attempting this exercise. If not please read through the manual first,
and then do the exercise.
To complete the exercise the following equipment will be needed.The
goal is to establish communication between these devices:
• A CellCom system including two wireless beltpacks, an antenna, and
a basestation.
• A 4-wire audio source, such as an Eclipse matrix.
• A wired beltpack, such as a Clear-Com 501 or 601 beltpack.
Specifically, this quick-start exercise shows how to:
• Wire the CellCom basestation to a party-line beltpack, a 4-wire audio
source, and a CellCom antenna.
• Assign labels to two CellCom beltpacks.
• From the CellCom basestation, create a group containing the wired
and wireless devices.
• Initiate calls between members of the group.
Note: For a quick overview of the CellCom programming menus,
refer to Appendix 2.
CONNECTING THE BASESTATION
To connect the CellCom basestation to a party-line beltpack
1. Make sure the CellCom basestation is powered off.
2. Connect an XLR cable from the “PL CH-A” connector on the rear of
the CellCom basestation to a wired party-line beltpack, such as an
RS-601 (connection 1). See Figure 2-1 for an illustration.
Note: Externally powered party-line equipment, CellCom splitters,
and CellCom active antennas should always be connected
and powered up before powering the CellCom basestation.
To Connect the CellCom Basestation to a 4-wire matrix port
1. Connect a CAT-5 cable from the CellCom basestation’s leftmost
4-wire audio port (labeled “4-Wire/Eclipse Ports”) to an external
4-wire audio source, such as an Eclipse matrix port (connection 2).
See Figure 2-1 for an illustration (shielded CAT-5 is recommended).
This exercise demonstrates
how to set up a simple
configuration.
In this exercise establish
communication between a
group of wired and wireless
devices.
