Description
The ATW-T1006 is a digital wireless condenser microphone/transmitter
with a cardioid polar pattern. It is designed for surface-mount applications
such as high-quality sound reinforcement, conferencing, distance learning
and other demanding sound pickup applications.
The transmitter features a touch-sensitive user switch and two red/green
LED status indicators—one integrated into the user switch on the front
of the unit (LED 1), the other configured to display on both the top and
rear of the unit (LED 2), allowing the transmitter status to be viewed by
those seated opposite the user. The user switch mutes and unmutes the
transmitter. It can be set to toggle between live and muted audio (toggle
on/off), to permit live audio only while the switch is pressed (press to
talk), or to mute the audio while the switch is pressed (press to mute).
A power button is located on the bottom of the unit, along with four
recessed control buttons and a System ID Display. The recessed buttons
allow user to pair the transmitter with a System 10 receiver, switch
between Standard and Conference modes, lock and unlock the mute
function, and configure the gain and low-cut filter. The System ID Display
shows the System ID number, mode (Standard or Conference) and mute
lock status.
The integral 80 Hz low-cut filter provides easy switching from a flat
frequency response to a low-end roll-off. The roll-off position reduces
the pickup of low-frequency ambient noise (such as traffic, air-handling
systems, etc.), room reverberation and mechanically coupled vibrations.
The three-position input gain level selector permits trim adjustment to
accommodate louder and softer voices.
The transmitter's cardioid polar pattern provides a 120° angle of
acceptance (cardioid in hemisphere above mounting surface).
The transmitter features a low-reflectance black finish. Its heavy die-cast
case and non-slip silicone foam bottom pads minimize coupling of surface
vibration to the transmitter.
Operation and Maintenance
The ATW-T1006 is powered by a 3.7V rechargeable lithium-ion battery.
The transmitter is turned on by pressing and holding the Power button
on the bottom of the unit. The electronics in the transmitter take up to 30
seconds to stabilize after power is applied.
The transmitter should be placed on a
flat, unobstructed mounting surface,
with the front of the transmitter
facing the sound source. The sound
source should not be below, or higher
than 60° above, the plane of the
mounting surface.
The transmitter operates in two different modes: Standard and
Conference. In Standard mode, which is the default, both of the
transmitter's LEDs will illuminate green when the transmitter is on and
will illuminate red when the transmitter is muted. In Conference mode,
both LEDs will illuminate red when the transmitter is on and will not
illuminate at all when the transmitter is muted. In both modes, when
the transmitter power is off and the charging cable is plugged into the
transmitter, LED 1 will not illuminate, and LED 2 will illuminate red
while the battery is charging and illuminate green once the battery is
fully charged. (See LED Function chart below for complete LED lighting
scheme.)
The transmitter can be switched between Standard and Conference
modes by pressing and holding the recessed Switch Function button and,
while continuing to hold it, pressing and holding the Power button. After a
few seconds, the mode will change and the System ID Display will briefly
show an "A" for Standard mode or a "C" for Conference mode.
The transmitter's mute function can be locked and unlocked by pressing
the Pair and Power buttons on a transmitter that has been turned off.
When locked, a dot that normally appears on the System ID Display will
not appear and the LED below the Switch Function button will not be lit.
The settings for the user switch, low-cut filter and input gain level, can all
be adjusted by pressing the appropriate recessed button on the bottom
of the transmitter.
The user switch has three settings that can be chosen by pressing the
recessed Switch Function button. The default setting is TOGGLE ON/OFF
(with audio on at power up). Pressing the Switch Function button once
selects MOM. ON (momentary on), wherein the audio will be on only
while the user switch is being pressed (press to talk). Pressing the button
a second time selects MOM. OFF (momentary off), wherein the audio
will be muted while the user switch is being pressed (press to mute).
Pressing the button a third time cycles the setting back to the default.
The LED below the Switch Function button illuminates green for TOGGLE,
orange for MOM. ON and red for MOM. OFF .
There are three input gain levels that can be selected: -6 dB (for loudest
voices), 0 dB and +6 dB (for softest voices). The default setting is 0 dB.
Pressing the recessed Gain button on the bottom of the transmitter
adjusts the gain level. Pressing the button once changes the level from
0 dB to +6 dB, pressing it again changes the level to -6 dB and pressing
it a third time returns the level to 0 dB. The LED below the Gain button
illuminates green for -6 dB, orange for 0 dB and red for +6 dB.
