Adjusting Headset / Microphone and Securing Cable
The headset consists of an earpiece, a microphone, a clothing clip and a cable. The headset attaches to the audio cable
end of the voice cable which attaches to the HX3.
Do not twist the microphone boom when adjusting the microphone. The microphone should be adjusted to be about two
finger widths from your mouth.
Make sure the microphone is pointed at your mouth. Note the small “Talk” label near the mouthpiece. Make sure the Talk
label is in front of your mouth. The microphone cable can be routed over or under clothing.
Under Clothing
Leave the cable exposed only at the top of the collar. Be sure to leave a small loop of cable to allow movement of your
head.
Over Clothing
Use clothing clips to hold the cable close to your body. Tuck the cable under the belt, but leave a small loop where it goes
under the belt. Do not wear the cable on the front of your body. It may get in your way or get caught on protruding objects.
Connecting the Cable to the Battery
To connect the cable to the battery, complete the following steps:
Hold the battery with one hand with the connector facing up.
3. Holding the battery connector cable end in your other hand, press the battery cable connector down onto the battery
connector, making sure the connectors line up.
Connecting the Ring and Battery Cables
The battery cable and the ring scanner/imager cable should not be exchanged or replaced in a dirty, harsh or hazardous
environment. When the tethers are disconnected, any dust or moisture that adheres to the tether connector can potentially
cause damage upon cable re-connection.
