3.5 Operating Procedures
With the RAY230 and RAY230E, all operations are made on the Handset
except turning ON/OFF the main power supply and adjusting the sound
volume of the External Speaker.
3.5.1 Turning ON/ OFF the Power Supply
To power on the RAY230/E:
1. Press the POWER switch on the base station transceiver (main unit). A
light illuminates the button when power is ON. The main unit and the
handset(s) are placed in a standby power condition, drawing about
150 mA. The radio circuitry does not yet have power.
2. Press the 16/9/POWER key (RAY230) or 16/POWER key (RAY230E) on
any handset. The full system is then powered ON.
You must press POWER on the base station and the 16/9/POWER or
16/POWER button on the handset to fully power on the radio.
Notes:
• If the main power supply switch is OFF, the handsets cannot power the
system ON.
• If the main power supply switch is ON and multiple handsets are
connected, pressing the FUNC and 16/9/POWER key (16/POWER key
for the RAY230E) from one handset will fully power ON the system and
all handsets.
To power off the RAY230/E:
1. Press the FUNC key followed by the 16/9/POWER key (RAY230) or 16/
POWER key (RAY230E) on any handset. The main unit and all
handset(s) return to the standby condition.
2. Press the POWER switch on the base station transceiver. The light
illuminating the button goes out. Full system power is OFF.
Note: If multiple handsets are connected, initiating power OFF from one
handset will cause all the handsets (and main unit) to enter the standby
condition.
When ship’s power is removed then returned to the base station, the
unit returns to its last state. For example, if the POWER switch was left
in the ON position, the base station will be ON when power is restored.
You must still press the 16/ POWER or 16/9/POWER button to power
on the handsets.
