To use RAV over a local area network (LAN), you need to know if the LAN uses Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or if you need a static IP address.
If the LAN uses DHCP, there is no need to make any network adjustments unless you want
to assign a static IP address.
If the LAN does not use DHCP, gather the following information prior to LAN setup:

•
•
The IP address to be assigned to the RAV

Loudspeakers
Mixer Console
You can adjust your Bose loudspeaker equalization, change volume levels and enable
ClearEffect in the Loudspeaker window. Equalization in RAV-Ware is similar to the bass and
treble adjustments on a stereo. Increasing or decreasing the low, mid and high
frequencies and levels allows you to customize loudspeaker audio and provide the optimal
listening experience for your users.
The Mixer Console allows you to create audio mixes for the different outputs, adjust volume
levels and view the output meters.The audio inputs are shown along the left side of the
window and the audio outputs are along the top.
To open the Mixer Console

•
Click the Loudspeaker icon in the configuration screen.

each output mix. A check mark indi-
cates the audio will be included in the
output mix.
To enable ClearEffect
•
Click the ClearEffect Off/On button.The
indicator will turn green when ClearEffect is
enabled.
Note: RAV-Ware does not give options
to route microphone audio to the
loudspeakers, the line input to the line
output or the telephone receive to the
telephone transmit. This prevents audio
looping.
When ClearEffect is enabled, it causes the
audio coming from the telephone line to emu-
late wideband audio. It does this by adding high
and low frequencies to the audio signal, creat-
ing a fuller sound.

Maintenance
Controller doesn't communicate with the mixer
Unplug all components before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a soft,
damp cloth to clean the microphones and controller.
The RF Controller performs best when the RAV mixer is positioned within line of sight and
with the antenna pointed up. Check the signal strength indicator in all areas of the room
where the controller will be used.The signal strength indicator is on the LCD screen and the
maximum number of bars is four.
If storing for an extended period of time, remove the batteries.
For optimal RF connectivity, make sure the signal strength measures two or four bars in all
operating locations.You can also use the RF Radio Test function on the Controller for a
more detailed signal strength measurement. Refer to page 59 for more information.

To improve signal strength
• Verify that the mixer is within line of site
Muffled reception
• Install mixer in the top space of the equipment rack
• Ensure the antenna is pointed up
Do not move the microphone pods while on a call. Move any items that might be blocking the
microphones. Move closer to the microphones.
• Do not install the mixer in a metal cabinet
Far-end party cannot hear
Check the connections of all audio inputs. Check the Audio Mixer in RAV-Ware to make sure
the correct audio paths are selected. Adjust the volume of the audio outputs.
You can also purchase a remote mount antenna to improve the signal strength when the
mixer is located in a different room or in an enclosed metal cabinet.

Cannot assign a speed dial number
Adjust the volume. Watch the meters. Make sure the loudest audio causes the meters to just

Be sure equipment is placed correctly for the best sound performance. Refer to Chapter 1 for

Example
A command to disable automatic gain control for Mic 2 on a RAV 600 device “0” will have
the command line: #50 AGC 2 M 0. In this command line, 5=RAV 600, 0=unit 0,
AGC=command, 2=channel, M=Mic Input group, 0=off state. If a command calls for a
“null” value, leave a blank in the command line. For example, “#50 AGC 2 M” will return
the current AGC state of Mic 2 on device 50.

pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules and Industry Canada ICES-003.These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment.This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and,
if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his/her own
expense.
No user-serviceable parts are contained in this product. If damage or malfunction occurs, contact

Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission,
public service commission or corporation commission for information.This equipment cannot be used
on telephone company provided coin service.
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the instal-
lation of this equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what
will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Electrical Safety Advisory
This equipment uses AC power which can subjected to electrical surges, typically lightning transients
which are very destructive to customer terminal equipment connected to AC power sources.The
warranty for this equipment does not cover damage caused by electrical surge or lightning transients.
To reduce the risk of this equipment becoming damaged it is suggested that the customer consider
installing a surge arrestor.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by ClearOne Communications could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
FCC Part 68 Compliance
US:FBIBR00BRAV Ringer Equivalence Number (REN): 0.0B(ac)
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules Requirements adopted by ACTA. On the
mixer unit of this equipment contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this information must be provided to your telephone company.
IC Compliance
IC: 1970 A-RAV
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN): 0.0B(ac)
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to the telephone line.
Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an
incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0).To be cer-
tain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs,
contact the telephone company to obtain the maximum RENs for the calling area.The REN for this
product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX.The digits repre-
sented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g. 03 is a REN of 0.3).
NOTICE:The term "IC" before the certification/registration number signifies that Industry of Canada
technical specifications were met.
This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective
operational and safety requirements.The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate
to the user's satisfaction.
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to the telephone line.
Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incom-
ing call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0).To be certain of
the number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact
