2—Call Button and Lamp
Pressing the Call button will send a call signal on the selected channel. All the
call lights on that channel will then flash. Call signals can also be sent while
talking if required. The Call lamp will light while the Call button is pressed, or
whenever a call signal is present on the selected channel.
3—Intercom Level Control
Turn this control to set the listen level required on the headset.
4—Sidetone Control
Sidetone is the level of the operator’s voice that heard while talking on the
intercom. Setting a comfortable level of sidetone will ensure that the intercom
line sounds alive and also helps modulate the operator’s voice relative to
other voices on the line.
Use the following procedure to correctly set the Sidetone level control.
1.
Set the Intercom Level control to a comfortable level by having
someone talk to the operator from another station.
2.
Press the Talk button and speak into the microphone while
turning the Sidetone control slowly back and forth until you hear
your voice at a comfortable level in the headset.
Note: Do not force the trimpot past its stop points. This will damage it.
5—Channel Switch
This switch selects the intercom channel (A, B, C, or D) on which the headset
station is active.
6—Headset Connector
The headset connector is located on the front panel. All Clear-Com headsets
are recommended for use with the MR-202 or MR-204. The Clear-Com PT-4
Push-to-Talk Microphone or the HS-6 Telephone Handset will also plug into
the headset connector. The following is a description of the characteristics of
