5 Frequently Asked Questions

GN 8210 is a digital amplifi er - can I use with both analogue and digital
telephone systems?
• Yes, the GN 8210 works with both analogue and digital telephone systems.
Why can't I hear a dial tone when the headset is on?
• Make sure you have inserted both the headset and handset cords into the
appropriate sockets located on the rear of GN 8210.
• Make sure the handset/headset switch is in headset position.
• You may have the telephone termination switch in a position that does not
correspond with your telephone. Lift the amplifi er top cover and move the telephone
termination switch to another position.
Why does the other party have a hard time hearing me?
• Make sure that the mute switch is in talk position.
• Check the position of the headset microphone boom arm and make sure it is placed
approximately 2 cm from your mouth.
• The transmit volume control may be set too low. Lift the amplifi er top cover and
adjust the transmit volume clockwise to a higher number.
• You may have the telephone selector switch in a position that does not correspond
with your telephone. Lift the amplifi er top cover and move the telephone selector
switch to another position.
Why do I have a hard time hearing the other party or why does he/she sound dif-
ferent?
• Depending on your selected audio mode, the incoming volume may seem low com-
pared to what you are used to.
• If you have selected TT-4 Protection mode (setting C), you should be aware that
this mode is a very strict protection standard, designed to enhance your protection
against acoustic shrieks. By providing this protection the standard does not allow
high-pitched sounds and high volume levels to get through to your ear. This can
infl uence the level and the sound of the conversation, but your ears should typically
adjust to this mode after a short time.
