To clear the current call, and go to the next call in the answer-back stack, quickly
press and release the switch.

Studio Announce

The Studio Announce function momentarily turns off all talk paths leaving the panel and
sends the panel’s microphone audio out through the Studio Announce output. This
function overrides external IFB and ISO, interrupting matrix communications to these
external systems.

To use a logic device to activate studio announce:

1)

Select the Studio Announce option in the Eclipse Configuration System.

2)

Connect a logic device (such as a foot switch, a panel-mounted switch, or the
logic output of another device) to the i-Series panel’s GPI connector.

3)

Switch on the logic device to activate the panel’s studio announce. Holding down
the switch activates a talk path to the studio announce output.

4)

Note that the logic switch, like studio announce itself, cannot be latched. It
functions momentarily only.

Speaker Off

The Speaker Off function allows you to set up an external logic device, such as a panel-
mounted switch, a foot switch, or the logic output of some other device, to shut off the
panel’s loudspeaker.

To use a logic device to shut off the panel’s loudspeaker:

5)

Select the Speaker Off option in the Eclipse Configuration System.

6)

Connect a logic device (such as a foot switch, a panel-mounted switch, or the
logic output of another device) to the i-Series panel’s GPI connector.

7)

Switch on the logic device to shut off the panel’s loudspeaker.

PTT: Activate All Talk Keys

The PTT: Activate All Talk Keys function allows you to set up an external logic device,
such as a panel-mounted switch, a foot switch, or the logic output of some other device, to
activate all latched keys at your panel. When the logic device is not activated, you will not
be able to talk from any latched key at your panel.

For example, some headsets are equipped with a push-to-talk switch on their headset
cords. The push-to-talk switch can be wired to operate as a logic device. When an
intercom operator wants to talk to any destination with a latched key on his panel, he will
only be able to do so if he first pushes the push-to-talk switch on the headset cord.

To use a logic device to activate all latched talk keys:

1)

Select the “PTT: Activate All Talk Keys” option in the Eclipse Configuration
System.

2)

Attach a logic device (such as a foot switch, panel-mounted switch, a push-to-talk
headset, and so on) to the i-Series panel’s GPI connector.
