  • Page 38: Chapter 5 - Ifb100 Ifb Transmitter

    Getting to Know Your IFB Transmitter It is a 100 mW RF transmitter designed to be used with the Zaxcom Digital wireless system. The IFB100 uses a digital spread spectrum signal to send and receive IFB audio, timecode and remote control signals. By using spread spectrum technology, the IFB is immune to interference.
  • Page 39: Setting Up The Ifb100

    The supplied antenna is recommended for timecode and remote control transmission only. Adjusting the Input Audio Level The input audio level is preset by Zaxcom at +4 dBu. However, this level can be adjusted using the trim pots located on the outside of the unit. See the Side View in Fig 5-1 {p.38}.
  • Page 40: Ifb100 Standard Menu

    The Remote Unit ID page can be set to ALL or a specific unit. NOTE: If the TRX9xx/ZFR100 is not in range of the IFB or is on the fringe of coverage, the gain control command may have to be repeated.
  • Page 41: Remote Audio Frequency Change Page

    The IFB100‟s timecode generator is in Free-Run mode unless it is connected to a timecode source. If an external timecode source is connected, the IFB100‟s internal timecode generator stays in sync with it. If a TRX9xx/ZFR100 is in Autoload mode, starting and stopping recording is controlled by the external source.
  • Page 42: Ifb Frequency Page

    The IFB100 should be adjusted with a minimum 2 MHz separation between channels. However, 8 MHz separation between channels is necessary when using the Zaxcom Voting System (ZVS). If the ZVS is enabled, you need to allocate four adjacent channels, 2 MHz apart, for the IFB100s. For example, the ZVS would use 2.403 GHz, 2.405 GHz, 2.407 GHz and 2.409 GHz.
  • Page 43: Entering The Extended Menu

  • Page 45: Remote Control Unit Id Page

    When setting the group code, be sure it is unique. This is very important when multiple wireless groups are in the same area, since any IFB100 on the same group code as yours can affect your TRX9xx/ZFR100 units. To avoid this, coordinate with others in the area and ensure everybody is on a separate group code.
