2820A-02 & 2820A-03 CHAMBER COMMUNICATOR USER MANUAL 

 

2820A-02-UM 

REV 1.0 

4.1.4 

OPERATOR VOLUME

  –  This control sets the volume for the PANEL SPEAKER 

and operator headset. Rotate this knob clockwise to increase the volume. 

4.1.5 

PANEL SPEAKER - 

The panel speaker features a waterproof speaker that allows 

the tender to monitor conversations in the chamber. The volume level is controlled 
by the OPERATOR VOLUME control and it can be turned off using the SPEAKER 
SWITCH. 

4.1.6 

PANEL MIC

  –  A front panel mounted microphone is located next to the PANEL 

SPEAKER. It is used by the operator to communicate to chamber occupants. It is 
active when the SPEAKER SWITCH is on and the PUSH-TO-TALK SWITCH is 
pressed. 

4.1.7 

AC POWER INDICATOR

  –  This LED is used by the operator to determine if the 

communicator is being AC powered.  When the LED is off, the communicator is 
operating on battery power. 

4.1.8 

BATTERY CONDITION INDICATOR

  -  This LED is used by the operator to 

determine the available battery level.  A steady green light means that the battery 
level is sufficient to operate the unit.  When the battery reaches approximately 3 
hours of remaining life, the LED will start blinking at a rate of about once per 
second. The exact amount of time is dependent on the age and condition of the 
sealed lead acid battery. When the battery reaches its end-of-charge, the LED will 
turn off.  It is advised that the battery be connected to AC power as soon as 
possible once the BATTERY CONDITION INDICATOR starts blinking. 

4.1.9 

INNER LOCK VOLUME

 – This control sets the volume for the inner lock speaker 

and/or headsets. Rotate this knob clockwise to increase the volume. 

4.1.10 

INNER LOCK ON/OFF

  –  This switch allows the chamber operator to turn off all 

communications with the inner lock. It may be necessary to turn off the one or both 
locks in order to prevent acoustic feedback if the chamber door is open. 

4.1.11 

OUTER LOCK VOLUME

 – This control sets the volume for the outer lock speaker 

and/or headsets. Rotate this knob clockwise to increase the volume. 

4.1.12 

OUTER LOCK ON/OFF

  –  This switch allows the chamber operator to turn off all 

communications with the outer lock. It may be necessary to turn off the one or both 
locks in order to prevent acoustic feedback if the chamber door is open. 

4.1.13 

ENTERTAINMENT VOLUME (2820A-03 only)

  –  This control sets the volume for 

the audio entertainment speakers.  Rotate this knob clockwise to increase the 
volume.  The entertainment will be muted when the PUSH-TO-TALK SWITCH is 
pressed at any volume level.
