6.11 Setting beltpack latching
Beltpack latching determines whether the beltpack A and B latch when pressed so that the
user does not have to keep the button pressed to maintain an audio route, or are non-latching
so the audio route is only open when the button is pressed.
1) From the MAIN menu, select BELTPACKS.
The AVAILABLE BELTPACKS screen is displayed (see Figure 6-2 Available beltpacks menu).
2) Select the beltpack for which audio levels are to be set. The BELTPACK menu is
displayed.
3) Select ‘LATCH’. The beltpack latching menu is displayed, as shown in Figure 6-22
Beltpack latching menu.

4) Use the setup/enter encoder to select ‘NON-LATCHING’ or ‘LATCHING’ on the menu
and press the setup/enter encoder to set the latching status.
6.12 Over the Air (OTA) beltpack registration from the Base
station
Before beltpacks can be used they must be registered to the Base station. There are a
number of ways of doing this, either OTA or via a USB cable using the configuration software.
For more information, see 3.4.1 Over the air (OTA) registration of a beltpack from the
Base station for the procedure.
6.13 Setting input and output port levels
The settings at the Base station determine the input and output audio levels of a device
connected to a port. The user can adjust the levels from -20 to +6 dB.
6.13.1 Input level
The input level affects the volume of a signal coming into the Base station, for example from
the Stage Announce (STGAN) port. Adjusting this level will affect the volume of this channel to
ALL the users of the Base station.
• Setting the “input” level alters how loudly all users of the system will hear a channel; it is a
global volume control.
6.13.2 Output level
The output level refers to the signal output to individual ports.
