BeltStati on Overview
1- Volume- CH A and CH B
In Operati onal Mode, turning the Volume control adjusts the volume of
the audio. Volume indicators appear on the display during adjustment
and are expressed in Decibels (dB).
The Volume control has an opti on to be set to “Volume Press” where it
requires a “press and turn” to adjust the volume level. The “Volume Press”
opti on can be adjusted under the “Set Controls” secti on of the BeltStati on
menu.
Pressing the Volume control in “Dual-listen” mode does nothing. In
“Single-listen” mode, pressing “CH A” enables channel A, and pressing “CH
B” enables channel B . The Volume control has a channel “Delay Switch”
opti on which requires the knob to be pressed and held slightly longer in
order to switch from one channel to the other. This feature can be enabled
under the “Set Controls” secti on of the BeltStati on menu.
In Menu Mode, turning either Volume control allows the user to scroll the
opti ons of the current menu screen. Pressing the Volume control selects
the opti on.

to the BaseStati on rear panel Stage Announce (SA) output connector. If desired, when this butt on is pressed, a momentary
relay contact closure is made at the Relay connector. See the secti on on GPO Relays.
Pressing the Stage Announce butt on automati cally enables the microphone, regardless of Talk Butt on status. The Stage
