GoTalk Components
GoTalk refers to the complete system, which comprises different GoTalk components.
TRANSCEIVERS There are 3 types of transceivers in the GoTalk System. A transceiver is a device that can both transmit and receive signals. The 3 transceivers are: the GTA-T1 Leader unit, the GTA-T2 Sub-Leader unit, and the GTA-R Participant unit. A system must include one GTA-T1 Leader unit and any number of GTA-R Participant units, GTA-T2 Sub-Leader units, or a combination of both. The GoTalk transceivers are currently available in 863 MHz and 915/928 MHz frequencies. The 928 MHz version is primarily intended for use in Australia and New Zealand, and only the GTA-T1 Leader unit is available in this version. For the GTA-T1 and GTA-R units, the 915 MHz version is used. Please note that the 863 MHz and 915/928 MHz versions are not compatible with each other.
CHARGING OPTIONS There are 4 options for charging your GoTalk transceivers. Two trays are available: the GTA-CT6 with 6 slots and the GTA-CT12 with 12 slots. These trays are designed to sit on a counter or table, providing fast and easy access to your system. For smaller systems, there is the GTA-CU4, a 4-port USB wall charger that allows you to charge up to 4 units simultaneously. The final option is the GTACC24, a 24-slot charging case that charges, stores, and transports your system.
ACCESSORIES We offer a variety of headsets, headphones, and ear speakers. Additionally, a pouch is available for carrying the transceiver on your body, offering an alternative to the supplied lanyard.

GoTalk Definitions
GOTALK SYSTEM A general description of an entire system consisting of any number of transceivers.
PAIRING The process of establishing a link between the Leader and any number of Participant or Sub-Leader units, or a combination of both, in a GoTalk system. This process is initiated by the Leader unit.
LEADER, SUB-LEADER AND PARTICIPANT These terms describe the functions of the three different types of transceivers in a GoTalk system. A group must have one Leader unit. The GoTalk system may include any number of Participant or Sub-Leader units, or a combination of both, as needed. Please note that a GoTalk system may only contain one Leader unit.
GOTALK SECURITY The GoTalk system’s data transmission is protected by proprietary encoding. The encoding key is generated by the Leader unit and passed to other units during the pairing process. The sharing of the encoding key can be revoked by disbanding and unpairing the group from the Leader unit. This encoding ensures secure transmission within each group. For detailed instructions on pairing, see page 9.

GoTalk Unit Overview
GTA-T1 LEADER / GTA-T2 SUB-LEADER The GTA-T1 and GTA-T2 appear identical in layout. The GTA-T1 Leader unit is red, while the GTA-T2 is black. This color difference is the primary way to distinguish between them. Additionally, the display indicates their roles: “L” for Leader and “S” for Sub-Leader.
Both the GTA-T1 and GTA-T2 have dedicated talk paths, meaning they can always broadcast.
Note: When the Talkback Function is toggled off by the Leader unit, the Participant talk path becomes available to the Sub-Leaders, allowing up to two Sub-Leaders to transmit simultaneously.
Note: Remove the protective plastic film from the display.

SIDETONE The GTA-T1 Leader unit, GTA-T2 Sub-Leader unit and GTA-R Participant unit produces a sidetone. The sidetone is designed to aide the user to hear their own voice when speaking. The sidetone is a fixed value equal to 20% of the selected volume. The sidetone cannot be turned off.
BUSY TONE Participants or Sub-Leaders will be notified that no talk paths are available by a ringing sound played in their headset when they press the Talk Button. Additionally, this is indicated by the backlight of the Talk Button turning off.
TALK BUTTON The operation of the Talk Button on the GTA-T1 Leader unit and GTA-T2 Sub-Leader unit differs from that of the GTA-R Participant unit. The GoTalk system provides three talk paths: one dedicated to the GTA-T1 Leader unit, one shared between all GTA-T2 SubLeaders, and one shared between all GTA-R Participants.
On the GTA-T1 and GTA-T2 units, the Talk Button functions as a press-to-talk button, essentially muting and unmuting the unit. The user only needs to press the button to toggle between these options.
On the GTA-R, the Talk Button functions as a push-to-talk button, meaning the user must hold the button down while speaking. Releasing the button mutes the unit and frees up the shared talk path for other Participants to use.

Applications
The GoTour system can be used in a variety of applications. Some applications may require special accessories to ensure a great experience. The following are common applications for the GoTalk system: GUIDED TOURS Guided tours are one of the simplest applications for the GoTalk system, offering clear communication between the guide and participants. The system is versatile and can be used across a range of environments: REGULAR GUIDED TOURS In quieter environments such as museums, city tours, cultural excursions, or archaeological sites, where ambient noise is minimal, the GoTalk system ensures that participants can clearly hear the guide’s narration. This is especially important when the guide is sharing detailed information or stories while moving between points of interest. For these types of tours, the GoTalk system works seamlessly with lightweight headsets, allowing participants to stay engaged without the distraction of external noise. The GoTour system, designed specifically for quieter environments, is another ideal option for these types of tours, providing an excellent balance of sound quality and ease of use. FACTORY AND BUILDING SITE TOURS In noisier environments, such as factories or construction sites, where heavy machinery or construction noise can interfere with communication, the GoTalk system is equally effective with the right accessories. Safety and clarity are critical in these settings, and using noise-canceling headsets ensures participants can hear important instructions clearly, even in loud environments. For guided tours, you will need 1 Leader unit and any number of Participant and Sub-Leader units, all paired with a headset that fits your needs: Headset 1: Ideal for quiet environments such as museums or galleries. Headsets 2 and 3: Suitable for quiet to moderately noisy environments, offering more versatility for outdoor tours or spaces with some ambient noise. Headsets 4 or 5: Recommended for noisy environments, such as factories or construction sites, or when protective ear coverings are required. ASSISTIVE LISTENING The GoTalk system is portable and hearing aid compatible (HAC). It works with neck loops for those with T-Coil-equipped hearing aids, or with headphones for others with hearing loss. For two-way communication, a GTA-YS Y-split cable and microphone are required. This system ensures clear hearing for everyone in need of assistive listening support.
INTERPRETATION The GoTalk system is highly effective for various interpretation applications: Simultaneous Interpretation Real-time translation where the interpreter speaks while the original speaker is talking. This method is commonly used in conferences and large meetings. Requires 1 GTA-T1 and as many GTA-R units as needed. Consecutive Interpretation The interpreter listens to sections of the speech and then translates, used in business or legal meetings. Requires 1 GTA-T1 and as many GTA-R units as needed. Relay Interpretation Used when an interpreter translates from one language into another via an intermediary language. This setup requires multiple GTA-T1 units and as many GTA-R units as needed. Each interpreter must have a GTA-R to listen to the language being translated and a GTA-T1 to transmit to their own group.
11
Sight Interpretation Describing events or visuals for those with visual impairments, often used in theaters, cinemas, or galleries. The GoTalk system is most suitable for simultaneous, relay, and sight interpretation. Example: The original language is English, and it is interpreted into German, Spanish, and French. The German and Spanish interpreters understand and can interpret from English, but the French interpreter does not. However, the French interpreter is fluent in German and can interpret from German to French. This setup requires 4 GTA-T1 units, one for each language, and as many GTA-R units as needed. Additionally, the interpreters need a GTA-R paired with the GTA-T1 used by the language they interpret from. In the above example, the Spanish and German interpreters have a GTA-R paired with the English presenter’s GTA-T1. The French interpreter has a GTA-R paired with the German interpreter’s GTA-T1. COLLABORATION AND MEETINGS The GoTalk system enhances collaboration by acting as an intercom system in meetings. It allows seamless, real-time communication between participants, making it easy to exchange ideas and feedback without interrupting the flow of conversation. SPORTS EVENTS In sports, such as equestrian activities, skiing, and extreme sports, where coaches and athletes are often separated by large distances, the GoTalk system facilitates mid-practice communication. It can also be used between head coaches and assistant coaches to coordinate during events. EVENTS, PRODUCTION AND WIRELESS INTERCOM During events, theater productions, or similar settings, the GoTalk system functions as a small, efficient intercom, allowing team members to communicate effectively behind the scenes without disrupting the event. For smaller setups, such as film crews or retail shops, the GoTalk system can serve as a rudimentary wireless intercom using a GTA-T1 and several GTA-T2 units, ensuring seamless communication between team members. LEISURE The GoTalk system can enhance communication in leisure activities such as family holidays or motorcycle rides, where maintaining clear communication in a closed group is essential. It provides an easy way to stay connected, whether traveling or engaging in outdoor activities. SILENT MEETINGS In environments where multiple speakers are close to each other, such as trade shows or political rallies, the GoTalk system can be used without a PA system. This ensures clear communication even in noisy surroundings, allowing presenters to avoid interference and ensure their message is heard. EDUCATION In educational settings, the GoTalk system can be beneficial in several ways. Schools may use it as a tour guide system for field trips, while it can also aid students with ADHD, ADD, or Autism by helping them focus in group settings. The system allows two-way communication, enabling teachers to provide focused instruction and students to ask questions without distractions.

Product maintenance
CARE, CLEANING, AND DISINFECTING Proper care, cleaning, and disinfecting of your GoTalk system ensure its longevity and optimal performance. Follow these guidelines to maintain your devices: GENERAL CLEANING Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of your GoTalk devices with a soft, dry cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the device’s surface. Connector Cleaning: Ensure that the headset jacks and charging ports are free of dust and debris. Use a dry, soft-bristle brush or compressed air to gently clean these areas. DISINFECTING Regular Disinfection: Disinfect your GoTalk devices regularly, especially if they are shared among multiple users. Use disinfectant wipes or a cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol (70% concentration). Ensure the device is powered off before cleaning. Headsets and Accessories: Disinfect ear cushions, microphone windscreens, neckloops, and headphones with disinfectant wipes or a cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol. Allow them to air dry completely before use. CHARGING TRAYS AND CASES Cleaning and Disinfecting: Regularly clean the charging trays (GTA-CT6 and GTA-CT12) and charging cases (GTA-CC24) by wiping them with a soft, damp cloth. Disinfect the interior surfaces with disinfectant wipes or a cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol. Ensure that the charging ports are free of dust and debris by using a dry, soft-bristle brush or compressed air. Make sure the trays or cases are unplugged during cleaning and allow them to dry completely before use. STORAGE Proper Storage: Store your GoTalk devices in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity. Protective Cases: Use the provided charging cases or pouches to store and protect your devices. This helps prevent dust accumulation and physical damage. HANDLING Gentle Handling: Handle your GoTalk devices with care. Avoid dropping them or subjecting them to physical shock, which can damage internal components. Avoid Liquid Exposure: Keep your devices away from water and other liquids. If a device gets wet, dry it immediately with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry completely before use. BATTERY CARE Regular Charging: Keep your devices charged regularly. Do not let the battery discharge completely before recharging. Follow the recommended charging guidelines in the user manual. Battery Inspection: Periodically inspect the battery for signs of swelling or damage. If you notice any issues, contact a technician for a battery replacement. By following these care, cleaning, and disinfecting guidelines, you can ensure that your GoTalk system remains in excellent condition, providing reliable performance and extending the lifespan of your devices.

Troubleshooting
THE UNIT HAS NO POWER Make sure the battery is fully charged. Press and hold the power button for 2 seconds to turn it on. If this does not work, allow a technician to examine the battery and, if necessary, replace it. THERE’S NO AUDIO Check that the unit is in the same group as the Leader, Sub-Leader, or Participants you wish to communicate with. Ensure the volume is turned up so that at least one LED on the volume display is lit. Check that the headset is properly connected and plugged in all the way, and inspect the headset for any damage. I CAN’T RECEIVE A SIGNAL Ensure that the Leader, Sub-Leader, and Participants are paired and in the same group. THE AUDIO IS DISTORTED Compare with others in the group to ensure you are in the same group. Move closer to the Leader or ask the Leader to change the broadcast channel. THE BATTERY ISN’T CHARGING If using a USB charger, try another cable or try to charge another device. If placed in a charging tray, make sure the power cable is connected to the tray. Try other slots and other devices. If the problem persists, allow a technician to examine the battery and, if necessary, replace it. I CANNOT TRANSMIT Check to make sure that the Talkback Function has been toggled on from the Leader unit. Make sure that there is an available talkpath. This is indicated by the Talk Button being red. If the Talk Button is not lit up chek and make sure that no other unit is currently transmitting.
