Useful tips
TALK buttons can be set to three different modes: Latch, Momentary, or
Disable.
Mic gain, sidetone, and volume levels can all be set based on each user’s
needs.
Set a single BaseStation to Split or Shared mode and use an unlimited
number of BeltStations that operate in a push-to-talk/momentary talk
mode.
When syncing multiple BaseStations, it is important to power ON one
BaseStation at a time, starting with the rst BaseStation in the sequence.
