General Operation Operating Concepts and Terms Personal Communication Bubble The FreeMotion 200 works within a small field, or “bubble” of communication surrounding the user. The size of the bubble is determined by the distance between the headset and the adapter. If the headset and adapter are close together, the bubble shrinks to approximately three feet (0.91 meters) in diameter – just large enough to accommodate the range of communication between adapter and headset.
When your headset has remained in Seek Mode for five minutes without finding a link, it will go into Sleep Mode. While in Sleep Mode, the headset uses no power. To awaken your headset from Sleep Mode, depress the PTT button, which activates Seek Mode. Charging the Battery take just three hours (approximate). The charge indicator light will turn green when the headset battery is fully charged.
General Operation Using Your Headset for the First Time tions to the headset. Step Three: Exit Sleep Mode Step One: Attach Adapter Fit adapter to the accessory interface of the portable radio (see your portable radio’s user manual if you need assistance locating the accessory interface). If your adapter has a mounting clip on top, this will fit into a corresponding notch on top of your portable radio. If your adapter does not have a mounting clip, use the set screw (see diagram) to secure it to your radio.
Once you have paired your headset to an adapter, the two devices can establish a communication link. This occurs automatically immediately after pairing, and the link persists as long as the headset remains within the Personal Communication Bubble (see definition above). When your headset moves outside of the bubble, the link is lost, and the unit returns to Seek Mode. While in Seek Mode, the headset is attempting to locate the adapter to which it is paired (see above definition).
General Operation VOX Operation Entering VOX Mode To enter VOX mode, depress the Volume Down button on headset for six seconds. The adapter LED will change from flashing green to flashing orange. Operating in VOX Mode To initiate a transmission in VOX mode, you simply speak into the microphone on the headset. The sound of your voice activates the transmission in the same way depressing the PTT button does in normal mode.
Manually Initiating the Pairing Process To initiate pairing, hold the headset close to the adapter and simultaneously depress the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons on the headset. Hold the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons on headset simultaneously for 10 seconds. The adapter LED will flash solid green indicating a successful pairing. You can repeat this process at any time to break the existing pairing and establish a new pairing with any other adapter.
