Using Mic Kill

If the Mic Kill feature has been enabled (page 10) you can use it to deactivate all talk keys on a single channel or on all channels. This feature is useful when a remote talk key has been left on and is causing unwanted noise on a channel. Use Mic Kill as follows:

1.Tap the Mic Kill key. It will blink green.

2.Tap the Talk or Listen key for a channel to turn off all talk keys on that channel. Or, tap the All Talk key to turn off all talk keys. The key you tap will turn green and the Mic Kill signal will be sent.

3.Tap Mic Kill to exit.

Using Voice-Activated Microphone (Vox)

If you use Vox you will not have to insure that the microphone key is turned on whenever you want to talk. Activate Vox as follows:

1.Make sure the Headset and Panel Mic keys are off.

2.If you are using a headset, tap the Headset key twice to turn on headset vox. Or, if you are using a panel microphone, tap the Panel Mic key twice to turn on panel mic vox. Whichever key you tap, it will glow orange when the microphone is off and will flicker or turn green when the microphone turns on.

The Vox level may require adjustment, see “Voice-Activated Microphone (Vox) Setup”, page 30.

Incoming Call Beep On/Off

Normally, incoming calls are indicated by red-flashing Call keys. An optional beep tone can also be enabled as follows:

1.Ensure that this feature has been activated via internal switches (page 10).

2.Press and hold the Mic Kill key for about 2 seconds, then release it. It should now be glowing green to indicate that the intercom station is in programming mode.

3.Tap either Call key on the US2002 to turn the beep feature on or off. (It doesn't matter which one you tap, since this feature affects both channels.)

4.Tap the Mic Kill key to return to normal operation.
