BASE STATION SETUP
Locate the two base station antennas, as well as the AC power adapter and power cord received with the base
station. Connect them to the base station as described below.
Antenna and Power Setups
Step 1. Connect the two enclosed
antennas to the antenna
connectorson the top and right side ofthe base
station (displayed to the right).
Position the antennas at right angles in opposite
directions. The illustration below shows one
possible arrangement. Turn the sleeve on each of
the antenna connectors clockwise to tighten the
antennas securely in position.
Step 2. Note which of the following applies to you.
If using the DX100 with AC power Plug the connector at the end of the AC power supply
cable into the power connector on top of the base station. Turn the sleeve on the cable connector
clockwise to secure it to the base station. Plug the large female connector at one end of the AC
power cord into the power supply. Plug the other end of the AC power cord into an electrical outlet.

If using the DX100 with battery power Press in and up on the battery cover release latches
to lift the cover and open the battery compartment.
Insert six AA batteries into the battery sled (as illustrated inside the sled), and install the sled in
the battery compartment as displayed below. An HME BAT850 Rechargeable NiMH Battery may
be used instead.
Close the battery compartment by pressing its cover down until both latches snap in place.
NOTE: Simultaneously pressing down on the cover next to both of the latches will assure proper
closing.
If using the DX100 with an external DC power source We recommend that you purchase a
12V DC power cord adapter for a standard vehicle power port, then purchase and attach a
“Switchcraft 760K” DC power plug. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to connect the
external DC power source to the power connector on top of the DX100. Any power supply used
with the DX100 should be rated at least 12VDC, 500mA.
NOTE: Having a fully charged (or new) battery when operating the DX100 with AC or external DC power can
prevent interruption of communication during a power outage. This allows the base station to seamlessly
switch to battery power.
If only one base station will be used, skip pages 8 –11 and turn to page 12.
If more than one base station will be used, continue with all instructions on the following pages.
9
Multiple Base Stations
This mode of operation can be used to expand the number of users communicating through multiple HME Base
Stations operating in the same portion of the 2.4 GHz to 2.48 GHz frequency band.
Primary and Secondary Base Station Settings
One base station must be designated as “primary” and all others must be designated as “secondary”. You can have only
one primary and up to 3 secondary base stations. Secondary base stations are assigned numbers 1, 2, or 3.
Label the base stations as “Primary”, “1”, “2” and “3”.
Start with every base station and Beltpac/Headset power off.
Set DIP Switches
Open each secondary base station and set
DIP switch #4 to the ON position as follows.
Using a T9 torque wrench, remove the
six screws from the front panel of each
secondary base station. Lift the front
panel carefully and set it face down.
Be careful not to pull any wires loose.
Locate the DIP switch on the transceiver circuit board inside the front panel of each secondary base station.
Set DIP switch #4 to the ON position. Leave #s 1 and 3 in the OFF position.
Replace the front panel and screws on the secondary base stations.
The primary base station DIP switch #4 should be in the OFF position.

Base Station Initialization
For multiple HME Base Stations to operate without interference, they must be properly initialized before
performing any other setups. After initializing each base station, register each Beltpacs/Headsets to that base
according to the procedures on pages 12 - 15.
NOTE: Base stations must be set up for split-band operation prior to initialization. If a different frequency
band needs to be selected to avoid interference, the primary base station must be set to this frequency
band before base station initialization is started.
Initialize each base station and register all Beltpacs/Headsets as follows:
Primary Base Station
Turn the primary base station power on. Register any Beltpacs/Headsets to be used with the primary base
station (See pages 12 - 15). Turn each Beltpac/Headset off after registering it.
Secondary Base Stations
Step 1. Power-on one secondary base station.
The REGISTRATION STATUS display will show a double bar,
indicating the secondary base station is ready to be initialized.
Step 2. Press the REG button on the primary base station.
The REGISTRATION STATUS display will show a small “o”.
Step 3. To assign a number to a secondary base station and initialize it, press
the REG button on the secondarybase. Pressing the button repeatedly
cycles through the numbers 1, 2, and 3. When the desired number
appears, release the buttonand wait. While the secondary base
initializes, the REGISTRATION STATUS display will continue
showing the selected number. When secondary base station initialization
is finished, the display will show one bar indicating that the secondary
has initialized to the primary.
Step 4. Press the REG button on the primary base station.
The REGISTRATION STATUS display will go blank.
Step 5. Register Beltpacs/Headsets to the secondary (See pages 12 - 15).
Step 6. After registration, turn off the secondary base and all Beltpacs/Headsets
will be registered.
Step 7. Repeat the above steps for each remaining secondary base station. Use a
different number for each. Only the primary base and the secondary base to
be initialized should have power during initialization. All other equipment
should be turned off.
Step 8. After all secondary bases are initialized and Beltpacs/Headsets are registered, power-up allbase stations.

Step 9. Press the RESET button on the primary base, and let it recover.
Step 10. Turn on the primary Beltpacs/ Headsets, and let them link.
Step 11. Press the RESET button on each secondary base station (one at a time), and
let it initialize to the primary base (indicated by a single bar).
Step 12. Turn on the Beltpacs/Headsets associated with the secondary base stations. Work with one group at a time
until they have all linked, and then do the next group. At this point all base stations and Beltpacs/Headsets
should be powered-up, linked and ready for use.
Step 13. Now proceed with normal system configuration, setting functions and levels as required.
Step 14. If it becomes necessary to replace a secondary base station, initialize the new secondary with the same
number as the replaced secondary. After initialization, you will have to register any Beltpacs/Headsets to the
new secondary.
Step 15. If it becomes necessary to replace a primary base station, follow the preceding instructions completely.
Before initialization of the secondary base stations, clear the previous secondary initialization as follows.
For each secondary, press the CLR/BND button and the
RESET button simultaneously. Release the RESET button,
but continue pressing the CLR/BND until the clear
code “c” (lower case) appears on the
REGISTRATION STATUS display.
Any Beltpacs/Headsets associated with the old primary
base station will have to be registered to the new primary,
following secondary base station initialization.
All Beltpacs/Headsets associated with secondary base stations also have to be registered again.
Step 16. If the primary base is shut down or powered off for more than 30 seconds, all secondary bases will drop
their Beltpac/Headset connectionsand begin searching for the primary. If the primary is not found in 30
seconds, the secondary will automatically revert to primary-mode operation and reconnect the Beltpacs/
Headsets.
At this point, the secondary REGISTRATION STATUSdisplays will show
three bars. If the primary is turned back on, it will be necessary to press the
RESET button on all secondary bases to allow them to find and initialize to the
primary again. It’s therefore important to have all base stations connected to the
same AC circuit to prevent this situation when the system is shut down after
hoursand powered up again the next day.
NOTE: You cannot register Beltpacs/Headsets to a base that is set to primary mode, and then switch the base
mode to secondary for initialization. Once in secondary mode, the base cannot recognize the
Beltpacs/Headsets registered during primary operation.
For secondary bases, the Beltpacs/Headsets must always be registered after secondary base
initialization. The primary base must remain active, and the secondary base should display one bar.

BELTPAC / WH220 HEADSET SETUP AND REGISTRATION
The first time you operate the DX100 system, you must register each Beltpac and/or WH220 Headset for use
with a specific base station. The base station will then recognize all registered Beltpacs/ Headsets when their
power is on. They will also recognize other electronic equipment operating on the same frequencies. If a
Beltpac/Headset is added, replaced or repaired later, the new one must be registered (the previous one will
remain in memory). Since only 15 Beltpacs and/or Headsets can be in memory, whether currently in use or not,
all memory must be cleared to remove any old Beltpac/Headset registrations.
