Internal Communication
To communicate internally with other COMMUNICATOR
®
operators, press and hold the B button while talking. Release
when finished. In single-lane operations, up to four Communicator
operators can have conference-call type communication by all
pressing the B button. Everyone pressing the B button will hear
each other without interference.
In dual-lane operation, if your system was set up for “Split-B,”
internal communication will be heard only by Communicator
operators in your lane. If your system was not set up for Split-B
operation, internal communication will be heard by all
Communicator operators in both lanes. In dual-lane operation, up
to three Communicator operators can have conference-call type
communication by all pressing the B button. Everyone pressing
the B button will hear each other without interference. If a car
arrives in a lane while internal communication is taking place,
priority will be given to the respective A channel for customer
communication, which will reduce the number of internal
communication channels available.
Speed-Team Operation
Speed team operation is used during high-volume times. An order
taker wearing a Communicator relays orders from outside into the
store, using button A1, A2 or B. Placing the speed-team switch, on
the base station, in the ON position (shown in Figure 2 on page 2)
will disable the outside speaker and microphone, and the vehicle-
alert tone.
Wired Backup System
In order to use a wired backup system, you must have a Switcher
Board (optional) in your base station. Open the base station, and
look for the board shown in Figure 8. If there is no Switcher
Board, it will not be possible to use a wired backup system. If
there is a Switcher Board, place the S2 switch in the IN position
to use the wired backup system. When using the Wireless 6000
system, the S2 switch must be in the OUT position.
