IC6100 Section OPERATION General Description Information in this section consists of functions and operations for the IC Amplifier Unit. The IC Amplifier Unit does not have any operator accessible controls. All settings and adjustments to the operating parameters are made by the Configuration Software CSW6100-X.
IC6100 3.4.3 Fix Input Channels (Warning audio tones) The Intercom Amplifier Unit supports three direct input channels with input sensitivity adjustable from 5V – 40 V, and three direct input channels with input sensitivity adjustable from 2.5V – 20V under main volume control.
IC6100 3.4.8 Other discrete Activation Inputs The IC6100 supports a selective call activation input. This input can be enabled or disabled by the configuration. Its function will be similar that of the Alert tone 2 input control line. 3.4.9 Winchman operation The Winchman functionality can be assigned to any headset port without installed physical ACU by the configuration setup.
