Handset Type Switch
The three position switch on the back of VOICE PATH
selects the type of microphone that is in the handset of
your telephone. When you push in the Playback button,
VOICE PATH replaces the handset microphone signal
with a circuit that must match the characteristics of the
handset microphone. The A B C selector switch covers
the main three microphone type.

Note: Not all telephones are built alike so we cannot
guarantee VOICE PATH will work with any hand-
set design out there. We designed the interface
to work with most popular designs. If a conflict
arises it will typically be on the line input side. If
you attempt to send voice band signals down the
line input jack and the distant party complains that
the level is too loud or severely distorted
(clipping), try to lower the transmit signal on your
audio equipment. If this does not help, discon-
tinue use immediately.
