SET-UP & USE

Tabletop (recommended):

•Greaterexibilitytomoveto

different locations

First, consider that the Redcat Access

should be placed within 7 feet of

an electrical outlet and on a surface

about 3-6 feet off the ground.

Next, ﬁnd a location as far away as

possible from the teacher who will

be using the mic. The best place is

against the wall opposite where the

teacher will be speaking. If this is not

possible, other good locations are

along either wall next to the teacher

or in a corner. Avoid placing the RCA

next to where the teacher instructs.

Putting the Redcat Access in close

proximity to the teacher’s mic can

result in feedback.

1B. TO SET-UP MOUNTED ON A WALL

First, consider that the RCA should be

placed within 7 feet of an electrical

outlet and about 6-8 feet off the

ground.

Next, ﬁnd a location as far away as

possible from the teacher who will

be using the mic. The best place is

centered on the long wall opposite

the teacher. If this is not possible,

other good locations are on the wall

next to the teacher. Avoid placing

the RCA on any wall close to where

the teacher usually stands to instruct

the class. Having the teacher’s mic

too close to the RCA can result in

feedback.

4. CHARGING THE FLEXMIKE

Before use, the Flexmike should be charged. It will take 8-9 hours for the

Flexmike to obtain a full charge. A fully charged Flexmike will last for up to 8

hours of use. If microphones are used daily, they should be charged each night

– microphones can be left charging constantly for up to 2 weeks without causing

degradation to battery life.

When plugged into a charger, a red light on the Flexmike indicates the battery

pack is charging. A green light indicates that charging is complete and a full

charge has been reached. See Troubleshooting section for more information.

Replacement NiMH battery packs may only be purchased through Lightspeed

Technologies (part # NH2.4). Do not attempt to charge with other battery packs.

They can overheat and expand creating a signiﬁcant hazard and damaging the

microphone (this is not covered by warranty).

1. Plug wall charger into an electrical

outlet.

2. Plug the USB charging cable(s)

into the wall charger.

3. Plug the micro USB end of the

charging cable into USB port on

the bottom of the Flexmike.When

the Flexmike is fully charged the

LED on the mic will change to

green.

5. OPERATING THE FLEXMIKE

Once the Flexmike is charged, follow these steps to set it up for use.

1. Turn the Redcat Access power

switch to the on position.

2. Remove the Flexmike from the

charging cable and put it on by

connecting the magnetic clasps

behing your neck. The Flexmike

will automatically power on when

it is left in the on position while

charging.

3. The microphone volume on the

Flexmike is set at the factory to the

mid point.

4. While speaking in a normal voice,

ﬁne-tune the volume up or down.

Proper volume level should be as

follows:

• Yourvoiceshouldbeclearly

heard by another person on the

other side of the room.

• Youshouldbarelybeableto

hear your own voice.

• Thereshouldnotbeanyaudio

“feedback” or squealing

outside of 2-3 feet (if there is,

turn the volume down slightly).

REMEMBER: This equipment

supplements the user’s voice so they

are able to speak in a conversational

tone. Having the volume set too high

will result in feedback and listener

fatigue.

6. Once initial volume level is set,

walk around the room and listen

for overall audio quality.

7. If further ﬁne-tuning is required,

you may need to adjust the Tone

Control on the top of the RCA.
