The male 4-pin headset connector provides audio pathways for the headset
microphone and headset earpiece(s). This connector supports all Clear-Com and
compatible headsets using female 4-pin connectors. It will support dynamic
microphones.
Battery Recharger Connector
3
The Eclipse beltpack features an internal battery charger when you insert four
AA-format NiMH batteries to power the unit. The recharger circuit includes a
thermistor that senses the temperature of the battery pack to prevent
overcharging. To use this internal recharger, plug in the small barrel connector on
the supplied universal power supply into the beltpack connector, and then plug
the supply into the local AC current. The beltpack will automatically shut off
when the charging PSU is plugged into it. While it is charging, the beltpack
cannot be turned on. You can only turn it on when the charging PSU is
disconnected. A full charge takes approximately 3 to 4 hours depending on the
battery capacity. After this time, the charger will maintain a trickle charge to
keep the beltpack fully charged.
Eclipse beltpack usage time is dependent upon the batteries used. Some batteries
require more charge/discharge cycles than others to reach their rated capacity.
Caution: Do not put battery packs containing alkaline batteries into a recharger,
or recharge them in the beltpack. Serious damage or injury could result.
BELTPACK TURN-ON SEQUENCE
After pressing the POWER button on the rear of the beltpack for approximately
three seconds, the top control panel LEDs will flash and the display will light.
The display will say "CLearCom" and "Searching..." It will briefly say "Getting
Roles," and then will go to the main user screen.
The beltpack will always begin on page 1, which has the first two
communication routes assigned to the beltpack. When programming
communication routes for the users in the system, it is best to put the most
commonly used ones on this page.
BELTPACK TURN-OFF SEQUENCE
To turn off the beltpack, press and hold the POWER button on the rear of the
beltpack for about three seconds. The main screen will close, followed by a screen
that says "CLearCom" and "Shutting Down."
