Although the volume control can be set to minimal, the audio on the speaker will always remain in the background, if there is activity on the line. At the moment the send button (hand or foot switch) is activated, the receive audio from the selected or unselected lines (monitoring function), will be blocked on the headset and Speaker.

The C-FACE will be connected to the F-Box using standard shielded LAN patch cable (FTP). The F-Box will connect to the C-Box (Iris), using a standard 10/100 Mbit Ethernet LAN connection.
