Typical Installation & Application
Classroom Scenario Installation Requirements
Microphone Installation
- Installation Height: Keep close to the speaker on the premise of safety, avoid accidental collision damage
- Installation Method & Location: Hoisted with a boom, horizontally centered near the podium, microphone disk facing the podium area for teacher’s voice pickup
- Power Supply: DC 5V via USB interface, connect to USB socket/adapter/TV/large display
Speaker Installation
- Installation Height: Recommended 2.0m – 2.6m from the ground
- Installation Method & Location: Wall mounted with brackets, installed in the middle and front of the walls on both sides of the classroom
- Connection: SPKOUT interface connect to active speakers/power amplifiers via 3.5mm audio cable (low-latency active speakers recommended)
Accessory Installation
- USB Socket: Install optional USB socket panel next to the speaker for convenient power supply
- Switch Panel: Install single switch panel at door/blackboard side with label, for one-key on/off of microphone and speaker
Common Problems & Solutions
- Startup Howling: Slight howling is normal at startup; the device adapts to the sound field environment automatically, and howling stops after learning completion
- Persistent Howling: When connected to PC via USB, check if the listening function is on; verify no audio input/output wiring loopback
- Unclear Sound with Reverberation: Check if the room is too small with excessive reverberation; adjust EQ settings of power amplifier/speaker, reduce low frequency parameters
Applicable Scenarios
- Conference Rooms: Small/medium/large conference rooms, PoE cascade for full coverage pickup, clear voice for meetings and video conferences
- Classrooms & Lecture Halls: School classrooms, training lecture halls, focus on teacher’s voice pickup and remote audio playback
- Office Spaces: Open offices, meeting areas, realize flexible audio pickup and communication
- Remote Education & Training: Online classrooms, remote training rooms, support local pickup and remote audio output
