Page 18: System Information
SYSTEM INFORMATION DECT Technology Unite is based upon DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications) technology, an international standard for telecommunications using wireless technology, and known in particular for its use with cordless telephones. Wireless technology enables a device to communicate with a central processing unit.
Page 19: Automatic Frequency And Group Management
Actual restriction of the system is generally only to be expected when all influencing factors occur at once. For example: in one area of a building, there are 70 simultaneously active DECT telephones; in this same part of the building there are 32 Unite groups, the transmitters of which are attempting to reach their groups through several walls simultaneously.
Page 20: Group Id
For other countries: please contact Televic Conference. All devices are supplied with the group ID 256 and fixed audio encryption allowing quick and easy setup. This allows for quick and easy initial use. The group ID identifies devices that can be placed in a virtual group. For example, all devices within a building, a tour group or a conference room.
Page 21: Using With Group Id
Example: Via the dynamic channel search, a receiver which is set to the group ID 160 will find all transmitters which are active and also set to the group ID 160. The receiver will not find transmitters beyond the set ID range of 160. When using several transmitters (e.g.
Page 22 As the encryption code is not transmitted wirelessly, the system is better protected against unauthorized listening. Should the receiver receive a differently encrypted audio signal for which no encryption code has been saved, the received audio signal will be muted. The receiver display will also alternate between showing the relevant channel name and the "KEY!"...

Page 120: Pairing
PAIRING Creating a Pairing In order to communicate with each other, the transmitter and receivers must have the same group ID, encryption key and channel name. Only then they can communicate with each other. There will be no communication with receivers that do not have the same pairing information. This is illustrated in the figure below: The required audio encryption key is generated in the Unite Charger (Unite CC, CR, CDD-8/4 or CDS-4/2) or via the Unite Manager software.
Page 121: Encryption
2. Using the Unite Manager Software on a PC. 3. Via dynamic channel search. Encryption The audio data is always encrypted with an AES-256 code to ensure a secure transmission against unauthorized listening. The required key will be generated within the charging unit itself and transmitted to the transmitters and receivers during the pairing process.
Page 122: Group Id
The transmitter and receiver can only communicate if the settings for group ID, channel name and encryption match. Transmitters cannot communicate with receivers that do not have the same pairing information. If you need a specific encryption key, you need to use a group ID between the range of 1 and 149.
Page 123: Changing The Group Id
When using several transmitters (e.g. Unite AP4 and several Unite TP) with the same group ID at the same time, make sure that the individual channel names differ from each other! Otherwise this can cause connection problems with the receivers! Using with Group ID 1-149 If several receivers are to be divided into different groups with an individual encryption, for each group an individual group ID between 1 and 149 can be assigned.
Page 124: Setting The Channel Name

Page 219 The charger has been switched to a static IP address and is no longer available / “Discover Devices” in the Unite Manager software generates the "SMNP Timeout" error message. In order to reset the charger’s network settings, use a paper clip to press the reset button next to the charger’s network connection for 3 - 5 seconds.
Page 220 Reboot the charger or Unite AP4 when changing the router and/or the subnet to receive a new DHCP IP address on the new network. In rare cases it is possible that a mobile device (transmitter or receiver) is not detected in the charger.
Page 221 UNITE BODYPACK RECEIVERS The transfer of a new firmware for bodypack devices does not start automatically. Remove the devices one by one from the charging slots and check whether the current firmware version is already on the device. Check the menu under "System" > "Information" > "Device". The update process is automatically activated upon re-insertion into the charger and takes up to 10 minutes to complete.
Page 222 Please check: if the selected channel name works with other receivers. if the pairing information conforms with the Unite AP4 in use. On the mobile receiver, use the channel list to select the channel again or restart the mobile receiver The battery state is not displayed correctly on mobile devices (transmitter and receiver).
Page 223 When using a USB audio connection of a TP/TH in the master mode with a PC or Mac, the USB audio connection will not be established if the TP was not switched on before USB was connected. In this case briefly disconnect the USB connection and reconnect the TP, which is now switched on, via USB.
Page 224 When updating portable devices with firmware versions older than V0082, the General Setting Talkback "Request" could prevent the update process from being completed. Please set the Talkback setting to On or Off before updating devices with versions prior to V0082 using chargers prior to V0029.
Page 225 UNITE AP4 No connection can be created from / to an AP4 in Dante ® Controller. ® Please make sure that the other device (i.e. the Dante Virtual Soundcard) is set to 48 kHz and, if ® necessary reboot both devices and restart the Dante Controller Software.
Page 226 There can be only up to two audio data streams per AP4. For more routing options all channels ® have to be relayed to a Dante -enabled mixer first. The status LED of the Unite AP4 will illuminate green before the device is fully operational. After a reboot it is possible that the device data is not yet completed when the device is read too quickly by the Unite Manager PC software.
