5.4.2 

FULL DUPLEX (4-WIRE) 

To  connect  the  diver  in  Full  Duplex  (4-Wire)  mode,  connect  the  communication 
umbilical  wires  to  the  DIVER  MICROPHONE  and  DIVER  EARPHONE  jacks  as 
shown in wiring diagram in section 3.6. If the umbilical uses a banana plug, simply 
insert  the  plug  into  the  correct  binding  post  jack.  Verify  that  it  is  firmly  and 
completely  seated.  This  may  require  that  the  external  plastic  nut  be  tightened.  If 
the  umbilical  uses  bare  wire  ends,  loosen  the  external  plastic  nut  of  the  binding 
post jack. Either insert the  bare end of the  wire  into the hole in the metal shaft of 
the binding post or firmly wrap the wire around the shaft. Tighten the nut until the 
bare  wire  is  firmly  fastened  by  the  nut.  The  nut  should  not  be  fastened  on  the 
insulation  of  the  wire  nor  should  any  of  the  bare  wires  touch.  If  the  AUDIO 
AUXILIARY  INPUT  is  to  be  used  to  deliver  entertainment  to  the  diver,  then  the 
diver  must  be  wired  in  Full  Duplex  (4-Wire)  mode.  The  diver  microphone  will  be 
louder in Full Duplex (4-Wire) mode than in 2-Wire mode. This can be a significant 
advantage when using longer dive umbilical cables. 

To use Full Duplex (4-Wire) mode, the tender must use a headset and connect per 
the  instructions  in  3.2.  The  tender  will  have  to use  the  PUSH-TO-TALK  BUTTON 
to communicate if the diver is in 2-Wire mode. The tender can also use the PUSH-
TO-TALK BUTTON to cut off the AUDIO AUXILIARY INPUT signal from the diver 
even  if  the  tender  is  connected  in  Full  Duplex  (4-Wire)  mode.  When  the  tender 
uses a headset, the SPEAKER  SWITCH should be turned off to prevent acoustic 
feedback. Acoustic feedback can also be avoided by moving the tender away from 
the 2810E by using the Amron Model 2822-28 Remote Walk-and-Talk Module. In 
this  way,  the  PANEL  SPEAKER  can  allow  other  members  of  the  diving  crew  to 
monitor the dive operation or to communicate to the diver by pressing the PUSH-
TO-TALK BUTTON and talking into the speaker. 

5.4.3 

SETTING THE VOLUME CONTROLS 

5.4.3.1

talk to each other during Tender adjusting volume controls as below: 

DIVER  TO  TENDER  VOLUME  -  While  diver  is  talking,  tender  adjusts 
this volume control to a comfortable hearing level.
