The 4W ONLY button turns on/off the 4-wire intercom alone. The 4W light above the button indicates intercom on/off status. Use the SND and RCV controls in the outlined area to adjust the 4-wire intercom send and receive levels.
Use the IC button to communicate via the intercom channel and with the DX200 base station operator, or anyone listening to a local speaker connected to the DX200 base station. Pressing IC on the Beltpac will send audio to the intercom if intercom is on.
Microphone Gain Adjustment Some users talk louder or softer than others. To allow for this, microphone gain adjustment is provided. To increase microphone gain – Press the volume-up button while holding down the ISO button in the normal operating mode. The microphone gain increase can be monitored through sidetone, or preferably by someone else on a Beltpac or at the base station.
