Operating the Transceiver System

Understanding Intercom Usage with the CopperHead 3400

until you are comfortable with the level of your own voice. This does not affect how others
on the Intercom circuit hear you, only the local level of your voice.

If your system requires Remote activation of Talk Back, you will need to configure a remote
intercom switch or wire a remote intercom signal path to your camera (if your camera
provides remote intercom functionality). Please see

Camera Unit Connectors

on page 89 for

information regarding the wiring of GPI type triggers.

To use the Remote Talk Back function, switch the Intercom Local/Remote switch to REM.
The Talk LED will not be dependent on remote activation: it will illuminate when the
Remote Talk Switch is active and go out when the Talk Switch is inactive.

The selection of the active Talk Back Intercom Channel is identical to that when the 
Intercom Local/Remote Switch is in LOCAL.
