Headset Speakers - Carefully
fit so that the speaker is exactly opposite the ear. The
Velcro® usually adheres to the helmet lining. If not,
sew or glue the loop Velcro® to the helmet lining. I
prefer my speakers behind the lining of my helmet as it is more comfortable
on my ears and they tend to better stay in place. Experiment
to see which you prefer.
Headset Microphone
- Full Face- Fix the microphone using the already fastened
to the microphone MUST be no more than 10mm from your lips.
Headset Microphone
- Open Face - Shape the microphone arm base to the shape
of the helmet taking care to ensure that there is no gap between
the microphone arm base and the helmet. Wipe the microphone
arm base with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Also,
clean the area of the helmet where the microphone is to mount. Fasten
the microphone arm base in postion on the helmet usuing the double
sided adhesive pad provided. The microphone MUST be no
more than 10mm from your lips. The driver and co-driver
headsets both have the microphone toward the center of the vehicle
for convenience in connecting to the intercom.
All Headsets - IMPORTANT - The
white clip should be fastened to the side of the helmet to serve as
a strain relief for the headset cables. If it is no used,
premature failure of the headset is a certainty. Also insure
that you always UNPLUG the headset from the intercom before exiting
the vehicle. Failure to do so will result in premature
failure of the headset.
Amplifier
- Connect the red wire to a source of +12 volts and connect
the black wire to the negative battery terminal. To minimize
groud or power loop static from noise sources in the car, route the
power cable well away from any other wires and connect directly to
the positive battery terminal. Fuse the positive lead
directly after the battery.
Radio Input Socket
- The input socket on the back of the Club amplifier can
be connected via a 3.5mm phono jack to the loud speaker output of
your VHF/UHF/Business Band/CB. On the Professional model,
the radio loudspeaker can be connected via the 7 pin DIN plug using
the optional Pro Radio Control's wiring harness. With
the intercom volume set for normaloperaton, adjust the radio volume
to give the desired volume on the headsets. On the Professional
model, the radio input can be switched on/off using the switch marked
RADIO
Audio Output (Professional
Model Only) - The 3.5mm socket on the rear of the unit is
provided as an audio input to video camera or tape recorder. The
voices of both crew members will be recorded. If a radio
is connected using the Radio Controls harness, the radio conversation
will be recorded as well.
2 way Radio Interface (Professional
Model Only) - It is recommended that a competent Radio Engineer
perform this installation. Included with the Pro Radio
Controls Harness is a push button and cable to be connected to the
pins on the radio which are normally connected to the Push-to-Talk
switch on the radio microphone unit. The wire marked
"Microphone" is connected to the pins normally connected to the microphone
of the radio. The wire marked "Loudspeaker" is connected
to the loudspeaker output socket of the radio. When all
connections have been checked and polarities verified, plug the 7
pin DIN connector into the socket on the Pro Amplifier. Press
th PTT button to transmit to another radio and adjust the small potentiometer
(labeled "MIC ADJUST") on the rear of the amplifier until the best
sound reporduction is obtained.
