12 LES 600 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
These helpful suggestions are provided to maximize the
successful use of your new Classroom Amplification system:
Involve your students in this new process right from the
beginning. When setting the volume, ask the students,
“What is the correct volume?” (Each level will seem
“louder” for them than you.) Ask, “When should we use
the hand-held microphone?” Some teachers introduce the
system by passing the hand-held microphone around the
room for each student to say hello.
With the Lavaliere and Flexible Collar Microphone,
position the microphone so that it is 4-5 inches from your
mouth. This allows a good signal to be picked up yet is
far enough from the mouth to minimize extraneous noises
generated during speech. Keep the foam cover on the
microphone to help reduce additional noise.
Speak in a natural voice. A normal conversational speech
level should provide an adequate speech signal. It is not
necessary to increase the intensity of your voice because
the FM system is providing adequate amplification
(approximately 5-10 dB) above your normal voice level.
Avoid wearing jewelry that may rub or knock against the
microphone or mic cord and produce unwanted noise.
Find a safe, secure place away from excessive heat, cold
or dampness for overnight storage of the Transmitter and
Hand-held Microphone. Do not wrap the cord around the
Transmitter.
Use the on/off control on the Transmitter to mute the
system when needed (such as during private conversations
with a student, parent, or other classroom visitor). Since
this equipment is sometimes capable of transmitting more
than 100 feet, private conversations in the hallway, in the
staff room or on the playground may also be broadcast to
the class if the Transmitter is not turned off!
