The Stage Announce (SA) functi on in the Tempest BaseStati on is used to send a wireless BeltStati on microphone signal to

routed from the selected intercom channel(s) and is sent to the BaseStati on rear panel SA connector. In additi on, a relay
closure contact is available on the RELAY connector on the back of the BaseStati on. Pressing the STAGE butt on enables the
headset microphone, regardless of the status of the Talk butt ons. If enabled, all BeltStati ons can access this feature.
The Stage Announce output connector is an XLR-3M. The Stage Announce connector is balanced and transformer isolated
and outputs nominal line level audio from -12 to +8 dBu. The Stage Announce connector output level can be adjusted at
the “Stage Announce” menu screen, under “Wired Intercom Setti ngs.”
In additi on, the Stage butt on may be confi gured to also control an additi onal relay assigned to the users BeltStati on. See
the GPO Relay secti on for more details.
On the BaseStati on, an acti ve Talk butt on is not required to send a Call signal, and
the Call signal is routed to the channel selected for monitoring. On the BeltStati on, a
Call signal is sent only when the Talk butt on is enabled, and only on the channel(s)
selected for Talk.
