CONFIGURING AND TESTING YOUR CHAT 50

Consult the CHAT 50 User’s Manual for all device and software
configuration procedures as needed.

ChAt 50 Audio ConfigurAtion

To ensure optimal sound quality, the CHAT 50 MUST be tuned properly
prior to use or after the device has been moved. The CHAT 50’s audio
settings must also be customized for the specific application it is to be
used with and for the specific device it is to be connected to.

The CHAT 50 derives its audio settings from the Windows sound settings
if it is attached to a PC or through the 3rd party application’s settings
(Skype, etc.) Refer to the tuning procedures in the Optimizing Sound
Quality section in the CHAT 50 User’s Manual or consult the specific
3rd party application’s tuning adjustments.

For further details on configuring various devices for the CHAT 50 audio
settings, refer to the CHAT 50 User’s Manual.
