In order to register the date of purchase so that we can keep you informed of any design improvements or modifications, it is important to complete the warranty registration document that is enclosed and return it to Sonifex Ltd in the UK, or register online at www.sonifex.co.uk/register For your own records you should write down the serial number (which can be found on the rear of the HY-03).
HY-03 complies with local requirements and must be earthed through the mains connector. Fuse Rating The HY-03 is supplied with a single fuse in the live conducting path of the mains power input. For reasons of safety it is important that the correct rating and type of fuse is used.
– this is a legal requirement. If no moulded plug has been supplied with your HY-03, please contact your supplier, because an IEC connector is always supplied from the Sonifex factory. If for any reason, you need to use the HY-03 with a different power cable, you should use the following wiring guidelines...

The HY-03 can be used for any application where a clean telephone signal is required and the line is not subject to delay. The HY-03 retains many of the features of the HY-02 and adds some additional ones. Some of the features of the HY-03 include: • Fully automatic – adapts to varying line conditions and has automatic signal limiting.

The input circuitry to the HY-03 has a very effective limiter, which will prevent high level overloading problems. Ideally, the maximum input level should not exceed +12dBu. This limiter is used for both line and mic input modes.
INTRODUCTION Using the HY-03 Receiving a Call With the equipment connected as in Figure 1-4 calls may be received and detected by the ringer in the telephone handset. To receive the call, lift the handset and establish contact with the caller. The call may be diverted to the telephone hybrid by pressing either the front panel mounted line connect switch or by means of the remote divert switch (if connected).

If you still have a problem once the k-break is disconnected, please contact Sonifex technical support (technical.support@sonifex.co.uk) Q: The signal input to the HY-03 at the input connector, is audible at the output. Why is this happening ? A: There is an option on the HY-03 which enables the input signal to be mixed with the output.
Adjusting the Output Level The Output Level Preset Pot controls the level of the output signal. Use a jeweller’s screwdriver to adjust the gain of the output stage by +8dB to –14dB to give 0dB signals at the output. HY-03 User Handbook...

Input/Output Mix Enable - SW3 When this switch is enabled (ON), the HY-03 output signal will be an equal mix of the normal output signal and the selected input signal, either Mic or Line. This is useful if, for example, you want to use the HY-03 output to record both sides of the conversation.
Adjusting the Noise Gate Threshold The noise gate is factory set to –26dBu to avoid interaction with the equipment null. To adjust the noise gate threshold, use a jeweller’s screwdriver to adjust RV4 on the main HY-03 circuit board. HY-03 User Handbook...
