Features Tecpro Series 2 headset outstations (or beltpacks as they are commonly known) are tough, lightweight, remote intercom stations typically hung from the belt but can also be used freestanding or mounted on a suitable surface.They offer full duplex operation and have been designed for mobile use where care may not always taken by the user.
The vibration motor (as used in mobile phones) triggers when a call alert signal is received. This function can be switched off by pressing a combination of buttons on the beltpack.
To reduce weight without compromising strength or hard-wearing properties, Series 2 beltpack cases are constructed from high impact ABS.
All series 2 beltpacks can send and receive ‘Remote Mic Kill’ signals.This mode is useful for keeping unnecessary noise and chatter to a minimum so important commands are not missed. On receipt of a 24kHz tone on circuit A or B, the beltpack will respond by switching off the corresponding microphone if it is active.To initiate ‘Remote Mic Kill’, a combination of buttons must be pressed. First generation beltpacks use mechanical ‘Mic select’ switches so are unable to respond to the mic kill tone.
The brightly illuminated ‘Mic Select’ and ‘Call’ switches allow for good visibility in well lit areas. For blackout conditions with an Series 2 beltpacks retain the robustness and simplicity of previous audience present, a low light mode may be entered which dims Tecpro designs while extending their performance to meet current the green mic buttons and prevents the call light from flashing. operational requirements.They are compatible with earlier designs This is initiated by pressing a combination of buttons on the beltpack. of Tecpro equipment.
Three versions with vibration alert are available.The BP531 single circuit beltpack, the BP543 and BP545 beltpacks are dual circuit models. Single circuit beltpacks allow access to one intercom circuit and dual circuit beltpacks offer simultaneous access to two separate intercom circuits. The BP543 dual circuit beltpack has A and B ‘Mic Select’ switches. Pressing the respective switch will open or close that microphone circuit. The ‘Mic Select’ switches glow green when activated.Two volume controls are provided for monitoring via a pluggable headset. To catch the attention of operators who have removed their beltpack and headset, a call alert signal is sent by pressing the red ‘Call’ button.This produces a combination of 20kHz tone and a DC signal to trigger the call lights on all user stations and outstations on a chosen circuit. DC call signalling has been retained for compatibility with previous Tecpro designs. When a call alert signal is received on circuit A, that channel’s ‘Mic select’ and ‘Call’ buttons flash brightly to attract attention. This is repeated for circuit B. For increased visibility, Series 2 beltpacks have a mimic LED on their base so the call alert may be seen from most angles. A ‘Call’ send/receive confidence tone is also heard in the headset. This may be muted by pressing a combination of buttons on the beltpack.
When talk back from an operator is not required, one or both microphone circuits can be disabled by pressing a combination of buttons on the beltpack. A ‘mushroom’ shaped extrusion on the rear of the case is designed to mate with a swivel belt clip (supplied) and a wide range of other options including the ‘hip drop clip’, ‘sash band clip’ and ‘no belt’ waistband clip. Other options are under development. The BP543 dual circuit beltpack is fitted with two female XLR 3 pin connectors for separate circuit connections.
