Quick Start Guide

Z-SIGN

Overview

Thank you for purchasing the AtlasIED Z-SIGN - Wireless Privacy Transceiver. This quick start guide describes how to connect the Z-SIGN to a Z Series

High Definition Acoustical System. The Z-SIGN can be used in three different operations. The most common use for the Z-SIGN is to be used as a

wireless switch to activate the Speech Privacy Enhancement mode in a Z Series unit. This application also serves as visual indicator to show when

enhanced speech privacy is engaged. The Z-SIGN can also be used strictly as a visual indicator with the activation button being disabled. In this

application, it is common for the Z-SIGN to be used as a second or third visual indicator in a meeting room. Finally, the Z-SIGN can be used as a data

transmission / receiving conduit between a mobile device and a Z Series unit (see the example below). The Z-SIGN incorporates BLE

communication

technology for pairing to a mobile device for short distance data communication (not streaming audio), and uses 915MHz ISM Band to transmit longer

distances to a Z Series unit. The Z Series mobile App is needed for this function. Using the mobile App with a Z-SIGN allows for mobile control of the

Z Series unit and status of the Z system. For more information on the Z Series App, refer to the App User Guide.

Basic Set-up and Pairing for Installation Note: This Guide assumes that the Z2 or Z4 unit has already been installed and is working. Before pairing, reset the Z-SIGN to Factory Default if it has been previously paired to another Z Series System. 1. Remove the battery tab (#6) at upper left of battery door (#7) or if the batteries are not installed remove the battery door (#7). Open the battery door (#7) and insert batteries. It is recommended to charge the batteries for 1 - 2 hours before use.

Installation Out of Range Indication 1. The connection range of the Z-SIGN to the Z Series unit is approximately 100' through a few typical office walls and doors. This varies based on construction material types such as concrete and steel. 2. After pairing, move the Z-SIGN to the desired mounting location and test the Privacy Activation button (#3). The “Enhanced Privacy in Use” will illuminate green while the Z-SIGN attempts to connect to the Z Series unit.

Operating Modes - (from Z-SIGN FW V1.46) The Z-SIGN has 3 Operating modes that help extend battery life based on the application it will be used in. These can be set using the Z-SIGN Settings buttons or with the Z Series App (see “Setting the Operating Modes” below). ©2019 Atlas Sound LP.

Charging the Batteries 1. The Z-SIGN comes with factory installed rechargeable batteries and a charging power supply. The power supply is a 100V – 240V AC to 5V 1A DC supply with a Micro USB connector to mate with the Z-SIGN connector. Most 5V chargers with a Micro USB will charge the Z-SIGN batteries. Note: If the batteries go dead before they are recharged, the Z-SIGN will not lose its pairing to the Z Series unit. 2. Plug the charging power supply into an AC outlet and the Micro USB into the Z-SIGN.
