Sennheiser W100 manual Attaching the microphones, Positioning the microphones

Page 19

Attaching the microphones
Use the microphone clips	to attach the ME 2 and ME 4 clip-on micro-

phones to clothing (e.g. tie, lapel).

Adjust the ME 3 headmic so that a comfortable and secure fit is ensured.

Positioning the microphones

The ME 3 and ME 4 microphones are directional microphones, i.e. their sound inlet should always be directed towards the sound source (e.g. mouth).

The ME 2 with omni-directional pick-up pattern picks up sound equally from all directions. It is the best choice if movements of the speaker’s head have to be compensated for. However, it should be attached as close as possible to the sound source.

Adjust the sensitivity correctly for all microphones/usages (see: „Adjusting the sensitivity (transmitters only)“ on page 32).

SKP 100 G2 plug-on transmitter

Inserting and replacing the batteries

For powering the SKP 100 G2 plug-on transmitter, you can either use two 1.5 V AA size batteries or the rechargeable Sennheiser BA 2015 accupack.

Slide the battery compartment cover in the direction of the embossed arrow and opern the cover.

Insert the two batteries or the BA 2015 accupack as shown in the diagram on the left. Please observe correct polarity when inserting the batteries/ accupack.

Close the battery compartment. The battery compartment cover locks into place with an audible click.

Note:

For accupack operation of the transmitter, only use the BA 2015 accupack In order to ensure optimum operational reliability. For charging the accupack, only use the L 2015 charger. Both the accupack and the charger are available as accessories.

The accupack is fitted with an integrated sensor which is – via a third contact – monitored by the electronics of the transmitter and the charger. The sensor is necessary for the following control purposes:

y The taking into account of the different voltage characteristics of primary cells (batteries) and accupacks. The battery status indications on the displays, the transmission of transmitter battery status information to the rack-mount receivers and the switch-off thresholds at the end of the operating time are corrected correspondingly. Due to the missing sensor, individual rechargeable battery cells will not be identified as accupacks.

y The monitoring of the accupack temperature during charging in the L 2015 charger.
