Hum d ty / heat sources
• Never expose the equipment to rain or a high level of humi ity. For this reason o not install it in the imme iate
vicinity of swimming pools, showers, amp basement rooms or other areas with unusually high atmospheric humi ity.
• Never place objects containing liqui (e.g. vases or rinking glasses) on the equipment. Liqui s in the equipment
coul cause a short circuit.
• Do not install near any heat sources such as ra iators, heat registers, stoves or other evice (inclu ing amplifiers)
that pro uce heat.
Connect on
• The equipment must be connecte to a mains socket that has an earth contact.
• Protect the power cor by not walking or an ing on it or pinching, this is consi ere for plugs especially where they
exit from the evice.
• Lay all connection cables so that they o not present a trip hazar .

6. How to operate the Cockp t case
The Unite CC cockpit case is use for charging the rechargeable batteries insi e the bo ypack transmitters an
receivers as well as transmitting the pairing information from the transmitter to the receivers. The Unite CC-24P has
6 charging units, each with 4 charging compartments so that a maximum of 24 bo ypack transmitters or receivers can
be charge simultaneously. The Unite CC-36P has 9 charging units each with 4 charging compartments so that a
maximum of 36 charging compartments are available.
Warn ng: When the Cockpit case is in use, o not mount the cover on the case. There is a risk of overheating an fire.
6.1 Ma ns connect on
• Connect the IEC connector of the power cable to the mains connection of the Cockpit case. Connect the power plug
to a power outlet.
• Switch on the Cockpit case via the on-o switch.
• When not in use, switch o the evice an isconnect the power plug from the power socket. Make sure that you o
not pull on the cable, but on the power plug.
6.2 Establ sh pa r ng
Transmitters an receivers must be paire so that they can communicate with each other. For a successful
pairing the channel name, group ID an au io encryption key are require . The require au io encryption
key is generate in the Unite CC cockpit case or via the Unite Manager software an uring the pairing
process it is first store on the cockpit case an then it is transferre to the transmitter an receiver in the
charging compartments. In this context, please also note the position of the switch on the cockpit case. The
switch must be set to the “Pair & Charge” position so that the pairing information can be transmitte from
the Unite CC to the transmitters an receivers.
There are three ifferent ways to pair the Unite transmitters with receivers:
1. Via an in ivi ual charger (refer to the following escription or system manual online).
2. Using the Unite Manager Software on a PC (refer to the Unite Manager Software manual or system
manual online).
3. Via ynamic channel search (refer to system manual online, chapter “Special functions”.

Unite CC – Cockpit Case

Use w th group ID 256
By efault, the transmitters an receivers are supplie with the group ID 256.
A factory-set au io encryption key, which cannot be change , is use for the factory-set group ID 256. The
au io encryption key ensures a itional security against unauthorise listening. You can use the group ID
256 for a system w thout pairing.
Receivers with the group ID 256 can fin an connect to all transmitters with the group ID 256. This is one
via the ynamic channel search on the receiver.
Attent on: When using several transmitters (e.g. Unite AP4 an several Unite TP) with the group ID 256 at the
same time, make sure that the in ivi ual channel names iffer from each other! Otherwise this can cause
connection problems with the receivers!
Use w th nd v dual group ID
If several receivers are to be ivi e into ifferent groups, for each group an in ivi ual group ID can be
assigne . A separate au io encryption key is generate for an in ivi ual group ID in or er to ensure
a itional security against unauthorise listening. This au io encryption key is generate uring the
pairing process, store in the charger an transmitte from the charger to the transmitter an receiver,
along with the channel name an group ID.
Since the au io encryption key is not transmitte via ra io, it cannot be rea out. This gives the system
maximum security against unauthorise listening.
The receivers can only connect to a transmitter with which they have been paire . If the group ID is
subsequently set manually on the receiver, no connection can be establishe because the au io
encryption key oes not match. Please note that the transmitter to which the receivers are to be
connecte must be efine as the master.

In or er to perform a pairing with an in ivi ual charger, procee as escribe in the following:
1. Set the esire group ID on the transmitter you want to use for pairing. Refer also to chapter 5.2 of the “Unite TP –
Bo ypack Transmitter”.
2. Insert only one transm tter into the charging compartment of the charger. If multiple transmitters are inserte into
the charging compartments, the pairing will not start an the status in icator on the charger will isplay an
error (see table). Alternatively, you can connect the transmitter to the USB port, type C on the charger via a USB
cable.
3. Insert one or more receivers into the charging compartments of the charger to be paire with the transmitter. You
can also connect another receiver to the charger using the USB port. Remove all receivers that shoul not be
paire . If there is no receiver in the charging compartments, the pairing information is store in the charger. This is
use for later pairing without connecting the transmitter to the charger.
4. In or er to transfer the pairing information from the transmitter to the receivers in the slots an to the charger itself
for future pairing, press an hol the “Pair/Reset” button on the charger for more than 2 secon s. The status
in icator  will flash yellow for several secon s if the pairing is successful. The status in icator will then remain
yellow because the pairing information is now also store in the charger.
5. If you want to pair other receivers, remove the transmitter an all receivers from the charger, set the switch 
to “Pair & Charge” an insert the unpaire receivers into the charger. The pairing information will be store
imme iately in the unpaire receivers. The status in icator on the receiver will flash yellow rapi ly while this
happens.
6. Set the switch  back to “Charge only” when the pairing is finishe , so that the charger can only be use for
recharging.
7. Switch on the transmitter an one receiver to check that they have both been paire successfully.
After a few secon s, the status in icator on the receiver shoul light up green an the isplay shoul show the
channel name of the transmitter.
8. If you want to clear the store pairing information, hol own the “Pair/Reset” button  for more than five secon s.
The status in icator will then remain permanently green.

6.4 Automat c F rmware Update
• By using the Unite Cockpit Case you can uploa firmware up ates to Unite transmitters/receivers.
• With the current factory setting the Unite Cockpit Case will automatically up ate the firmware of the Unite
transmitters/receivers uring the f rst charging process. Just insert the transmitters/receivers into the charging
compartments.
During the firmware up ate the status in icator light of the Unite transmitters/receivers will illuminate re . This
process will take approx. 5 minutes. Shoul the process take longer than 10 minutes, turn the Unite Cockpit Case off
an on again. The up ate process will then restart.
Attent on:
Please note that after a successful up ate to a new firmware version, the Unite transmitters/receivers are no longer
compatible with ol er firmware versions.
6.5 Cond t on ng the battery
• In or er to achieve the maximum capacity of the battery, we recommen ischarging the transmitters/receivers
completely to carry out a complete charging cycle afterwar s.
• This also increases the accuracy of the battery in icator on the isplay of the Unite transmitters/receivers.
6.6 Serv ce mode
• For maximum operational reliability, the Unite Cockpit Case features a so-calle service mo e.
• If the evice is isconnecte from the mains within 45 secon s after being switche on (e.g. by acci ental
switching off), the evice will boot in a safety mo e an check itself.
• If this service mo e is activate automatically (after booting unsuccessfully), the system will return to its usual
operating mo e after approx. 3 minutes.
