Key to FS II Base station front panel
Feature Description
Headset connector
The 4-pin male XLR-type headset socket connects to Clear-Com
headsets and other headsets with 4-pin female connectors. This
headset connector is for the on-board two-channel intercom, with
controls just to the right of the connector.
Headset channel A talk control/listen control
The channel A talk switch and associated light, and listen level
encoder, allow full-duplex conversations with any FS II wireless
beltpacks or other communications systems wired to the rear of the
Base station to which the on-board Channel A has been assigned.
Assignments are done via the front-panel programming.
The talk switch is momentary/latching, such that pressing it and
holding down will create a talk path that ends when the user releases
the switch, while quickly tapping it will latch the talk, and a second
tap will release it. The LED lights red when a talk is active.
Turning the listen level encoder clockwise will allow the user to hear
the other party’s voice, increasing the level to maximum when fully
clockwise.
A/B reply button.
Pressing this button will reply to the last caller to call A or B.
Headset channel B talk control/listen control
The channel B talk switch and associated light, and listen level
encoder, function the same as the controls for Channel A.
Partyline channels A and B
The channel A and channel B enable switches and associated lights
activates the power only on the rear-panel to partyline intercom
channels A and B. Activating one or both of these switches enables
the power to that party line but does not affect the audio to the
partyline which is always connected. These switches may be “locked”
via the front-panel SYSTEM programming menu so that they may not
be disengaged accidentally. See 6.21 Locking Front Panel Enable
Buttons.
If the button is held in for more than 8 seconds autonulling mode will
be enabled for the current partyline and the following message will
be displayed:
“Release button to begin autonulling”
