BEAM Push-To-Talk Handset Kit - User Manual 17
General Operation
(Wireless Handset only)
Power On & O
The Wireless PTT Handset and charging cradle powers on with
the BEAM Extreme Dock. Note that the Wireless PTT Handset
does not power o when the Extreme Dock is turned o. You
can manually turn o the charging cradle by pressing the front
grey button for 3 seconds and the red status LED will switch o.
You can do the same on the Wireless PTT Handset by pressing
the grey button. The handset will sound a de-escalating tone.
To power On, press the grey button and releasing the button
once the LED status lights turn on and the handset will sound
an escalating tone. The red status LED on both units will ash
momentarily and then go solid once they’re connected.
Volume Control
When you rst activate the unit you should rst ensure your
handset volume is set to a comfortable listening level. You may
then adjust the Wireless PTT Handset volume by pressing the
top right button to increase or the left to decrease. There are 5
listening levels. The minimum level is not zero but is designed so
you can still quietly hear radio trac and not inadvertently turn
o the audio.
Transmitting/Receiving
Use the handset like any two-way radio speaker microphone.
i.e. press the PTT button to talk and release to listen. A short talk
permit tone sequence will sound when activated. Speak with a
normal strong clear voice about 3-5cm (2”) from the microphone
port. Too hard or too soft will degrade the clarity of transmission.
NOTE: When the Wireless Handset is in the cradle, all
functionality is disabled and will switch to charging mode.
To make or receive calls, the user must take the Wireless PTT
Handset out of the cradle. If in use in a vehicle, please ensure to
clip the handset to your shirt for safety.
Out of Range Indication
The Wireless PTT Handset provides the user with audible
feedback should the user move out of range from their vehicle.
If you walk out of range the red status LED will ash. If you then
push the PTT an alert tone will sound to let you know your call is
not getting through. Depending on your location, you may nd
you need to walk back about 10 meters closer to your vehicle to
re-connect. The two red status LED light will then glow solid.
Talk Permit Tone
The Wireless PTT Handset provides talk permit tones so users
know when to start speaking so that words are not lost at the
start of a transmission. If, the channel is busy, no channel grant or
you are out of range, the user will hear the Wireless Handset talk
permit tones followed by the radio BUSY or Out of Range tone.
Charging Conrmation Tone
The Wireless PTT Handset provides the user with a discrete tone
whenever the handset is returned to the charging cradle. This
discrete tone ensures the user has a positive indication that the
handset is charging and seated correctly in the cradle.
Earpiece Operation
The Wireless PTT Handset provides the user with a weather
18
protected 3.5mm earpiece jack to allow use of industry
standard earpieces thereby providing additional privacy of
communications. A range of earpiece styles are available to suit
individual user preferences. Plugging in an earpiece disables the
internal loudspeaker.
Stealth Mode
For special applications the handset LED can be temporarily
disabled. This is achieved by holding down the VOLUME UP/
DOWN (both) while powering up the unit. To turn the LED
back on, simply power down and power back up.
Additional Headsets
The 6 pin industrial connector at the bottom of the wireless
handset also allows the use of a variety of heavy duty
and lightweight headsets and application specic audio
accessories to enhance your communications capability.
Use either the headset/accessory’s integral PTT or use
the wireless handset to transmit. The internal speaker is
immediately disabled when a headset is plugged in.
N.B. See page 7 for safety warning regarding use of headsets.
Accessory Mic Boost
Users can increase an audio accessory’s microphone gain
on the handset models tted with the Hirose accessory
port to cater for sensitivity requirements or variations
in headset manufacturer’s specications. To activate the
higher sensitivity, the Wireless Handset’s blue VOLUME UP
button should be held down while powering up. The user
will thereafter hear 2 short conrmation beeps at the end of
each start up tone sequence. To revert to normal sensitivity,
the unit should be powered up with the VOLUME DOWN
blue button held down.
NOTE: This does NOT aect the sensitivity of the handsets
normal internal front cover microphone.
Dock Loudspeaker Operation
(Corded and Wireless Handset)
The BEAM DriveDOCK Extreme includes the standard
loudspeaker (as used in normal Phone hands-free calling). This
loudspeaker can also be congured to provide audio in PTT
operation. This provides an extra output in addition to the
handset.
To use the DriveDOCK Extreme loudspeaker with the handset:
1. Press/hold the Dock Ringer button for 2 seconds. This
will change to the DriveDOCK Extreme loudspeaker
mode, and will be signied by playing the triple rising
tone in the DriveDOCK Extreme speaker and PTT speaker.
Also the Ringer LED will ash GREEN 3 times.
2. Audio is now set to output on both the DriveDOCK
Extreme speaker and the handset.
To revert to using the handset speaker only:
1. Press/hold the Dock Ringer button for 2 seconds. This
will change to the handset speaker mode, and will be
signied by playing the triple rising tone in the Wireless
Handset speaker (not the DriveDOCK Extreme speaker).
Also the Ringer LED will ash GREEN 3 times.
2. Audio is now set to be silent to the DriveDOCK Extreme
loudspeaker. The audio output setting is saved even
when the dock is switched o.
