Q | How does the receiver know if the signal is mono or stereo? | |
A | It automatically detects the type of signal and responds accordingly. | |
Q | My stereo signals are a bit noisy. How can I resolve this problem? | |
A | Add more radiators. When you are transmitting stereo signals, the signal is degraded slightly. Increasing your radiator coverage will help mitigate this. | |
Q | What happens when there is no signal from the radiators? | |
A | The receiver’s audio signal is muted and after 30 minutes the unit automatically shuts down to conserve battery life. | |
Q | How does the user select carriers? | |
A | By pressing the SELECT button on the front of the receiver. | |
Q | Can the receiver automatically find a carrier? | |
A | Yes, it will automatically seek and find all available carriers when the power is turned on. If no carrier is found, the unit will stop on the last used channel. | |
Q | Can I use a mono or stereo headphone with the LR-44? | |
A | Yes. | |
Q | How many receivers can be used in a system? | |
A | Infinite number - there is no limit. | |
Q | How do you replace the batteries in the receiver? | |
A | For non-rechargeable batteries (AAA alkaline), remove the battery compartment and replace the batteries with fresh AAA alkaline batteries. For rechargeable NiMH batteries, simply replace the sealed battery pack with a freshly charged pack. | |
Q | How do I recharge the NiMH batteries? | |
A | Use the Listen LA-350 8-Unit Charging/Storage unit. This unit will charge batteries that are in receivers or out of receivers. |
