Setting Up the Flexmike
Once the Flexmike is charged, follow these steps to set it up for use.
1. Remove the Flexmike from the cradle charger and put it on by connecting the
magnetic clasps behind your neck. Adjust the lanyard so that the Flexmike is at the
top of the collarbone.
2. The Flexmike will automatically power on and mute when it is removed from the
charger. This will automatically power on Access Link as well.
3. The microphone volume on the Flexmike is set at the factory to the midpoint.
4. While speaking in a normal voice, fine-tune the microphone volume on the front of
Access Link 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.
• Once initial volume level is set, walk around the room and listen for overall audio
quality.
• If further fine-tuning is required, you may need to adjust the Tone Control on the
front of the Access Link.
• If the Flexmike is out of range, it will automatically shut off after 30 minutes of
trying to reconnect. Once you are back in the classroom, or in range, simply press
and hold the power button on the Flexmike to power it up and resume normal
operation.
