REDMIKE Share: Initial Set-up

1.Ensure the CAT 860 is ON. The RED LED on the power switch will glow.

2. Turn on the REDMIKE Share by sliding the switch to the top position.

3. Grip the barrel in the center section.

4. While speaking in a normal voice, increase the B VOLUME level until your voice is barely audible.

REMEMBER: This equipment is designed to supplement and distribute 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.

INITIAL SET-UP:

OPTIONAL IR MEDIA CONNECTOR

1.Turn off the second microphone. The iR Media Connector uses the same channel (channel B) as the optional second microphone (REDMIKE, LT-71, or REDMIKE Share). As a result, they cannot be used simultaneously. If you have a second microphone, turn it off before transmitting audio from the iRMC.

NOTE: If you adjust the CH B volume on the classroom audio system, you will also be changing the volume for your second microphone. Return the CH B volume knob to the original position before turning the second microphone back on.

2.The iR Media Connector volume is preset for most standard audio signals. If you need to turn the volume up or down, follow this procedure:

A. Adjust the volume at the computer, television, or other audio source if possible.

B. If the audio source does not have a volume control (such

as many DVD players) adjust the volume at the iRMC.

C.If the first two options do not give optimum volume level, the last place to adjust the

volume is the CH. B Volume on the CAT 860.
