7 Tempest®24 00 MasterBelt
The mic detect circuit (dynamic/electret) will indicate dynamic when it sees a load of 600Ω or less. It will indicate an
electret when it sees 1kΩ or greater. Between 600Ω and 1kΩ is not recommended as it may not accurately detect mic type.
Talk Butt on A and B
There are two TALK butt ons on each MasterBelt, one for
channel A and the other for channel B . The Talk butt on
enables the microphone signal for the assigned intercom
channels.
Tempest uses an intelligent latching method for TALK
butt ons. Pressing the TALK butt on momentarily will cause
the TALK butt on to latch. Pressing and holding the TALK
butt on will cause the butt on to act as a momentary switch.
Talk tones can be enabled or disabled per MasterBelt. If
enabled, users will here a tone each ti me the TALK butt on
is pressed.
Channel Indicator LEDs A and B
Each Talk butt on has two individual LED indicators. Together they surround the
Talk butt on. The LEDs will fl ash blue to indicate which intercom channel, A or
B , has been selected and will illuminate conti nuously to indicate that “Talk” is
enabled on that channel.
The Channel Indicator LEDs will fl ash red when the microphone signal is reaching a peak level and is entering into limiti ng.
