User's Manual

Determine which of the two microphone configurations are best for

your application: the long tethered remote microphone or the internal

microphone.

If you choose the internal microphone, you do not need to do

anything. If you choose the external microphone, connect the external

microphone by inserting the plug male end of the mini connector on

the microphone cable into the female jack found on the

J1W

. Push the

connectors firmly together. Twist the plug clockwise slightly to lock

the connector in place. HAND TIGHT ONLY! Switching between

the internal and external microphones is automatic and accomplished

when the external microphone plug is inserted into (or removed from)

the microphone jack on the J1W.

Power

IMPORTANT: Before

applying power to the

J1W

ensure that:

a) The Transmitter On/Off Switch is OFF, or

b) An antenna is connected to the

J1W.

Never apply power to the

J1W

without an antenna connected.

The J1W is powered by two 9 volt batteries which will operate both

the transmitter and the recorder for up to 3 hours.

1.5.2 Microphone and Antenna Placement

As a general rule the external microphone should be as close as

possible to mouth level. Sound waves travel in straight lines and the

placement should reduce obvious obstructions. If a microphone is to

be placed behind a surface, which is not porous, a small pin hole

should be placed in the surface opposite the microphones diaphragm.
