16 MULTI RF DECK/ MULTI CONTROL HEAD
16.4 Configuring the Initial Configuration
Note
The firmware is written to KRK-14H and KCH-20R at the factory. If the firmware of the Control Head and the firmware of
0
the RF Deck do not match, "FIRM MISMATCH" appears.
Because the firmware needs to be written to each panel to make a system in a Dual Control Head structure, update the
0
firmware by using both Control Heads.
Once the initial configuration is done, if a system is made in a Multi RF Deck/ Multi Control Head structure, the firmware
0
can be written to multiple RF Decks simultaneously.
KCT-71 has parts of the following 3 lengths:
0
KCT-71M2: 17 feet (5.2 m)
KCT-71M3: 25 feet (7.6 m)
KCT-71M4: 1.6 feet (0.5 m)
Activating a Radio Feature License (KWD-5004MR)
To use the Multi RF Deck/ Multi Control Head function, a Radio Feature License (KWD-5004MR) for a Multi RF Deck needs
to be activated for the transceiver by using KPT-300LMC. In the same manner as the writing of the firmware, activate the
Radio Feature License for each RF Deck. The following is the operation procedure to use 3 RF Decks:
1
Make the system in a Single RF Deck/ Single Control Head structure.
2
Activate the Radio Feature License (KWD-5004MR) for each RF Deck with the Control Heads and RF Decks
connected.

KWD-5004MR (Multi RF Deck) is activated before the factory shipment. No charge is incurred for activation.
