HME RT7000 REMOTE TRANSCEIVER Installation Guide

HME RT7000 REMOTE TRANSCEIVER

The RT7000 Remote Transceiver facilitates Base Station to Headset communication. It uses a wired connection to the Base Station but is wireless for Headset communication. Up to four RT7000s can be connected to the Base Station for additional coverage.

TOOLS/EQUIPMENT REQUIRED

• Drill and drill bit set
• Screwdriver (Phillips #2), tape measure, pencil/maker
• Fish stick, cable ties, safety glasses, ladder

INSTALLATION, SETUP, AND OPERATION

1. Survey the premises to determine a good location to mount the RT7000 (see Remote Transceiver RT7000 Notes on the next page).

2. Once a good location is selected, route the Ethernet cable from the Base Station to the RT7000 location.

3. Loosely mount the Remote Transceiver in an optimal location (until range tested with a roving headset using the Installation Wizard via the Base Station in step 5.

4. onnect the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port on the rear of the RT7000 (see Fig. 2) and the other end to one of the available ports on the Base Station (see Fig. 4 and Table 1).

5. At the Base Station LOG IN to the system, go to SYSTEM, then the ADVANCED tab and select “Installation” from the drop-down menu. Tap the “Start Installation Wizard” button. This opens the Installation Wizard as shown in Fig. 3.

6. Follow the Transceiver Installation steps that follow. Once you have used a headset in Reception Location Mode to walk the premises to determine the mounting location is good, move
   on to the next step. If the mounting location is not a good one, move the Remote Transceiver to another location and repeat steps 1 through 6, until a good location is found.

7.  Drill two holes 6.625 inches (16.83 cm) apart along a horizontal axis on the wall (avoid electrical or plumbing obstructions).

8. Install the provided hardware but do not tighten, leave a gap (~ ¹/8th inch (3.2 mm)) between the screw heads and wall.

9. Align the RT7000 mounting holes with the two screws (Fig. 2).

10. Mount the RT7000 over the screw heads until flush against the wall, then slide it down onto the screws to secure it in place and tighten hardware.

11.  The other end of the Ethernet cable is connected to the Base Station (see Fig. 4 and the Table 1 for connections).

12. The Base Station provides power to the RT7000. So when connected, the center LED in the circle on the front of the RT7000 turns on solid green.

13. The peripheral LED around the circle initially flashes as the RT7000 completes a scan of the environment. Once the scan is finished, this peripheral LED also turns solid green. Note: This LED also flashes blue when the firmware is updating.

14.  The RT7000 is now operational. The Base Station HOME screen also provides a color-coded visual status (see “Transceivers” status in Fig. 5).

Tap “Transceivers” on the HOME screen for more details (see Fig. 6).

Remote Transceiver (RT7000) Notes

• Mount the transceiver high in a central location to headset usage.
•  Maximize line of sight between the transceiver and headsets in an area free from obstructions and equipment/materials that can interfere with signal propagation. These include walls, large metal ap-pliances, hoods, and backsplashes, etc.
• Mount the transceiver vertically on a wall in the upright position (see arrow on Transceiver rear). Do NOT mount horizontally such as on a ceiling, this will reduce the transceiver’s range.
• Signal propagation is strongest directly in front of the Transceiver and then to the sides.
• The RT7000 uses an Ethernet (Cat5 or Cat6) cable. Do not exceed 1000’ (304 m).
• Large premises may require more than one Trans-ceiver. Up to four Transceivers are supported by one Base Station.
• Once connected to the Base Station, the LED in the middle of the circle on the transceiver front illuminates to indicate it is turned on. One of the outer LEDs (numbered 1 to around the circle also turns on (depending on which port the 3 4 Transceiver is connected to on Fig. 7 the Base Station, see Fig. 7). This outer LED will initially flash as the Transceiver scans for available channels before turning solid green once a channel is found (on the Base Station HOME screen, the “Transceivers” indicator is yellow while scanning before turning green).
