Rack Mounting  
Rack Mounting Two Base Stations  
Side-by-Side  
The rack mounting brackets come with each RKP-4. These  
brackets may be used to mount a single base station in a 19” wide  
rack or mount two base stations side by side in a rack. Figure 5-1  
shows the three brackets that come with a base station.  
1. Remove the four pan head screws (two on each side)  
closest to the front panel.  
2. Place the double unit side brackets on the sides of the  
base stations you wish closest to the edge of the rack.  
3. Replace the two pan head screws and use a third pan  
head screw (2 supplied with base station) to screw unto  
the upper middle location of the rack mount middle  
bracket.  
4. Place the dual bracket on the other sides of the base sta-  
tions. Make sure the bracket is flipped so the front bend  
is toward the front of the base station. As you face the  
rack, the right base station will have the middle bracket  
front bend high and left base station will have the bend  
low.

Antenna Connection  
The base station is supplied with two (2) antennas.  
One 1/2-wave antenna for Transmit and one 1/2-wave for  
Receive. The antennas have TNC male connectors.  
The frequency range of the antennas should match the receiv-  
er and transmitter of the base station. Match the color code on  
the antenna with the color code on the base station.  
Attach the transmit 1/2-wave antenna to the antenna input  
receptacle labeled “TRAN” on the right side of the rear panel.  
The antenna should be vertically aligned.  
Figure 5-6  
Vertically Polarized Antennas  
Distance between Antennas  
The distance between the base station’s receive and transmit  
antennas is not adjustable when the antennas are connected  
directly on the back of the unit.  
The antennas can be remoted for better signal path. A Telex  
coax assembly with remote antennas may be required. See  
“Accessory and Replacement Parts” section for ordering  
information.  
NOTE: If your base station is to be located in a shielded rack  
mount enclosure or other poor RF location, you must remote  
the 1/2-wave antennas with coax assemblies. See  
“Accessories and Replacement Parts” section for remote  
mounting hardware.  
Figure 5-4  
Attaching Transmit 1/2-Wave Antenna  
Attach the receive 1/2-wave antenna to the antenna input  
receptacle labeled “RCV” on the left side of the rear panel.  
The antenna should be vertically aligned.  
Antenna Placement  
Proper antenna placement probably has the most effect on  
your TELEX Wireless Intercom System’s overall perform-  
ance. The following suggestions will result in optimum per-  
formance.  
Proper placement of the beltpack can be critical. The antennas  
should be in the open. Bending the antennas up and placing  
the beltpack in a pocket, etc., will reduce system distance.  
It is suggested that the unit be worn on the belt or pocket with  
both antenna’s vertical for best operating range and perform-  
ance.  
Figure 5-5  
Attaching Receive 1/2-Wave Antenna  
Antenna Polarization  
The Telex Wireless Intercom System is “Vertically Polarized”.  
This means both the transmitting and receiving antennas should  
operate in the vertical position.

Keep the distance between the base station and the beltpacks Attempting to operate the wireless intercom system through  
as short as possible. The greater the distance, the weaker the or around walls, ceilings, metal objects, etc. will reduce sys-  
signal. Make sure the “signal paths” between the base station tem range and performance.  
and beltpacks are unobstructed. You should be able to visibly  
locate the base station antennas at all times for best perform-  
ance.  
Figure 5-10  
Operating System Near Obstructions  
DO NOT - mount the base station 1/2-wave antennas on, or  
next to metal, such as beams, walls with metal studs, equip-  
ment racks, etc. This also applies to the antennas when assem-  
bled directly to the Base Station. This will “detune” the anten-  
nas which can result in noise or loss of RF signal at the base  
station.  
Keeping the distance from the base station and beltpack as  
Figure 5-8  
short, and unobstructed as possible will produce the most reli-  
Distance Between base station and beltpack  
able performance.  
The base station is supplied with two antennas. This should  
provide satisfactory system performance in most applications.  
System range can be enhanced by remoting the 1/2-wave  
antennas.

RKP-4B Operation  
System Quick Start  
Basic Operational Description  
The following is a list to quickly get a base station and belt-  
pack operating.  
The RKP-4B is the base station for the RKP-4 beltpack. The  
wireless keypanel system is a full duplex (simultaneous talk  
and listen) audio system that is designed to work with  
Adamä , Adamä CS and Zeusä and CRONUSä Digital  
Matrix Intercom Systems. The RKP-4’s operation is very sim-  
ilar to the MKP-4, BKP-4, TKP-4, and WKP-4, four button  
wired keypanels.  
1. Plug the base station into the desired Matrix port.  
2. Press <MENU> as powering up the base station.  
3. Set the Matrix address and options via the software  
menu. Reach the parameters to set by pressing  
<MENU>, then select, “System Settings”, now select  
“Matrix Settings”.  
The beltpack, via the base station, allows communications  
with a digital matrix and acts as a keypanel on the system.  
The base has the ability to program the frequencies of the  
beltpack over-the-air. The sidetone for the base’s local head-  
set and the beltpack are adjusted at the base station.  
4. Press <MENU> as powering-up the beltpack.  
5. Press <MENU> on the beltpack until you arrive at the  
encryption code screen. Press <SET> to begin editing  
the 4-digit code. Set the code that you wish.  
6. When finished with the encryption code, press and hold  
<MENU> + <UP> for 3 seconds on the beltpack. Then  
set the 4-digit base serial number on the beltpack’s dis-  
play.  
7. At the base station, set the 4-digit encryption code to  
match the beltpack.  
8. The base should now indicate, on the main status screen,  
a battery voltage and signal strength indicating the base  
and beltpack are communicating.  
9. The beltpack should now indicate dashes on the CWW.  
This indicates it is communicating with the matrix.  
10. Plug a headset into the base and beltpack. Adjust the  
microphone gain on both so the overmodulation light  
flashes only on the loudest expected speech level.

The TNC jack marked “RCV” is for the receive antenna. The  
TNC jack marked “TRAN” is for the transmit antenna. The  
base station will come with two 1/2 wave antennas. Always  
match the color dot on the base station with the colored band  
on the antenna.  
Auxiliary Port  
This jack allows a balanced input auxiliary signal to be placed  
into the base station. It also allows a balanced output signal to  
be brought out of the base station. The input signal can be  
software selected to be local or global. A local input signal is  
only heard at the base station’s local headset and beltpack. A  
global input signal is placed on the Matrix output audio from  
the base station. The pinout for this jack is in Figure 6-3.  
Matrix Port  
The RKP-4B connects to a matrix via the RJ-12 jack labeled,  
“MATRIX”. This connector contains input and output bal-  
anced audio and balanced data. The pinout for this jack may  
be seen in Figure 6-2. For a description of how to set up the  
audio levels at this jack refer to intercom settings in this sec-

The CAN bus cable starts at the Frequency Manager and then  
proceeds to the first base station. From the first base station,  
the CAN bus daily chains through all the base stations, stop-  
ping finally at the frequency Manager. Both base station RJ-  
45 CAN bus connectors are wired in parallel so it does not  
matter which jack is used for the input or output cable. See

System Settings  
Base Main Settings  
The systems settings allows a number of base station charac-  
teristics to be set. This includes base name, base number, aux  
type, base TX power, Matrix configuration options, sidetone  
and frequencies.  
This important screen enables the user to set the wired  
intercom type connected to the system, the auxiliary input  
type, the transmitter power, BP Off Mode, and the base  
station and beltpack side tone levels.  
Name and Number  
The name of the base station may be set to any 10  
digit alphanumeric character. For example, the  
name of the user may be entered. This provides an  
easy identifier to the user as to who’s base station  
it is.  
The number of the base station can also be set  
from 1 to 10. This is NOT the Matrix address. The  
Matrix address is set under “Matrix Settings”. In  
a system of base stations managed by a frequen-  
cy manager the base number must be set to a  
unique number because this is how the frequency  
manager identifies the base station.  
Auxiliary Line  
The auxiliary line may be set to local or global.  
Local = Any audio placed into the auxiliary input port  
is routed only to the base station’s local headset and  
beltpack.  
Global = Any audio placed into the auxiliary input port  
is routed not only to the base station’s local headset and  
beltpack, but also to the wired system connected to the  
matrix port.  
Base TX Power  
The base station transmit power can be set to two posi-  
tions.

Serial Number Code  
Software / Channel Map Version  
The software and channel maps of the beltpack may be dis-  
played from any of the main beltpack screens.  
The base serial number is required to be input to the beltpack  
to allow communication with that base station. The number  
like the encryption code, is composed of four hexidecimal  
digits. This extra security along with the encryption code  
means there is over 4 billion possible code combinations.  
Viewing the Software and Channel Map Version  
1. In any of the beltpack main screens press and hold the  
<DOWN> button for 3 seconds. The following screen  
containing the software version will appear.  
Changing the Serial Number Code  
1. Press and hold <MENU> + <UP> buttons at the  
encryption code screen for about 3 seconds. The seri-  
al number set screen will appear.  
2. As long as the <DOWN> button is pressed the soft-  
ware version in the beltpack will be displayed.  
2. Push <SET> to start the first number flashing. Select  
the desired number with the <UP> <DOWN> / arrow  
buttons.  
3. When the button is released the following two channel  
map screens will be displayed for a second each.  
3. Push <SET> to set the code. Now the next code loca-  
tion will begin flashing.  
4. The first screen indicates the receive channel map in  
the beltpack. The second screen indicates the transmit  
channel map. The above screens indicate that it is a A4  
band beltpack.  
4. Set the next three code locations in the same manner.  
Auto Programming  
5. The screen will now revert back to the main screen.  
This function allows the base station to change the beltpack’s  
frequencies “ over-the-air”. Thus whenever the base station’s  
groups / channels are changed the beltpack will automatically  
follow. If the beltpack’s frequencies are changed “over-the-air”,  
the beltpack will place those frequencies in group 64u, and go  
to group 64u.  
Auto frequency programming, via the base station changing  
frequencies, only will occur at the beltpack if the following is  
set: Beltpack already in communication with the base station,  
beltpack auto programming set to on and beltpack transmit  
power set to auto.  
Enabling / Disabling Auto Programming  
ClearScanTM  
1. In any of the beltpack main screens press and hold  
<UP> the button for 3 seconds. The following screen  
will appear.  
ClearScanTM allows the selection of RF clear channels in an  
area. The beltpack ClearScanTM has three modes:  
1. Scan Groups- The beltpack’s receiver scans all the  
factory defined groups and any user defined groups  
that have been set. The result is a list of the top 20  
groups, ranked in order of the most clear receive chan-  
nels in that group. The <UP> arrow all the way to the  
top is the group with the most clear channels.  
2. The auto programming option will also begin flashing.  
2. Scan within a Group - The beltpack’s receiver scans all  
the receive channels within a group. The result is a list of  
the channels in that group ranked in order of best to worst  
channels. The <UP> arrow all the way to the top is the  
channel that is the best.  
3. Use the <UP>/<DOWN> arrow buttons to turn the  
option on or off.  
4. Push <SET> to accept the change. The display will  
now return to the main screen.  
3. Scan Band - The beltpack’s receiver scans the entire  
band of frequencies continuously. It starts at the begin-  
ning of the receive band and checks the frequency  
every 100 kHz until the end of the receive band, then  
starts over. The user must push <SET> to stop the scan-  
ning. The 100 kHz step size is as close as is needed  
because the narrowest receive filters are 230 KHz  
wide. This is why every 25 KHz is not scanned.

Operation with a Matrix  
Assigning Intercom Keys  
Startup and Operational Check  
You can assign RKP-4 intercom keys using AZedit. For help  
with key assignment in AZedit, click the KP button on the  
program’s toolbar, then press the F1 key on the computer key-  
board for help.  
When power is applied, all LEDs will first flash green, then  
red (unless the beltpack is in dark operation. See “RKP-4  
Operation”. This confirms that all LEDs are working correct-  
ly. Also, the call waiting window will display asterisks (****)  
then dashes (----).  
You can also assign keys at the keypanel, with the following  
exceptions:  
NOTE: If the RKP-4keypanel cannot establish data commu-  
nications with the intercom system, asterisks will continue to  
display. Check the intercom cable connections (in particular,  
the data connections).  
1. Special functions (auto follow, auto listen, etc.) cannot  
be assigned.  
Several symptoms may occur if the keypanel address in incor-  
rectly set:  
2. You can only assign one destination to each talk key  
(talk level 1). If you need to assign special functions, or  
activate two destinations with a single talk key (talk  
level 1 and talk level 2) you must assign the key using  
AZedit.  
1. There may be no indication when there is an incoming call.  
2. When an intercom key is pressed to talk, the destination  
may not hear the audio.  
3. The call waiting display may behave erratically.  
If you assign talk level 1 from the keypanel, it will erase any  
talk level 2 assignment that you previously assigned using  
AZedit.  
If any of these symptoms occur, recheck the keypanel address  
switch setting.  
Assign intercom keys at the RKP-4 as follows:  
Always reset the RKP-4B after changing the address setting.  
Do this by cycling power on the base station.  
1. Make sure the key that you want to assign is off.  
2. Press the <SCROLL UP> or <SCROLL DOWN> key  
to view the list of intercom names in the call waiting  
window.  
a. If you start by pressing Scroll Up, the list will start  
with the top of the point-to-point names. If you start by  
pressing scroll down, the list will start with the bottom  
of the point-to-point names. Examine or assign a name  
from a different scroll list as follows:  
b. Make sure that the CWW (call waiting window) is  
clear. (Dashes should display.) Tap <COPY> then  
<LISTEN 4> to clear CWW.  
c. Tap the copy key and then tap the Scroll Up button.  
The CWW displays P-P for point to point. Click on the  
<SCROLL UP> or <SCROLL DOWN> button to go  
through the different scroll lists available  
d. To select a particular scroll list, tap the <COPY> button.  
e. You can go through the names in the selected scroll list  
by tapping the <SCROLL UP> or <SCROLL  
DOWN> button.

Clearing Key Assignments  
1. Make sure that the key or keys that you want to clear are  
turned off.  
.You can scroll one name at a time by clicking and  
immediately releasing the <SCROLL UP> or <SCROLL  
DOWN> button. If you press and hold the button it will  
start scrolling slowly through the names. After a few sec-  
onds the scroll speed will increase. This is useful when you  
need to scroll through a long list.  
2. Tap the <COPY> then <LISTEN 4>. This clears the call  
waiting display. (Dashes should display).  
3. Press and hold the <COPY> button, then tap the inter-  
com key that you want to clear. The talk or listen LED  
will flash to confirm that the key assignment is cleared.  
You can tap several keys in succession to clear them  
while continuing to hold down the <COPY> button.  
.The following types of names may not appear in the scroll  
list: UPL Resources, IFB’s Relays (GPI outputs), and  
ISO’s. This is because the scroll enable check boxes for  
these items may not be checked in AZedit. If you don’t  
know how to activate these check boxes, proceed as fol-  
lows: Run AZedit. Then, press the F1 key on your comput-  
er for help. Click the Search button in help, and type “UPL  
Resources” or “IFB”, etc. (without the quote marks). From  
the list of available help topics, select any topic that tells  
you how to access or set up the item that you typed. For  
example, there is a topic that tells you how to access UPL  
Resources. Once you access UPL Resources, again press  
the F1 key for help. Within the new help screen, you should  
find help with the scroll enable feature.  
Changing Setup Pages  
There are four setup pages available. Each setup page can  
contain a complete set of key assignment. By changing the  
setup page you can therefore quickly change all of the keys  
assignments. Change the setup page as follows:  
1. Make sure all intercom keys are off.  
2. Tap the <COPY> then <LISTEN 4>. This clears the call  
waiting display.  
3. When the name you want to assign is displayed in the  
call waiting window, release the Scroll button.  
3. Press both scroll up and down. The currently assigned  
setup page will display in the call waiting window. Tap

Intercom Key Operation for Different  
Types of Key Assignments  
Talk+Auto-reciprocal (AR) Listen Key Assignment:  
The down position activates talk. Listen is always on and con-  
tinuously monitors whatever is assigned to the talk position.  
Basic Talk and/or Listen Key Operation: The lower  
button activates talk (if assigned). The upper button acti-  
vates listen (if assigned). Talk and listen may be latched  
on or off independently by tapping up or down.  
All Call (AC) Talk Key Assignment: When a talk key is  
assigned as an All Call key, it operates only as a switch  
to turn on or off all talk keys to the left of the All Call key.  
These other talk keys will then activate according to the  
way they have been assigned. Note that will also affect  
any listen keys that have been assigned with special func-  
tions. For example, an auto listen key will also activate if  
its corresponding talk key has been activated by an All  
Call key.  
NOTE:  
The following paragraphs describe special types of key  
assignments called special functions. These types of key  
assignments can only be set up using the AZedit software,  
and they are described in detail in the software help file. To  
find out if a key has a special function assignment, you can  
display the key’s assignment as described under  
“Displaying Key Assignments”. If a special function is  
assigned to a listen key, you will see AF, or AL, etc. when  
you display the key assignment.  
Intercom Key Indications  
Talk Indicator:  
.Solid green: Talk is activated.  
Talk+Auto-follow (AF) Listen Key Assignment: This  
key assignment works the same as the basic talk/listen key  
assignment: The down position activates talk, and the up  
position activates listen. Talk and listen may be turned on  
or off independently by pressing up or down.  
.Green flashing “incoming call” indication: The person  
assigned to the key is calling. Activate the key to talk  
back.  
Talk+Auto-Listen (AL) Listen Key Assignment: The  
down position activates both talk and listen. However,  
only the talk LED will turn on. If talk is on, you cannot  
turn off listen. If talk is off, you can turn listen on inde-  
pendently by pressing up.  
.Continuous red “in use” indication: An “in-use’ indica-  
tion is provided for an IFB or ISO key. It is also provid-  
ed for a key that talks to a remote intercom system  
(when your intercom system is equipped with optional  
trunking). The “in-use” indication warns you that some-  
one else is currently talking.  
Talk+Auto-mute (AM) Listen Key Assignment: The  
down position activates talk. And, if listen is on, it auto-  
matically turns off until talk is released. When talk is off,  
listen may be turned on independently by pressing up.  
.Red flashing “busy” indication; May occur when a key  
is activated to talk to an IFB or a remote intercom sys-  
tem. This indicates that some other keypanel with a  
higher priority is currently talking and you cannot talk at  
this time.  
Talk+Auto-reciprocal (AR) Listen Key Assignment:  
The down position activates talk. Listen is always on and  
continuously monitors whatever is assigned to the talk  
position.  
Listen Indicator:  
.Solid red: Listen is activated. (This indication will only be  
provided when you manually turn listen on by tapping or  
pressing upward on a key. It will not occur.

Call Waiting Operation for Incoming Calls  
Displaying Key Assignments  
As previously described, the talk indicator for a key will flash  
when there is an incoming call to that key, and you may acti-  
vate that key to talk back. Also if display call is set to enable  
at the base, the caller’s name will appear in the call waiting  
window, and you may press down on the call waiting key  
instead to talk back. If a caller is not already assigned to an  
intercom key, the caller’s name will always appear in the call  
waiting window, and you must use only the call waiting key  
to talk back.  
You can use this feature to check key assignments after mak-  
ing changes. You can also use it if you think the key assign-  
ments have been changed but the designation strip has not  
been updated.

Frequency Bands  
Frequency Bands  
The RKP-4B system operates in TV channels 16 to 36 and 38  
to 59. This is the frequency range of 482 to 608 MHz and 614  
MHz to 746 MHz. The band, TV channels and frequencies are  
shown in Table 2. Most bands are 18 MHz wide, however  
band 7 is 24 MHz wide.  
Bands F to E are always base transmit bands (beltpack receive  
bands). Bands 1 to 7 are always base receive bands (beltpack  
transmit bands). Thus an A2 base station would be comprised  
of an A band transmitter paired with a 2 band receiver.  
Band Pairing for Systems  
All band pairs cannot be made into a system (a single system  
is comprised of a base and beltpack). Table 1 show the avail-  
able band parings.  
Table 1  
Available Band parings  
In Table 1 it can been seen that a C base station transmit band  
can be paired with 4, 5, 6 or 7 receive bands. However, a C3  
unit cannot be made. This is because a certain amount of fre-  
quency separation between transmit and receive bands is  
required for good transmit and receive operation. If they are  
too close the RF performance of the system is reduced.

Factory Group Plan  
There are 50 factory defined groups in a base  
station and beltpack. These group are organized  
in different ways to provide flexibility to the  
user on selecting frequencies. A group is com-  
posed of intermodulation free frequencies, but a  
group is also organized to be composed of fre-  
quencies in different combinations of the TV  
channels. The user then can select a group that  
is clear of broadcast TV channels in the area by  
selecting a group(s) that doesn’t use those chan-  
nels.  
Table 3 indicates how the factory defined  
groups use the three TV channels for transmit  
and 3 TV channels for receive. A shaded TV  
channel indicates the group has frequencies in  
that channel. The white TV channel indicates  
the group has no frequencies in that TV chan-  
nel. Group 1 uses at least one frequency from  
each of the three TV channels for TX and RX.  
However group 50 uses only the third TV chan-  
nel for TX and RX.

Troubleshooting  
Reread the sections of this manual to make sure you have If you are unable to solve the problem, contact the dealer from  
completed system set-up properly.  
whom you purchased the system for assistance.  
PROBLEM  
SOLUTION  
DISTORTION - System’s audio quality seems distorted  
at medium to high input levels.  
Reduce microphone gain by adjusting microphone gain  
control.  
HISS - System seems to produce a “hiss” which is unde-  
sirable.  
Check the gain setting on all beltpacks and the base sta-  
tion. They may be too low to too high. Check to make  
sure you are still well within range of the base station.  
LOW OUTPUT - System produces a low output level.  
Check the gain setting on both the beltpacks and the base  
station. They may be too low.  
FEEDBACK - Moving around area of use produces  
“squeal” or “howl” in various locations using ext. speak-  
ers.  
Reduce the gain setting on both the beltpacks and the  
base station. They may be too high. If in the 2W Mode,  
the intercom channel you are on may be unloaded.  
DROPOUTS - When moving around the area of use  
there seems to be locations where the signal “swooshes”  
or completely disappears.  
Make sure both antennas on the base station and beltpack  
are connected and follow the location suggestions.  
Change the location of the base station and antennas or  
avoid the bad areas with the beltpacks.  
NO AUDIO from BASE STATION or BELTPACK  
headsets.  
Check talk LED to make sure it is on. Make sure belt-  
pack batteries are OK. Make sure the base station and the  
beltpack serial number and encryption codes all match.  
****- Appear in BELTPACK call waiting window  
Check that cable is in “Matrix” jack on the rear panel of  
the base station. Check cable connection to Matrix. Make  
sure base station Matrix address is set to correct port on  
Matrix.  
when connected to the Matrix.

Battery Information  
Improper battery selection, use, installation and care are the  
cause of numerous wireless system failures.  
Battery Life:  
RKP-4  
Alkaline Batteries: Alkaline batteries such as Mallory’s  
DURACELL® or Eveready’s ENERGIZER® provide the  
most reliable operation in wireless transceivers.  
Alkaline, 8-10 hours typical  
Nickel Metal Hydride, 7-9 Hours typical  
The use of low cost carbon-zinc batteries is NOT recom-  
mended.  
WARNING:  
Do not place an alkaline RKP-4 battery pack in any battery  
charger. Severe charger and battery pack damage may result.  
Nickel-Metal Hydride Batteries: These batteries can save  
you money in the long run, as they can be recharged. Typical  
battery life is about 90% of the length of time alkaline batter-  
ies last.  
Cold Temperatures and Batteries  
The battery life times listed in this section are at room tem-  
perature. Alkaline and Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries service  
hours falls off significantly at low temperatures due to battery  
chemistry. Alkaline batteries typically have less than half their  
room temperature service life if used at freezing 32° F (0° C).  
Due to the service hours reduction of Alkaline and Nickel  
Metal Hydride batteries at low temperature the user will need  
to change batteries more often.  
Another solution is using Lithium AA cells if beltpacks are to  
be used in very cold temperatures. Lithium batteries, like the  
Energizer® E2 Lithium AA cells, are excellent batteries at  
cold temperatures. At the temperatures of 15° F (-9° C),  
Lithium AA cells will last about 7 times longer than Alkaline  
batteries. that equates to 2 hours for Alkaline vs 14 hours for  
Lithiums. However, the tradeoff is Lithiums cost more and  
are less friendly to the environment than alkalines.
