66 Operation BTR-80N, TR-80N, TR-82N Receive Frequency The Receive Frequency screen displays the beltpack receiver frequency in MHz. The frequency cannot be changed in factorydefined groups, but can be changed in user-defined groups. To edit the RX frequency (User Groups Only), do the following: 1. Set the unit to the desired user-defined group and channels. See Groups and Channels Instructions. The menu structure in Figure 79 indicates how to get to the receive frequency screen. 2.
BTR-80N, TR-80N, TR-82N Operation 67 Low Battery Alert Tone To change the transmit power setting, do the following: The beltpack sends an audio alert tone to the headset if battery life reaches 10%. The 1 kHz tone is heard for 0.5 seconds, every 30 seconds. The tone is only heard and set at the beltpack. 1. Push SET at the transmit power screen. 2. Using the UP/DOWN arrow buttons, select the power setting. 3. Push SET to place the unit at the indicated setting.
68 Operation BTR-80N, TR-80N, TR-82N Squelch Screen Setting Off 1 2 12 The Squelch screen allows the user to adjust the beltpack squelch level. To adjust the squelch level, do the following: 1. 2. Push SET at the squelch screen. The squelch setting flashes. 3. Press SET to accept the screen setting. If Aux is not Off, the next screen displays Au NN where NN is a two (2) digit number between 0 and 15. This is the volume level setting for the aux input. 4. Press SET.
BTR-80N, TR-80N, TR-82N LEDs Off/On The LED Off/On screen is used to disable all LEDs. This function is useful for users who do not wish to show LEDs in the dark. To turn LEDs on or off, do the following: 1. Push SET at the LED off/on screen. 2. Using the UP/DOWN arrow buttons, select the desired mode. Operation 69 Clear groups are displayed first. They are in group order. You can scroll down through groups using the DOWN button.
70 Operation BTR-80N, TR-80N, TR-82N Factory Reset Setting Beltpack ID Factory Reset sets the beltpack to Group 1A, channel 1 and ERASES any user-defined groups in memory. It sets a unit to factory settings. It also sets the TALK buttons to their default modes. Several functions require the beltpack to know which base and channel it is associated with. To activate factory reset, do the following: > Press and hold MENU + SET + UP + DOWN for two (2) seconds. 1.

BTR-80N, TR-80N, TR-82N 75 Frequency Bands The BTR-80N system operates over the following frequency ranges: FIGURE 81. Band Names Frequencies and US TV Channels Band North America – Base TX: 482-608 MHz – Base RX: 572-608 MHz, US 3 Band: 653-663 MHz F H Europe – Base TX: 482-608 MHz – Base RX: 572-608, 614-722 MHz A The bands, US TV channels, and frequencies are shown in Figure 81. Most bands are 18 MHz wide. Bands F to C are always base transmit bands (beltpack receive bands).
76 BTR-80N, TR-80N, TR-82N Frequency Plan There are 48 groups in a BTR-80N system. The 48 groups are divided up into 36 factory-defined groups and 12 user-defined groups. A group referenced to a base station is comprised of two TX channels and up to 12 RX channels. User-defined groups are blank initially and allow the user to enter their own frequencies. Factory-defined groups are composed of frequencies that cannot be modified by the user.
BTR-80N, TR-80N, TR-82N 77 Troubleshooting PROBLEM SOLUTION DISTORTION - System’s audio quality seems distorted at medium to high input levels Reduce microphone gain by adjusting microphone gain control in software. HISS - System seems to produce a hiss which is undesirable. Check the gain setting on all beltpacks and the base. They may be too low or too high. Check to make sure you are still well within range of the base station. LOW OUTPUT - System produces a low output level.
78 BTR-80N, TR-80N, TR-82N Battery Information Improper battery selection, use, installation, and care are the cause of numerous wireless systems failures. Battery Life TR-80N Alkaline, 11-13 hours typical Nickel-Metal Hybrid, 10-12 hours typical Alkaline Batteries: Alkaline batteries such as Eveready’s ENERGIZER and ENERGIZER INDUSTRIAL provide the most reliable operation in wireless transceivers. TR-82N The use of low cost carbon-zinc batteries is NOT recommended.
