Lift the handset or press the Line button on the phone, is 
the Online LED Indicator on? 
If not, check to make sure (A) the power switch is on, (B) 
batteries are installed properly, (C) the handset/headset 
switch is at headset position.  
Select through the 6-position configuration switch until the 
Online LED turns on.
Select through the microphone selector switch to see if 
there is a position that turns on the LED.
If the Online LED lights up, then your A20 Omega is 
functioning. 

Is the Reception Volume Control set too low?
Make sure the headset is properly plugged into the front 
Headset Jack on the amplifier.
Try switching to use the handset to see if there is dial tone 
coming from the telephone.
Make sure the Quick Disconnector of your headset is 
connected.

Make sure the Mute button is not pressed down.
Check to see if the Microphone Volume is set too low.
Is the Low-battery beeper sound on, if so, replace new 
batteries.
Select through the microphone selector to find a better 
setting.

If the Microphone Volume Control is set too high or the 
Reception Volume Control is set too high, reduce either 
one or both to find the perfect settings.

It is possible that some telephones have unusual 
microphone input requirements, A20 Omega is capable of 
expanding the compatibility by adjusting the Microphone 
Volume Gain Control, but you should contact your 
technical support for the adjustments. 

I hooked everything 
up exactly as 
suggested, but there 
is still no response 
from my A20 Omega 
unit.

The Online LED is 
on, but I cannot 
hear anything from 
the other side.

My Caller cannot 
hear me at all or 
cannot hear me very 
well.

I hear my voice too 
loud and there is a 
squealing sound.

The other end 
cannot hear me well 

 

no matter which mic
setting I chose.

Make sure all the cables are properly hooked up, especially 
the patch cable connecting the amplifier with the 
telephone terminal.
Then, check to make sure the Handset/headset Switch is 
set at HEADSET.
Has the Low-battery sound indication been heard recently, 
if so, you should replace new batteries. If you are not sure, 
try to replace new batteries for now.
Now make sure there is signal coming from the telephone, 
you can test this by selecting Handset/headset Switch to 
HANDSET and pick up the handset to check if there is a 
dial-tone. If no, then the problem is with the telephone or 
the network; if yes, then switch the Handset/headset 
Switch to HEADSET and the Online LED should light up. 

Make sure you change your batteries whenever you heard 
a repeating “beep” sound, as mic-transmission may be 
affected if the power voltage is dropped to a certain level.
The amplifier will not drop any reception signal (speaker 
side), so if you hear interruptions to the speaker side, 
make sure the headset plug is fastened, and then the Quick 
Disconnector is firmly connected.

Telephone calls made to different systems and locations 
may vary in their reception level. To reduce breathing 
sound noises, you should keep the foam windscreen 
attached to the microphone on your Accutone headset, or 
adjust the Microphone Volume according to different calls.

When muted, the Online LED Indicator should lit up.

The device was 
working fine, but 
after a prolonged 
period of inactivity, 
it has no response 
when I turn it on. 
(Online LED doesn't 
come on when I pick 
up the phone.)

During a telephone 
conversation, the 
voice transmission 
or reception 
suddenly ceased.

The caller on the 
other side can hear 
my breathing sound, 
and the noise is too 
loud.

The voice reception 
and transmission are 
fine, but I cannot see 
any LED indication, 
online or mute.
