3. Replace the battery cover.

Choosing Receiver Audio Output Routing

Talk switch routing is configured in the channel menu of the receiver.

The configuration options let you switch the following receiver outputs by pressing the button:

• XLR
• TRS
• AES3
• Dante

1. From the channel menu of the receiver select: Advanced > Talk Switch/Output Routing.
2. Use the control wheel to select output routing options:
   • Normal: Output will follow the On/Off selections when the button is released ◦ Pressed: Output will follow the On/Off selections when the button is pressed
3. Select Exit to save and return to the channel menu.
   
   Note: In the example shown, pressing the button turns on the XLR output and turns off the TRS output.

Assigning a Talk Switch to a Transmitter

To enable remote control, the talk switch needs to be assigned using the Talk Sw parameter of the transmitter menu.

1. Navigate to the Utilities menu of the transmitter and select Talk Sw.
2. Select O to add a talk switch.
3. Press the talk switch button twice to assign the talk switch. The display will show the talk switch model name to confirm assignment.
