TMAA10-11 Electret Handset
Installation Instructions
Introduction
The TMAA10-11 handset improves the audio quality in
noisy environments, and provides the user with privacy
(‘private handset mode’ programmed).
When your radio receives a call and the handset is mounted
in its locking cradle, you can hear the call from your radio’s
internal speaker, and also from any connected remote
speaker.
If you remove the handset from its cradle when you receive
a call, you can hear the call from your radio’s internal
speaker, from any connected remote speaker, and from the
handset earpiece.
If private handset mode is programmed, the radio’s internal
and external speakers are muted, and the call can only be
heard from the handset earpiece.
The TMAA10-11 uses an electret microphone, and comes
with the handset to radio cord pre-wired to the handset
mounting plate.
If fitting the TMAA10-11 handset to a TM8200 remote installation that uses components
from kit TMAA03-16, the existing head and body remote interfaces don’t support audio
feed to the microphone socket and therefore can’t be used with the handset. If fitted on
the radio, the TMAA03-16 kit can be identified by radio body interface, which doesn’t
have a connector fitted on the right-hand port. For correct operation, the installation
should be upgraded to one of the enhanced remote kits such as TMAA03-19.
Handset Installation
1 Press the push-button and remove the handset from the locking cradle.
2 Disassemble the locking cradle by removing the four locking cradle screws.
3 Drill a hole for the handset to radio cord in the chosen mounting surface, and pass the
cord through the hole. The hole must be large enough for the grommet to fit through.
If a smaller hole is required, remove the handset to radio cord from the handset PCB
connector, and drill a hole in the mounting surface just large enough to fit the handset to
radio cord.
Pass the cord through the hole, then reconnect the cord to the handset PCB connector
using the wiring instructions in the diagram “Handset PCB connector wiring”, on
page 2.
