IF FEEDBACK OCCURS

1.Do not stand with the microphone directly in front of the speaker. Don’t try to set the volume while standing with the microphone in the “feedback zone.” Have someone help you adjust the volume.

2.Place the receiver and speaker as shown in Figure 5. Avoid pointing receivers or speakers directly perpendicular to a wall.

3.Turn the volume down. Remember, the system is not intended to play loudly. It should slightly boost the teacher’s voice above normal background noise levels.

4.Turn down the treble control. This will reduce the volume of higher frequencies.

5.Use the MIC 074 Headset Microphone. This bring the microphone closer to the sound source (the speaker’s mouth) and thus reduces the amount of amplification required to achieved the desired volume.

IF INTERFERENCE OCCURS

1.Do not try to use more than one transmitter on the same channel in close proximity to each other. MORE THAN ONE TRANSMITTER ON THE SAME CHANNEL WILL RESULT IN INTERFERENCE IF THEY ARE CLOSE TOGETHER. Keep the sys- tems 50 - 100 feet apart or use separate channels for each system used.

2.If you are still hearing interference on the Receivers, turn the transmitter off and listen with a receiver. If you hear the interference with the transmitter off, you need to change to a clear channel. See the frequency change instructions elsewhere in this manual.

3.Make sure that the transmitter and optional personal receivers are tuned to the same channel. The units have stickers inside the back cover identifying the channel. Unless the transmitter channel has been changed, set the personal receiver to channel 1.

IF OTHER PROBLEMS OCCUR

1.If the rechargeable batteries will only work for a short period of time (less than 1 hour) even after they are fully charged, they must be regenerated. Leave them in the transmitter or receiver with the unit turned on for 5 - 6 hours. Then turn the transmit- ter or receiver off, place it in the charger, and charge for 14 - 16 hours. This should restore normal battery life. Rechargeable batteries will gradually lose their capacity over time and should be replaced every year.

2.If you’re using the SoundFocus System with the optional PFM R31 Receiver, make sure that the earphone has been plugged into the earphone jack and not into the R31 Receiver’s microphone jack.
