Installation Manual
This manual is aimed at a technical level reader who is expected to be familiar with all safety precautions relevant to the use of electrical and electronic equipment. This system operates with 48v DC power supply. To maintain warranty only Quail Digital approved parts should be used. Do not attempt to power the Quail Digital Pro7 Headset System using Power over Ethernet (PoE) adaptors, as they may cause damage to the Base Station.

System Overview Quail Digital Pro7 system is a DECT wireless headset system using multiple Bases Stations (Bases) to cover large areas with up to 30 wireless headsets. Once the headsets are registered to the Base/s they all listen and up to 6 users talk simultaneously. The system allows the configuration of a large DECT wireless network, connected and powered via Cat5 cable giving the flexibility to position Bases for wide area, multi-room, multi floor coverage.
Q-P7BS - Pro7 Base Station The Q-P7BS Base is a DECT wireless transceiver (license free) which is powered by an external 48 Volt DC universal power supply. The Base can be networked with multiple Bases (20 max) using standard Cat5 network cable and RJ45 connectors.

Q-P7HS - Pro7 Headset Volume - slide up/down Battery - to remove the battery, hold the mic boom firmly in your hand and slide the ear pad and the battery towards the mic boom tip Push to Talk switch The headset can be worn on either ear. The headset is available with a headband or neckband. Volume: There are 5 volume settings. Use the toggle at the rear of the headset to adjust volume by pressing upwards for each step. Speech: The headset can be used in 2 speech modes, TalkLock, and PTT (push to talk).
Q-P7CH - Pro7 Charger The system comes with an 8 port charger and storage unit. This should be located within the transmit range of the Base so that the headsets log on to the network automatically when they’re uplifted from the charger rack. If the charger is located out of range of the Base, log on will be delayed until the headsets are carried into range. Note that headsets out of range of the Base will be de-registered if the registration button is pressed.
System Installation Before permanently installing the system, it is advisable to carry out a site survey by temporarily placing the Base/s in different locations to optimize coverage. You should also identify power sockets and cable routes for Cat5 if you intend to use multiple Bases. Important Note: Power to the Bases should use a constant 24hr power outlet. If one or more mains circuit is switched off it may affect the operation of the entire Base network.
If both front panel LEDS on any Base are flashing orange it means there’s insufficient power to that Base to boot up. Check cable, connector and power supply. If each of these is OK it indicates an additional power source is required. If one or more additional power sources are added the Base Status LEDs will change from flashing orange to solid orange indicating synchronisation with the network. The LED will then turn solid green when synchronised.

Registering the headsets Before using the system each headset needs to be registered to the network. Thereafter, any new or additional headset being added also has to be registered. The Pro7 Headset System can register up to 30 headsets. When registering one or more new headsets, follow this procedure 1 Make sure the new headset(s) has been in the charger and is fully charged. 2. Make sure all the headsets in use on the system are in range of of all the Bases on the network.
Keypad installation The Pro7 Headset System is available with a remote messaging facility using RF transmission keypads. The keypad is battery operated; typically lasting in the region of 6 - 9 months. If batteries are supplied with the unit, remove the battery housing cover and remove the battery saver leaf from the contact terminal to begin using the keypad. There is no on/off switch - the keypads are powered all the time. Install the keypad in the desired location.

Creating Audio Files The audio files must be *.WAV files encoded in mono u-law at 16 kHz. This is easily achieved with freeware software like MediaHuman Audio Converter, Fre:AC, Audacity or SoX. Naming the Audio Files Two different files can be used to play a complete audio message, the file naming scheme for those files is as follows: Keypad ID files: id-xxx-#.wav Where xxx is the keypad address/ID setting from 0 to 255 and # is the keypad type setting from 0 to 3 (i.e.
a If you want to reinsert the micro-SDCard in a different base, is it mandatory to reset the whole system to have message playing capabilities. a The network will not boot up if there is more than 1 micro-SDCard inserted in the system.
System Test Once all bases are installed, reset the system to synchronise the bases. Then register the headsets. 1. All headsets are registered and audio is ok Collect all registered headsets and one by one, press the ‘Page’ button while talking to confirm that you can hear your own voice. Repeat this step on all registered headsets. 2. Check coverage Take a headset and place it on TalkLock. Whilst talking on the headsets, walk around the entire area you wish to cover noting any blind spots.
