- 3 - Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of a Revolabs Wireless Microphone System! This system utilizes 1.9 GHz DECT technology, and high band-width audio from multiple wireless microphones, enabling clear, reliable, un-tethered communications in recording, audio/video conferencing, speech recognition, VOIP communications, sound re-enforcement as well as many other environments requiring clear audio capture. The Revolabs HD™ Single and Dual Channel Wireless Microphone Systems have high definition audio, 50 Hz to 20 kHz, which allows the systems to pick up the entire human voice spectrum. The HD Single and Dual Channel Systems are a unique marriage of innovative technology and ergonomic design, employing Multi-Carrier Time Division Multiple Access and Time Division Duplex (MC/TDMA/TDD) radio transmissions both to and from the microphone. This technology allows the microphones to co-exist with other wireless products such as wireless LANs (802.11b&g), and includes digital encryption technology to ensure secure communications. System Components Depending on which system you’ve purchased, your Revolabs HD™ System contains the following: • Mountable Single or Dual Channel Base Station • Single or Dual Channel Microphone Charger Base • HD Wireless Microphones, purchased and boxed separately The Base Station houses the processor and one end of the wireless connection. It features one set of PCB diversity antennae and offers individual line-level or mic-level audio in/out for each microphone channel. This allows for external audio processing such as: • Mixing
- 4 - • Acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) • Feedback elimination • Level control • Equalization • Noise cancellation The system is designed to optimize audio capture/reproduction by providing: • Consistent audio input from all participants • Minimum room noise • Mute control • Wireless encryption • Automatic channel selection • Full duplex audio The Charger Base charges the HD Wireless Microphones and stores them when not in use. Installing the Revolabs HD ™ Base Station The Revolabs HD ™ Channel Base Station, shown below in front and rear panel views, manages wireless audio signal processing, pairing, and muting between the Revolabs microphones and the Base Station. Front View Rear View Controls and Connections: 1. Channel LED indicators: Displays microphone mute and pairing states 2. Pairing Push Buttons: For pairing microphones to Base Station 3. Power In Receptacle (100-240 VAC) 4. 3.5mm Balanced Input Connectors 5. 3.5mm Balanced Output Connectors 6. Mini-USB Serial Interface 7. Configuration DIP Switches (see Section Using the Rear Panel Configuration DIP switches) 12 345 67
- 5 - To Install the Base Station: 1. Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet 2. Connect the necessary outputs and inputs Revolabs HD™ Base Station Audio Connections There are (2) 3.5mm balanced inputs and (2) 3.5mm balanced outputs on the back panel of the unit providing access to each channel’s audio signal. The three terminals correspond to: Tip = Positive + Ring = Negative – Sleeve = Shielded Ground There are one or two output channels representing a separate channel for each microphone. The microphone output connectors need to be attached to the input connectors of an audio mixer. PHANTOM POWER MUST BE OFF. PHANTOM POWER MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE BASE STATION. The Base Station input connectors (also 0 dBu) may then be attached to mixer channel outputs. Because the system is full-duplex, the input connections provide the ability to hear program audio using a 2.5mm earpiece attached to the microphone (supplied with the wearable microphone). Depending on the application, it is possible to feed a single audio feed back to each earpiece. This would allow for translation, personal hearing assistance or other services to be incorporated into an application. NOTE: The USB port may exhibit static sensitivity. If the Base Station audio shuts down after handling, please power cycle the Base Station Configuring the Revolabs HDTM Base Station Each Revolabs HDTM Base Station must be configured properly prior to use. Accurate configuration is dependent on several variables such as: • Is Line Level or Mic Level signal required? Refer to setting Dip Switch 3 below. • How many HDTM Dual/Single Systems are being used together in close proximity? If you have more than one Revolabs Wireless Microphone System, refer to setting Dip Switch 7&8 below. Note: It is recommended that the lowest functioning Transmit Power be used for each system. • How large is the room? Refer to setting Dip Switch 7&8 below.

Pairing Wireless Microphones to Base Station Pairing creates a link between the HD Wireless Microphone and the Base Station, with a unique electronic serial number. When the microphone and Base Station have been previously paired, the mic will automatically try to connect to the same Base Station whenever it is lifted from the Charger Base. Note: Microphones in new systems must be paired to the Base Station with each microphone assigned to a unique channel on the Base Station.
- 14 - 1 2 3 Remember, microphones are always muted (flashing RED LED) when they are removed from the Charger Base and the Mute button needs to be pressed to make it “live” (flashing GREEN LED). A microphone that is not paired will be indicated by a cycling RED-GREEN LED pattern. A Base Station channel that is not paired to a microphone will not show any activity on the channel LED (make sure unit is first powered on by observing GREEN backlit front panel display). When channels are paired, both microphone and channel LEDs will flash RED as microphones are removed from the Charger Base and flash GREEN when un-muted. Remember that only one microphone can be paired to any single Base Station channel. To pair an individual microphone to the Base Station: 1. Turn the microphone OFF (no LED activity). If the microphone is ON, press and hold the Mute button for 10 seconds until the LED turns solid RED then release the button to turn the unit off. (do not release the button when you hear two beeps). 2. Place the microphone unit into pairing mode by holding the Mute button down for seven seconds. The LED will turn solid RED. Release the Mute button. The microphone is now in pairing mode. 3. Within one minute, push and hold the button for the desired channel on the Base Station for seven seconds until the LED turns solid red then release. The LED for that channel will be solid red until pairing starts, as indicated by a quick GREEN flash, then switching to flashing RED on both the microphone and the Base Station (muted audio). Pairing is now complete. Revolabs HDTM Single or Dual Charger Base When microphones are not in use, they should be properly inserted into the Revolabs HD Charger Base. It is important to ensure that all system microphones are inserted fully in the base so that charging will occur. Features of the base are shown in the following figure. 1. LED indicator — power status indicator 2. Charger Bays — charges up to 2 Microphones 3. Power Cord Receptacle — power supply input, 9-24VDC (on rear)
- 15 - Power Module The Charger Base requires 5VDC power, provided by the AC Adapter. Plug the supplied AC adapter into an appropriate power outlet 110-240 AC, 50-60Hz. The power LED on the Charger Base will illuminate. Charging the Microphone Batteries First-time use — Before using the wireless microphone the first time, charge the batteries in the microphones for eight hours (or overnight) in the Charger Base. Recharging — When the YELLOW LED starts to flash intermittently on the microphone the battery has 30 minutes of charge remaining. Over time (years), batteries gradually wear down and will result in shorter run times. This is normal. Always return microphones to the Charger Base when not in use. Important: The Lithium Polymer rechargeable batteries that power the microphones are not user serviceable. Please contact Revolabs (www.revolabs.com) or your AV service provider for replacement instructions and to assure the proper disposal method is used. Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode. Either a solid RED LED (charging) or solid GREEN LED (100% charged) will appear to confirm that the microphone is inserted properly in the Charger Base. The microphones are not transmitting audio to the HD Base Station while in the Charger Base. In normal use, batteries should fully charge in about 2 hours, but will “quick-charge” to 80% capacity in approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes. Fully charged microphones left in the Charger Base remain solid GREEN. Updating the Revolabs HDTM Firmware Revolabs HDTM Systems are field upgradable for the firmware portion of the Base Station and microphones. The firmware must be sent to the Base station using the Revolabs HD Firmware Loader software. The software can be downloaded at www.revolabs.com/downloads. Updating the HD Single/Dual Channel Base Station and HD Microphones 1. Connect to the Base Station using the mini-USB cable. 2. Pair both mics to the Base Station and make sure they are out of the Charger Base. 3. Start the Revolabs HD Firmware Loader software 4. Select the desired firmware version from the menu in the pop-up window. 5. Choose whether you would like to update the Base Station, Mics, or Both. 6. Select OK. The Revolabs HD Firmware Loader will notify you when complete. The HD Microphone firmware updates wirelessly during the firmware process as long as the microphones are out of the Charger Base, paired to the Base Station, and communicating with the Base Station.
