2. TECHNOLOGY RADIO FREQUENCY (aka Bluetooth) VS NEAR FIELD MAGNETIC INDUCTION

3. RADIO FREQUENCY Bluetooth or RF systems use antennas to generate and transmit electromagnetic energy away from a device, radiating into free space. This type of wireless transmission is referred to as far-field because the energy persists at distances far from the transmitter. In RF all transmission energy is designed to leave the transmitter, with no reuse of power.

4. Wireless communication systems using radio frequencies are susceptible to multi-path fading, reflection, and environmental conditions.

5. NEAR FIELD MAGNETIC INDUCTION All FreeLinc Wireless Systems are powered by our patented Near-Field Magnetic Induction. (NFMI) creates a magnetic field between two devices. That magnetic field is your communication “bubble” or type of personal area network. This magnetic field energy resonates around the communication system, but does not radiate into free space. This type of transmission is referred to as “near-field.”

6. By containing all of the energy in your communication bubble, FreeLinc Systems provide a high signal-to-noise ratio between paired devices. NFMI energy saturates its environment, penetrating the human body, walls, concrete, and earth; providing reliable signal quality and clear audio transmissions.

7. FreeLinc Systems create a magnetic field around the transducer antenna keeping the energy in and around the transmitter circuitry. This allows NFMI systems to reuse the energy. The reuse of energy gives you up to 5 times more battery life than a Bluetooth wireless system.

8. As the distance from a Near Field Magnetic Induction system increases, the emission levels fall rapidly to below the ambient noise floors. NFMI improves communication security by making interception extremely difficult.

9. GETTING STARTED

10. RADIO ADAPTER

11. FREEMIC 200 SPEAKER MICROPHONE

12. FREEMOTION 100 SINGLE EAR HEADSET

13. Attach your adapter to your radio and turn on your radio. Set the volume on your portable to 70%.

14. Set the On/Off switch to the “ON” position. This will automatically silence the speaker on your portable radio and route all communications to the FreeLinc Remote Device

15. FREEMIC 200 Press and hold the Push-to-Talk button on your FreeMic for 2 seconds, listening for beeps. FREEMOTION 100 Slide switch to “ON” position. Status Indicator Light stay on for 5 seconds then go out.

16. To pair your FreeMotion or FreeMic to your adapter, hold your device within 10” of your adapter and at least 6’ from another active FreeLinc Wireless System. Press and hold both Up and Down volume buttons simultaneously for 3 to 4 seconds. The Adapter Indicator Light will change from Flashing Red to Flashing Green, indicating a successful pairing.

22. ADAPTOR Indicators and Behavior

23. REMOTE DEVICE Tones and Behavior

24. Facts You Should Know • The remote device is constantly sending back a signal to the adapter to make sure they still have connectivity.  When the remote device does not receive confirmation from the adapter, your remote device will go to stand-by after 2 to 5 minutes. • OR • If the remote device and radio/adapter are out of range, the indicator light on the adapter will indicate red. • To take it out of stand-by, depress the PTT on the remote device until you hear a tone. Then power up the radio/adapter or bring the remote device back in range. • If there is no power to the adapter, the LED indicator will be off. *For encrypted pairing, please ask your FreeLinc representative.

25. Facts You Should Know • Although not common, changes in your environment may cause your magnetic field to drift. If this happens, you may hear popping or noise in your audio link. • This can be easily fixed by recalibrating your remote device and adapter by re-establishing the pairing.

26. Facts You Should Know In all wireless technology, there is some level of spurious radio frequency. The level found in FreeLinc’s NFMI is the same as in some Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) devices. RFID readers can be found at the cash registers of many convenience stores, drug stores, or throughout a Wal-Mart or Target (price look-up stations). They can be found in buildings with secure entry and in equipment rooms for checking in and out weapons, radios, etc. When you come within close proximity of these devices you may hear the loss link alert tones. Once you pass the RFID reader or step back 1 to 2 steps, the communication link will automatically re-establish.

27. Facts You Should Know If you come within three feet of another NFMI based device you may experience some static or hear the link loss alert tones. This is remedied by either moving away from the other user or bringing your adapter closer to your remote device which will shrink the size of the communication bubble.
