Talkback Setup
Talkback is a special function that re-directs the audio 
output of the transmitter in use to a different receiver 
module when a button is pressed on the transmitter. 
The normal use is to provide a “com” channel so the 
person using the transmitter can have a direct line to 
the crew or production staff. The HH hand held trans-
mitter provides a programmable switch on the housing 
that can be configured for this function. The switch 
function is configured from the LCD menu on the 
transmitter.

As long as the button is held in, the audio will ap-
pear at the designated talkback channel rather than 
the channel used for program audio. A simple setup 
screen in the Venue 2 receiver makes it easy to des-
ignate channels with this function enabled and which 
output will deliver the talkback audio.

If multiple channels have talkback enabled and share 
the same talkback channel, the audio outputs from 
all of them will appear simultaneously (mixed) at the 
talkback output channel if multiple buttons are pressed 
at the same time.
Group Tuning
Up to 32 frequencies can be stored in each of four 
groups labeled U, V, W and X. The groups are com-
monly used to make setup easier for specific locations 
and purposes.
A setup screen is provided to assign each receiver to a 
particular group. The group frequencies can be edited 
by selecting MODIFY GRP.
