MODEL 205
ANNOUNCER’S CONSOLE
Model 205 power up the audio signal will
be in its muted state.
• Push to Talk/Tap to Latch: This mode is
a combination of the Push to Talk and
Latching actions. It’s similar to the way
in which talk pushbuttons function on
user stations associated with broadcast
or production intercom systems. If the
main pushbutton is pressed and held the
audio signal associated with the Dante
main output channel and the microphone
output connector will become active and
remain active until the pushbutton is
released. If the main pushbutton is mo-
mentarily “tapped” the audio signal will
change state. Upon Model 205 power up
the audio signal will be in its muted state.
• 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” its status
will alternate between active and muted.
When the main button’s function is ac-
tive and the main button is pressed and
held the audio signal will mute on both
the Dante main output channel and the
microphone output connector. It will stay
in this condition until the main button is
released. Upon Model 205 power up the
main button will be in its muted state and
its red LED will be lit.
Talkback Button Modes
Depending on the selected configuration,
the talkback pushbuttons will function in one
of three possible modes:
• Push to Talk: If this mode is selected the
audio signal associated with a Dante talk-
back output channel is normally muted.
The audio signal will become active
whenever its associated talkback push-
button is pressed and held.
• Latching: If this mode is selected the
audio signal associated with a Dante
talkback output channel will alternate be-
tween its active and muted states when-
ever its associated talkback pushbutton
is pressed. Upon Model 205 power up
the Dante talkback output channels will
be in their muted state.
• Push to Talk/Tap to Latch: This mode is
a combination of the Push to Talk and
Latching actions. If a talkback pushbut-
ton is pressed and held the audio sig-
nal associated with its Dante talkback
output channel will become active until
the pushbutton is released. If a talkback
pushbutton is momentarily “tapped” the
audio signal on its associated Dante
talkback output channel will change
state. Upon Model 205 power up the au-
dio signals on the Dante talkback output
channels will be in their muted state.
Remote Control Inputs
The Model 205 allows two switches or
contact closures to be connected to the
remote control inputs. Whether or not they
are utilized will depend on the selected ap-
plication. If signals are connected to either
or both of the remote control inputs how
they function will depend on the configura-
tion settings. The configuration selections
are performed using STcontroller with the
default setting for both remote control
inputs being off. The remote control inputs
can be individually configured to dupli-
cate the action of one of the pushbutton
switches with choices of main, talkback 1,
or talkback 2. When a remote control input
is enabled it will cause an action identical
to that caused by pressing or tapping the
related pushbutton switch. For example, if
remote control input 1 is assigned to the
main pushbutton function and that push-
button is configured for latching mode,
