2. Operation
a.
The IRW-LT6 is provided with a 3.5mm
Locking Jack (5)
for connecting the
microphone. Plug in either the LM-14/O lavalier/lapel mic, DM-14/O direct mic,
or HM-10 headmic as supplied. To secure the connection, turn the metal slip ring
on the plug clockwise to thread it on the jack. To unplug, reverse the process. Clip
the transmitter to your clothes/belt, or hang the transmitter on your chest using the
supplied neck worn lanyard. Make sure the LT-6SC
Emitter (4)
has a clear line of
sight with the IR Sensor. To use the lavalier mic, attach it at upper chest level. Do
not place the mic too far from the mouth — a distance of about 5”- 7” usually works
best.
b.
Adjust the LT-6SC Volume Control (6) to minimum and slide the
Power Switch
(2)
to the ON position. The bi-color Power ON/LOW
Battery LED Indicator
(1)
will light green, indicating that the transmitter is on. In the case of low battery
strength, the indicator will light red, indicating that the batteries should be replaced
with fresh ones or the NiMH batteries should be recharged.
The IRW-2PA IR
Reception LED Indicator (6)
of the corresponding channel should
change from red to green if the sensors are properly receiving the signal. If it is
not, check the IRW-2PA power, sensor connections, and make sure the transmitter is
within range of the sensor. For optimum performance and range, make sure that the
LT-6SC
Emitter (4)
, on the “bubble” side of the bodypack, is not covered by the
body or clothing and has an unobstructed line-of-sight with the IR sensor.
c.
While speaking into the microphone, slowly increase the LT-6SC
Volume Control
(6)
and adjust the corresponding IRW-2PA
Volume Control (7)
to the desired level
while taking care to avoid acoustic feedback. The microphone is now ready to use.
Note: Observe care in selecting volume, transmitter location, and speaker
placement so that acoustic feedback (howling and screeching) will be
avoided. Please also observe the pickup patterns of the microphone selected:
omnidirectional mics pick up sound equally from all directions and are prone to
feedback if not used carefully. Unidirectional mics are more resistant to feedback,
but pick up sound sources best that are directly in front of the microphone. Also,
mics that are farther from the sound source, such as lapel mics, require more
acoustic gain and thus are also more prone to feedback than close-source mics such
as handheld mics that are used close to the mouth.
If there is no audio, check your speaker connections and verify proper impedance
is being used. If there is still no audio, try turning the IRW-2PA power switch on and
off in case the amp went into short-circuit protection mode due to accidental wiring
during speaker installation.
3. Charging
The IRW-2PA
Bodypack Charging Connector (13
) can be plugged directly
into the LT-6SC
DC Input Jack (3)
using the connecting cable for easy charging
of NiMH batteries. One or two bodypacks can be charged simultaneously. When
the charger is connected, the corresponding IRW-2PA
Battery Charging LED
Indicator (15)
will light brightly red. The LED indicator will light green when the
batteries are fully charged.
Note: See charger section on page 9 for important charger opertaion information.
