    You might cause a fire if you expose the Campus Pager to rain or moisture! Keep the unit in a clean, dry environment. To reduce the risk of fire, do not set the Campus Pager on any heating or cooking appliance.
  • Page 9: Introduction

    The Campus Pager is a wireless, in-house paging system that alerts you to important messages through its individual system pagers. One model (FX800A) is available with included pagers (FX801A), and another model (FX810A) works with pagers that you order separately (FX801A, FX802A).
  • Page 10 You can use the Campus Pager in a variety of applications, in any environment in which you need unlimited/direct paging. The Pager has a transmission range of up to 2 miles (3.2 km). • restaurants • hospitals • factories • hotels •...

    3.3 Vibrating/Tone Pager (FX802A) The Vibrating/Tone Pager works in a similar fashion, except that it does not beep 12 times every ten seconds. Instead, it vibrates once. The process does not repeat three times, but the unit does beep once every 60 seconds, and allows you to view old messages from newest to oldest by pushing the on/off button.
  • Page 13: Installation

    Steel and concrete walls reduce the Campus Pager’s transmitting range. If the Campus Pager is located in a concrete or steel building, and part of the coverage area is located outside the structure, place the unit and antenna close to a window.

  • Page 15: Connecting Power To The Campus

    You can use an outdoor base antenna in place of the supplied antenna to increase the Campus Pager’s transmitting range. The PL259-type antenna jack on the Campus Pager makes it easy to use with a variety of antennas. When installing or removing a base station antenna, use extreme caution.

    4.3 Connecting Power to the Campus Pager Plug the power cord into a standard AC outlet. The Campus Pager does not operate when AC power fails, but it maintains the system code in memory. (See Section 4.6.) Because the Campus Pager maintains its memory through power failure, there is no need to reprogram the unit when power is restored.

    Each pager has its own pager code, which allows the Campus Pager to send a message to a single pager, or to ALL of your system’s pagers using the TRANSMIT ALL feature. You can record each of the pager codes, and their corresponding users on the card located under the Campus Pager.
