1. GENERAL INFORMATION

These installation instructions cover the following types of paging
receivers:

These high quality, lightweight Generation III paging receivers are
used in DP 6000 Digital Paging Systems.

The receivers are individually identified by the allocation of call
numbers, which are programmed into the receiver. Each receiver
will respond to calls made specifically to its own call number or to
group calls. A group call is a single call which can be received by
more than one receiver holder.
When placed in a storage rack and being called, the receiver returns
an absent signal to the DP 6000 system.

The versions of the receiver described in these installation
instructions are:

- the bleep only version producing a bleep and flash signal when it
is called.

- the display version producing both a bleep plus a flash signal and
digital information on the LCD.

Before using the receiver, it has to be programmed with the
necessary addresses and set to the system configuration.
The receiver can be programmed using the keyboard of the Control
Desk LBB 5800, Telephone Coupler LBB 5840/xx and the LBB 6000
Alpha-desk user editor (edit menu receives).

2. OPERATING CONTROLS AND DISPLAYS

2.1Operating Controls

2.1.1 ON/OFF/volume switch (fig.1B)

- position 0 = off
position I = on, with low bleep volume
position II = on, with high bleep volume

- When switching on, a single bleep is emitted and the personal
address is shown on the display (if present).

- With rechargeable batteries installed, the receiver is always
“switched on” (low bleep volume when switch position is 0).

- When disposable batteries are installed, the info memory is
erased when the receiver is switched off.

2.1.2 RECALL button (fig.1A)

Note: applies to display version only.

- The RECALL button can be used to scroll from normal call
address to the two group addresses and to scroll the 5 info
messages.

2.2 External contacts

The three contacts (fig.1C) are for charging and absent indication
when the receiver has been placed in the storage rack.
Left - common
Middle - absent
Right - charging and code

(Refer to LBB 6150 Installation Instruction 76).

2.3Bleep information

Note: applies to bleep and display version.
The receiver can be called with 7 bleep patterns in 2 different ways

(normal and “cricketed” = intermittent). Normal signals are for
single calls, the “cricketed” signals are for group calls. So 14 different
bleep signals (fig.2) and a silent call (only info) can be selected.
A LED on top of the receiver blinks in the same rhythm as the
bleep.

2.4Display information

Note: applies to display version only.
The LCD displays the address or numeric information.

- ADDRESS mode
The receiver is in this mode when it has been placed into the
storage rack, or when no call has yet been received after
switching on.
The receiver has 3 programmable addresses, 1 normal call
address and 2 group addresses. Use the RECALL button
repeatedly to scroll the 3 addresses and 2 info message
locations.
The number of horizontal bars in the first digit (fig.3A) indicates
the address level.
When a call is received, the receiver automatically enters the
info mode.

- INFO mode (5 deep info stack)
The last call remains on the display. A received call without info
code is shown on the display as 5 bars.
Use the RECALL button repeatedly to scroll the info messages
(fig.3B).

- When the receiver is placed in a storage rack, the receiver
switches to the address mode where only two message
locations are available.

When switching off the receiver the info memory is erased.

3. BATTERIES

3.1 General

1. Battery types
NEVER leave a dead battery in the receiver.

Two LR1 size batteries must be used in the receiver.
Low battery voltage is indicated by a short bleep every 17 seconds;
after 4 hours the receiver is switched off with a high volume bleep.
The receiver also contains a back-up battery to supply the receiver
memory when exchanging the main batteries.

2. Battery saving

When the battery saving mode has been enabled (see 4.1.3) the
receiver is switched on/off by means of the 5F5F pre-amble string.
Battery saving is not possible with the older encoder types LBB
59xx. The encoders LBB 5900/10 and LBB 5840/xx allow battery
saving only via CCC2 and not the 5F5F mode. For more detailed
explanation on the battery saving principle refer to Installation
Instruction 67 par.2.4.2.

3.2 Replacing the batteries

WARNING:

A sticker “Do not open in hazardous area” on the housing
(fig.4C) warns you that the receiver is of the intrinsically safe type.
In this case the batteries may only be replaced outside the
hazardous area and the battery cover must be locked with the
delivered special key at the battery cover bottom (fig.4D).

1. Opening the battery cover

- Switch off the receiver.

- Slide the battery cover lock (fig.4B) open in the direction of the
clip.

- Slide the battery cover (fig.4A) downwards.

- Remove the 2 batteries (fig.4E).

2. Battery type select switch

Battery type adaptation is done by means of the preset slide switch
(fig.5E) in the battery compartment:

- middle position “N” when disposable batteries are used

- down position “CH” when rechargeable batteries are used

- top position “P” for programming mode only.

3. Replacing the batteries

- Place the 2 new batteries in the correct position.
If rechargeable batteries are used, be sure the batteries are
charged before using the receiver.

- Close and lock the battery cover.

4. Switching on

- Switch on the receiver.
A short single bleep is heard and, if programmed, the receiver is
ready for use.
