Figure 7 shows the talk button options for a dual-channel beltpack, with the
default option, “Tap Latch,” selected for both channels. The factory programs
this option into all dual-channel beltpacks, so that you can operate your beltpack
immediately when you receive it.
Figure 7: Talk Button Options for a Dual-Channel Beltpack
You can activate an option for one or both channels. To activate an option, click
the check box next to it. To shut off an option, clear its check box by clicking it.
The following section describe how each option functions.
NOTE: Some options are mutually exclusive. For example, you cannot choose Tap
Latch and Double-Tap latch for a channel at the same time. When you click an
option’s check box in the Talk Button area, any incompatible option’s check box
automatically clears to show that it is unavailable.
Latch Disabled When you select Latch Disabled for a channel, you cannot lock
the beltpack’s microphone on with the talk button. You can, however, press and
hold the talk button to talk on the microphone. When you release the button,
the microphone shuts off.
Latch Disabled prevents inadvertent latching of the talk button. Select this
option when using Call-on-Talk.
Tap Latch When you select Tap Latch for a channel, the beltpack’s microphone
latches when you simply tap the talk button for that channel once. The
microphone “locks” on, so that even after you release the talk button, the
microphone is on. To turn the microphone off, quickly press and release the talk
button for that channel again.
Double-Tap Latch When you select Double-Tap Latch for a channel, the
beltpack’s microphone latches when you tap the talk button for that channel
twice in quick succession. To turn the microphone off, press and release the talk
button for that channel.
Latch at Power Up When you select Latch at Power Up for a channel, the
beltpack’s microphone for that channel latches as the beltpack powers up. To
turn the microphone off, press and release the talk button.
Use this option only for environments in which you know that headsets are not
left connected after powering down a system, because acoustic leakage and
feedback can result when the system is powered back up.
