Battery should be a 9volt<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">alkaline one, rechargeable batteries will last shorter. The autonomy with<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">the alkaline battery (receiving mode) is around 30 hours with 30 minutes of<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">low battery alarm (one “beep” every 30 seconds)starting when voltage<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">goes below 6.8volt.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Antenna: It consist of a 10 meter cable directly connected to the main<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">unit, at the bottom end there is the ceramic antenna, made to transmit<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">and receive ultrasound to a frequency of 32.768 kHz.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">PTT button: it is a magnetic one, positioned right below the headset<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">connector on the main unit</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Headset and microphone assembly with adjustable volume.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Metal clip to attach the unit to the belt of the operator.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">8 Pin plug to connect the headset with microphone.G.divers Communications unit manual rel.1.3 September 2010 17</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">2. Attaching the surface unit to the belt<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">The M100 G.divers is designed to comfortable and easy to use. The main unit can be<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">clipped to a belt or jacket, giving the operator an increased range of motion from other<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">surface units.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">3. Checking before use<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Once the battery has been installed and you have checked that the cap and cover have<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">been closed properly, insert the headset with microphone in the plug on the main unit,<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">the M100 G.divers will turn on automatically. You will hear a “beep” indicating<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">activation.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Run a finger along the black cylinder at the bottom side of the antenna.

You should also be able to hear<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">the communication when the unit is not immersed in water.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">If you hear a repeated “beep” (about every 30 seconds) this means that the battery is<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">running low.

Basic Instructions for communicate with divers underwater</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The following is the recommended operating procedure:<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Ensure the battery is properly installed with the correct polarity.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Close the battery compartment. You can use some grease to make this<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">operation easier.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Attach the main unit to a secure place on your person such as a belt.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Lower the transducer into the water. If you are on a boat, lower the<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">transducer until it clears the hull. Under non circumstances should the<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">transducer lie on the sea floor, this will reduce the signal strength and<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">range.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Connect the headset to the main unit, the unit turns on automatically upon<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">connection.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">The unit is now in the receiving mode. To send a message push and hold<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">the PTT button located on the main unit. After a short “beep” you may<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">begin speaking. When you release the button, the unit will return to<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">receive mode.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">To improve the communication quality set the antenna the near as possible<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">to diver’s depth.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">It is important that the transducer does not lay on the bottom<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">When speaking to divers, keep in mind that they have a lot of things going<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">on while underwater. It is better to have divers attention before starting<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">the communication.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Talk slowly and clearly<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Do not make long sentences.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">A good exercise is to make them repeat what they understood.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">CAUTION:<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Do not get the headset wet<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Do not put the unit underwater, it will not function as an underwater unit<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">Do not attempt to keep the PTT button permanently depressed! You will not be<br style="box-sizing: border-box;">able to receive messages from the divers and you may damage the unit.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><br></p><br>Sent from my iPad</div><div><br>On 14/07/2018, at 10:23 AM, via Personal_Submersibles <<a href="mailto:personal_submersibles@psubs.org">personal_submersibles@psubs.org</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)"><style><!--
