TurboVUi Dispatch Demo Installation & Test-Drive

The Radio Controllers (channels) shown in the above layout are located in our Cincinnati office headquarters.
This radio system is used only for demo purposes, and at times may not have actual radio traffic. If radio
traffic is needed, please call our main number (513-595-5900) and ask for TurboVUi Sales.
The Simple View tab shows three or four Radio Controllers with minimal information of PPT button and
radio status. One or more of these Radio Controllers may be offline (indicated as grayed-out), depending on
the tests that we are currently performing. These Radio Controllers may be reconfigured to show more
functionality in order to allow full control of the control station radio. Configuration of the Radio Controllers
will be discussed below.

For optimum sound level during a PTT, the Mic level meter should display 1 to 5 bars. If there is less than 1
bar, the sound level is not high enough. If there are more than 5 bars, then distortion in your voice will occur.

clicking the speaker icon in the system tray.

For Windows 7 or 8, choose Recording Devices from the drop-down list. On the Recording
