__________________System 2000_________________ 16 CHANNEL WIRELESS MICROPHONE AND RECEIVER The 16 Channel Wireless Microphone, Receiver and Charging Cradle are custom designed units that allow for wireless PA communication from anywhere on the coach. The unit consists of a receiver mounted in the parcel area directly behind the driver, and a rechargeable hand-held microphone and charging cradle. The receiver has a front mounted power button and LED indicator. When the button is pushed in, the power is on and the indicator illuminates. When the microphone is keyed a RF LED illuminates indicating the presence of a RF signal. An adjustable level (volume) control is provided to set the relative audio level. When the microphone is spoken into the audio level is indicated on five vertical LEDs. The receiver also has a diversified antenna system (dual antenna). This system switches between the two antennas to locate the strongest signal from the microphone. The antenna in use is indicated by lighting either the A or B LED. Both the receiver and the microphone have manual channel selectors. The channel is set with a small screwdriver and both the channel selectors on the microphone and receiver must match. The unit is a FCC approved device operating on the following 16 frequencies: 175.000 MHz 175.300 MHz 175.600 MHz 175.900 MHz
176.200 MHz 176.500 MHz 176.800 MHz 177.100 MHz
177.400 MHz 177.700 MHz 178.000 MHz 178.300 MHz

System 2000 Panasonic 8-Disc CD Changer Operations: •
When used in conjunction with the Panasonic Dash Radio, the 8 Disc CD Changer provides the improved clarity of CD audio. The CD changer is capable of holding eight audio CDs. The Changer is controlled by the Panasonic Radio. The radio controls include Disc control features including Disc selection and Disc scan. Individual track functions include: Track Selection, Track Search, Track Repeat, Random Track, and Track scan.
Features: •
The CD Changer receives power (+12VDC) and all control signals from the radio through a single connector on the side of the unit. An external memory line is also provided.
•
The CD magazine can be removed from the unit (via the eject button) for convenient storage and security.
•
Compact size and easy mounting keeps the Parcel rack clear and open for baggage storage.

System 2000 Tuner 2000 Operations: •
The Tuner is capable of receiving both UHF and VHF television broadcasts and displaying them on the monitors. The unit is typically mounted on the side of the VCP, located in the front left parcel area behind the driver. The tuner has a two terminal “Y” connector for power and is connected “in-line” with the power cable going to the VCP (both 12 and 24 VDC models are available). For optimum reception, the tuner requires an external UHF/VHF antenna to be connected to the Antenna in Jack, also located on the rear of the unit. The received channel is split internally into separate audio and video signals. The video and audio outputs of the tuner are connected to the video and audio inputs of the VCP for display on the monitors. The tuner has a red LED that indicates that power is present. This LED becomes brighter in intensity when the unit is turned on via the power button on the front. There are three channel control buttons labeled AUTO, CHANNEL UP, and CHANNEL DOWN also located on the front of the unit. The AUTO Channel button is pressed to automatically program the unit to receive broadcast signals of sufficient strength to produce a viewable picture. The CHANNEL UP and CHANNEL DOWN buttons increment or decrement respectively the programmed channels within the unit’s memory. As the coach travels to different locations, the auto-programming feature may need to be repeated to update the tuner memory for the local broadcast area.

Remove a monitor from a position that does display video and re-insert it into the position with the suspect unit. If position now displays Video proceed to Defective Monitor Possible Cause. If not, Check coax connections, at the rear of the monitor, and at the other end of the cable. If the system has a Video Distribution Amp the other end will be at the amp. If not so equipped, the cable will have to be traced back to its connection point. Cable may be verified by performing a continuity check, or inserting a spare, known good cable in its place. Repair or replace cable as necessary.
Defective Slide Mount (561004).
Remove Monitor, check continuity on coax cable that extends from the rear of the unit. Repair or replace as necessary.
Defective Monitor (700182).
If replacing suspect monitor corrects the problem. Repair or replace the Monitor. Clean heads with a high quality wet style VHS cleaning tape. *Unit may require professional cleaning.
