ALL PROBLEMS: 

Most Problems are 

related to low battery power.

SOLUTION: 

Battery Check

•  Confirm batteries are charged  

each night. 

•  Confirm proper batteries are 

used. The REDMIKE requires 
the Lightspeed BA-NH2A27 
rechargeable sensing battery for 
proper charging. The REDMIKE 
Share uses the BA-NH2APK 
rechargeable battery pack. The 
LT-71 requires two BA-NH1 AA 
rechargeable batteries.

•  Make sure the microphones are 

turned off while charging so a full 
charge is attained. Full charge will 
last eight hours.

•  Inspect the battery contacts. Clean 

and adjust if necessary.

PROBLEM: 

Hearing Static 

SOLUTION:

 Follow these steps to 

eliminate static.

•  Ensure sensor is in optimum 

location (refer to sensor placement 
in manual). A single sensor will 
cover a 1600 sq. ft. enclosed 
classroom.

•  Ensure that no other REDMIKE/LT-

71/REDMIKE Share is operating on 
the same channel.

•  If the optional iR media connection  

is in use, set the microphone to 
Channel A.

PROBLEM: 

Low Volume or Feedback

SOLUTION:

 Follow these steps to 

eliminate low volume or feedback.

•  Ensure microphone is positioned 

appropriately, just below the collar 
bone. 

•  Check volume level on the 

amplifier. If the volume is too 
high, feedback will occur. Adjust 
accordingly.

•  Adjust the volume level on the 

back of the optional REDMIKE VC.

PROBLEM:

 No Sound From Speaker

SOLUTION: 

Follow these steps to 

produce sound from speakers.

•  Turn the CAT 855 on. Confirm that 

the POWER light located on the 
front panel switch is on.

•  Confirm signal is being received at 

the CAT 855. The IR signal light will 
be RED indicating a signal is being 
received.

•   Confirm that REDMIKE is turned 

on. There will be a BLUE LED on  
the microphone to indicate it is 
powered on.

Note: 

Most problems are directly related to low battery power. Please run 

through the “Battery Check” items first. For remaining troubleshooting, use 
known good, fully-charged batteries.

If you review these instructions and still have questions, write down the 

serial number and model number of your system and call Lightspeed 

Technical Services at 800.732.8999, 5 a.m. – 5 p.m., PST.
