Public Address (PA)
If the PA output on the back panel of the MS-2002 is connected to a public address system, you can talk on the
public address system as follows:
1. If you are using manual microphone activation instead of Vox, make sure the proper microphone switch
is turned on (either Headset or Panel Mic).
2. Press and hold the PA key while talking. Release it when finished.
Note: To insure that the PA key is never accidentally left in the on position, it does not have latching opera-
tion.
Turning the Program Inputs On and Off
1. Insure that program inputs have been connected at the back panel and that the program sources are on.
2. Press and hold the Mic Kill key for about 2 seconds, then release it. It should now be glowing green to
indicate that the MS-2002 is in programming mode.
3. The current status of the program inputs is indicated by the Talk keys. If the channel 1 Talk key is lit, the
program 1 input is currently activated to channel 1; if channel 2 talk is lit, program 2 is activated to
channel 2. Tap either Talk key to turn the program input for that channel on or off.
4. When the program inputs are configured as desired, tap the Mic Kill key to exit programming mode and
return to normal operation.
5. Adjust program 1 and 2 levels via the trimmers on the back panel of the MS-2002.
Using Mic Kill
If the Mic Kill feature has been enabled you can use it to deactivate all talk keys on a single channel or on all
channels. This feature is useful when a remote talk key has been left on and is causing unwanted noise on a channel.
Use Mic Kill as follows:
1. Tap the Mic Kill key. It will blink green.
2. Tap the Talk or Listen key for a channel to turn off all talk keys on that channel. Or, tap the All Talk key
to turn off all talk keys. The key you tap will turn green and the Mic Kill signal will be sent.
3. Tap Mic Kill to exit.
Using Voice-Activated Microphone (Vox)
If you use Vox you will not have to insure that the microphone key is turned on whenever you want to talk. Activate
Vox as follows:
1. Make sure the Headset and Panel Mic keys are off.
2. If you are using a headset, tap the Headset key twice to turn on headset vox. Or, if you are using a panel
microphone, tap the Panel Mic key twice to turn on panel mic vox. Whichever key you tap, it will glow
orange when the microphone is off and will flicker or turn green when the microphone turns on.
Note: The Vox level may require adjustment, see “Voice-Activated Microphone (Vox) Setup”, page 16.
Incoming Call Beep On/Off
Normally, incoming calls are indicated by red-flashing Call keys. An optional beep tone can also be enabled as
follows:
1. Ensure that this feature has been activated via internal switches (page 7).
2. Press and hold the Mic Kill key for about 2 seconds, then release it. It should now be glowing green to
indicate that the intercom station is in programming mode.
3. Tap either Call key on the MS-2002 to turn the beep feature on or off. (It doesn’t matter which one you
tap, since this feature affects both channels.)
4. Tap the Mic Kill key to return to normal operation.
