setup onto another beltpack. This allows you to quickly configure beltpacks when many have
the same setup.
Use the Clear button to clear all key assignments for the current beltpack.
10.4.9 Configuring the Reply key
You can configure the Reply key in the following ways:
• As a Reply key. When anyone calls this beltpack, the LEDs will flash and the label of
the caller will appear in the display. You can reply to the call by pushing the REPLY
key.
• Assigning a call destination. Pushing the Reply key calls this destination. For
example, if you select STGAN from the list, you can always activate the stage
announce by pushing the REPLY key. The label STGAN appears in the display. The
key type will be enabled allowing the reply key to be configured.
• Locked. Selecting ---- de-activates the centre key. Five dashes ----- appear in the
display above the key.
Note: In the last two cases there is no mechanism for replying to sources that call the beltpack
which do not have keys on the beltpack assigned to them.
