RS-601 BELTPACK 1

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing this product. Clear-Com designed the 600

series of beltpacks to meet the needs of all beltpack users, from

beginners to experienced professionals. For advanced users, the 600

series provides the most advanced level of functioning available.

RS-600 SERIES BELTPACKS

All RS-600 series beltpacks offer the following features:

• Rugged, compact design

• Full compatibility with all existing Clear-Com party-line systems

• Four setup configurations that you can activate directly from the

beltpack

• Extra 2.5 mm cell-phone type headset jack

• Advanced setup options with V-Pack software

RS-601 BELTPACK

The RS-601 beltpack offers the following features:

• One intercom channel

• 3-pin female and male XLR connectors for ease of setup

• 4-pin male XLR to connect a headset

2 RS-601 BELTPACK

The RS-601 offers all the performance and durability of Clear-Com’s

world-standard beltpacks, plus TW compatibility. You can use the

RS-601 on a TW line (Audio on Channel B) without loading down

Channel A.

RS-601 BELTPACK 3

QUICK START

To start using your beltpack immediately:

1. Connect the appropriate line cables (3-pin XLR) from an

active intercom line to the beltpack.

2. Turn down the beltpack’s incoming volume with the

volume-control knob.

3. Plug in a headset equipped with a dynamic microphone to

the beltpack’s main headset jack.

The headset jack is labeled on the back of the beltpack.

4. To talk on the intercom line, press and hold the talk button.

Speak into the microphone in your headset.

Note: If you tap the talk button twice in quick succession,

the talk button locks to the “on” setting (“latches”) for

hands-free use. Press the talk button again to unlatch it.

5. Adjust the sidetone and incoming volume levels as you and

others on the intercom line speak at the anticipated levels for

the application.

6. To send a call signal, press the button labeled “call.”

OPERATING YOUR BELTPACK

An RS-601 beltpack works with all previous versions of Clear-Com

party-line stations and beltpacks. It is the first single-channel

Clear-Com beltpack that is compatible with Clear-Com TW

beltpacks.

This means that you can wire several beltpacks together in a “daisy-

chain” or “home-run” configuration on a TW line that includes

RS-502/522 TW beltpacks as well as other RS-600 series TW

beltpacks. While the audio on the RS-601 will always be from pin 3 of

the XLR connector (channel B), it will still pass the channel A audio

through on Pin 2.

The RS-601 is not recommended for use with RTS-TW systems as

the frequency response curves and audio levels are different.

Clear-Com’s RS-603 series beltpacks are compatible with RTS-TW

systems.
