OMX1 units. Users always know where the charging docks are and this configuration eliminates the need to find an unused outlet and a suitable spot to put the charger itself. The Oratorʼs cover rotates up and out of the way when the system is in use and back down to help secure the OMX1 units when not in use.
Test each OMX1 for audio transmission. Adjust the systemʼs volume controls as needed. The Orator system is now proved out and functioning. Turn off the power to the ORB35 unit before making any other connections. Review the full instructions for information on enabling OMX1 functions, setting up the Override input, and using the 8-Band EQ among other system operation details.
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION: Before the MIC/Transmitter OMX1 will work in the Orator system, it must first be programmed by inserting it into a charging dock. In systems with 2 OMX1 units, each must be inserted into a different dock.
