Volume Reset Override
On the bottom of the XL50, there is a Volume Reset
Override switch. When this is set to “On” the
Boost function is automatically enabled every time
the phone is picked up. In standard use, when the
Override is set to “Off” the Boost function will turn
off after the phone is hung up. Setting this switch
to “On” is suggested if all the users of the phone
need the amplification. Setting this switch to “Off”
is useful when people with varying hearing ability use
the phone. See Figure B.
Clarity Power Volume Control
The Clarity Power Volume Control adjusts the level
of volume the handset both in Boost or non-Boost
modes. The volume dial provides up to 15dB of
volume before the BOOST button is activated. Once
the BOOST button is pressed, the XL50 will provide
up to 60dB of gain. See Figure C.
TONE Switch
Adjusting the TONE switch allows you to customize
your hearing experience. Since we all have different
hearing preferences we suggest exploring each
setting to find the one most comfortable for you.
The available settings are: low frequency amplifica-
tion, flat amplification, Clarity Power (high frequency)
amplification, and Multi-band Compression (high
frequency) amplification. See Figure D and the over-
view of tone settings featured on pages 12-13.
