the H-Top Headset of your choice.
Put on your headset.
4.2 Press the Power Button on either the

Power Indicators on the Remote and
Base will illuminate.
4.3 Depress and hold the Talk Button on the Remote Unit to
generate the "Key" signal to your console or radio. While the
Talk Button is depressed, the Talk Indicator Light will illuminate.
Releasing the Talk Button will remove the "Key" signal to

4.4 Adjust the volume from your headset by using the Listen
Volume Control.
The CA10CD is compatible with most systems on the market.
The user must initially set the Transmit Level Switch and the
Configuration Switch to the optimum settings. These switches
determine how the adapter interacts with a particular system.
4.5 The CA10CD Transmit Level Switch provides three levels:
"1" (high or carbon), "2" (medium or electret), and "3" (low
or dynamic). The standard setting is"1".
Adjusting the transmit output level by moving the

Transmit Level Switch to position 1, results in more
output.
Moving the Transmit Level Switch to position 2 or 3

reduces your output. You can further fine tune the
transmit level with the Talk
Volume Control buttons.
