Operation

The audio output jacks provide a mix of both
sides of the conversation. In other words, as
you talk down the handset your speech will
come back on this jack mixed with the audio
from the other side of the call. You do not need
to connect the handset to QuickTap IFB if you
only want clean audio from the phone line.

FAQ’s

? What kind of earpiece should I use with the

QuickTap IFB?

! Any standard earpiece should work fine as long

as it has an impedance greater than 600 ohms.

? I want to send the QuickTap IFB's XLR out-

put to an auxiliary input of my mixer but I'm
not getting any audio. What's wrong?

! The QuickTap IFB is a passive device that out-

puts a mic level signal. You'll need to send the
output to a mic input on your mixer.

? How do I adjust the level of the XLR output

on my QuickTap IFB?

! The attenuator on the QuickTap IFB only ad-

justs the 1/8" earpiece jack. The male XLR pro­vides a fixed level 600 ohm output.

? I'd like to use a pair of headphones with my

QuickTap IFB. Is this possible?

! The QuickTap IFB is a passive device and will

not power a pair of headphones. You'll need to
use a JK Audio RemoteAmp with it. The Re­moteAmp will take the balanced output from the
QuickTap IFB, amplify it and send it to a 1/4"
headphone jack and a 3.5 mm output jack.
