Page 9: Product Introduction And Overview
Product Introduction and Overview AMI’s new “X2” VDR / S-VDR and the associated interfaces have been developed using expertise gained over two decades in marine electronics design, interfacing and retransmission. The result is a system designed and built in the UK that not only meets the mandatory regulations, but offers more flexibility, functionality and features to the end user than ever before. - Page 10 MIC-0005 - External MIC-0006 - Internal The X2 microphones have been designed with high quality audio and easy installation in mind. Using noise reducing 600Ω balanced audio for the clearest possible recording the audio clarity is second to none. The built-in auto test ensures all microphones are functioning correctly, giving a visual indication on the TSM in the event of a failure.
