BASIC OPERATION
Talking
To talk to a desired channel, simply press the “Talk” key. The Talk key operates in one of two modes,
depending on the user’s action:
•
Momentary (also called “Push to Talk”): Press and hold the Talk key for longer than 1 second. The talk
function will be enabled (on) if the Talk key is pressed. As soon as the Talk key is released, the talk
function will be disabled.
•
Latched: Pressing the Talk key quickly (less than 1 second) will latch the talk function on. Pressing the
Talk key again will disable the talk function.
When the Talk function is active, the Talk LED located next to that channel’s Talk key will be lit.
Calling
To send a call signal to other members of a partyline, press the Call button. The Call LED will light on all
beltpacks of the partyline, including the beltpack which initiated the call signal.
Adjusting the Listening Volume
Each channel has its own individual volume control on the side of the beltpack.
To adjust the listening volume, turn the encoder on the side of the beltpack nearest to the channel.
•
Turning the volume control in a clockwise direction (to the right) increases the volume.
•
Turning the volume control in a counter-clockwise direction (to the left) decreases the listening
volume.
•
To adjust the listening volume of the Program Input, adjust the volume encoder on the bottom of the
beltpack.
