    Gen

    eral.—The binaural training

    instruments, Ml  and M2,

    are

    desi

    gned

    as an

    aid to

    selecting 

    and training

    sound-locator operators.

    The operation

     of these instruments is bas

    ed

    on the use

    of phonograph

    records which 

    closely

    reproduce

    the

    sound

    of

    different

    types

    of

    air

    craft.

    The

    pho

    tograph

    tra

    nscription e

    quipment issued  with the

    Ml

    instrument

    is similar to the tr

    anscription unit furnished with the

    M

    2

    instrument an

    d performs simila

    r

    functions. I

    n

    the

    M

    l

    instru

    ment, binaural sense

    is introduced

    by

    a phase con

    trol

    unit

    which di

    vides and directs

    the

    s

    ound to the

    listener s

    ears through

    two separate

    acoustic pat

    hs.

    In the M 2

    instrument,

    a

    n additional fe

    ature is

    pro

    vid

    ed in that a movable sound source

    may

    be

    employed in pl

    ace

    of

    the

    pha

    se control unit to permit

    training with 

    the

    actual sound

    locator under

    conditions

     

    which very

    closely simulate tho

    se of actual

    air

    craft

    tracking.

    This instrument include

    s

    the 

    transcription equipment, a phase

    control

    unit,

    helmet, assembly,

    and

    accessories.

    (1)

     

    The source of

    sound

    is the tran

    scr

    iption equipment.

    It

    consists

    essentially of

    an

    electrically driven

    turntable

     

    and

    a magnetic pick-up

    with

    an impedance

    matching net

    work.

    The  different types

    of

    transcription

    equipment as issued

    with

    instruments

    of various

    serial num

    bers are

    as

     follows:

    For

    instruments, serial Nos. to 19, inclusive—RC

    A turn

    table

    with uni

    versal electric

    motor

    and

    rubber-cushioned

    pick-up.

      . For

     instruments, serial Nos. 20 t

    o

    25, inclusive—

    Sonora

    turn

    tab

    le

    with

    universal electric motor

    and

    Aud

    ak electro-

    chromatic pick

    -up and arm.

    For

    instruments,

    serial

    Nos. 26

    and

    up—RCA

    transcription

    equipment,

    type UZ4

    21 0.

    The

    magnetic

    pick-up, through an

    impedance matching net

    work,

    i

    s

    connected

    by  a cord, assembly, B129354

    (fig. 3), to the

    receiver

    and

    cap, assembly

    (fig. 2), of the phase con

    trol unit.

    TM 9 1662

    BINAURAL TRAINING INSTRUMENTS, Ml AND

    M2

    4

    (2) (fig. 1).—The mechanical

    phase

    shifting

    is

    accomplished by

    the

    phase control unit.

    The

    sound

    from the

    receiver

    and

    cap, assembly,

    enters the

    wye, B129350

    (fig. 3),

    and

    branches

    into two

    tubes,

    B129352

    (fig. 3),

    one

    on

    the right and

    the

    other

    on the left-hand

    side of

    the

    receiver

    and cap, assembly. The sound

    in each branch

    proceeds

    through

    a slide,

    C44602

    (fig. 2), into a tube,

    B129351

    (fig. 2), and finally

    into

    a

    rubber

    tube,

    A38819

    (figs. 1 and

    11), which connects to the

    helmet of the operator.

    The operator's handwheel, C44601 (fig. 2), and instructor's

    handwheel, B16521 (fig.

    4), are both connected

    by means

    of

    friction

    couplings

    to gears

    of

    a

    differential

    which

    move

    the

    two

    slides,

    C44602

    (fig.

    2). As

    the

    slides are mutually connected

    through the

    differential, a given movement of

    one

    slide is accompanied by a

    corresponding movement of the

    other

    slide in the

    opposite direction.

    The motion of

    the

    differential arm, B129348

    (fig. 2), is trans

    mitted to

    the

    slide

    by means of the link, A38803 (fig. 2), and caps,

    A38805 and A38806

    (fig.

    3).

    The pointer, A38810 (fig. 1), which is attached to the cap,

    B129349 (fig.

    3),

    projects

    through a

    slot on

    the

    front of

    the instru

    ment.

    A

    scale

    is attached

    above

    this

    pointer

    on which

    the error

    from the

    exact

    binaural balance can be read directly.

    Each division

    on this scale corresponds

    to 3.5 mils

    on a

    sound

    locator

    having

    its

    horns

    110 inches apart.

    (3) The helmet, assembly (fig.

    5),

    Signal

    Corps,

    type HAl,

    modified

    for

    earpiece, is

    used

    with this equipment.

    The helmet is fitted

    with two

    earpieces, B129378 (fig. 5),

    one

    for

    each

    ear.

    Two rubber tubes,

    A38819

    (fig. 11), provide the connect

    ing

    medium between

    the

    earpiece of

    the

    helmet

    and

    the

    phase

    control

    unit.

    (4)

    For a

    list

    of

    accessories refer

    to Z > 3 ) below.

    This instrument includes

    the transcription unit,

    the phase control

    unit,

    helmet, assembly, and

    accessories.

    (1) The source of sound is

    the transcription

    unit (fig. 6). This unit consists

    essentially

    of

    an

    electric-driven turn

    table,

    a magnetic pick-up, cable reel

    with

    cable,

    and

    horn, assembly.

    The electric-driven

    turntable

    (fig.

    9)

    is

    provided

    with

    a

    speed

    adjustment to insure

    satisfactory

    reproduction of

    the

    record. The

    output level

    of

    the

    unit

    can be

    varied by means of

    the volume

    con

    trol

    (fig. 7) of the amplifier.

    A

    cable and

    receptacle, assembly, B138121 (fig. 6), provides

    the electrical

    connection from the

    transcription

    equipment

    to the

    horn

    (fig. 8). A reel,

    C70338

    (fig. 10), and crank, B138087,

    are

    provided

    for

    winding up the cable when it is not being used.

    The horn,

    assembly,

    C70346

    (fig.

    6),

    is

    provided with

    a

    driver

    unit and a bracket. Two pulleys are attached to the bracket to be

    used for

    moving the horn

    along

    the suspended cable or small rope.

    A

    compartment

    is

    provided

    in

    the assembly chest,

    D29352, of

    the

    transcription unit to store the horn,

    assembly, when it

    is not being

    used.

    (2) The phase control

    unit,

    D43135

    (fig.

    11), and the helmet,

    assembly

    (D43139), for the

    M2 instrument

    are identical to those used

    with

    the Ml

    instrument.

    sc

    ale, A38814 (fig.

    the

    instructor can observe the

    degree of

    which

    has 

    been

    obtained

    by

    the operator.

     7) By

     changing the

    records on the

    ption unit, the listener

    may

    be

    taught to identify
