Channel Button: Press the Channel button to set
intercom to one of four secure channels or the paging
channel. The default channel for the intercom is the
paging channel where all four channel lights are lit.
An intercom on a channel can only hear an intercom
on the same channel or on the paging channel.
Conference Mode: Conference
Mode allows multiple intercoms to
participate in a conversation
compared to Normal Mode in which
only two intercoms can communicate.
All intercoms must be set to the same channel or the
paging channel to be in Conference Mode. To place
intercoms in Conference Mode set Dipswitch #1 on
block 2 to the UP position.
Battery: When batteries are low intercom will emit
two beeps every ten minutes. Replace with
C batteries (not provided).

C size Lithium batteries.
Operation & Features
Talk Button
Talk Button: To talk, hold
down the Talk button. All
intercoms in the network that
are on the same channel will
receive the signal. Release the Talk button when
done talking and within 10-15 seconds press and hold
the Talk button of a different intercom to make a
secure channel between the two. Once the channel is
made the other intercoms in the network cannot hear
the conversation.
Volume: Hold down the Talk button and press the
Channel button repeatedly to cycle through the
volume levels.
The Intercom has up to a 1000' range and allows
multiple simultaneous conversations, using a
900 Mhz secure digital radio link. The intercoms form
an exclusive network and respond only to other
intercoms in the network.

Troubleshooting
Intercom does not function.
It is normal for LEDs to go out if intercom has been
inactive for 5 minutes. The LEDs should light after a
button is pressed or a signal is received.
Check batteries in Intercom.
Ensure intercom is connected to a network.
See Programming Intercom.
Ensure that intercoms are on the same channel. See
Operation & Features.
Intercom is not getting expected transmission
range.
Keep Intercom away from trees, metal objects and
electrical wiring.
Intercom beeps every ten minutes.
The battery is low in the intercom. Replace with
C batteries.

Press and hold both buttons. Two beeps will be heard
and the channel lights will begin to cycle. Continue to
hold until a third beep is heard (about 15 seconds).
Ensure other intercoms are not activated during this
time. Intercoms in the network that are on will signal
during the clearing process. Once memory is clear
the intercom can be programmed to a new network.
Static and feedback is heard in intercom.
The intercoms are too close to each other. A cordless
phone, cell phone, or other radio device can also
cause static.
