INSTALLATION
(1) Turn the radio off. Installation of the surveillance kit
while the radio is on may cause the radio to transmit
constantly, locking up your radio system. If this should
happen, turn off the radio. The radio can then be turned
back on, restoring normal operations.
(2) Remove any dustcaps or covers from the radio
accessory connector.
(3) Attach the surveillance kit to the radio accessory
connector.
(4) Tighten mounting thumbscrew if required. Install radio
accessory clamp if required
To change the surveillance component parts refer to the
exploded view (see Figure 1) and proceed as follows:
a) To change eartips on an acoustic tube detach the
eartip from the elbow. Position the replacement eartip
over the elbow and press firmly on the eartip to secure.
b) To
change to a noise attenuating assembly
on
an acoustic tube assembly or to change eartubes on a
noise attenuating assembly, detach the eartip or eartube
piece from the elbow. Position the tube end of a new
eartube piece from a noise attenuating plug kit over the
elbow and press firmly on the eartube to secure.
c) To
replace an acoustic tube assembly
,
simply
grab the base of the unit and turn a 1/4 turn to the left and
gently pull out the acoustic tube.
d) To
change earphones,
gently pry the acoustic
tube adapter away from the earphone by sliding a thin
object between the adapter and the earphone. Work the
thin object around the circumference of the earphone to
free adapter. Detach the cable connector from the
earphone. Reconnect the accessory cable connector to
the new earphone by snapping firmly in place. Snap the
acoustic tube adapter onto the earphone.
OPERATION
Turn the radio on and operate it as explained in the
operating instructions supplied with the radio. Installing the
surveillance kit bypasses the radio’s speaker and routes the
output to the earphone’s speaker. When using the optional
remote push-to-talk and microphone, the remote mic is
enabled and on most radios, the radio’s microphone is
disabled.
MAINTENANCE
OTTO recommends the periodic cleaning of the eartip
with a mild soap and water solution to extend the life of
the accessory. OTTO also recommends the proper
storage of the accessory away from high temperature
conditions to prolong the life of the accessory.
HEARING PROTECTION WARNING
OTTO Communications products are designed to produce a spe-
cific audio output level at maximum rated power. Many countries
now have regulations defining the amount of noise that an indi-
vidual can be subjected to during a normal workday. The dura-
tion of exposure, the level of audio output and the level of ambi-
ent noise will affect compliance to these regulations. Compliance
is application dependent and standards vary. It is the SOLE
RESPONSIBILITY of the end user to determine applicability of
and compliance to local hearing protection regulations.
In addition, if purchasing any OTTO accessories which use
earphone kits, it is the SOLE RESPONSIBILITY of the user to
determine proper fit. Always use caution when inserting any of
the products into your ear.
