Setting System Volume Levels - Lightspeed Active User Manual

Setting System Volume Levels

For greater flexibility, Flexmike, Pods and the classroom audio system have independent
volume controls. To set the proper volume for your classroom, place the microphone around
your neck and do the following:
FLEXMIKE VOLUME (through the classroom speaker and Pods)
To adjust, use the up/down buttons on the Flexmike.
• Select an individual Pod and begin speaking in a normal voice.
• The volume should be at a level that the kids seated around the Pod can clearly hear,
but not so loud that other nearby groups could hear.
• Press the class button to turn on the classroom speaker and speak in a normal voice.
• The volume should be at a level that the kids can clearly hear from the other side of the
room. You should just barely be able to hear your own voice.
NOTE: At proper volume levels, there should not be any "feedback" or squealing from the
speaker outside of 2-3 feet. If there is, turn the Flexmike volume down slightly.
POD SPEAKER VOLUME
• The speaker volume of each individual Pod can be adjusted using the up/down buttons
on the Pod.
• The default volume setting is at the center point or "0". The Pods can be adjusted 5
"steps" up or down to a maximum of 5 and a minimum of -5.
• Press the up/down buttons to adjust the speaker volume level as desired.
POD TO CLASS VOLUME
• Enable "Pod to Class" sharing mode by swiping Pod #1 to the class icon on the app.
• With the teacher's Flexmike muted, hold Pod #1 and begin speaking, keeping it 3" to 4"
from your mouth.
• The volume should be at a level to just hear your own voice, but loud enough to enable
kids on the other side of the room to clearly hear you (it is helpful to have another person
in the room to verify).
• Press the volume tab and adjust the Pod to Class volume on the app to optimize the level.
NOTE: Check the Pod sharing volume level at the Pod nearest the classroom speaker to
verify there is no "feedback" or squealing. If there is, turn down the volume slightly.
