128 Preparation for Operation TB8100 Installation and Operation Manual© Tait Electronics Limited June 2005Hardware Each base station in a TB8100 BSS must be assigned an identity 1 . Thisidentity is used to identify the base station to the Service Kit and CalibrationKit software, and to the control panel.You set the identity of each base station with the hex switch on the frontpanel of its reciter (refer to Figure 3.4 on page 33). For example, the recitersin a dual base station system would be numbered “1” and “2”. The reciterwith the lowest hex number becomes the “control” reciter. In a single basestation system, set the hex switch on the reciter to “1”.Note Reciters and PAs are normally numbered from left to right whenfacing the front of the BSS (refer to Figure 7.1 on page 104). Ina single base station system, fit the reciter and PA into the positionsallocated for “reciter 1” and “PA 1”. These positions also corre-spond to the layout of the controls on the control panel (refer toFigure 3.1 on page 28).8.3 Applying Power1. Before turning the TB8100 BSS on: check that the PMU is turned off (refer to Figure 3.6 on page 35) 12V PA only: check that the battery supply lead is disconnected(refer to “Replacing the Power Amplifier” on page 92) remove the front panel (refer to “Preliminary Disassembly” onpage 88) check that all looms and cables at the front and rear of the BSS arefitted correctly (refer to “Overview of Inputs and Outputs” onpage 103) check that all connectors are secure refit the front panel - ensure it is fitted correctly so that the fanswill operate if needed (refer to “Final Reassembly” on page 101).2. Apply power by turning on the PMU, or by connecting the batterysupply lead to the 12V PA.3. Check that the BSS powers up correctly: check that the cooling fans in the front panel turn on in thecorrect order after power-up: the PMU fan will run first, followedby the PA fan; each fan will run for about five seconds and thenswitch off (note that the PMU fan is not fitted to a 12V PA BSS) check that the power and microphone channel LEDs on thestandard control panel turn on after about five seconds, and allother LEDs remain off (refer to “Control Panel” on page 28) at this point you can also safely press the speaker and microphonechannel buttons and check that they are operating correctly.1. This feature will be available in a future release.
