4.0  FRONTPANEL CONTROLS & CONNECTORS 

 

 

 

VOLUME control knobs 

Theses knobs, one for each channel. adjust the 
listen level for the headset and the loudspeaker. 
 

TALK buttons 

These push buttons, one for each channel, 
activate the gooseneck or headset microphone. 
The large green LEDs indicate if the microphone 
is switched on. 

 

Momentary switching: 

If a TALK button is pushed and held, the 
microphone signal is sent to the corresponding 
intercom channel until the button is released. 
 

Latched switching: 

If a TALK button is pushed quickly it is 
electronically latched and the microphone signal 
is sent to the corresponding  intercom channel.  
If pushed again, the TALK button switches off. 

 

Mic Mute when latched on: 

After on the intercom channel a so-called MIC 
Mute signal has been received from a PRO 
Series master station or separate power supply, 
the connection between microphone and intercom 
channel is interrupted. By pushing the TALK 
button the connection is restored again. 

 

CALL buttons 

These push buttons (one for each channel) 
activate the call system.  
By a momentary push a visual call signal is sent 
to all stations connected to the corresponding 
intercom channel and the call LEDs start flashing. 
By holding a CALL button pushed for 2 seconds 
the call buzzer is activated, provided there is no 
‘buzzer mute’ on one or both  intercom channels. 
After the CALL button is released the LEDs 
continue to flash for a further 2 seconds.  

 

SIDE TONE LEVEL trimmers 

These trimmers, one for each channel, are for 
minimizing the speaker feeding back into the 
gooseneck microphone (unit feedback). They also 
determine the level of your own voice as you hear 
it in the speaker or headset.  
 

SIDE TONE HI trimmers 

These trimmers, one for each channel,  have the 
same function as trimmer #5, but solely for the 
high frequencies. 

 

Adjustment procedure for both side tone 
trimmers, for each channel separately: 

  set trimmer in start position: fully clockwise 
  switch off the microphones of all 

connected (speaker) stations 

  make sure there is no automatic speaker 

attenuation (turn trimmer #6 fully 
clockwise) 

  push the TALK button of the 

corresponding channel 

  slowly turn up the listen volume 
  speak into the gooseneck microphone
