with a Tele Radio AB waist belt or neck strap, for better
support and improved ergonomics while operating the
transmitter.
Adjust the belt around the waist, then hook the transmitter into
the waist belt straps.
Figure 1: Working position with a Tele Radio AB transmitter while using the Tele Radio AB waist
belt
NOTE! Always hold the transmitter with the control panel towards you. You must be able to read
any text on the control panel and understand the symbols on it.
Web Configuration Application
Transmitters can be customized using a Web Configuration App.
The Web Configuration App is a user-friendly tool for simple customization and configuration of
T24, T26, transmitters. It has an intuitive user interface and allows the trained technician to
perform all sorts of customization. e.g. design the faceplate, add expansion boards, define and
connect the I/O’s to the appropriate plug pin…
The Web Configuration App is a web-based tool accessible online for those with a customer
account. Contact your representative for more information.
All information on how to use the Web Configuration App can be found in the application itself or
in the corresponding documentation (PinConfig).
