Hereby, Clear-Com, LLC, an HM Electronics, Inc, company, declares that the DX210 is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of R&TTE Directive 1999/5/EC. This product operates in the 2400 to 2483.5 MHz frequency range. The use of this frequency range is not yet harmonized between all countries.
® The Clear-Com HME DX210 is a 2-channel Digital Wireless Intercom System that supports up to 15 beltpacks or all-in-one headsets per base station (any combination of Beltpacks or All-In-One Headsets). Using the DX210 in the 2-channel mode, any 3 of the 15 beltpacks and all-in-one headsets can transmit simultaneously.
Up to four batteries can be charged in the battery charger at the same time. The battery status lights next to each charging port are explained below. Up to six fully charged batteries can be stored in the battery storage ports. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...

NOTE: Batteries should not be left in charge ports after being fully charged. If a battery is left in a charge port for more than three weeks, the yellow indicator may light up. In this case, it does not indicate a faulty battery. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
IMPORTANT: Batteries should not be left in charge ports after being fully charged. A battery left in a charging port for more than three weeks may display the yellow indicator light, but it does not indicate a faulty battery. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
Press the POWER switch (#1) on the front panel to turn on the base station. A red light on the switch should go on. If you have more than one base station, refer to Appendix D, page 24 for multiple base station registration. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
Press it in until it snaps. Place each Beltpack in a pouch. Plug its headset cable connector into each Beltpack. All-In-One Headsets Insert a fully charged battery in each Headset. Press it in until it snaps. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
Press the RESET button at the lower-left corner of the base station with a pen or similar pointed object. When the STATUS display becomes blank, press the REG button and register the beltpack or all-in-one headset again. If registration fails again, call your dealer for assistance.

Decrease sidetone level (5 steps) * NOTE: There is no sidetone adjustment function for All-In-One Headsets. Power button NOTE: If you are not connecting a wired intercom, go on to System Operation, section 3, page 14. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
NOTE: If no power is detected at the 2-W connector, the 2-W light will turn red and no audio will be passed through. Plugging in a connection to a Clear-Com or RTS power supply will turn the light green and operation will begin.

During ISO communication, a relay closure is provided. This can be used for tasks such as keying a long range radio or triggering an alert light. It can be activated from a beltpack, all-in-one headset or a local headset. Base station rear panel Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
TALK light indicates that the TALK mode is active via the local headset. ● Use the VOLUME control to adjust the output to the local headset earpiece. ● Use the MIC LEVEL control to adjust the audio level from the local headset microphone. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
If you press and hold the volume- down button, repeating beeps will be heard as the volume steps down to minimum. When minimum volume is reached, rapidly repeating beeps will be heard. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
For the All-in-One headset, press the blue Battery-release button, and slide the battery out from under the earpiece. Replace the batter in the same position as the removed battery, and snap it into place. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
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.

(not more) can be “daisy- ® ® of each base station (following Clear-Com / RTS chained” together with cables connected to the 4-W or AUX connectors. NOTE 1: DX210 does not provide 2-wire line power, therefore, 2-wire power bypass must be used.
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...
Press the REG button on the primary. The STATUS display will go blank. ● Register beltpacks and all-in-one headsets to the secondary base stations as instructed in section 2.3.2, page 9. After registration, turn off the secondary base station and all beltpacks and all-in-one headsets. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
Page 31
For secondary base stations, the beltpacks and all-in-one headsets must always be registered after secondary base station registration, with the primary base station remaining active and the secondary base station displaying one bar. Clear-Com HME DX210 Operating Instructions...
Register all beltpacks and all-in-one headsets to be used with each base station as instructed in section 2.3.2, page NOTE: If you change a base station’s frequency band setting, you will have to re-register all beltpacks and all-in-one headsets that were registered to that base station.

Your DX210 should be set to the high or low band opposite any Wi-Fi frequency range in use.

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’...
It takes a few seconds for the secondary to recognize that the primary is not available and revert to a primary state. However, you can register Beltpacks under this condition. Clear-Com HME DX210 System Guide...

LED will be in hexadecimal. This means that the LED will represent the first 10 beltpacks as 0 to 9. Beltpac 11 will be represented by the letter A, beltpac 12 will be represented by the letter B and on up to beltpac 15 as E. Please see below.
