Full Featured Front Panel models also contain an internally housed speaker. Receive audio, tones,
and remote transmit audio are present at this speaker. The audio loudness can be controlled by the
rotary volume knob on the O5 control head.
The normal operation of the front panel speaker can be overridden by:
• connection of a Headset to the Consolette
• activation of MUTE_IN to the Consolette
• activation of the Speaker Mute Button

features, soft menus with custom labels, and text updates indicating the state of Consolette features.

Softmenu Buttons on the Auxiliary Display

The Consolette supports three buttons underneath its auxiliary display for accessing up to eight
softmenus. These softmenus are used to activate or control certain Consolette features, and are
programmed in the Consolette Codeplug. Each supports a label on the display that can be
customized in the codeplug by the user. The label may consist of up to four printable US-ASCII
characters. Consolette features currently supported via the soft menus are:
• Crosspatch Enable/Disable.
• Auxiliary Control Enable/Disable.
• Over-the-Air Alert Tones (L999_ Required).
• Setup functions including Clock Set and IP Address View.
There are two default key labels that are sometimes present on the softmenu keys. An "arrow" key is
used to allow the user to scroll to more softmenu items. A "home" button will back up to the previous
softmenu level.

Clock Operation

The Consolette supports a Clock on its auxiliary display for displaying the current time. The clock
shows hours and minutes and can be configured for 12 hour format or 24 hour format. It can also be
disabled completely. In 12 hour format an AM/PM indication is shown. The clock feature does not
provide the date, or seconds resolution.
