    IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATIONS 1. For LT250 systems, to reduce the risk of electric shock, explosion or fire;  Use only the supplied AC power adapter  Do not disassemble the product  Avoid contact with liquids besides the permitted certain equipments.
  • Page 4 LT250 system operates in the 5GHz UNII band frequency range. LT250 system is approved for license free use in most countries. There may be restrictions on the use of some bands or RF spectrum operations in some countries. Therefore, it is your responsibility to confirm with the designated authorizer in your local area whether the equipments of the LT250 system approved to use in your country or not.
  • Page 5: Section 1: Introduction

    LT250 provides a full flexibility on grouping allowing up to three (3) communication group channels to be allocated with up to nine (9) full-duplex audio paths – eight (8) channels for Belt Pack and 1 (one) channel for Base Station. It also maintains the audio clarity high in quality even in noisy environments and guarantees private and secured communications by AES 256bit Level-3 encryption.
  • Page 6 Audio latency is one of the most critical factors in all digital wireless system. LT250 realized low latency, less than 23msec for total one-way system latency from the Belt Pack to the Base Station. Up to five Belt Packs and two Belt Pack Batteries can be charged at the same time by Battery Charger (BATCHG125). You can use rechargeable Battery Pack (BAT50) or two AA 1.5V alkaline batteries in the Belt Pack.

  • Page 19: Bp250 Belt Pack Setup And Pairing Up

    BP250 BELT PACK SETUP AND PAIRING UP When you operate each Belt Pack for the first time with the Base Station, you must pair up the Belt Pack with a Base Station. This pairing process allows a Base Station and a Belt Pack to recognize each other. The Base Station will identify all Belt Packs that paired up before and will recognize the difference between the Belt Packs.
  • Page 20: Pairing Up Belt Packs

    PAIRING UP BELT PACKS Check out the power status of the Base Station and each Belt Pack‟s, which will be paired up with. To execute a paring process, the Base Station and Belt Packs should be on. Belt Packs should not go further than 3 feet (1 meters) of the Base Station while they are being paired.

    AUXILIARY DEVICE SETUP Step 1: When you use auxiliary device, such as another intercom or other audio sources, put its output cable connector into the AUX IN connector (#17) and its input cable connector into the AUX OUT connector (#18), as the following pin connections. The AUX OUT and AUX IN connectors are 3-pin XLR type for balanced +20dBV (10V) maximum level.
  • Page 27: External Speaker Setup

    EXTERNAL SPEAKER SETUP Step 1: When you use external 8 ohm speaker, connect its cable wire to the 8 OHM SPKR 2-pin Spring Clamp connector (#21), as the following pin connections. To plug a cable wire into the 2-pin spring clamp connector, push and hold an orange-colored wire-release latch on the top of the connector, then put a cable wire into its applicable pin and release a wire-release latch.
  • Page 28: Rbs25 Remote Base Station Setup

    RBS25 REMOTE BASE STATION SETUP A Remote Base Station (RBS) can be connected to the Base Station through LAN, composing customized and continuous coverage, and enabling automatic roaming between coverage zones. The Remote Base Station supports the communication with Belt Packs in remote area from the Base Station. Standard CAT-5 cable is used to connect the Remote Base Station either directly to the LAN port on the rear panel of the Base Station or via the Network Switch.
  • Page 29 Step 1: IP Network set up with a configuration tool program. Download the LAON provided configuration tool program „LXSetting.exe‟ on your PC and connect the PC with the Base Station through USB cable. Run the program on your PC and set up IP Network information required as following instructions.
  • Page 30 Figure 3-20. COM Port Open DEVICE SEARCH From the „Command‟ selection drop down menu, click „Local BS Search‟ and „Execute‟ button. Then, the Base Station („BS‟) being connected with the PC via USB cable will be detected in the „Device List‟ window with Remote Base Station („RBS‟) as shown from the Figure 3-21.
  • Page 31 REMOTE BASE STATION CONNECTION STATUS To confirm the Remote Base Station‟s connection status, select RBS1 from the „Device List‟ and select „Remote RBS Search‟ from the „Command‟ selection drop down menu and click „Execute‟ button then, the network connection status will be displayed as „Connected‟ or „Disconnected‟ as shown from the Figure 3-22. Figure 3-22.

Select „Local Update‟ from the „Command‟ selection drop down menu and click „Execute‟ button to complete the update. As updating the BS network information, back to back RBS network information will be updated accordingly.
  • Page 33 Figure 3-25. Network information update for RBS which is in paired mode Step 2: Paring up the Remote Base Station with Base Station Once the IP network information setting is completed, disconnect the PC from Base Station and reboot the Base Station. For pairing up process, the Remote Base Station should be connected direct to the Base Station through standard CAT-5 LAN cable.
  • Page 34 When you use the network switching device which has the POE function: Connect CAT-5 cable to LAN Connector (#7) of Remote Base Station and connect the other side to network switching device which has the POE function. Upon the power supply, the green light should go on. In case of using battery, when the battery level is low, red light will go on.
  • Page 35 NOTE: Not using dedicated network between the Base Station and the Remote Base Station, there would be delays due to network traffic. When there are audio breakups due to the delays, it is highly recommended to compose a dedicated network. „Dedicated Network‟ means LAN is used only by the Base Station and Remote Base Station without any other devices connected.
  • Page 36 Relocation of the Base Station and Remote Base Station In a certain environment, audio breakups could occur even though high signal strength is observed. There might be two reasons as followings:  A Belt Pack is within 6.5 feet (2 meter) from the antenna that of the Base Station or the Remote Base Station. ...
