Make Receive-Only Loud Speaker Mode the
Default
If a test set has factory defaults, and you put it in the
off-hook mode and press
turns on. If you then press
Loud Speaker is enabled temporarily. When the
Receive-Only Loud Speaker is enabled, the
speakerphone microphone turns off and the test set
can only receive audio signals – it cannot transmit any
audio signals. Receive-only is preferred when your
main concern is to listen to the line and you do not
want ambient noise such as caused by a passing car to
switch the Speakerphone into transmit mode.
If you frequently have two-way conversations, then
you probably want the Speakerphone to be the
default mode for the speaker. If you mostly listen when
the speaker is on, then you may want the Receive-Only
Loud Speaker to be the default mode for the speaker.
