CHAPTER 4: MAINTENANCE
CARING FOR YOUR TABLETOP CONTROLLER
•
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on your Tabletop Controller.
•
Unplug from the wall outlet before cleaning.
•
Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth moistened with water to clean the outside of your
Tabletop Controller.
CREATING A CUSTOM CABLE
If you wish to extend the cable length from the Tabletop Controller to the XAP to the full 150'-certified length,
you will need to create a custom cable of this length using CAT-3 or better cable. You CANNOT use a standard
telephone cable because the pinouts in a standard telephone cable connector are not compatible with the Y-
adapter supplied with your Tabletop Controller. In creating a custom cable, be sure that the connector pinouts
match those shown in Figure 4.1.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If you are having trouble with your Tabletop Controller, it might be improperly set up or other equipment might
be malfunctioning. To begin, check for the following:
•
The Tabletop Controller is plugged into the proper electrical outlet and the LCD display shows "ClearOne,"
indicating that the unit is powered on.
•
Make sure cables are securely connected.
•
If error messages appear when the Tabletop Controller is connected to Controller Buider stating that the
controller is not connected or is searching, check that the correct port and baud rate are set for the serial
port that the Tabletop Controller is connected to on your PC. You can check this through the Configure
Connection dialog (see Configure Connection on page 8).
If error messages appear when the Tabletop Controller is connected to a XAP stating that the controller is
not connected or is searching, then verify that the correct baud rate is being used on the XAP . The only
baud rates permitted by the Tabletop Controller are 38,400 and 57,600. Upon connecting with the XAP , the
Tabletop Controller automatically matches one of these baud rates with the baud rate received from the
XAP . Flow control must also be set to OFF. Make these adjustments, if necessary, by following the
instructions in your XAP User's Manual.
