    Plug into 2-W power supply. If the lack of powered 2-W system is intentional (such as when using a Clear-Com MT1, or when daisy-chaining multiple base stations), open the base station cover and set JP1 (IC1) and/or JP2 (IC2) to the ON position. If daisy-chaining, do not forget to also terminate one of the base stations by setting JP5 (IC1) and/or JP6 (IC2) to ON.

  • Page 29: Jumper Settings

    If termination of the base station is necessary (such as when multiple base stations are daisy chained), set the JP5 (IC1) and/or JP6 (IC2) jumpers to the ON position on one base station (when connecting multiple base station together via 2-wire connection). Only one base station should be terminated per channel. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...

  • Page 34: Adaptive Frequency Hopping

    EN 300 238 v1.8.1. CLEAR-COM Adaptive Frequency Hopping In order to reduce interference with other equipment and comply with these new regulations, Clear-Com has implemented an Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) mode for the new DX EU base stations. The key idea behind AFH is using only the good frequencies, or channels, unoccupied by other equipment.
  • Page 35 It is possible, however, that in an environment with severe interference that the system may experience a slight degradation. In the AFH mode, the Clear-Com system will use a minimum of 15 channels. If the environment is very crowded and less than 15 channels are truly available, there could be increased radio ‘packet loss’...
  • Page 36 NOTE: If the Clear-Com system does not have AFH, then the base station should be set to operate in the region of the 2.4 GHz band where the Wi-Fi access point is not operating. For example, if the Wi-Fi access point is set to Wi-Fi channel 1, the base station should be set to operate in the ‘High’...
