Network cable isn’tplugged, or TX-BOX may bein DHCP client mode.Switch to DHCP server
5 - 2 ...Connecting the ACCESS POINT :
Connecting the ACCESS POINT to the RJ45 port enables both powering (PoE Power Over Ethernet), and connecting of the TX-BOX to the Digitear network.
DHCP Server : The DHCP Server distributes available IP addresses to other existing elements on the network.DHCP Client : The IP address is provided by the DHCP Server.
Page 8 of 21
User Guide TX-BOX5 - 3 ...Connecting a BELTPACK :
The connection will be achieved via the BELTPACK (refer BELTPACK User Guide) Once a BELTPACK is connected to the TX-BOX, it will display information about the BELTPACK (battery levels, network performance level ...), and the information "Assigned" will be visible on the corresponding channel. The TX-BOX accepts hosting eight BELTPACKs simultaneously.The BELTPACK will also transmit information from the INEAR, if there is at least one paired INEAR, and if it is turned on.
When you turn off a connected BELTPACK, its information will be saved, and during the next connection to the Digitear network, this BELTPACK will be directly connected to the channel. The saved information will be displayed in white.
In the case where the BELTPACK is connected to the TX-BOX, and this same BELTPACK is paired with an INEAR. Real-time information.
In this case, only the BELTPACK is connected to the Digitear network. No INEAR is connected.
5 - 4 ...Adjust the input gain:
The input gain is adjusted from the TX-BOX. To do this, select the channel whose input gain is to be adjusted, by pressing "Enter", the "Input Levels" menu will be opened.Adjust the input gain level by pressing the ‘+‘ and ‘-’ keys.

User Guide TX-BOX5 - 5 ...Testing your installation:
Once the installation is achieved, it is quite simple to test it. A 3.5mm jack input connected on the front panel of the TX-BOX enables you to listen to the sound that enters from the channel XLR input , or to transmit sound to the XLR output of the selected channel. This function is called "Monitor Channel".To select the Channel, simply access the "Input Levels" menu, then select the Channel and press "Enter". The channel elements will be displayed with a blue color frame.

5 - 6 ...USB ports utilization:
The TX-BOX is equipped with two USB2.0 ports, reserved for maintenance operations. They enable for example, the connection of a memory stick (for updates).
Page 10 of 21
User Guide TX-BOX
5 - 7 ...Updating the TX-BOX :
The update information will be sent by e-mail from the Overline development team or can be downloaded from the official website. This received email from the user will be attached with the necessary files for the update.You can also find all these updates on the site www.digitear.euIn order to install this update for the TX-BOX and the BELTPACK, just follow the procedure:
Step 1: A formatted memory stick in FAT 32 format must be used and it must also be named "DIGIUPDATE" written in uppercase. If one of the two conditions is not met, the update will fail. Step 2: Unzip the content of the archive attached to the mail into the memory stick.
Step 3: After the copy of the files is complete, remove the memory stick, and insert it into a USB port on the back of the TX-BOX.Step 4: Once the memory stick is connected to the TX-BOX, and first step procedures have been correctly initiated, a message will be displayed on the TX-BOX screen.

Increasing the latency time enables a more robust sound signal, but it increases the signal delay between the TX-BOX and the BELTPACK. Conversely, the lower the latency, the signal will be less robust.
Latency level:1 to 2 : Impossible utilization of the "Talk-Back" on the BELTPACK. 3 to 5 : Possible utilization of the "Talk-Back" on the BELTPACK.
