Troubleshooting
No audio on belt pack
Verify the CAT cable is securely connected to both the ITC-300 and the belt pack. Ensure the belt pack is powered on and the channel is not muted. Check if the director has selected the correct channel to communicate with.
Intermittent audio or static
Check the integrity of the CAT cables for any signs of damage. Ensure all connections are firm. Try using a different CAT cable or a different port on the ITC-300. Minimize proximity to strong electromagnetic interference sources.
Belt pack not receiving power
Confirm that the ITC-300 unit is powered on and receiving mains power. Ensure the connected CAT cable is a standard Ethernet cable that supports PoE and is not damaged. Test with a different belt pack and cable to isolate the issue.
Tally light not functioning
Verify that the tally feature is enabled and configured correctly within the system, if applicable. Ensure the connection to the switcher is properly established and the switcher is outputting tally signals. Check the belt pack connection.
