Listen:Auto,Manual,andAlwaysOn
In Manual Listen (ML), the operator must press the talk lane button to turn on the order point microphone
(to hear the customer order). The order point microphone will remain on until the vehicle leaves.
In Automatic Listen (AL), the order point microphone turns on and stays on whenever a
vehicle is detected. The order point microphone will remain on until the vehicle leaves.
In Always On, the order point speaker is always on so the customer can always be
heard regardless of whether a vehicle is detected at the order point. Always On is a
special failure mode that is useful if the vehicle detector cannot be used.
Talk:ManualLatching,PushtoTalk,Automatic
In Manual Latching Talk (MLT), the operator must press and release the talk lane button to
“latch” or lock the headset microphone in the on position. The operator can continue to speak
hands free until the talk button is pressed and released again. When Automatic Standby is on (see
below), the microphone will also be turned off when the vehicle is no longer detected.
In Push to Talk (PTT), the operator must press and hold the talk button while speaking
into the headset microphone. Releasing the button turns off the microphone.
In Hands Free, the headset microphone is on whenever the order point vehicle detector
detects a vehicle. Because Automatic Standby (see below) is also on when Hands Free
is On, the microphone is turned off when the vehicle is no longer detected.
