ing systems. the CHAt 170 vC breakout box is the interface between the CHAt 170 and the video conferencing device.
Once you have properly connected the CHAt 170 vC breakout box to your video conferencing device and tv (using the
included RCA connection cable) all settings changes such as mute, microphone and speaker level adjustments, etc., are
controlled trough the CHAt software application. the breakout box itself has no buttons and no functionality for making
settings changes. the LEd indicates only that the device has power.
