Vitec Group Communications can offer three different types type of microphones -
100mm, 340mm and 490mm goosenecks.
All panels are available with XLR 5 or DIN 5 headset connection.
3.11.2 Headset Socket (XLR 5 or DIN 5)
The 5 pin Headset Socket is used to connect an optional headset for use when the optional microphone
and loudspeaker are not required.
(Headsets should be used in areas where a number of control panels are used in close proximity, this
should avoid any possibility of howlround (audio feedback) occurring).
Consult the Vitec Group Communications Installation Guide for further details.
3.11.3 Direct Access Key (DAK)
The 4000 Series Panels have Direct Access Key (DAK) pushbuttons. These DAKs are used to make
Listen and/or Talk routes to and from the Control Panel or other audio connections. The DAK can also
be assigned to trigger a control event from either the Control Panel or the matrix.
The pushbutton operation is selectable from a range of options and set via the Configuration and Master
Assignment Programming System (CMAPSi) workstation software. The pushbutton actions include:
Latch
Non-Latch
Latch/Non-Latch
Dual Talk/Listen
Interlock Group
The Direct Access Keys can be programmed with a range of attributes as set in the Configuration and
Master Assignment Programming System (CMAPSi) workstation software. The pushbutton attributes
are:
Talk Only

4000 Digital Series

Table 19: PD4294R DAK Operation
When a DAK is pressed and released, it latches in the engaged posi-
tion. Pressing the DAK again disengages it.
When a DAK is pressed and held depressed, it automatically disen-
gages when released.
A combination of the two above such that a quick press will latch the
button and a slow press will be the non-latch action.
When a DAK is momentary pressed, it makes a latched Listen Route.
The DAK can then be pressed and held to make a Talk Route at the
same time, and released to unmake the Talk Route. A second
momentary press disengages the DAK and the latched Listen Route.
A DAK can be assigned to any one of eight interlock groups A - H.
Within an interlock group only one DAK may be active at any one
time. If a DAK in a given group is pressed whilst another DAK in the
same group is already active the currently active key is deactivated
and the key pressed becomes active.
Table 20: PD4294R Pushbutton Attributes
A single DAK press causes an audio route to be made from the
source panel to the desired destinations. Normally used for communi-
cation from one panel to another.
