Position the aerial under the counter using either the provided P-clips or another fixing method of your choice. See the diagram below for recommended positioning.  A is the optimum layout for a counter hearing loop. B and C are acceptable only if A is not possible and the layout is aligned so that the magnetic field will be directed towards user’s head heights.

    Using the System When powered and in normal operational mode the amplifier will display Volume In LED 1 as steady green. When the amplifier is switched off using the On/Off button, audio is muted and LEDs are not illuminated; press any button to turn the amplifier on again. To adjust the staff volume level: • Press and hold the Volume In (+) or (-) buttons to increase or decrease the level. The corresponding LED bar will show the volume setting. To adjust the customer volume level: • Press and hold the Volume Out (+) or (-) buttons to increase or decrease the level. The corresponding LED bar will show the volume setting. For best possible performance: 1. Ensure the customer and staff volumes are turned completely down. 2. Adjust staff volume (Volume In) to a comfortable level. 3. Increase customer volume (Volume Out) until feedback is heard. 4. Decrease customer volume (Volume Out) until feedback is just eliminated. Check that the amplifier is fully functional by ensuring the red ‘fault’ light is NOT displaying.
