Ocean Technology Systems Ear/Microphone Installation guide

  • Hello! I've reviewed the Ocean Technology Systems installation instructions for the EMD-2 microphone into the M-48 full face mask. The document details the steps for cutting the microphone port, installing the microphone, adjusting the earphones, and ensuring proper microphone positioning. I'm ready to answer your questions about this installation process.
  • What tools are needed to cut the microphone port?
    How should the microphone be positioned?
    What should the orientation of the logo on the earphones?

INSTALLATION OF THE EMD-2 (911060-067) INTO THE M-48 FULL FACE MASK
1. Place the mask and EMD-2 in front of you.
2. Remove the pod from the M-48 mask.
3. Locate the left microphone port on the M-48 mask.
4. Using a sharp Exacto™ knife or scissors, very carefully cut away and remove the center portion of the
microphone port.
5. Install the mic into the mic port. (The mic will
appear to be too large, but the seal easily stretches.) 6. Pull the mic and mic port into place. The mic will
end up in the corner of the mouth. Ensure the mic
mount is fully inserted into the mask port.

7. Install a large tie wrap, ensuring that the end will
not be touching the diver’s face. 8. Feed the M-48 harness straps through the EMD-2
earphone holders and adjust the position of the
earphones. The arrow on the OTS logo should be
pointing downward; the snap faces forward, toward
the mask. Note: If you remove the earphones from
the holders, the soft, shiny side faces toward the ear.
9. Bend the pod area away from the mask and run the
earphone cable through the groove between the pod
area and mask. It should fit snugly into the groove.
10. Adjust the mic to the correct position. The mic must
be less than ¼” from the diver’s lips and must clear
the side of the mouthpiece. Reposition the mic as
needed to the side of the mouth. Reinstall the pod.
