How to connect the gooseneck microphone
–
–
For the connection to the microphone unit, there are gooseneck microphones with an LED available.
• Take the gooseneck microphone by the shaft, put it into the appropriate socket and press the shaft
downwards until it locks in place.
• If you want to remove the gooseneck microphone, press the opening for unlocking with the supplied
tool or a similar thin tool. Remove the gooseneck microphone by taking it by the shaft and pulling.
Switching on
• The microphone is switched on by pressing the microphone button. Depending on the operating
mode, the microphone button will illuminate green (normal operating mode) or red (request-to-
speak mode).
• When the microphone is active, the level of the loudspeaker of the microphone unit will auto-
matically be reduced to avoid feedback.
Operating modes
The different operating modes such as "Normal", "FiFo" or "Voice controlled" are adjusted on the
Orbis CU control unit for all microphone units. The standard operating mode is "Normal".
Buttons and functions of the chairman microphone unit
In addition to the microphone button, the chairman microphone unit is provided with a clear button
and programmable function button.
Clear button: By pressing the clear button all active delegate microphone units are cleared. After-
wards the delegates can turn on their microphone again.
Function button: Depending on the configuration via the Orbis CU control unit the function button has
the function "Normal" or "Mute" or "Function" when configured via an external media control system.
Maintenance
• Only clean the devices with a slightly damp or dry cloth. Never use solvents as these damage the
surface.
Warning!
When mounting or removing the gooseneck microphone hold it at the bottom
end only. Never hold it at the gooseneck or microphone head! You could
damage the gooseneck microphone and by doing so you will invalidate the
guarantee.
To align the gooseneck microphone and to avoid overstretching as well as
premature wear and tear, please note that the gooseneck must not be bent
further than a maximum angle of 90°.
