• Ensure teacher remote is working properly.
- Press the center “Whole Class” button. It should be lighted green.
- If it doesn’t light, make sure the Access amplifier is plugged into power
and the blue power light is on.
- Ensure the batteries are fully charged. If the red battery low light is on, it
can cause intermittent operation.
PROBLEM: Remote does not light or activate a speaker pod(s).
SOLUTION:
• Ensure the batteries have a charge. They should be charged nightly.
- If the red low battery light is on, it can cause intermittent operation.
• Try pressing the center “Whole Class” button. It should be lighted green.
- If this button lights, the remote has a battery charge and is properly linked
up. The problem is likely with the pod or pods that do not activate, refer to
the “No audio from speaker pod” troubleshooting section.
- If this button doesn’t light, make sure the Access amplifier is plugged into
power.
- Check to see that the Flexmike is powered on and linked, as indicated
by a solid blue light. If that light does not go solid blue, try powering the
Flexmike and Access amplifier off, then on again.
- Check to see that there is a corresponding green 1 or 2 ready light on the
Access amplifier.
- If the microphone still does not link up (turn solid blue), it may need
to be re-registered to the Access amplifier. Please refer to the Flexcat
registration guide on the Lightspeed website.
- If there is a second remote, check to see if that operates correctly.
PROBLEM: Feedback or squealing from pod speaker
SOLUTION:
• Make sure the teacher’s Flexmike is 2 feet or more away from the pod.
Operation at very close distance can cause feedback.
• Try turning the volume down on the bottom of the pod. Typical volume levels
should be around the mid-point (12:00 on the dial).
• Turn the volume on the Flexmike down 1-2 clicks.
