Offset Level
The Offset Level adjustment causes the speaker amplifier to maintain a set difference between the
ambient level and the speaker output level. The SmartVolume™ feature measures the ambient noise at
the station’s speaker and adds the Offset Level to set the speaker amplifier gain. This keeps page
announcements louder than the ambient noise. The Offset Level can be set from 0 dB (the speaker output
level is the same as the ambient level) to 49 dB.
A speaker should be set for 6 to 10 dB louder than the ambient noise, so the factory default is 9 dB.
Note
: There must be enough ambient noise for the station to sense. The exact level depends upon the
speaker type, but it is typically approximately 80 dB. To adjust the Offset Level as follows:
1.
Turn
USER ADJ
fully clockwise and wait to hear two beeps over the station’s speaker.
This switches the station into the Offset Level adjustment mode. If there is an audio signal on the
page line when the station enters this mode, you hear it over the speaker. Otherwise, you hear a
station-generated test tone.
2.
Turn
USER ADJ
counterclockwise to the desired speaker volume level.
The station remains in the Offset Level adjustment mode for as long as USER ADJ is varying. After
USER ADJ has remained stable for five seconds, the station returns to its normal operating mode.
VLC Level
The VLC Level adjustment sets the speaker amplifier gain for the Page Priority VLC feature to provide
an emergency output level. The amplifier can be set from minimum to full output (12 watts into 8 ohms)
in 100 discrete steps, or to no output. The factory default is step 10, but the System VLC Control feature
is disabled. To adjust the VLC Level, perform the following steps:
1.
Have an assistant make a page from another station that forces the station being adjusted into VLC
mode.
2.
Turn
USER ADJ
fully counterclockwise and wait to hear two beeps over the station’s speaker. This
switches the station into the VLC Level adjustment mode.
3.
Turn
USER
ADJ
clockwise to the desired speaker volume level. The station remains in the VLC
Level adjustment mode for as long as
USER ADJ
is varying. After
USER ADJ
has remained stable
for five seconds, the station returns to its normal operating mode.
Internal Adjustments
Although they typically require no adjustments, the following volume levels can be set with internal
controls: Audio Transmit Level, Handset Receiver Volume, Auxiliary Receiver Volume, and Tone
Volume.
To make an adjustment, it is necessary to remove the assembly from its enclosure and make a temporary
connection between the assembly and the enclosure. Refer to Figure 4 for the reference numbers and
locations of the adjustment controls.
Turn a control clockwise to increase the volume or threshold; turn it counterclockwise to decrease the
volume or threshold. Use a small flat-blade screwdriver with an insulated shaft to make adjustments.
