6.7 Adding group members
When a group name or “label” has been chosen the user may then “populate” that group.
Group members are drawn from the individual wireless beltpacks and individual wired devices
connected to the FS II Base station. A group created from these devices functions as a
partyline, in which all members of the group can communicate simultaneously with all other
members of the group. A standard partyline group may contain up to fifteen members and a
wireless partyline group may contain up to twenty eight members.
Note: Headsets cannot be added to a wireless partyline type group by this method.
6.7.1 To assign members to a group
1) From the MAIN menu, select GROUPS. The AVAILABLE GROUPS menu appears.
2) Select the group to which members are to be added. The PROGRAMMING
OPTIONS menu appears, as shown in Figure 6-15 Group programming options
menu.
Figure 6-15 Group programming options menu
3) Select MEMBERS from the menu.
The MEMBERS menu appears, as shown in Figure 6-16 Adding members to a group. On this
set of pages, all of the Base station wired ports appear (HDSTA through PRGRM, “headset A”
through “program”), followed by the labels for all twenty FS II beltpacks. The menu header
displays the number of members currently in the group out of a possible maximum of twelve
members e.g. 4/12 for four members.
Figure 6-16 Adding members to a group
4) Scroll through the pages of this list to find the desired members for the group. When
a desired member is highlighted, press the setup/enter encoder to select that
member. A box appears around it.
5) To de-select a member that has already been selected, highlight that member and
press the setup/enter encoder. Pressing the setup/enter encoder effectively works as
a toggle switch, first selecting the item by putting a box around it, and then de-
selecting it and removing the box.
