tone. The blue status LED on both units will flash momentarily and then go solid

once they’re connected.

PTT-W1A (primary unit)

Pairing a new PTT-W1A handset to a gateway cradle

Each Beam Wireless Push-To-Talk handset is uniquely connected to a specific

gateway cradle in the factory. This ensures that all communications between the

two units are secure and cannot be compromised or interfered with by a third

party. In the event of a Wireless PTT handset being lost, it can be permanently

disconnected from the gateway cradle by connecting with a new replacement

unit.

How to pair:

1. Switch ON the DriveDOCK Extreme and make sure that the PTT-W1A

gateway cradle and handset are turned ON.

2. Hold the Wireless PTT handset while pressing both the blue volume controls

until the blue LED flashes and you hear it beep, after 5-8 seconds. With

the Gateway cradle and PTT handset switched on, hold the Wireless PTT

handset while pressing both the blue volume controls until the blue LED

flashes and you hear it beep, after 5-8 seconds.

3. Place the Wireless PTT handset back into the gateway cradle. After a few

seconds the Wireless PTT handset will sound a confirmation two-tone and

paring has completed.

4. LED will be a solid blue once paired.

Find Me™ Feature

The Wireless PTT handset Find Me™ feature allows a misplaced/lost handset or its

user to be audibly located by sounding a loud continuous alert tone through the

Wireless PTT handset.

To activate, press the gateway function button twice within 1-second. the loud alert

tone will immediately start to sound. It can be deactivated by the user momentarily

pressing the Wireless PTT button on the handset or the function button on the

gateway cradle.

Optional Accessory: Wireless PTT100A (Secondary unit)

Pairing a PTT100A to the PTT-W1A gateway cradle

The Wireless PTT100A is an optional accessory. Using the Y-connector included

in the kit, the PTT100A Wireless handset must be paired to the primary PTT-W1A

gateway cradle to enable the dual PTT configuration (see image).

How to pair:

1. Switch ON the DriveDOCK Extreme and make sure that the PTT-W1A

gateway cradle and PTT100A handset is turned ON.

2. Remove the primary Wireless PTT-W1A handset from the gateway cradle.

3. Hold the secondary Wireless PTT-W1A handset while pressing both the

blue volume controls for 5-8 seconds, until the blue LED flashes and you

hear it beep.

4. Place the Wireless PTT100A handset back into the PTT-W1A gateway

cradle and after a few seconds the Wireless PTT100A handset will sound a

confirmation two-tone and pairing has completed.

5. LED will be a solid blue once paired.

NOTE:

PTT100A charging cradle grey button only acts as an ON/OFF button. Find Me™

feature is only available via the PTT-W1A Handset and when triggered on the

PTT-W1A an alert will sound on both the PTT100A and PTT-W1A handsets.

Talkaround

Talkaround allows users to converse amongst the Wireless PTT handsets connected

to the main gateway cradle without their audio being transmitted over the satellite

network. It is activated by pressing the ‘grey’ button on top of the Wireless PTT

handset.

Volume Control

When you first activate the unit you should first ensure your handset volume is

set to a comfortable listening level. You may then adjust the Wireless PTT Handset

volume by pressing the two left volume buttons to decrease. There are 5 listening

levels. The minimum level is not zero but is designed so you can still quietly hear

radio traffic and not inadvertently turn off the audio.

Transmitting/Receiving

Use the handset like any two-way radio speaker microphone. i.e. press the PTT

button to talk and release to listen. A short talk permit tone sequence will sound

when activated. Speak with a normal strong clear voice about 3-5cm (2”) from the

microphone port. Too hard or too soft will degrade the clarity of transmission.

NOTE: When the Wireless Handset is in the cradle, all functionality is disabled

and will switch to charging mode. To make or receive calls, the user must take the

Wireless PTT Handset out of the cradle. If in use in a vehicle, please ensure to clip

the handset to your shirt for safety.

Out of Range Indication

The Wireless PTT Handset provides the user with audible feedback should the user

move out of range from their vehicle. If you walk out of range the red status LED will

flash. If you then push the PTT an alert tone will sound to let you know your call is

not getting through. Depending on your location, you may find you need to walk

back about 10 meters closer to your vehicle to re-connect.

Talk Permit Tone

The Wireless PTT Handset provides talk permit tones so users know when to start

speaking so that words are not lost at the start of a transmission. If the channel

is busy, no channel grant or you are out of range, the user will hear the Wireless

Handset talk permit tones followed by the radio BUSY or Out of Range tone.
