Batteries
The FlashMic requires two
Batteries of at least 1500mAh capacity are recommended.
!Do not use zinc chloride batteries.
Inserting Batteries
Hold the FlashMic in one hand and unscrew the rear section (the section with the display and operating controls) with the other.
Slide the rear section back as far as it will go.
Open the hinged plastic battery compartment cover.
Insert the two batteries oriented as shown on the compartment cover.
!The two batteries must point the same way.
!Always change both batteries at the same time, and always use two batteries of the same brand and type. NEVER mix alkaline and rechargeable batteries.
Close the cover, push the rear section back over the compartment, and screw up tight.
Note: If changing alkaline batteries, dispose of the old ones in a responsible manner – always observe local environmental guidelines.
Battery Management
Battery life will be maximised if the FlashMic is switched off when not in use, as the power consumed in IDLE mode is virtually the same as in REC mode.
The internal clock settings are protected within FlashMic for approximately 1 minute after the batteries are removed. Recorded sound files and configuration settings are not affected by battery removal.
Remove any batteries from the FlashMic if it is to be unused for an extended period (more than a month).
Battery Status Indicator
A
The number of segments displayed is proportional to the battery power remaining. The rate of change of the display can be altered (via the menu system or via the FlashMic Manager software) to reflect the different discharge characteristics of alkaline or rechargeable batteries.
The display backlight, the record LED on the FlashMic base and the battery indicator will all flash when the remaining battery life approaches zero. If the FlashMic is recording when the batteries are nearly exhausted, the recording will be stopped after the flashing warning.
