Re: Wireless earpiece with XPR7550 & SL7550

Hi, I run a corp security team and we have been quoted the items below for an event. As I've never used the wireless versions before only the 3 wire kits, there doesn't seem to be a mic for this. Surely that is wrong but can anyone confirm that the Y adapter also has the mic as part of its features...

PMKN4147 pinout? (XPR2500/CM300d/CM200d)

I was wondering if the PMKN4147 USB-to-Mic-RJ45 contained any active components or if it's just a dumb cable like the ones for the older XPR's accy ports on the back.

Has anyone got a pinout? :)

Re: XPR 7550 FPP

There is no way to edit frequency other than CPS, that is why you have to PRE-program. So the help file for the current CPS ist just plain wrong?

Re: XPR 7550 FPP

Simply setting the FPP mode to "dealer" in the CPS does not work for the EMEA ones either. You can still only edit names, admit criteria and TOT per channel. Is there some special accessory or battery that has to be present or maybe a key combination that has to be entered in addition to t...

Could you post the Decoders that are set up for the Personality that is used on the Channel in question?
