Mic Gain Panel
XX
{Value 0-100}
This setting is the gain (power) value for the panel microphone built in the front panel. You can increase
or decrease the value to the optimum value. In this way you can level the gain with the Diver Mic gain to
have both on the same loudness to the audio outputs. This gain setting is before the volume control of
the Tender to Diver Volume control on the panel and final Head Gain to the Diver.
This means that you have actually 3 steps of Volume settings to the diver earphones.
The display shows the level (Black bars) of sound coming from the Panel Mic and the set value XX.
When the Tender speaks into the MIC you will see the bars increasing from left to right. Adjust the gain
so that the level bars move past the middle of the screen. Just speak at a normal arm length distance
from the panel. The Microphone is very sensitive and will pick-up all noise.
