Pa/Fog Operation - Standard Horizon MATRIX GX2100 Owner's Manual

10.11 PA/FOG OPERATION

The GX2000/GX2100 has a 30W Hailer built-in and can be used with any 4
Ohm PA Horns. Standard Horizon offers a small and a large PA horn called the
220SW and 240SW. When in Hail mode the PA speaker Listen's Back (acts as
a microphone and sends sound to the front panel speaker and the speaker
mic: GX2100 only) through the PA horn speaker which provides two-way com-
munications through the PA horn speaker.
When in PA or FOG mode, the GX2000/GX2100 will receive communi-
cations on the last selected VHF channel before entering into the PA or
FOG mode and receive DSC calls.
PA HAIL mode:
PA HAIL mode allows the transceiver to be used as a power hailer when an
optional STANDARD HORIZON 220SW or 240SW HAIL/PA speaker is in-
stalled. The Hail mode has a listen-back feature (GX2100 only) which pro-
vides two way communication through the HAIL/PA speaker.
FOG HORN mode:
Automatic signaling is transmitted through the HAIL/PA speaker. When the
Fog horn, Bells or Whistle signal is not being outputted the GX2100 listens
back through the connected PA Horn speaker (GX2000 does not have
listen back).
