.

The manner in which the talkback button 

functions can be configured.

Push to Talk

If this mode is selected the talkback function 

will normally be inactive and the LED associ-

ated with the talkback button will not be lit. 

Whenever the talkback button is pressed the 

talkback function will become active and its 

green LED will light.

Latching

If this mode is selected the talkback function 

will alternate between the active and inac-

tive states whenever the talkback button is 

pressed. The button’s green LED will be lit 

whenever the talkback function is active. 

Upon power up the talkback function will  

be in its inactive state and its button LED  

will not be lit.

Push to Talk/Tap to Latch

This mode is a combination of the Push to 

Talk and Latching modes. It’s similar to the 

way talk pushbutton switches function on 

user stations associated with broadcast or 

production intercom systems. If the talkback 

button is pressed and held the talkback func-

tion will be active. It will stay active until the 

talkback button is released. If the talkback 

button is momentarily “tapped” the status of 

the talkback function will change, either from 

inactive-to-active or from active-to-inactive. 

The button’s green LED will be lit whenever 

the talkback function is active. Upon Model 

207 power up the talkback button will be in  

its inactive state and its LED will not be lit.

Disabled

If this mode is selected the talkback function 

will be disabled and the LED associated  

with the talkback button will not be lit. If the 

Push to Talk/Tap to Latch

This mode is a combination of the Push to 

Talk and Latching modes. It’s similar to the 

way talk pushbutton switches function on 

user stations associated with broadcast or 

production intercom systems. If the main 

button is pressed and held the main button’s 

function will be active. It will stay active until 

the main button is released. If the main but-

ton is momentarily “tapped” the main button’s 

status will change, either from inactive-to- 

active or from active-to-inactive. Upon Model 

207 power up the main button will be in its 

inactive state and its red LED will be lit.

Push to Mute/Tap to Latch

This mode is a combination of the Push to 

Mute and Latching modes. Whenever the 

main button is momentarily “tapped” the  

main button’s status will change, either from 

active-to-inactive or inactive-to-active. When 

the main button function is active its green 

LED will be lit. The audio signal associated 

with the microphone input will be routed to 

the Dante main output channel. Whenever 

the main button is pressed and held the audio 

signal will mute on the Dante main output 

channel and the button’s LED will change 

from green to red. It will stay in this condition 

until the main button is released. Upon Model 

207 power up the main button will be in its 

inactive state and its red LED will be lit.

Always On

This mode is basically a button inactive  

function. The audio signal associated with 

the microphone audio signal will always be 

routed to the Dante main output channel  

and the button’s green LED will be lit. Press-

ing the button will not impact operation nor 

cause its associated LED to change color.
