T

he Freedom 2 Infrared Amplification

System is one of the best infrared sound 

amplification systems available today. No 

matter the application, the Freedom 2 Infrared

Amplification System is a welcome addition to

your classroom. At Lifeline, we know your

school will see the benefits of this system from

the first day you turn it on. Students will hear

the clarity and volume of the teacher’s voice.

Their ability to concentrate will increase. 

This means on-task behavior will increase 

as well. And that translates into a better 

learning environment. 

This manual has been designed to provide

clear, step-by-step instructions for setting up

the system for the first time, as well as for

troubleshooting potential problems. Simply

follow the directions and use the photographs

and diagrams as a guide.

An equipment checklist is provided noting

the pieces included in the Freedom 2 Infrared

Amplification System and any additional

equipment needed for set-up. 

Each piece of equipment in the system is

detailed in a separate section. This is done 

to familiarize both the set-up person and the

teacher with the components. This manual 

also provides information to help users 

understand how the pieces fit together to 

complete the system.

At the end of the manual, there is a 

section entitled “Troubleshooting.” This 

section is designed to help solve the most

common system problems associated with 

set-up and usage.
