To use either of the Elite Gooseneck Tabletop Microphones:
1. Remove the microphone from the Charger Base. The microphone will
automatically turn on. Based on settings in the Base DSP, the microphone
will start either un-muted or muted, indicated by green or red blinking
lights, respectively.
2. Gooseneck Tabletop microphones should be located on the table with the
microphone pointing toward the user, trying to keep the microphone 18 to
24 inches (45 to 60 cm) from the speaker. The pick-up pattern for this
directional microphone is cardioid, focusing a “beam” towards the speaker.
It is always better for the microphone to be as close to the person speaking
as possible, but avoid placing the microphone where it might be blocked by
equipment or paperwork. Avoid placing microphones too close to an audio
or video conference speaker to avoid echoes. Make sure that the microphone
is always placed standing on its rubber feet atop a flat surface. Refer to the
diagram below:
3. With the microphone in position on the table, see the picture above for
example, mute or un-mute the microphone by touching the mute area
(confirm by flashing green or flashing red LEDs, respectively). In push-to-
talk mode, touch the mute area and keep the finger there to unmute the
microphone. Removing the finger from the touch area will mute the
microphone again.
4. To turn the microphone off, return it to the Charger Tray or touch and hold
the Mute touch area for about 10 seconds until the LEDs turn solid red, and
remove the finger. The microphone can also be turned off from the local
web UI or the room control interface. In push to talk mode the microphone
cannot be shut down using the mute area.
If the microphones are placed too far away from the Remote Antenna
(depending on the RF power setting this can be 300 feet, 90 meters, or more)
the connection will be dropped (LEDs flash red-yellow-green-yellow) and the
microphone will mute. After 15 seconds the microphone will beep, and will
continue beeping every 30 seconds to indicating that it is out of range.
Move the microphone closer to the Remote Antenna and the connection will
automatically be re-established to its original state, and the beeping will cease.
Otherwise, the microphone will continue beeping until it turns off after about
15 minutes.
