ANNOUNCER’S CONSOLE
• Latching: If this mode is selected the
main button’s function will alternate
between its active and inactive states
whenever the main button is pressed.
Upon power up the function will be in
its inactive state and the red LED associ-
ated with the button will be lit.
• Push to Talk/Tap to Latch: This mode is
a combination of the Push to Talk and
Latching modes. It’s similar to the way
talk pushbutton switches function on
user stations associated with broadcast
or production intercom systems. If the
main button is pressed and held the main
button’s function will be active. It will stay
active until the main button is released.
If the main button is momentarily
“tapped” the main button’s status will
change, either from inactive-to-active or
from active-to-inactive. Upon Model 204
power up the main button will be in its
inactive state and its red LED will be lit.
• Push to Mute/Tap to Latch: This mode is
a combination of the Push to Mute and
Latching modes. Whenever the main
button is momentarily “tapped” the main
button’s status will change, either from
active-to-inactive or inactive-to-active.
When the main button function is active
its green LED will be lit. The audio signal
associated with the microphone input
will be routed to both the Dante main
output channel and the microphone out-
put connector. Whenever the main but-
ton is pressed and held the audio signal
will mute on both the Dante main output
channel and the microphone output con-
nector and the button’s LED will change
from green to red. It will stay in this con-
dition until the main button is released.
Upon Model 204 power up the main
button will be in its inactive state and its
red LED will be lit.
• Talkback Button: In this mode the sidet
-
one function will be active whenever the
talkback function is active and the audio
signal is present on the talkback Dante
output channel.
• Main and Talkback Buttons: In this
mode the sidetone function will be ac-
tive whenever the audio signal associ-
ated with the mic input is present on
the Dante main output channel and the
microphone output connector. The sidet-
one function will also be active whenever
the talkback function is active.
Button Operation – Main
STcontroller allows the configuration of the
main button to be selected. There are five
mode choices available:
• Push to Mute: If this mode is selected
the main button function will normally be
active and its green LED lit. The audio
signal associated with the microphone
input will be routed to both the Dante
main output channel and the micro-
phone output connector. Whenever the
main button is pressed the audio signal
will mute on both the Dante main out-
put channel and the microphone output
connector; the button’s LED will change
from green to red.
• Push to Talk: If this mode is selected
the main button function will normally
be inactive and the button’s red LED will
be lit. The audio signal associated with
the microphone input will not be routed
to the Dante main output channel and
the microphone output connector will
be muted. Whenever the main button
is pressed the audio signal will become
active on the Dante output channel and
the microphone output connector. In ad-
dition, the button’s green LED will light.
