1 Applications
This gooseneck desktop microphone with
chime function has especially been designed
for application in PA systems and for other
applications for which a stable desktop micro-
phone is required for announcements (e. g. in
office build ings, hospitals, stores, etc.).
2 Safety Notes
The units (the desktop microphone and the
supplied plug-in power supply unit) correspond
to all relevant di rectives of the EU and are
therefore marked with .
WARNING The plug-in power supply unit is
supplied with hazardous mains
voltage. Leave servicing to skilled
personnel only. Inexpert handling
may cause an electric shock hazard. Further-
more, any guarantee claim will expire if the
power supply unit or the desktop microphone
is opened.
•
The desktop microphone and the power sup-
ply unit are suit able for indoor use only. Pro-
tect them against dripp ing water and splash
water, high air humidity, and heat (admissi-
ble ambient temperature range 0 – 40 °C).
•
Do not set the desktop microphone into
operation, and immediately disconnect the
power supply unit from the mains socket if
1. there is visible damage to the desk micro-
phone or to the power supply unit,
2. a defect might have occurred after a drop
or similar accident,
3. there are malfunctions.
The units must in any case be repaired by
skilled personnel.
•
For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth, by no
means chem icals or water.
•
No guarantee claims for the desktop micro-
phone or the power supply unit and no lia-

material damage will be accepted if the units
are used for other purposes than originally
intended, if they are not correctly connected
or operated, or if they are not repaired in an
expert way.
If the desktop microphone and the
power supply unit are to be put out of
operation definitively, take them to a
local recycling plant for disposal which
is not harmful to the environment.
3 Power Supply
The power supply can be provided via the sup-
plied plug-in power supply unit or via batteries
(not supplied). With the selector switch (1) on
the rear side of the unit, set the unit to the type
of power supply:
– in case of supply via the plug-in power supply
unit:
set the switch to the right position "EXT".
– in case of supply via batteries:
set the switch to the left position "BATT".
3.1 Plug-in power supply unit
Connect the power supply unit to the jack
"DC 5V" (2) and to a mains socket (230 V/
50 Hz).
If the microphone is not used for a longer
period, disconnect the power supply unit from
the mains as it con sumes a low current even
when the microphone is switched off.
3.2 Batteries
Remove the battery compartment cover (4) on
the lower side of the unit. Insert two 1.5 V bat-
teries of C size, with the positive and negative
connections as printed in the compartment.
Close the battery compartment.
•
Remove the batteries if the microphone is
not used for a longer time (e. g. more than a
week). Thus, the unit remains undamaged in
case the batteries should leak.
Do not throw discharged batteries or
defective rechargeable batteries into
the household rubbish but put them
into special waste only (e. g. collector
at your retailer).
4 Audio Connection
Connect the jack "AUDIO OUT" (3) via the sup-
plied cable to a microphone input jack (6.3 mm
jack) of an amplifier or mixer.
5 Setting into Operation
1) Place the windshield supplied (7) onto the
microphone.
2) Press the "POWER" button (8) to switch on
the unit. The unit will be in stand-by mode; the
LED indicator above the button will light up.
3) To make an announcement, press the but-
ton "MIC" (11). The LED indicator above the
button will light up and a chime will sound
to introduce the announcement. When
the chime has stopped, speak into the mi-
crophone. Use the control "MIC" (9) to
adjust the volume for the announcement:
the further the control is turned clockwise,
the higher the volume. At the end of the an-
nouncement, press the button "MIC" again.
The LED indicator above the button will
extinguish and a chime will sound, marking
the end of the announcement.
Three chime types are available for the
two chimes that mark the beginning and the
end of the announcement respectively: For
each of the two chimes, a separate chime
type can be selected – see chapter 5.1.
4) Use the control "CHIME" (10) to adjust the
chime volume: the further the control is
turned clockwise, the higher the volume of
both chimes.
If no chimes are desired, turn the control
counterclockwise to position "–" (left stop).
5) If the microphone is not used for a longer
period, switch the unit off with the "POWER"
button.
5.1 Setting the chime type
For each of the two chimes (marking the begin-
ning and the end of the announcement respec-
tively), three chime types are available: To select
the chime type desired, use the DIP switches
on the lower side of the unit; the three left
switches (5) apply to the chime marking the
beginning of the announcement, the three
right switches (6) apply to the chime marking
the end.
