Figure 2-3: Activating the “Monitor Mode” of a Talk-with-Listen Key

To activate the “monitor mode” of a talk-with-listen key:

1. Press the LISTEN key on the function key module for less than one

second (“tap” the key).

• Each key assigned as a talk-with-listen glows dim green to

indicate that its “monitor mode” is available for activation.

• The LISTEN key on the function key module glows bright green

while in this mode.

2. Tap a dim-green key to activate it.

The key glows bright green to indicate its change to an active
listen-only key.

3. To talk to the source, press and hold the key.

The key glows bright red to indicate that a talk-with-listen call is
active. When you release the key, it reverts back to its active
listen-only mode (bright green). The talk-with-listen function cannot
be latched; it is only active while you press the key.

To cancel the key’s monitor mode and revert back to the
talk-with-listen mode:

1. Tap the LISTEN key on the function-key module.
2. Tap the desired active listen-only key (bright green).

The formerly active listen-only key now glows dim red to indicate
that it has reverted back to its non-active talk-with-listen mode. If you
press the key to talk, it glows bright red.

Note: You must tap the LISTEN key on the function key module

for each key you activate in “monitor mode.”
