hardware is user supplied.
C. Attach the housing to the base plate.
2. Change the angle of the Transmitter by adjusting
the position of the base.
3. Con nect the Antenna and point upward (vertical).
4. Plug in the AC Power Cord into the Adapter.
5. Plug the Adapter into the Transmitter.
6. Plug the AC Power Cord into a 120VAC outlet.
7. When powered and ready, the Transmitter display
will show “Enter Pager #” and the PWR Light will be ON.
Remote Keypad Connection And Operation (Optional Equipment):
1. Attach one end of the 25ft RS232 Cable to the Transmitter and the other to the
Null Modem Adapter on the Remote Keypad.
2. Plug the Adapter into the Remote Keypad.
3. Plug the Adapter into the Transmitter.
4. Connect all cables and the Antenna before applying power to the Transmitter
and Remote Keypad.

Range Testing the Transmitter
1. Once installed and powered, the Transmitter will display “Enter Pager #”.
2. The red (PWR) light at the bottom of the Transmitter keypad will be ON.
3. Enter 9990# on the keypad.
4. T he Transmitter sends a page every 5-6 seconds to all Pagers placed in
Group 99 or Pager number 1 (factory defaults). See Dynamic Group for
additional information. Use Guest Pagers only, Wait Staff Pagers cannot be
used for range testing this Transmitter.
5. Pagers need to be fully charged or have fresh batteries installed.
6. Slowly walk the surrounding area with the Pager.
7. Check that the Pager continues to alert with a tone.
8. Cha nging the Transmitter location or moving surrounding objects may effect
range results.
9. If the Pager no longer alerts, walk back slowly
toward the Transmitter until the Pager’s alert
begins again. Mark this spot as the maximum
range of the Transmitter in this direction and
continue to check the remaining area.
10. Press any button on the keypad to end the
2601 Transmitter Phone System Connection And Operation (If Required):
range test.
Installation: Requires a dedicated analog telephone line which can “hear” the
tones from a push button telephone.
1. Connect the phone cord to the jack on the side of the Transmitter.
2. Plug the other end into an jack wired to a dedicated telephone (fax)
line.
3. If ‘continuous’ DTMF tone is available, change Transmitter settings:

Transmitter Jack
A. For ‘continuous’ DTMF enter * # 577.
B. For ‘short burst’ DTMF enter * # 576 (factory default).
Ignore the display screen during this procedure.
Paging a Numeric Pager using the telephone:
1. Pick up the phone and listen for the dial tone.
2. Dial the phone number that has been assigned to the
Transmitter.
3. Listen for a beep from the telephone that confirms the
Transmitter is ready.

Group Paging using the telephone: Group information can be preprogrammed
into the Pagers at your Distributor’s site or JTECH. “Dynamic” Groups
can be programmed by the user. See “Add a Pager to a
Dynamic Group” on page 14 for more information.
1. Pick up the telephone and listen for the dial tone.
2. Dial the telephone number that has been assigned to
the Transmitter.
3. Listen for a beep that confirms the Transmitter is ready.
4. Within 8-10 seconds, use the telephone keypad:
a. Press the * key.
b. Enter the Group number (1-99) to page. Also see “Dynamic Group ”
programming for more information.
c. Press the * key.
d. Enter a numeric message, if desired (16 digits maximum).
e. Press the # key to send the page.
5. A beep heard on the phone verifies that the message was sent.
6. Hang up the telephone.
Programming For The RS232 Interface: To communicate with
the Transmitter, the computer software must send RS232 1200
baud message information using the following protocol.
RS232 DB9 Pin Identification:
Pin 2 = Transmit Data from Transmitter to Host (Attached to Line
Driver Transmit Side).
Pin 3 = Receive Data from Host to Transmitter (Attached to Line
Driver Receive Side).
Pin 5 = Signal Ground.
Pin 7 = Request to Send Line from Host to Transmitter (Attached to
Line Driver Receive Side).
Pin 8 = Clear to Send Line from Transmitter to Host (Attached to Line Driver Transmit
Side) .
Pins 1, 4,6 and 9 are not used.

RS232 Baud Rate And Settings
1200,N,8,1 (1200 Baud, No Parity, 8 Data Bits, 1 Stop Bit).
RS232 Handshaking-Request To Send (RTS) - Clear To Send (CTS)
The Transmitter uses CTS to allow data out of the Host output buffer.
The Transmitter does not monitor RTS.
The Transmitter requires the host to stop sending data immediately, when
CTS signal switches from high to low. Incoming data is not monitored while
CTS signal is low.
High-speed serial port drivers may continue to send data after CTS signal is
switched to low. This condition causes data to be lost. Serial port drivers
having settings for the amount of buffered data ,should be set to 0.
7 Digit Message Format: Contains six parts:
1. Preamble (3 bytes) 4. Separator (1 byte)
2. Function Bit (1 byte) 5. Pager Message (120 bytes max)
3. Cap Code (7 bytes) 6. Terminator (1 byte)
Preamble: Is a 3 character hex string that supplies start up synchronization
“padding” between messages IN, an output buffer, and information to the
Transmitter , that a message is coming. The Preamble is [Chr$(255)].
