Using TalkMaster
11
Any intercom that tries to contact the console is sent a message indicating that no one is
available to take their call. Please see Unattended Console for more information.
Clicking the Cancel button returns the console to normal operation.
Listen Mode
The Listen Mode determines if the Listen button is automatically turned on when the Talk
button is turned off.
If Call Announcement is enabled in menu Admin
Preferences - Options, this option is set
to Automatic and cannot be changed.
When set to Automatic, the Listen button is automatically turned on when the Talk button is
turned off. This allows the intercom user to operate in a "hands free" mode.
When set to Manual, the Listen button must be activated by the TalkMaster™ operator or by
pressing the PTT button on the intercom.
This setting is saved between TalkMaster sessions.
Example of using Listen mode Automatic
Please note that the following example uses the option of holding the Space Bar to activate the
Talk button. Please see menu Admin-Preferences-options tab for an alternate method of
