8. SETUP AND OPERATION OF REDMIKE
Once the REDMIKE is charged, follow these steps to set it up for use.
1. Turn the CAT 860 power on. The
blue LED will glow.
2. Remove the REDMIKE from the
charging cradle and turn it on.
3. Slip the REDMIKE with lanyard
around the neck and position the
top of the microphone just below
the collarbone. NOTE: Positioning
of the REDMIKE is critical for
proper volume adjustment.
4. While speaking in a normal voice
slowly increase the volume of the
corresponding channel on the
CAT 860 until your voice is barely
audible. Each REDMIKE has its
channel pre-set to either A or B, as
indicated on the back of the Mic.
REMEMBER: This equipment
supplements the user’s voice
so they are able to speak in a
conversational tone. Having the
volume set too high will result in
feedback and listener fatigue.
5. Once initial volume level is set,
walk around the room and listen
for audio dropout and overall
audio quality. Fine-tuning the
audio is accomplished by making
minor adjustments to the 4-Band
Equalizer on the back panel of the
CAT 860.
6. If a second REDMIKE was
purchased, repeat steps 2-4.
7. CHARGING THE REDMIKE
Before use, the REDMIKE should be charged. It will take 8-9 hours for the
REDMIKE to obtain a full charge. A fully charged REDMIKE will last for over 7
hours of use. If microphones are used daily, they should be kept in the cradle –
microphones can be left in a charging cradle constantly for up to 2 weeks without
causing degradation to battery life.
A red light on the charging cradle indicates the REDMIKE is charging. A green
light indicates that charging is complete and a full charge has been reached. A
blinking light indicates a charging or sensing error. See Troubleshooting section
for more information.
REDMIKE incorporates alkaline protection into the microphone design. Always
use a Lightspeed rechargeable sensing battery. Replacement AA NiMH batteries
may only be purchased through Lightspeed Technologies (part # BA-NH2A27).
Do not attempt to charge alkaline batteries. They can overheat and expand
creating a significant hazard and damaging the microphone (this is not covered
by warranty).
1. Plug power cord into the cradle
charger and then plug the AC end
into an electrical outlet.
2. Ensure that the REDMIKE is turned
OFF.
3. Place the REDMIKE into the
cradle. The LED on the cradle
will glow RED indicating charging
has started. When the REDMIKE
is fully charged the LED on the
cradle charger will change to
GREEN.
