Make sure that S301 on the RM-HP250AU main board is set to the unbalanced audio position
(RTS) which is the factory default position. See fig 2 on last page.
Step 2
When connecting to a 2W RTS™ system, wire the three pin microphone XLRs that are used to
connect the RTS™ intercom system to the RM-HP250AU as shown below. As indicated below
connect the RTS™ XLR’s pin2 to the RM-HP250AU’s H terminal if Audio channel 1 is being
