Change the Microphone Preamp Gain
The Mic Preamp Gain is the first stage of amplification from the microphone in
the order point. In order to optimize the base station to a specific site this level
must be precisely set.
To change the microphone preamp gain:
Lookup the microphone’s output level at 1kHz sensitivity (see the
microphone’s specifications).
Enter the configuration mode, see page 34.

For example, according to its specifications, the 3M™ Duplex Microphone (78-
6911-4935-1) has an output level of -71dB at 1 kHz. According to the table, the
setting in the base station should be 8.
Note:
Due to slight microphone variability and cable impedance, you may need to
adjust the gain level setting by 1 or 2 dBs.
