Section 1 - Introduction
General Description
The Telex Legacyä Series is a full duplex
(simultaneous talk and listen), multi-channel, wireless
intercom system. Legacy offers a complete solution
for 2 to 7 coaches per sideline, fast and easy set-up,
durable beltpacks, 64 bit audio encryption, and
professional grade headsets.
The main components of the Legacyä series consists
of the XO-1 beltpack and the XO-AP base station.
The XO-1 beltpack offers the user two separate audio
channels and the ability to communicate on both
channels at the same time. The user can talk and listen
on these channels or just turn off the talk button and
listen only. The beltpack uses an internal rechargeable
Li-Ion battery that will provide up to 8 hours of
uninterrupted operation.
The XO-AP base station can support up to seven XO-1
beltpacks. The base station provides a central relay
location which handles the audio traffic between
beltpacks. The built-in base station intelligence called
ClearScan™ automatically selects the best RF (Radio
Frequency) channel for communications on start-up.
The base station also uses an internal rechargeable
Li-Ion battery that will provide up to 10 hours of
uninterrupted operation.
System Features
• Easy base station and beltpack setup.
• Uses mature 2.4GHz IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN
Technology.
• Audio in the system is encrypted via a 64 bit DES
algorithm.
• Base station automatically selects the clearest RF
channel for the system, and sets the system on that
channel. No user intervention is needed.
• Easy to read base station LED display to indicate the
RF channel of the system.
• If desired, the user can select any one of the eleven
standard 802.11 channels for the system to operate
via a single button on the XO-AP front panel.
• Durable, water resistant, ABS, beltpack cases.
• Dependable, rechargeable, wide temperature range,
Li-Ion batteries.
• Low battery indications on the beltpack and base
station.
• Base station can be powered from external AC or
internal battery.
