INSTALLATION Setting Up Connect Amplifier to the Sound Source Place the amplifier near the sound source and connect the audio leads between the sound source and the amplifier. This direct connection method with leads gives the best results. TV Connection: For a TV with SCART connector audio output: connect the SCART adaptor to the TV set; connect the RCA jack on the SCART adaptor using the RCA convertor cable; connect the 3.5mm stereo cable to the RCA convertor cable; connect the other end of the 3.
INSTALLATION Telephone Connection: Plug the supplied telephone cord into the TEL jack . The other end of the cord should be connected to a telephone convertor adaptor. Push the plug of the telephone convertor into the telephone wall socket. Connect the Loop Wire The unit comes with a 38 meters loop wire. Place the wire on the floor following the wall edges so that the wire runs around the whole room, starting and ending at the amplifier.
INSTALLATION Connect the Microphone If for some reason a direct connection is not possible a microphone can be used to pick up the sound source. Or, a microphone can be used simultaneously with line input to pick up background noise e.g. the doorbell. A microphone can also be used for someone to speak directly into the loop system whilst the hearing aid user is listening to a sound source. Connect the external microphone wire provided into the 2.5mm stereo jack, marked MIC1 on the unit.
USING THE LH600 Turn the LH600 On/Off To turn the unit on, turn the rotary volume control clockwise. The rotary volume is located at the corner position of the unit. The power LED will turn to indicate the power is on. To turn the unit off, turn the rotary GREEN volume control fully counter-clockwise. The power LED goes off to indicate the unit power is off. Volume Control The rotary volume control adjusts the volume received by the hearing aid. Turn fully clockwise for the maximum volume.
USING THE LH600 Microphone Input Selector The microphone selection switches allow you to fick between two different microphone sources.. Select MIC1 or MIC2 depending on which source you require. Alternatively, you can use both input sources at the same time, simply press both MIC1 and MIC2.
