SYSTEM INSTALLATION
Unpacking Your System
Location of the Receiver/Amplifier
IR Sensor Placement
Place the 850iR on a flat surface like a
bookcase, countertop or optional Light-
SPEED wall shelf (part#AC-800WB).
• Select a location that is close to a
standard wall electrical outlet.
• Wires will be routed back to the
amplifier, so select a location that is
free from obstructions that may make
routing wire difficult. (Example: under
a whiteboard or bulletin board.)
Sensor location is very important for
optimum performance of the 850iR
Classroom Amplification System.
• BEST: On the ceiling at or near the
middle of the classroom.
• GOOD: High and centered on the
long wall.
• AVOID: Locations in corners, on
walls at heights lower than 7 feet,
or in places where the line of sight is
or could be obstructed.

• Ensure that you have received
all of the components of

Fine-tuning the Graphic Equalizer:
1. Verify that the EQ is set to match the recommended setting for the specific
speakers installed in the classroom (settings included with the speaker install guide).
2. Walk around room (near speakers) and listen for squealing or feedback.
3. Lower the 2K5 and/or 4K sliders if a high-pitched squealing is present.
4. Lower the 400 or 700 sliders if a low-pitched ring is present.
5. Reduce volume if feedback is still present.
