PTT Button Cough Timeout Configuration

The cough timeout is the time length the PTT button may be released before the route is closed down. When
this is enabled, the audio path is muted immediately when the PTT button is released, allowing the operator
to cough without it being broadcast. If the PTT button is then re-pressed within the cough time, the
announcement will continue as normal.
In order to configure the cough timeout proceed as follows.
1. Select Configuration System Router Inputs Mic/Line.
2. Scroll the Mic/Line input list and select the required input:
[I/P #01 – MIC/LINE 01]
