Guided Tour - AL1 Presentation Transmitter
Samson AirLine
1: Power / Battery LED - This LED flashes once when the AL1 is first turned on and lights
steadily red when there is less than 2 hours of battery power remaining, indicating that the
battery needs to be changed.
2: Antenna - This permanently attached flexible antenna should be fully extended during
normal operations. See the "Setting Up and Using Your AirLine System" section on page 17
in this manual for more information about antenna positioning.
3: Electret condenser microphone - This high- quality unidirectional electret condenser
microphone with metal windscreen is optimized for clear, crisp reproduction of speech.
It is active whenever the AL1 is powered on, as long as there is no connection made to the
lavalier microphone input connector (see #4 below). When a plug is inserted into the
lavalier microphone input connector, this built-in microphone is muted.
4: Lavalier microphone input connector - Use this
standard 2.5 mm mini-jack if you want to connect
an external lavalier microphone to the AL1.
Note that, because the AL1 has a built-in electret
condenser microphone (see #3 above), the use of an
external lavalier mic is optional and not required.
The AL1 provides 2.7V of phantom power, so
condenser mics can be used if desired.
