• The right-hand keyset controls the second (bottom) channel displayed on screen.
For details of the standard on screen information for each channel, see Table 2-5
MainStation/Remote Station display icons and indicators.

a period of time. Press any key to exit screensaver mode.
To send a call signal to all the connected devices (beltpacks and Main Station) on that
channel, press the Call key.
To talk to all the devices connected to the channel:

beltpack.

volume. The current volume level for the channel is shown on screen.
