Voice Activated Intercom (VOX) feature allows "hands free" com-
munication between headsets connected to the UltraSound unit.
Start speaking and the intercom turns on instantly to relay your
message clearly to the other headsets. Stop talking and it turns off
to reduce background noise.
Up to Twelve Headset Positions can be connected to the Ultra-
Sound unit models UT-12S and UT-12D. More headset positions can
be achieved by wiring additional jacks in parallel. Only one headset,
however, can be plugged into paralleled jacks at one time. In the
case of the Driver, he plugs his headset into his jack while driving.
He then unplugs and plugs into the Driver's Auxiliary jack when he
arrives on scene.
