Overview

Firecom Wireless Base Stations support the RF connections of Firecom wireless

communication systems. The Base Station supports full duplex, conference call

like digital communication for up to five Firecom DECT7 Wireless Headsets.

Radio PTT capable Headsets can be set up to transmit on a mobile radio via a

Firecom Digital Intercom. For installations which need a greater number of

users, Broadcast mode supports up to 100 users. Broadcast users share

connections to take turns talking with the group.

Firecom DECT7 wireless, operating on the 1.9GHz band provides secure,

interference-free, full-duplex communication. Wireless Headsets have a

wideband connection of up to 7kHz. This gives a line-of-sight range of up to

1,600 feet. With internal and external antennas, the Wireless Base Station

configures itself for the best reception. Multiple Wireless Base Stations and

Intercoms can be combined to support up to 60 users in a single audio

network. USB programming allows complete customization.

Features

USB Programmable

Using its USB port, a Base Station can be configured using a Windows PC.

Features may be customized and saved. Refer to the Sonetics Headset Software

for details.

Wireless DECT7 Communications

The Base Station features wireless DECT7, enabling conference call-like full

duplex communication. The Firecom wireless DECT7 Base Station will connect

with Firecom Wireless Headsets and Belt Packs. DECT7 networks have up to

1600ft line-of-sight range in Region 1 (US) and up to 800 meters in Region 2

(EU). DECT7 ensures interference free, digitally encrypted communications for

all parties.

Backwards Compatibility

The Firecom Wireless Base is backwards compatible with the Firecom first

generation wireless DECT and DECT6 headsets, with minimal loss in

functionality.

Wide Band Audio

The Wireless DECT7 communications are transmitted in a high definition wide

band audio format. This gives greater clarity of voice, and allows for integration

with voice activated control systems. It can be switched to narrow band audio

when necessary.

Dual Antenna Design

The Base Station has internal and external antennas for diversity switching to

lock onto the best signal. This allows the installer to place the Wireless Base

Station and antenna in different locations for system optimization in custom

installations.

Multi-Channel System

The Wireless Base Station can be configured for multiple channels. These can

be remotely selected by paired Wireless Headsets.

Broadcast Only Mode

The Headset may be paired into a listen only mode of operation, reducing

power consumption considerably. This also allows many more headsets to be

connected to a Wireless Base Station simultaneously. Pressing the Radio PTT

button allows the headset to momentarily talk on any available slot. A tone will

let the user know when they can talk. After talking, there will be a slight delay

when other users cannot be heard.

Mounting

The Wireless Base Station is designed to mount on a variety of surfaces. The

unit includes internal and external antennas. Consideration must be given to

antenna location to optimize performance.

WARNING: Do not locate the Wireless Base Station within 4” of any

metal.

If the Wireless Base Station must be located in a non-optimal location, use an

external accessory remote antenna.

Option 1: Window Glue Mount

1. Remove duck antenna.

2. Clean the location where the wireless base will be installed.

3. Remove the protective backing from the 3M double-sided tape on the

bottom of the wireless base.

4. Press firmly to the window.

Option 2: Fixed mount with Feet

1. Remove one of the screws on the bottom of the Base Station.

2. Place a mounting foot, and attach it using a replacement screw.

3. Repeat for the other three screws.

4. Mount the Wireless Base Station using the mounting feet.

5. Position antenna and use antenna mount to secure it. Alternatively, use a

remote antenna.

Option 3: Desk

1. Place on Desk.

2. Orient the external duck antenna vertically or use a remote antenna.

5 | P a g e

Antennas

An external antenna can provide a performance increase in some locations, and

affords greater installation flexibility.

To optimize performance:

1. Position the antenna at least 12 inches from any other antenna, metal,

electrical power, radio equipment, or obstructions.

2. Choose a location in the center of the vehicle’s roof (if mounting

outside).

WARNING: For FCC and other Radio Frequency regulatory compliance,

use only Sonetics approved wireless antennas.

Duck Antenna

Always position the Duck antenna at 90 degrees from the internal antenna. The

internal antenna is shown below.

The duck antenna needs to be supported when used in a vehicle or any

environment when the Wireless Base Station may be subjected to vibration.

6 | P a g e

Accessory Antennas

Sonetics has accessory antennas for temporary and permanent installation on

the exterior of a vehicle or building. To ensure the best system performance,

external antennas must not be mounted inside metal enclosures.

Magnet Mount Antenna

This antenna is designed for non-permanent installations on metallic surfaces.

1. Temporarily mark the center of the vehicle’s roof or trunk. Centering the

antenna on a flat metal area will improve ground plane and increase range.

2. Clean the marked area with rubbing alcohol or other non-corrosive cleaner

to prepare the surface. Let it dry completely.

3. Cut a round piece of felt the same size as the bottom of the magnet mount

and place it on your center mark. Set the magnetic antenna on top of the

felt to protect to the vehicle’s paint from scratches. Use of a felt patch will

slightly reduce the strength of the magnet. Make sure the coaxial cable is

pointed toward where it will enter the vehicle.

4. Open the hood or the trunk. Route the cable through a body panel gap to

get to the base station location.

5. Connect the cable to the antenna connector on your Wireless Base Station.

Do not over tighten the antenna! Finger tight plus 1/8th a turn is sufficient.

Permanent Mount Antenna

This antenna is designed for permanent installation. Have a qualified radio

installer perform the installation.

7 | P a g e

Power

The Wireless Base Station can be powered from the DC Jack or directly from a

Digital intercom. The unit will automatically power on when power is applied.

WARNING: Use only one power option to prevent ground loops.

Option 1: DC Jack Power

Wall Adapter Charging

Only charge the base station using the supplied 12VDC regulated wall adapter.

WARNING: Use only approved wall adaptors.

Vehicle Charging

Connect the BLACK wire with WHITE dashes to +12V and the BLACK wire to

chassis ground. Install the fuse no further than 18" from the battery.

WARNING: Only replace fuse with the same type, 0.5A AGU.

WARNING: Voltages exceeding the headset charging specification will

damage the headset.
