OPERATING THE
CELLCOM
BASESTATION
INTRODUCTION
The CellCom basestation provides all of the intelligence and signal
routing for the CellCom digital wireless intercom system. The
basestation is effectively a full-duplex digital matrix communications
system, with virtual “ports” for the wireless beltpacks rather than
physical ports.
In its memory, the basestation contains all of the labels and
communications paths assigned to each CEL-BP beltpack, and this
information is sent to the beltpacks via the CEL-TA
transceiver/antennas as soon as they are switched on and recognized
by the base.
The basestation also functions as the interface between wired and
wireless communication devices. The two party-line intercom
connectors, four 4-Wire connectors, and program
input/stage-announce output each have their own full-duplex time slot.
They can be labeled, added to communication groups, and assigned to
beltpacks as desired. Additionally the program input or one of the four
4-Wire connections can be assigned as IFB sources on the
basestation.
