3.2
Connecting
Only use power supplies authorized or supplied by bat bioacoustictechnology,
since the use of different devices can cause system failure, damage and loss of
data. Do not use tools (nipper, wrench,
…) for fixation of cable connections since
this can damage the connectors and/or the wires. Always use strain reliefs to
avoid unintentional disconnection.
3.2.1
When measuring at one or two measuring points with UltraSoundGates
116Hnbm/116Hnbm-r
1.
Connect the USB 2.0 interface connectors of the UltraSoundGates with the green marked
UltraSoundGate ports on the front of the BATmode (see Figure 1).
2.
If you utilize GM50 microphone discs with two XLR ports, connect the XLR-input connectors of
the UltraSoundGates with the single end of the microphone cables. Subsequently, connect
both connectors at the other end of the y-wires with the microphone and reference signal
speaker connectors of the GM50 microphone discs. Due to different pin numbers, it is not
possible to connect the microphone cable incorrectly. If you are using GM90 microphone discs,
use the microphone cable to connect the microphone input of the UltraSoundGates to the
microphone connector of the GM90 microphone discs.
When using tower microphones TM10 or TM20, connect the built-in cables to the XLR
microphone input of the respective UltraSoundGate.
3.
When measuring at one measuring point using a GM90 microphone disc, contact the
microphone heater by connecting the heating output connector on the BATmode to the
microphone disc with the heating cable.
When measuring at two measuring points and using two GM90 microphone discs, contact the
microphone heaters of the microphone discs by connecting the USB heating cables to the USB
power plugs and plug them into a 230V outlet.
Please note that microphone discs GM90 with a heating connection marked
with "5V" have to be operated only via USB heating cables and not via the
heating output of the BATmode. Violation may result in the destruction of the
microphone heater and equipment failure and damage, as well as data loss.
4.
Exclusively BATmode 2S:
Connect the cellular antenna to the cellular antenna connector of the BATmode 2S.
Exclusively BATmode 2S+:
Connect the antenna wires with the corresponding connectors at the BATmode 2S+ and the
antenna disc.
Ensure not to interchange both wires. This would cause declined signal reception levels of the
WIFI and cellular network connection.
