Notes to specification

  1. Measurements of dBu are dB with respect to 0.775 Volts
  2. The unit may be operated from an external supply between 6 and 12 volts DC (maximum) at 50 mA peak. The recommended voltage is 9 volts. The supply for each unit should be fully floating and regulated
  3. A fitted belt clip is available to special order

Low Battery warning
Red LED
Connector
External DC supply
On switch on the LED should illuminate for about half a second and go out. The LED lights longer the more discharged the battery until it remains on continuously, indicating the battery is no longer serviceable and should be changed. This is also true if the LED illuminates during use. If the LED fails to illuminate at all then the battery is completely discharged.
