Sensear SP1R Headset Information User Manual

INTRODUCTION

The SP1R is a state-of-the-art hearing protection (ie protects against harmful noise) communication system that allows you to retain situational awareness while remaining in full contact with your two-way radio communication device.

Situational awareness is provide by processing technology and environmental microphones mounted within the earbuds.

The SP1R headset draws power from the two-way radio. It must be connected by the appropriate SRCK7(XXX) radio cable to utilize both the situational awareness and two-way radio communications

SRCK7(XXX) part numbers vary depending on the radio connector and are sold separately. For language translated manuals and further information please visit www.sensear.com.

The SP1R is designed to be worn with the main housing attaching to the belt or pant seam, and the Inline PTT attaching to the shirt / upper garment.
