CALL Light Function 

If the CL200 (optional) Call Light button is pressed, or a call tone from an RTS or ClearCom intercom 
system is received through the CL200 on the 2-wire circuit: 

 

One short beep will sound in the Speaker Station or headset, and will also be heard through all 
Beltpacs or All-in-one Headsets registered to the same Base Station as the Speaker Station. 

 

The yellow 

CALL

 light next to the 

POWER

 button on the Speaker Station will flash 3 times and 

pause, then flash 3 times and pause, then flash 3 final times. 

 

Headset Microphone Gain Adjustment  

Some users speak louder or softer than others.  The headset microphone gain adjustment helps to 
compensate for these differences, raising or lowering the voice level of the user speaking into the 
microphone.  Increase microphone gain for softer voices, decrease for louder voices. 

 

To adjust microphone gain, first be sure the internal speaker is off.   

 

Press and hold the 

ISO

 button while pressing the 

VOLUME

 up 

 or down 

 arrow.   

  When you reach maximum microphone gain, you will hear “Maximum.”   

  When you reach minimum microphone gain, you will hear a double beep. 

There are 16 steps between maximum and minimum microphone gain levels. 

 

Headset Sidetone Adjustment 

Sidetone is the level of your own voice that you hear in the headset earpiece as you speak into the microphone.  

 

To increase or decrease the sidetone level, first be sure the internal speaker is off.   

 

Press and hold the 

IC

 button while pressing the 

VOLUME

 up 

 or down 

 arrow.   

  When you reach maximum sidetone level, you will hear “Maximum.”   

  When you reach minimum sidetone level, you will hear a double beep. 

There are 5 steps between maximum and minimum sidetone levels. 

NOTE:

 

A trim pot is provided for fine tuning adjustments with a small screwdriver, through the hole labeled 

SIDE TONE

 on the left side of the Speaker Station. 

This adjustment only affects the level of your voice in your own headset, not how anyone else hears you. 

 

Changing Batteries 

When batteries are becoming weak, you will hear “Change battery” from the speaker or headset. When this 
happens, remove the battery sled from the Speaker Station and replace the six batteries in it with fresh AA 
batteries.  Be sure battery polarity is correct when replacing the batteries. 

Rechargeable BAT850 Batterie

If you are using the optional HME BAT850 Rechargeable Battery, remove the battery from the Speaker 
Station and replace it with a fully charged battery. Recharge the battery in the optional AC850 Battery 
Charger according to the instructions received with the charger. Charging time is approximately 3 hours. 

 
 
 

 
 
 

Auxiliary Speaker Connection 

An 8 ohm auxiliary speaker can be connected to the right side of the Speaker Station, 
using the enclosed 2-position connector plug.  Adjustments affecting the Speaker Station 
will also affect the parallel auxiliary speaker.
