LT-700 Line Drawing

1. A microphone or line level source (such as a CD or MP3 player) connects here. Use the LA-263 Line/Microphone “Y” Cable (72 MHz and 216 MHz) to connect an audio device with your microphone. Transmitter antenna is built into the microphone cord, eliminating additional wires while maximizing transmission effectiveness.
2. Multifunction LED indicates when microphone is muted, if batteries are low, and charging status.
3. Easy access mute switch.
4. Look&Listen™ LCD Display shows channel selection, channel lock, and battery level.
5. Offers 57 channels, or can be programmed so that only the channels you are using are displayed.
6. Easy access POWER button.
7. Uses two AA batteries. Adjustable to use either alkaline or NiMH batteries
8. When enabled, SQ technology provides the highest audio quality available in its product category. SQ can be disabled for compatibility with other assistive listening or tour group equipment.
9. Adjustable microphone sensitivity switch for best audio results.
10. UP/DOWN channel selection. Also used to lock and unlock channel selection to prevent accidental channel switching.
11. Manually lockable battery compartment door. 
12. Single transformer charging plug port.
13. Contact points for Listen’s drop in charging cases.
14. Exclusive belt clip “loop” prevents unit from slipping off belt or strap.
