Using Your VLP2 Wireless Microphone
The VoiceLink Plus™ wireless microphone or “VLP2”
is used to initiate a recording while you are outside
your vehicle. If there are two officers sharing one
vehicle, you may purchase a second VLP2.
The VLP2 comes with a docking station that has
an antenna attached to it. The antenna is used to
communicate with the DVR. In order for the
VLP2 to operate, it must be synchronized with
the docking station.
To remove the VLP2 mic from the docking
station, simply tilt it
forward
, then lift
up
.
Requirements for Successful Recording Using the VLP2
When using your VLP2, please keep the following requirements in mind:
Remain within transmission range of the
docking station
. If your VLP2 battery is
fully charged, the transmission range is a
maximum 1,000 feet. If your VLP2 battery
is
not
fully charged (common scenario),
the transmission range may be
reduced. Whenever you move
outside of range, the unit will
vibrate
three times
.
Keep the Power switch in the
‘On’ position when using
.
It’s recommended that you leave
the VLP2 power switch
on
for the
duration of your shift, as pictured right. This
switch is located at the base of the mic.
Avoid metal barriers between the
wireless mic and the docking station
.
The wireless mic uses a “line of sight”
signal. Physical barriers, particularly
metal
barriers, can interrupt this signal. Since
your vehicle is made of metal, it’s important to mount the VLP2 above the dashboard
line so that the signal does not have to pass through metal. Also, do not try to record
while your vehicle is above or below you, as this forces the signal to pass through the
vehicle’s undercarriage or roof, respectively. For example, if you are standing on an
overpass and your vehicle is parked
under
the overpass, this creates a metal barrier,
as the signal has to pass through the roof of your vehicle.
