Operating The Redmike - Lightspeed Redcat User Manual

5. OPERATING THE REDMIKE

Once the Redmike is charged, follow these steps to set it up for use.
1. Turn the Redcat power on. The
blue LED will glow.
2. Remove the Redmike from the
charging cradle and turn it on.
3. Slip the Redmike with lanyard
around the neck. The top of the
microphone will be approximately
just below the collarbone.
4. Slowly increase the channel A/B
volume up to the 'green' section
of the dial. This designates normal
volume range in the classroom.
5. While speaking in a normal voice,
fine-tune the volume up or down.
Proper volume level should be as
follows:
a. Your voice should be clearly
heard by another person on the
other side of the room.
b. You should barely be able to
hear your own voice.
c. There should not be any audio
"feedback" or squealing outside
of 2-3 feet (if there is, turn the
volume down slightly).
REMEMBER: This equipment
supplements the user's voice so they
are able to speak in a conversational
tone. Having the volume set too high
will result in feedback and listener
fatigue.
6. Once initial volume level is set,
walk around the room and listen
for audio dropout and overall
audio quality.
7. If a second Redmike was
purchased, repeat steps 2-4.
