become active whenever its associated
pushbutton is pressed and held.
• Hybrid: This mode is a combination
of push to talk and latching action. If
a pushbutton is pressed and held the
audio signal associated with that talk-

until the pushbutton is released. If a

Figure 6. Sidetone switch settings
Two choices are available: low and high.
Low is appropriate when the Model 216
is to be used in an environment where the
ambient light level is low. High would be
appropriate where other light sources
in the physical area may make the push-
buttons more difficult to identify. High may
also be useful when identification mark-
ings have been inserted under the clear
lens caps.
Sidetone
Switches 5 and 6 configure the way the
sidetone function operates.
Four modes are available:
• Off: In this mode the sidetone function
not active.
• Main Button: In this mode the sidetone
function will be active whenever the
audio signal is present on the main
output channel.
