The two 2-Wire Intercom Type slide switches congure the BaseStaon for the type of intercom that will be connected
to the corresponding 2-Wire connectors on the rear panel of the BaseStaon. Clear-Com, RTS, or BAL (AudioCom) can be

type for both the A and the B intercom channels. The C&D switch selects the 2-Wire system type for both the C and the D
intercom channels.
2- Wired Intercom Channel Select (SEL) Buon
The Intercom Channel Select (SEL) buon is used to select one of the four intercom channels so that the intercom mode
-- 2-Wire or 4-Wire -- and audio input and output levels, may be adjusted.
Pressing the CHAN SEL buon puts the BaseStaon into Menu Mode and advances to the Intercom Levels screen.
Pressing the CHAN SEL buon a second me selects channel A, for the opportunity to select 2-Wire or 4-Wire or no wired
connecon, and IN and OUT levels can be adjusted (see 2-Wire/4-Wire Select below.)
Addional presses advance through the intercom channels, and return to Operaonal Mode. The intercom channel selected
is indicated by the two “CHAN” LEDs located to the immediate right of the SEL buon.
Also, in the Aux IN/OUT menu, SEL advances through the channels to adjust the Aux IN and Aux OUT levels.

Enter Menu Mode, by pressing the Channel Select (SEL) buon ([2] above). In Menu Mode, the Channel LEDs indicate the
channel currently selected for adjustment. Only one channel may be selected at a me.
