3. OPERATION
The WB-200 series intercom system are designed to allow maximum easy communications
operation between the different control areas in music or theatre live performances, television,
cinema, conference halls, and whatever broad events where multiple and fast communications are
required, by means of its simultaneous listening-speaking operation system.
The Dual Channel Manager Beltpack WBP-212 unit was designed for intensive use in portable
applications. An unbreakable plastic belt clip enables easy and secure suitability. Call signalling is
Triple, visual, audible and with a vibration for improving adaptability. The unit can be configured for
dynamic or electret microphones enabling the use of different types of headsets and hands-free
earpieces in the market.
This beltpack is designed for operation under the new Altair WBS-202 dual channel base station
in order to obtain full operation functionalities.
A maximum number of 1 WBP-212 unit per Radio 1 and another unit per Radio 2 is allowed.
New performances are incorporated to ease the use in stress conditions: Headset connector by
standard size XLR-4 for a higher durability and compatibility, long life Li-Ion battery, secondary battery
supply for emergency uncharged main batteries, keyboard lock to prevent inadvertent operations,
bigger illuminated switch buttons, and many others.
Internal preset configurations, battery remaining time, coverage and another information is
provided by a helpfull colour screen. General keyboard operation is enabled by direct keystrokes in
both upper and front panels.
Other general specifications are maintained over the classic WBP-200/202 beltpacks: internal
dual diversity antennas, high listening level, number of beltpacks per base station, coverage, etc. This
new beltpacks can be combined with the classic size WBP-200/202 on the same installation.
In order to begin to use its new beltpack ALTAIR WBP-212, turn on the base station on which the
beltpack is registered (if it is not registered to any base, goes to the registry section).
Once turn on the base station, push and hold the on/off switch of the beltpack for two
seconds. All the beltpack leds light on and last a little while it will sound the buzzer (if
buzzer is turn on) and will vibrate (if the vibrator is turn on), indicating that it is operative.
If the base on which it is registered finds within its range, the led of the ON/OFF switch will
begin to blink, the range indicator placed at the upper left corner of the OLED display will
begin to blink and the audio will be opened. At this moment you can begin to use your beltpack
ALTAIR WBP-212.
If the beltpack ALTAIR WBP-212 remains turned on during a period of ten minutes without
connection to the base station (the base station is turned off, outside range, or the beltpack is not
registered to any base station), it will be turned off automatically to conserve batteries.
3.1 HEADSET CONNECTION
A TINY Q-G and a standard XLR-4 connectors allows to connect a headset to the beltpack. The
headset impedance must be of 200 Ω or higher (up to 2 KΩ) and the microphone may be dynamic
or electret type.
For the electret microphone type it is necessary to enable the phantom power of 9 VDC with a
key combination or with a MENU selection.
The next list shows the TINY Q-G and the XLR-4 pins correspondence:
