The IFB source audio will be dimmed on the IFB destinations for as
long as the IFB talk key is active. When the IFB talk key is released
the IFB source audio to the destinations will return to normal level.

CONNECTING TO THE STAGE ANNOUNCE
OUTPUT

The stage announce feature allows a talker to route their voice to an
external paging system or other audio destination by pressing one of
the rotary encoders to which the SA OUT connector is assigned. The
adjacent SA RELAY is simultaneously triggered. One beltpack user at
a time may use this feature, though the capability may be assigned to
any or all of the wireless beltpacks, as desired.

Connect a microphone cable to the male 3-pin XLR connector on the
rear of the FreeSpeak basestation, and connect the other end to the
external audio system. When the output is activated, the beltpack
user’s voice will be sent at line level to the audio system. The audio
output ceases when the beltpack user stops pressing the rotary
encoder; it is good practice to make sure that any rotary encoder to
which the SA OUT is assigned is set to momentary/non-latching mode.

Table 4-5: Pin Assignments for Stage Announce Connector

The associated SA RELAY can be assigned to open an audio route for
the paging or announcement, or can be assigned to initiate any other
event such as turning on a light or activating a lock. It is rated at a
maximum of 30 VDC at 1 ampere. The relay can be wired to be either
normally open or normally closed, using the pinout information in
Table 4-5.
