To turn on the headset, press the ON switch located on the inside of the
transceiver housing. A single tone will sound in the earphone and the LED
indicator will glow green to indicate the headset has been turned on.
The system has several operating modes. The number of available operating
modes depends on the system configuration (single–lane vs dual–lane, standard
communication vs duplex communication, etc.).
In the standby mode, the headset is on and waiting to receive communication
from the menu sign or other headset operators. This mode is available with all
system configurations.
Use the talk/listen mode to talk to the customer at the menu sign. This mode is
available with all system configurations.
Single–Lane Standard or Duplex Communication Systems

the system detects a customer (vehicle) at the menu sign.
2. When you hear the alert tone, press and hold T1 or T2 to talk to the
customer at the menu sign. Release T1 or T2 to listen.
Dual–Lane Standard or Duplex Communication Systems
In dual–lane systems, some headsets are programmed to communicate with
Lane 1 and others are programmed to communicate with Lane 2. The headsets
are labeled accordingly.

(vehicle) at the menu sign:
•
