Controls, Jacks, and LED
The LiberatorMAX Fire Headset is used in conjunction
with an MS-900MAX Base Unit and up to 6 additional
headsets to form a wireless intercom network that also
allows Radio Transmit headsets to operate a vehicle-
mounted mobile radio remotely.
Only the Radio Transmit headsets allow the user to
talk over the mobile radio, however all headsets on the
channel will hear received audio from the mobile radio
and from all other headsets on the channel.
The headsets and Base Unit can operate on any one
of 8 available channels – all headsets must be on the
same channel for network intercom operation.
A Portable Radio can be connected to the Headset
using a PRAC Cable. The Portable Radio will connect
exclusively to that headset – other headsets in the
group will not hear the received audio or be able to
transmit over the portable radio.
Instructions for using the LiberatorMAX headsets
with the MS-900MAX Radio Interface Base Unit can
be found in the MS-900MAX User Guide.

LiberatorMAX Headset
Operating Instructions
1) Power-Up
Turn Volume Control clock-wise to turn on headset
1 to 3 audible beeps will indicate level of battery charge when
headset is powered up (1 beep = low, 3 beeps = high)
Headset will be on channel last used
Headset will search for an existing “network” to join, or create
its own network if one isn’t found
LED Status Indicator will start Yellow, then turn Green
Headset will begin sending/receiving audio within 6 seconds
There will be a verbal (spoken) indication of the current channel
Volume Control will adjust received audio volume
As other headsets on same channel are turned on, they will join
the network if they are on the same channel
2) Mobile Radio PTT / Mic Mute / Channel Change Button
On CSB-900MAX and CSB-902MAX headsets, the lower
button on the right-hand cup functions as a Push-To-Talk
switch for the mobile radio connected to the Base unit. Press
to transmit, release when done.
On the CSB-901MAX and CSB-905MAX headsets, the lower
button on the right-hand cup functions as a Microphone Muting
switch: press once to mute the mic, there will be two audible
beeps; press again to un-mute the mic, there will be two beeps
at a different pitch.
3) Channel Change – All Fire Wireless Headsets
To change channels, hold down both lower buttons on the left-
hand and right-hand cups for 5 seconds. The headset will
increment by one channel and give a verbal announcement of
the current channel. The buttons can then be released. If the
buttons are held down, the headset will advance the channel
once each second.
All headsets must be on the same channel to remain
connected as a network (unless the operator is intending to
join another network).
NOTE: If using a Portable Radio with the headset, it must be
turned off or disconnected when changing channels, or it will
be inadvertently keyed to transmit.

USERS GUIDE
LiberatorMAX Headset
Operating Instructions
7) Operating Notes
Once a network is established, all users will be able to hear and
speak to each other within the operating range
If one user moves out of range, the other users will not receive
a notification, they simply will not be able to speak to or hear
that user – if that user then moves back into range,
communications with the network will automatically resume
If a group of users (all on the same channel) splits into 2 groups
by some of them moving out of range, they will form a new
network, still on the same channel – if they then move back into
range they will meld back into the original network
Two networks can exist simultaneously without interference if
they are on separate channels, but they will not be able to
communicate with each other
4) Portable Radio Use
A Portable Radio can be attached to the headset with a
suitable Setcom PRAC cable (determine by radio type)
With Portable Radio OFF, attach adaptor to accessory port on
radio, then plug smaller round connector into the jack on the
Left Cup, then turn radio ON
The radio’s volume control will set the received audio volume
in the headset
To transmit over the radio, press/hold the PTT button on the
Left Cup, release it when transmission is completed
5) “Sleep” Mode
After 15 minutes of no movement the headset will enter sleep
mode to conserve battery power – the LED will turn off
When the headset is again moved or picked up it will
automatically wake up and resume normal operation
If the headset is not going to be used for a long period of time, it
is recommended to turn it off using the Volume Control knob –
turn fully counter-clockwise until a click is heard
6) Charging
To charge the headset, plug a power source into the Charging
Jack on the Left Cup – the power source should provide 5 to 14
VDC, it can be a “wall-wart” power supply, or a cable providing
12V vehicle power (plug type is 5.5mm with a 2.1mm pin)
While charging, the LED will be Orange, the headset can be
used while charging
A full charge from low battery condition takes approximately 6
hours

WARNINGS/CAUTIONS
Headset Volume
Before wearing the headset, turn the volume down, then put on the headset and slowly turn the volume up to reach a
comfortable level that provides clear communications.
To prevent possible hearing damage DO NOT operate the headset at full volume for extended periods, the louder a
sound is, the less time it takes to cause hearing damage.
The headset provides hearing protection by attenuating loud sounds, however it is recommended that you do not turn
up the volume so high that you cannot hear what is around you such as alarms, sirens, or warning signals.
If you experience a warming sensation in either earcup, remove the headset immediately and contact Setcom
customer service.
Rechargeable Battery Information
This headset uses an internal Lithium-Ion Polymer Battery Pack – it is not user-serviceable or user-replaceable.
The battery should not be subjected to temperatures outside these ranges:
Charging Discharging Storage
0 to +45˚C -20 to +60˚C -10 to +35˚C
32 to +113˚F-4to+140˚F 14 to +95˚F
The headset should not be left in an environment where high temperatures may be encountered (dashboard of a
vehicle, near a heat source such as an engine compartment, heating duct, etc.).
Care should be taken to not expose the headset to excessive shock, or force that could crush or shatter the ear cups,
as this may puncture or rupture the battery.
