SIG / OL green if an audio signal is detected, red light during signal overload.
Analog Audio Connection
Removable Locking Tab
Custom Label Slot
POWER green when the RAD is receiving power, red if the voltage is low.
COMM green if the communications pair is detected, red if there is a problem. AUDIO Rx green when the pair for receiving audio is OK, red if there is a problem.
AUDIO Tx green when the pair for transmitting audio is OK, red if there is a problem.
Light sensor detects the light in the room and dims or brightens all LEDs appropriately.
All four LEDs ashing green during Locate mode in Mongoose Tracker to verify location.
All four LEDs ashing red indicate a mismatch between the RAD and the conguration.
Figure 7: Remote Audio Device
1 Label – a location on the RAD for inserting a custom label of the input, output or channel number
associated with the corresponding jack. See "Generating RAD Labels" on page 34 for details.
2 XLR tab – push tab for releasing a microphone cable. If you wish to remove this tab, see page 25.
3 Input/Output jacks – the actual jacks to which you connect the appropriate audio device(s). e jacks
differ based on the RAD model.
4 SIG/OL LED – displays a green light when an audio signal is detected, displays a red light when the
channel is experiencing a signal overload.
5 Power LED – displays solid green when the RAD is receiving power, turns solid red if the voltage
received is lower that expected.
6 Comm LED – displays solid green when the RAD detects the communication pair of wires and
communication is established between the Mongoose and RAD. e LED displays solid red if the
RAD cannot communicate with the Mongoose, likely due to a communication pair wiring problem.
7 Audio Rx LED – displays solid green when the RAD detects that the pair of wires for receiving audio
is functioning properly, regardless of the RAD model, displays red if there is a problem.
8 Audio Tx LED – displays solid green if communication with the Mongoose has been established and
the Mongoose informs the RAD of the Tx Audio lock. e light displays solid red, if there is a problem
communicating with the RAD or if there is a problem with the Audio Tx pair of wires.
9 Light sensor – detects the amount of light in the room and dims or brightens all LEDs appropriately.
If the room where the RAD is installed is very dark and the “Allow LEDs to turn off” option is enabled,
the LEDs will go completely dark. If this is the case and you need to see the lights, simply shine a light
(from a flashlight or some other source) on the RAD. Note that you cannot permanently turn these
lights off manually. is is by design. We wanted to avoid the possibility of anyone thinking the RAD
is defective (because the power light is off ) and attempting to replace it unnecessarily.
