Charging:
•
Connect the included charging cable(s) to any of the USB CHARGING
OUTPUT ports on the back of Activate Station.
•
Connect the other end of the cable to the Micro USB port on the pod.
•
The red charge light on the Pod will light to indicate charging has begun.
•
When fully charged, the light will turn green.
TIPS AND TRICKS TO SUCCESSFUL USE
Determining optimum placement of the pods
•
Pods should be placed in the approximate center of the group
•
They can be placed on the center of a table or on the floor where the
students are sitting.
•
The microphone is designed to pick up students in a 360 degree radius, so
it also operates best when in the middle of a group.
Managing equipment and charging
•
Leave all components in the on position.
- When you place them on the charger, they will charge as normal.
- When you remove them from the charger to start the day, they will be
fully charged and ready for operation.
•
Assign students to manage the charging of the group speakers.
- Have one assigned student remove it from the charger to start the day
and place it back on the charger at the end of the day.
•
If using the LS Remote App, always leave the remote control on the charger
to ensure it maintains its link with the Access amplifier and iOS device.
Determining proper volume levels
•
This system is not designed to make the teachers voice louder, but to
distribute it appropriately so it is heard clearly by the selected group of
students or the whole class.
•
The pods are designed to be used independently, so turning the volume up
too loud can result in bleed-over to another group.
•
Typical volume levels at a group speaker are about half of the maximum
setting – approximately 12:00 on the dial.
•
It should be loud enough that students in the desired group hear you as
though you were speaking directly to them at a distance of 3 feet.
•
The classroom speaker should also be at a level that is not loud, but
clear throughout the whole room. Typically 12:00 on the Access amplifier
‘Microphone Volume’ control is appropriate.
CONT’D
6. Safety &
Specifications
TIPS AND TRICKS TO SUCCESSFUL USE
For optimal voice pickup, students will likely need to lean in toward the
group speaker to within about 24”.
•
Volume level is adjusted using the Access amplifier “Microphone Volume”
control. Level is optimum at the center point, but can be adjusted as
needed. NOTE: if you turn that volume up or down, you will likely need to
turn the volume on the Flexmike down or up to compensate.
•
To avoid feedback between the pod and classroom speaker, the nearest
pod should be more than 6 feet away from the speaker.
If your system is equipped with team-teaching
•
Make sure to use the corresponding Flexmike and remote for microphone 1
and 2, indicated as follows:
- Flexmike: microphone 1 or 2 light is on
- Remote: microphone 1 or 2 sticker on the back of remote (above
barcode)
•
If you are using the LS Remote App with team-teaching, each teacher will
need an iOS device paired with Remote #1 or #2 to match their microphone.
- When paired, the LS Remote App will show M1 or M2 to indicate which
microphone it is operating with.
