GENERAL This product and related documentation must be reviewed for familiarization with safety markings and instructions before operation. This instrument was constructed in an ESD (electrostatic discharge) protected environment. This is because most of the semiconductor devices used in this instrument are susceptible to damage by static discharge. Depending on the magnitude of the charge, device substrates can be punctured or destroyed by contact or the mere proximity of a static charge. The results can cause degradation of device performance, early failure, or immediate destruction. These charges are generated in numerous ways such as simple contact, separation of materials, and normal motions of persons working with static sensitive devices. When handling or servicing equipment containing static sensitive devices, adequate precautions must be taken to prevent device damage or destruction. Only personnel who are thoroughly familiar with industry-accepted techniques for handling static sensitive devices should attempt to service circuitry with these devices. In all instances, measures must be taken to prevent static charge build-up on work surfaces and persons handling the devices. BEFORE APPLYING POWER Verify that the product is set to match the line voltage and that the correct fuses are installed. Servicing instructions are for use by service-trained personnel only. To avoid dangerous electric shock, do not perform any servicing unless qualified to do so. Adjustments described in the manual are performed with power supplied to the instrument while protective covers are removed. Energy available at many points may, if contacted, result in personal injury.

For example. without notice. attachment of any hydrophone of suitable frequency range to the BNC input permits use of the Test Set as a field demonstration and training device with a beacon up to 1000 yards away in the water. tunable in the ultrasonic range of 30 to 45 kHz. Tune Test Set for best audible signal. Permits operation into headphones. therefore. the beacon should operate according to published specifications. depending upon the type and manufacturer of the battery. Short water switch on Beacon. Dukane Corporation / Seacom Division / St. (impedance 10-ohms nominal). Beacon operation will be indicated by a pulsing. producing an output in the audible range.
