SITUATIONAL AWARENESS TALK-THROUGH OPERATION
The OTTO NoizeBarrier TAC Headset’s talk-through technology allows users to hear
normal sounds around them and maintain complete situational awareness (SA). At the
same time, sound suppression circuitry reduces dangerously loud noises over 85dB to
safe levels. The OTTO NoizeBarrier TAC is unique in that it does not shut down situation
-
al awareness when loud noises, including impulse noises such as gunfire, are blocked.
The headset will continue to transmit sounds at a safe volume.
Talk-through SA feature is NOT required to be active to receive and transmit radio com
-
munications. When talk-through is not activated the headset works simply as a passive
noise-reducing headset.
