Troubleshooting
No sound from the amplifier
Check that the 9v battery is installed correctly or the 12v power cable is securely connected and receiving power. Ensure headsets are properly plugged into the amplifier.
Static or intermittent audio
Verify all cable connections are firm. Check for any damage to the cables or connectors. Ensure the battery is not low.
One side of the communication is too loud/quiet
Adjust the individual volume controls for the driver and co-driver to achieve the desired balance.
