A Listen Stationary FM system can do more than you think. While a Listen system can deliver crystal clear sound to a person with a hearing impairment, it can also be used in other ways including: • Language interpretation. • Wireless speaker/receiver in nurseries, locker rooms, offices. • Wireless audio distribution to remote rooms. • Remote cueing. Classrooms Sports Venues Whether it’s a 1,000 person high school gym or a 100,000 person baseball stadium, a Listen system can deliver sound to every seat in the facility. Sport enthusiasts, press and the athletic competitors can all enjoy the benefits of a Listen system. When you can hear better, you learn more. A Listen system can deliver the instructor’s voice or the voice of an interpreter directly to the student’s ears. The end result is improved grades and instructors who are less fatigued because they don’t have to speak loudly. Theaters Have you ever been experiencing a live play and asked your partner “what did she just say?” We all have some level of hearing impairment and sometimes we sit in a seat where the sound is not as clear as we would like. A Listen system delivers the voice of the actor directly to your ears. Places of Worship The primary message in a worship service is delivered in the form of sound. A Listen system can ensure that every individual can fully experience the service. You can use Listen products for auditory assistance and for language interpretation. You can also place a speaker/receiver in the nursery or in an overflow area. 2 Listen Stationary FM System Remote Mounted Antenna Kits are the single solution for all of your indoor remote antenna needs. (LA-122 72/216 MHz) (LA-130 863 MHz) If you can’t run wires, an LR-100 Listen stationary receiver (72/216MHz only) can wirelessly receive the audio signal and deliver it to the remote room sound system. 3 A Listen receiver allows the office staff to hear what’s going on in the primary meeting room. Staffing the nursery or overflow area doesn’t mean missing the service. A Listen LR-600 speaker/receiver (72/216MHz only) allows the service to be heard almost anywhere. Portable receivers with earphones are worn by guests. Sound from the mixing console is broadcast to the receiver. The LT-800 transmitter connects to the audio output of a mixing console or any other audio device. Interpreters listen to the service in the base language and interpret the service into a different language. The interpreted language is transmitted to individuals in the room who listen on a portable receiver with an earphone. 4 LT-800 Stationary FM Transmitter Thanks to its outstanding audio quality, the Listen LT-800 Stationary Transmitter can be used in a variety of applications. The LT-800 can be connected to your main audio system to broadcast a high quality audio signal to belt pack receivers, stationary receivers, or wireless speaker/receivers (72/216MHz only). The end result– your audience can hear and understand the presentation better because of improved speaker placement or because they have their own belt pack and earphone.

Don’t miss a single sound. Listen. Listen Technologies Corporation believes in experiencing every sound, whether it’s the carefully chosen words of a presiding judge or the subtleties of expression emanating from an orchestra’s string section. It’s all a part of the experience, and Listen is dedicated to making sure every individual hears every sound. Listen’s line of stationary infrared (IR) products deliver on this promise by providing a carefully tuned system of products. Listen makes the process of specifying, ordering, installing, and using the system simple and straight forward. A Listen IR system fills the room with non-visible infrared light. Each receiver detects the IR light and turns it into sound ensuring every individual can be part of the total experience. Because it’s light, the IR signal never leaves the room and it cannot be received out of the room, thereby creating a secure environment with no concern of eavesdropping. Places of Worship Members of a congregation come to their places of worship looking for words of encouragement and enlightenment. A Listen system ensures that each individual can fully enjoy this experience. Using IR technology ensures that only those within the sanctuary receive the signal. Performing Art Centers Imagine going to a theater performance and not being able to understand all that is being said. A Listen system delivers high quality sound to every listener in the theater, while ensuring the performance is not recorded outside of the main hall. Classrooms Studies prove that students learn more when they can hear well. A Listen system delivers the voice of the instructor directly to their ears. Because IR signals are isolated to each room, the same receiver can be used for every classroom with the same settings. With a radio (RF) signal, the receiver must be tuned to different channels for each room. Language Interpretation 1 The key witness in a case is a student from Brazil and only speaks Portuguese. A Listen system delivers an interpreter’s English version of the testimony to each of the jurors. Since the IR light will not leave the courtroom, the judge is not concerned about the testimony being heard outside of the courtroom. Listen Stationary IR System There are three main components involved in the Listen Stationary IR system: Receivers(s) The IR light from the radiators is detected by the receivers and turned into sound. Listen offers the LR-42 stethoscope and LR-44 lanyard style receivers. The stethoscope is an “all-in-one” unit, making it easy to keep track of checked out equipment. The lanyard receiver accepts any style of 3.5 mm earphone, giving users more choices. Radiator(s)/Emitter(s) The radiator transforms the RF audio signal from the LT-82 transmitters into an IR signal. This is essentially a “headlight” that illuminates the room with non-visible IR light. The size and shape of the room will determine how many radiators or “headlights” you’ll need to fill the room for adequate signal coverage. It’s powered by either the LT-82 transmitter or an LA-205 extension/replacement power supply. Hardware for most types of mounting configurations, comes standard with each radiator, and is available in two colors; grey or white. Transmitter(s) Highlights • Simple to specify, install, maintain, and use. • Secure – the signal will not leave the room. • Up to four simultaneous mono or stereo channels allows for expanded applications. • Uses higher modulation (2.3 to 3.8MHz) frequencies thereby decreasing the risk of light interference from fluorescent lights and other sources. • Installation is simple using CAT-5 cables for power distribution. • The radiator mounting hardware is included with each radiator. • Users will enjoy the simple but refined look and feel of both the stetho and lanyard receivers. • Advanced battery management ensures long battery life. • Uses standard AAA alkaline batteries or an optional rechargeable pack (LA-364). • Compatible with other manufacturers. • Limited lifetime warranty (radiator – 3 years and accessories 90 days). The LT-82 Stationary IR Transmitter accepts audio from an audio mixing console or other sources. It then turns this audio signal into an RF signal and delivers it to an LA-140 radiator via RG-58 coaxial cable. The LT-82 also provides DC power for up to two LA-140 radiators via standard CAT-5 cabling. For a single channel system (mono or stereo) use one LT-82. Add more channels (up to 4 total) by adding more LT-82 units. Two cables connect the LT-82 Transmitter to the radiator(s). CAT-5 cable is used for power, and RG-58 coaxial cable is used for the signal. When more than one radiator is needed, they can be daisy-chained using the same type of cable. One LT-82 can power up to two radiator. 2 LT-82 Stationary IR Transmitter The Listen LT-82 is the heart of the stationary IR listening system. It takes the desired audio signal and sends it via coaxial cable to one or more IR radiator(s) (LA-140). The LT-82 can be operated in mono or stereo on one of four different carriers; up to four LT-82 units may be connected to provide up to four mono or stereo carriers to the radiator(s).
