1.3 Features

1.3

The use

Licenses and application procedures are not required; the device can be used immediately on the day it was set up.

A flexible system can be set up, from a small-scale system using one Portable base WD-K10PBS or Base Station WD-

K10BS, to a large-scale system combining several base stations.

Up to 10 sub units can be connected to a base station (base unit) at Normal Audio Quality, and up to 5 sub units can be

connected at High Audio Quality.

The default Quality Mode during calls is Normal Audio Quality. However, for clearer and crispier calls, you can select High Audio Quality.

Similar for 2 or more base stations in a baselink system.

Simultaneous bidirectional calls are possible.

The operation and usage environment of a sub unit may be limited when using it in Listening Mode configured for dedicated

receiving. However, more sub units can be operated with few base stations.

Press the [PTT] key on the transceiver to call immediately at any time, without any complicated operations.

Group calls can be made for up to 4 groups, according to different hierarchy and business use. You can contact all

members of the group simultaneously or talk with other groups even in Grouping operation.

Use a clip microphone for clearer calls with less noise even under a noisy environment.

This system allows external audio signals to be input to intercom calls, and intercom calls to be output to audio signal

monitor.

The Portable base WD-K10PBS can be used continuously for 25 hours in the Transceiver Mode, and for 8 hours in the

Base Station Mode (when 4 transceivers are connected).

The Transceiver WD-K10TR can be used continuously for 20 hours.

Features

of 1.9 GHz band digital communication technology allows for crisp and clear calls to be made in confidentiality.

1 INTRODUCTION

1.4 Precautions

1.4

As far as possible, use the transceiver and portable base at a distance away from external wireless systems.

An error due to radio wave interference may occur if they are too near.

Using earphones in a dry environment may cause tingling sensation in the ears. This is due to the static charges

accumulated on the body and the connected device, not malfunctioning of the earphones. This is less likely to occur on someone wearing clothes made from natural materials or preventive actions taken to prevent the accumulation of static charges on the clothes.

1.5

The Portable base/Transceiver has been tested in-house and verified of its IP67 dust resistant/water resistant

performance at the design phase. However, the dust resistant/water resistant performance is not guaranteed for all situations in actual use.

IP67 (Dust resistant/water resistant): No detrimental effects on device after submerging device in fresh water/still water of 1 m deep without additional nonspecified pressure and retrieving it 30 minutes later.

Under normal usage, the device can maintain its IP67 dust resistant/water resistant performance for one year. (When

terminal cover, battery cover is installed)

We do not have a special maintenance program to maintain the dust resistant/water resistant performance.

Align the terminal cover and battery cover to the attaching position before securing. When attaching the covers, ensure

that no fine foreign material (including fiber, hair and sand) is caught in between.

Do not open or close the terminal cover or battery cover when the transceiver is wet.

the

supplied microphone plug mounting bracket is used when connecting the specified option to the speaker/microphone

terminal, the transceiver meets the IP67 dust resistant/water resistant specifications. The dust resistant/water resistant performance of the option varies with each optional product. If an option other than the above is connected, the transceiver is not dust resistant/water resistant.

The supplied charger and AC adapter is not water resistant. Do not use the transceiver when it is wet.

If an impact is exerted on the transceiver, it may affect its dust resistant/water resistant performance.

Using the transceiver near electronic products such as TVs, radios, and PCs may subject it to radio frequency interference

or cause radio frequency interference to other devices. Use the transceiver away from these devices.

Do not subject the transceiver or submerge it in soapy water, detergents, seasonings, juice, salt water, or oil. Do not

submerge or subject the transceiver to hot or cold water.

Precautions for Proper Use

Portable base/Transceiver

Do not drop or knock these devices. These are precision equipment that may malfunction if subject to strong impact.

Clip Microphone with Earphone, Headset

Do not use a non-compatible clip microphone with earphone, headset. This may cause malfunction.

When pulling off the clip microphone, earphone, or headset microphone adapter, do not pull the cable. This may cause

the cable to snap. Be sure to hold the plug and pull.

Do not touch the metal part of the plug. This may cause poor contact. If the device is dirty, wipe with a dry clean cloth.

When connecting the clip microphone with earphone or headset, be sure to turn off the power of the sub unit. Making a

connection while the device is turned on activates the protector which disables operation on the sub unit. The clip microphone with earphone or headset is also disabled.

Insert the plug of the clip microphone with earphone straight in.

System

As this DECT intercom system uses wireless communication, noise may occur and calls may be cut off if the system is

moved to a place unreachable by radio waves.

The call distance differs for a Portable base WD-K10PBS and Transceiver WD-K10TR.

And the communication distance differs depending on the usage environment and conditions. For details, please consult the authorized dealer.

Do not place the device near heating appliances or at locations subject to direct sunlight for long hours.

occurs, adjust the speaker volume or change the direction and position of the microphone.

Portable base/Transceiver Battery (Rechargeable Battery)

Do not place the battery at locations subject to high temperature (such as direct sunlight). This will cause leaking or

shorten the lifespan.

The guideline for the number of battery recharging times is as follows.

Model Recharging Times

Portable base WD-K10PBS Approx. 500 times

Transceiver WD-K10TR Approx. 500 times

As the number of recharging times may change drastically depending on the usage temperature, usage time, and

remaining capacity at the time of recharging, this guideline is not a guarantee.

Performing PMR Link

This system allows audio signals in group calls to be transmitted to groups of external wireless systems by using a transceiver connection cable

WD-RC100 to connect the Transceiver WD-K10TR and Portable base WD-K10PBS to specified two-way

radios.

Overview of PMR Link

The following models of two-way radios can be connected to external systems using PMR Link.

Target transceivers: KENWOOD two-way radios

Models using WD-RC100: NX-200G, NX-300G, NX-5200, NX-5300

Models using WD-RC50: NX-220, NX-320, TK-2000, TK-3000, TK-2302, TK-3302, TK-3401D, TK-3501

Contents of mixed calls within the sending area can be heard at terminals in the receiving area through two-way radios.

However, as this is an alternate communication, calls within the receiving area cannot be heard during transmission at the sending area.

Simultaneous calls can be made within each area.

Precautions

In order to perform PMR Link, it is necessary to connect the transceiver connection cable WD-RC100 ( on page 30) and

change system setup. For details on the system setup, please consult the authorized dealer or installer.

As far as possible, use the transceiver and portable base at a distance away from external wireless systems. An error

due to radio wave interference may occur if they are too near.

If the Background Noise function is set to “ON” when connecting WD-K10PBS to a transceiver, turn the volume knob of

the transceiver to the 3 o’clock position. If the knob is not turned properly, the transceiver will remain in the mute status and audio signals will not be output.

Check that the problem is genuine before requesting for repairs.

Problem Cause Solution

The unit is prone to entering service noncoverage area (out of range).

A beeping sound is heard and All Call or Broadcast is unavailable even when the [All Call] key or [Broadcast] key is pressed.

Calls are cut off during use and noise can be heard.

A “buu” noise may occur from the earphone of the sub unit.

When a sub unit is moved from the connection area to a service non-coverage area (out of range), it reconnects to the base station only when it is very near to the base station after returning to the connection area.

Calls in all groups can be heard.

Troubleshooting

The surrounding environment and operation status affect the field intensity of signals emitted from the device. Therefore, it is easy to enter a service non-coverage area (out of range).

Only one person can use All Call or broadcast to the same output destination at the same time.

Depending on the radio wave status, radio waves not reach the unit and other base stations are being searched. If a base station cannot be found, or if there are no empty channels in the base station, the unit continues to search for a connectable base station and during that time, communication is unavailable (Status LED lights up in red).

This system uses digital wireless communication of 1.9 GHz band. When there is a nearby device in which noise signals to audio signals may change the signal to noise instead.

Settings have been made so that the sub unit only connects when radio reception is strong. This is to prevent frequent changing of connection with base stations, and connection with faraway base stations of weak reception.

If the unit is near a base station and yet it cannot communicate, please check with the authorized dealer. You can also minimize the out of range tone at the default setting. For details, please consult the authorized dealer.

Use the unit away from noise sources such as computers, monitors, and discharge-type air purifiers. Or move the base station installation site to a location away from these equipment. Noise may occur if the unit is too close to a base station (within 2 m). Move the base station installation site or use the unit away from a base station.
