Getting Connected Telecom / Intercom Link ComPack also functions as a simple “no-frills” telecom link for your beltpack intercom system. ComPack will provide bi-directional audio on pin 3 of the male XLR jack to any industry standard intercom beltpack system. ComPack does not provide power over this XLR jack nor does it require power from the loop. Note: ComPack will not recognize a call signal generated by your intercom system and it will not provide one. 1.
FAQs 1. How do I select which telephone interface to use (analog phone line, PBX, or wireless)? Actually, all three connections are live all the time. Technically, you could connect to all three at once, but since there is no way to equalize levels, this “conference call” might not be the best quality connection. 2. Will ComPack work with any cell phone? ComPack has been tested with many popular brands and model phones that use the 3.5mm 4-conductor TRRS style headset.
FAQs 8. Can I connect ComPack to a powered beltpack line? Yes, the ComPack has a DC blocking cap so it will not be damaged if connected to a powered line, although DC power is not necessary for operation. You must switch the Male XLR Function switch to for proper operation. 9. I’ve lost the power supply for my ComPack. I have another power supply that fits from a different product. Can I use this instead? No! Never use a power supply other than the one that was supplied by your manufacturer.
