enabled. You can program the beltpack keys by using:
• The Eclipse HX software. For more information, see the Eclipse HX Configuration
Software User Guide.
• The FreeSpeak II Configuration Editor. For more information, see 10 FS II
Configuration Editor.
• The FreeSpeak II Base station.
To talk to all the devices connected to the channel:
3) Connect a headset, using the 4-pin XLR–M connector on the base / rear of the
beltpack.
4) Press the appropriate key.
