SECTION 3
ADJUSTMENT AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 GENERAL
This section contains information for operating the Magnacom
®
SW-1000-SC
through-water transceiver.
3.2 INSPECTION OF EQUIPMENT
Upon arrival of the equipment, inspect the shipping container for dents, gouges,
or any other evidence of rough handling.
The Magnacom
®
transceiver should be visually inspected upon removal from the
shipping container. If any damage is evident, immediately le a claim with the
carrier. Forward a copy of the damage claim to OTS, Santa Ana, CA. Arrangements
for repair or replacement will then be made.
NOTE: Although the Magnacom is rugged in design, care should be exercised
to ensure that problems are not caused by improper handling. Store the unit in
a safe, secure area after unpacking.
3.3 OPERATING PROCEDURES
STEP 1: Ensure the batteries are charged and all o-rings are free of debris and in
good condition.
STEP 2: Ensure all internal settings are properly adjusted (squelch, VOX, channel,
etc.). See Section 3.4 (Adjustments).
STEP 3: Connect the standard (non-coiled cord) Hi-Use
®
connector from the SW-
1000-SC to the Hi-Use
®
connector on the FFM or LAR V Adapter. Standard EMA-2
earphone-microphone assemblies will not work with the SW-1000-SC transceiver.
Only the assemblies designed for the transceiver will operate.
STEP 4: Immerse the diver unit in a pail of water (if testing 2 units, place each in
a separate pail of water). Separate the pails to a distance of approx. 6 feet. When
immersed, verify the red LED is illuminated—indicating power is activated. To
activate the unit, use a paper clip, bent over and in contact w/ both water activation
screws.
WARNING: Minimal operation through-air is possible, but not recommended.
Conditions may arise where transmitter amplication can occur and cause
permanent damage to the unit(s).
