beltpacks have inadvertently been left activated, incidental noise and talking can
make it difficult or impossible to communicate on the party line intercom. The
remote mic kill button can be pressed to quiet the line in this situation. Those
needing to communicate can then set their talk functions to on as needed.
Note:
The remote mic kill button only functions if the MS-704 main station is
powering all of the stations in the system. Pressing the button
momentarily interrupts power to the other beltpacks and stations in the
system. If there are other power supplies or main stations in the system,
then the remote mic kill switch cannot interrupt power and therefore
cannot work.
HIDDEN FRONT PANEL OPTIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS
This section describes the option DIP switches and various adjustment controls
behind the access panel on the front panel. These option switches and controls
are usually set and not used in daily operation of the unit.
To gain access to these controls, pull on the two latches on either end of the
access panel and remove it.
DIP Switch Options
The unit is shipped with all DIP switches, except the Headset Audio Limiter, in
their default positions (up). The Headset Audio Limiter dip switch is shipped in
the down (on) position.
The following functions are enabled with DIP switches:
•
HEADSET AUDIO LIMITER: The HS dip switch turns the headset audio
limiter on or off. Unless an especially high volume is needed, this switch
should be left in the on position to protect the hearing of the user.
•
INTERRUPT ENABLE: Three DIP switches (B, C, and D) enable the
program interrupt function on channels B, C, and D. Program interrupt is
not available on channel A.
•
AUTO-CALL: Four DIP switches (one for each channel) enable
automatically sending a call signal whenever a talk is active on the enabled
channel.
•
AUTO-TALK/LISTEN: Four DIP switches (one for each channel) enable
automatically setting the listen function whenever a talk is active on the
enabled channel.
•
TALK LATCH DISABLE: Four DIP switches (one for each channel) disable
the latching action of the selected channel.
•
PROGRAM ON/OFF: Four DIP switches (one for each channel) enable
feeding the main program input to the selected intercom channel. The main
program input is the one on the XLR-3F on the rear panel.
The other four program inputs in the auxiliary connector feed their respec-
tive intercom channels all of the time. The only way to turn off the Auxiliary
feed to a channel is to turn its individual control off.
