The Patriot is available in 35 VHF

frequencies.

1. MICROPHONE CABLE INPUT JACK

This jack is used for any 1/8"

microphone cable.

2. ON/OFF AND STANDBY SWITCH

The switch on the transmitter has three

positions: off, standby, and on. With the

transmitter ON (and the amplifier/speaker is

turned on) sound will come through the

amplifier/speaker. An initial “pop” sound

may be heard when turned to the ON posi-

tion. When the switch is turned to STANDBY

this mutes the microphone however still

powers the transmitter. When the switch is

in the STANDBY position the unit will not

broadcast however it will drain the battery.

As a general rule, use STANDBY when the

system will be used within a 15 minute time

period. If not in use more than 15 minutes,

the transmitter should be turned OFF to

conserve battery life.

3. POWER INDICATOR LIGHT

The light on the top of the transmitter will

shine red when the transmitter is in the

STANDBY mode. It will shine green when

the transmitter is in the ON position. If the

light does not come on when the switch is

turned to STANDBY or ON, check the battery.

4. GAIN CONTROL

This is a gain control for output of the

microphone. Turning the knob clockwise

increases the volume of the mic. Turning it

counter clockwise decreases the microphone

volume. This should only be adjusted when

all other gain/volume options have been tried.

5. BATTERY COMPARTMENT

The wireless transmitter uses one 9-volt

Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable battery.

DO NOT USE ANY OTHER RECHARGE-

ABLE 9-VOLT BATTERY. Average battery

life is six hours.

6. CHARGING JACK

This charging jack is used to charge the

battery without having to take the battery

out of the transmitter. The charger that is

provided will charge the transmitter and

the amplifier/speaker pack.

(Amplifier/Receiver continued)

9. RECEIVER

The receiver is installed inside the metal

enclosure. The receiver frequency must

match the frequency of the transmitter.

10. STRAP

This strap is adjustable to the length desired.

The strap can also be detached if needed.

11. POUCH

This pouch can hold the transmitter if neces-

sary for easy carrying.

*The amplifier/speaker and wireless can be

turned on and used while charging. You

may hear a very small buzz in the speaker

when you attempt to use the Patriot when

charging the battery. The Patriot can safely

be used in this manner.

1. POWER SUPPLY

This power supply needs to be plugged into

electricity for the charger to operate. The

opposite end of the power supply (the end

not plugged into electricity) needs to be

firmly plugged into the charger.

2. AMPLIFIER/RECEIVER PLUG

This plug needs to be inserted into the

amplifier/speaker to charge. It is labeled

AMP/SPEAKER. The CHARGING or

READY light will light up (see numbers 4

and 5) when this is plugged in.

3. TRANSMITTER PLUG

This plug needs to be inserted into the

transmitter for charging. It is labeled

TRANSMITTER.

4. CHARGING LIGHT

The CHARGING light will light up if the

amplifier/speaker and transmitter plug is

inserted in the appropriate place and the

batteries on either unit are not fully charged.

5. READY LIGHT

The READY light will appear when the

batteries on the amplifier/receiver and the

transmitter are completely charged. This is

a trickle charger so the batteries will not be

charging once the units are fully charged.

This will prevent overcharging of the batter-

ies and a longer battery life. Even though

it’s a trickle charge, it is still not recom-

mended to have charger plugged into the

amp/speaker or transmitter for more than

seven days. FOR REORDERING PURPOSES

THE CHARGER PART NO. IS PTLC-2.

on the amplifier/speaker should light up

as well.

E) Plug the end labeled TRANSMITTER

into the transmitter.

F) Charge the batteries until the READY

light lights up. Unplug the transmitter

and the amplifier/speaker plugs. You can

leave the power supply plugged into the

electrical outlet. No harm can be done

with the charger plugged into electricity

and the ends exposed.

2. SET THE VOLUME CONTROL ON THE BACK

OF THE AMPLIFIER/SPEAKER TO NUMBER 4

(11 o’clock position). This is a good starting

volume.

heard through the speaker. This is normal.

Turn the transmitter off to save

battery power if the user is not going to

operate the system for more than 15

minutes. Turn the transmitter to STANDBY

if the user is going to operate the system

within a 15 minute time period but currently

does not want to broadcast.

8. THE USER SHOULD NOW BE BROAD-

CASTING. You can adjust the VOLUME

on the back of the amplifier/speaker to the

proper volume setting. At any time during

Troubleshooting Guide

Check the transmitter. Is the power indicator light, on top of the

transmitter GREEN? If there is no green light on

top of the transmitter, then the battery needs to be

recharged or replaced. If the light is RED, turn

the transmitter switch from STANDBY to ON.

Average battery life is six hours.

Check the amplifier/speaker. Is the light on the ON/OFF switch on the

amplifier/ speaker lighted? If this is not on then

check the following:

1) Is the switch in the upwards or ON position?

2) Is the battery plugged into the battery jack in

the back of the amplifier/speaker?

3) Has the battery been recharged more than 250

times or is it more than two years old? Typical

life of a battery is 250-500 recharges. There is a

number on the battery. The first number is the

month and the second number is the year the

battery was purchased. This will help determine

the life of the battery.

Check the charger. When charging the amplifier/speaker and the

transmitter, is the charging light lighted? If no

READY or CHARGING light is lighted check to

make sure both plugs are properly inserted into

the transmitter and amplifier/speaker AND make

sure the charger is plugged into electricity. The

power supply must be properly plugged in to charge.

Adjust the collar mic, headset mic or lapel mic... ...so that the collar or headset mic is no more than

3 inches from your lips OR the lapel mic is no

more than 6 inches from your lips. If more volume

is needed, increase the volume on the amplifier/

speaker or increase the volume with the gain

control on the transmitter.

Adjust or change the location... ...of the amplifier/speaker. Feedback is caused

with the human voice goes through a microphone,

through an amplifier/speaker, and back through

the microphone causing a loop.

Attempt to lower the gain control... ...on the transmitter and increase the gain on the

amplifier/speaker.

Call Lifeline Amplification Systems. A change in frequency may be needed.

Check the battery in the transmitter. Make sure the battery in the transmitter is fully charged.

Try a 9-volt Energizer or Duracell battery.

NEVER charge an Energizer or Duracell battery.

Check the microphone cable. Wiggle the microphone cable. If the unit cuts in and

out while this cable is being moved you need to

replace the cable.
