Tempest900 2-Channel Operating Manual
6- Peak LEDs
The two PEAK LEDs indicate when the mic audio from the local headset is reaching a peak level and is about to enter into limiting. These
indicators should not be illuminated during normal use. The mic gain for the Local Headset connector can be adjusted from the “Set Mic Gain”
menu, under “BaseStation Settings.” Setting the mic gain correctly is critical for quality communication audio.
7- Volume Control
The multipurpose Volume control operates differently depending on the mode of the BaseStation.
In Operational Mode, turning the Volume control adjusts the volume of the local headset. Turning the Volume control clockwise increases the
audio level, while turning the control counter-clockwise decreases the level.
Press the Volume control to select the intercom channel to be monitored at the local headset connector. The intercom channel selected for the
local headset connector is indicated by the CHAN LEDs located to the left of the Volume control.
In Menu Mode, turn the Volume control to scroll through the menu options of the current menu screen. Pressing the Volume control selects the
current menu option and is the same as pressing the Enter button. A menu item is not selected and will not take affect until the Volume control
(or the Enter button) is pressed.
8- Menu Button
Pressing MENU while the BaseStation is in Operational mode will enter Menu Mode. The Main Menu screen will be displayed. Once in Menu
Mode, pressing the MENU button will act as an escape key and will back out of the current menu screen and move up one level. Pressing MENU
while at the Main Menu screen will exit Menu Mode.
9- Enter Button
The Enter (ENT) button on the BaseStation is only used while in Menu Mode. Pressing the ENT button selects the current menu option and is the
same as pressing the Volume control. A menu item is not selected and will not take affect until ENT (or the Volume control) is pressed.
10- Buttons 1 - 5
The ve buttons below the LCD display, labeled 1 through 5, have multiple uses depending on the mode of the BaseStation. In Operational
Mode, the BeltStation that is associated with a BaseStation Slot will appear directly above the corresponding numbered button. Pressing any of
the numbered buttons will select the BeltStation Menu screen for the BeltStation that is located in BaseStation Slots 1 through 5.
Note: These buttons are not active during Operational Mode when in Shared Mode.
In Menu Mode, pressing a numbered button selects the menu item with the corresponding number from the current list of menu items. This
selection produces the same result as using the Volume control to scroll down to the desired menu item and pressing ENT.
