5. OPERATING THE REDMIKE
Once the REDMIKE is charged, follow these steps to set it up for use.
1. Turn the REDCAT power switch to
the ON position.
2. Remove the REDMIKE from the
charging cradle and turn it on. The
red IR LED (CH. A or CH. B) on
the REDCAT will light to indicate a
signal is being received.
3. Slip the REDMIKE with lanyard
around the neck and position the
top of the microphone just below
the collarbone.
4. Slowly increase the CH. A/B volume
to the level shown in the diagram
below. This is a typical level for a
classroom.
5. While speaking in a normal voice,
fine-tune the volume up or down.
Proper volume level should be as
follows:
• Your voice should be clearly
heard by another person on the
other side of the room.
• You should barely be able to
hear your own voice.
• There should not be any audio
“feedback” or squealing
outside of 2-3 feet (if there is,
turn the volume down slightly).
REMEMBER: This equipment
supplements 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.
6. Once initial volume level is set,
walk around the room and listen
for audio dropout and overall
audio quality.
7. If further fine-tuning is required,
audio equalization may be
necessary. Please refer to the
following page.
8. If a second REDMIKE was
purchased, repeat steps 2-4.
