Microphone Kit Instructions
Kit Contents (May Vary)
Each microphone kit contains:
Up to 6 Handheld Wireless Microphones (labeled 1–6; room dependent)
Up to 6 Lavalier Wireless Microphones (bodypacks, also labeled 1–6; room dependent)
AA Batteries
Important: Only use the microphones from this kit in the room. Do not use the in-room microphones, as this will cause frequency interference due to duplicated channels.
How To Use
Each handheld and lavalier in the kit shares a matched frequency with one of the receivers. They are essentially interchangeable, but only one mic per frequency should be turned on at a time.
Each mic (handheld and lavalier) are labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6.
A handheld and lavalier with the same number use the same frequency
Only one mic per number should be active at a time. For example:
Speaker A prefers lavalier → Use Lavalier 1 → Keep Handheld 1 turned off
Speaker B prefers handheld → Use Handheld 2 → Keep Lavalier 2 turned off
Speaker C prefers handheld → Use Handheld 3 → Keep Lavalier 3 turned off
Speaker D prefers lavalier → Use Lavalier 4 → Keep Handheld 4 turned off
Follow the instructions for powering on the lavalier or handheld microphones here: https://answers.atlassian.syr.edu/wiki/x/NgF5CQ
Note, if the microphones do not work, they may be muted. Press and hold the System Utilities page for 5-10 seconds and an Audio Mixer page will appear. If under WL Mic 1, WL Mic 2, etc. has the Mute button selected (in orange), deselect it and the microphones should work appropriately.
Post-Use Checklist
Power off all microphones and bodypacks.
Return the kit microphones to their designated spots within the kit.
Remove batteries from each microphone and place in the kit in where the lavalier cables are located.
Leave existing in-room microphones in the classroom/event space.
Return the kit to Lyman 104.
Helpful Tips
Do not turn on both a handheld and a lavalier that share the same frequency at the same time.
Do not use in-room mics alongside kit mics. This will cause signal interference.
Ensure batteries are replaced before use to ensure they remain charged throughout the event.
