Supplying Power to Fort Independence Radio Transmitter

BigDaddyQB · Jul 1, 2016

I have a large (10 power) generator sitting right next to the transmitter. I cannot attach a wire to the transmitter from that generator. When I run the wire, it turns red when I attach it to the transmitter connector. I've tried running it just short of
the transmitter, while the transmitter is still highlighted in white, then pressing Y to attach, but that does not work. I even built two medium generators, connected them, and tried attaching a wire from one of the connected generators. No luck. Any suggestions?

Supplying power to the Radio Tower at Fort Independence

To complete the mission you need to use the Workshop to build generators that can supply the radio tower with power of 10. Without the Science Perk Level 1 you can build 4 small (power 3 each) or 2 medium (power 5 each) sized generators. The largest (power
10 each) size requires the aforementioned Science Perk Level 1. Some people have noted having trouble thinking this is bugged. For some it may be, but my resolution was attaching the wires in a daisy chain from each generator and the last generator to the
radio tower. The radio tower only allows 1 connection from 1 generator. That is the key.

try placing a short pylon to connect both the generator and the transmitter. that worked for me when I had that problem. hope this helps

you can try moving the generator around to see if it connects, sometimes objects block the wire even when they look like they shouldn't interfere. might just take a small shift to fix

So, the white box could be a specialized data radio, or just a amplifier/power supply for the WiFi receiver.

Disconnect the wireless network adapter from USB port and power down your console and wait 10 minutes.

Power off your modem and router for a couple of minutes. Power on the modem and wait one minute for it to connect properly. Power on the router and wait another minute. Plug in the external wireless network adapter and power on the console. Try and see if this
made any changes.

If you have a wireless headset (e.g. Turtle Beach) with a digital RF transmitter, try unplug the power supply from the transmitter.

Appreciate if you could post up the make and model of your wireless router and your modem as well (if this is not a single device).

Thank you!

This is from TB support page:

In order to play game audio, a wireless headset must be "paired" to its transmitter. The headset and transmitter are paired out of the box. The instructions below are only necessary if pairing appears to have been lost. This can happen if the headset is
turned off for a long time or is out of range.

When the headset and transmitter are paired, the transmitter's Power/Pairing LED will be solid. If this LED is "blinking" slowly (slowly fading in and out), it means the transmitter is not paired with the headset and game audio will not play through the
headset.

The Transmitter sends game audio only. Chat is sent to the headset directly from the controller

Pairing Instructions

1) Turn off the headset by pressing the headset Power button for 3 seconds. The LED on the headset should be completely off when it is powered down.

2) Unplug the transmitter's USB power cable to power it down. Wait 3 seconds and then plug the power cable back in. The transmitter's Power/Pairing LED should now be pulsing slowly on and off.

3) Hold down the transmitter's Pair button for about 5 seconds. Release the Pair button when the transmitter's Power/Pairing LED begins to flash rapidly (twice per second). It should now be blinking quickly and steadily twice per second. If it is blinking
much more than 2 times per second, the button was held for much too long (15+ seconds), and you must start over from Step 2.

4) With the headset still powered off, hold down the headset's Power button for about 6 seconds until you hear a second set of two beeps. The headset's Power LED should now be blinking rapidly like the transmitter (twice per second).

Note: The LED should not be double blinking (two quick blinks followed by a pause). If it is double blinking, then the button was not held long enough, and you must start over from Step 1.

5) Wait about 10 to 15 seconds. The transmitter's Power/Pairing LED should be solid, and the headset's Power LED should now be flashing steadily once per second.

The headset is now paired to the transmitter and is ready to play game audio.

How do I know if my headset and transmitter are in pairing mode?

The transmitter has three different "flashing" patterns. It can be "Pulsing" on and off, which indicates that it is not paired. If you hold the PAIR button for 5 seconds, it will start blinking 2 times a second at an even rate. This is pairing mode.

If you hold the button upwards of 15 seconds, it will start blinking extremely quickly and the transmitter will leave pairing mode. This is not the correct pairing mode. Unplug the transmitter's USB cable if it's gone this far to "reset" the transmitter.

If the headset is paired and game audio is still not working, double check that all the connections are secure and plugged into the appropriate outputs according to the headset's user guide
