6. Programmable Channel Select (Listen Button)

The Main advantage of the LR-5200 receiver is the functionality of the programmable Listen Button.
The Listen Button can be programmed for Channel Select Mode, Seek, or be Disabled. This mode
can only be changed via the iDSP Software Suite. The default mode is Channel Select Mode.

Note: The LR-5200-IR receiver operates on 4 wide band channels. Channel 1 (2.3 MHz), Channel 2
(2.8 MHz), Channel 3 (3.3 MHz) and Channel 4 (3.8 MHz). In order for the LR-5200 to receive audio it
must be on the same channel (frequency) as a transmitter/radiator in the facility.

Channel Select Mode

The Listen Button on your receiver has been
programmed from the factory for Channel
Select Mode. This mode is especially useful
for applications where users are required to
select between active channels (such as
language interpretation, multiple exhibits or
multiple classrooms), and you don’t want
them to have to go through all available

channels to nd the appropriate channel. In

this mode the button can be programmed
to increment only through the desired active
channels in your facility and lock out all the
other unused channels.

PAGE 9 l LR-5200-IR IDSP RECEIVER MANUAL

CH 1

1. Channel Select:
(Listen Button)

In this mode when the Listen Button is pressed the unit will increment through the channel list to the
next programmed channel. For example if there are three channels programmed (English, Spanish
and German) and the unit is on English and the button is pressed the unit will switch to Spanish. If the
button is pressed again the unit will switch to German and an additional press will take the unit back to
English again.

There are two modes to customize the channel list for the Listen Button. The two modes are Automatic
Channel Selection and Manual Channel Selection. These modes can be programmed using the unit
or via the IDSP Software Suite. See page 17.

Your Listen receiver has been shipped to you with the Automatic Channel Selection, Auto 4 (channels
1, 2, 3 and 4) enabled.

LR-5200-IR IDSP RECEIVER MANUAL l PAGE 16

Advanced Program Features and Listen’s iDSP Software Suite

To manage the advanced program features on any of the iDSP™ receivers a windows based User
Interface (UI) software is required.

This software is available free of charge
from Listen Technologies. To download the
software log onto http://www.listentech.com/

support/software/idsp-software-suite/

and follow the instructions.

With the UI software, direct communication
is provided via the Micro USB connection
on the receiver. Once connected the UI
software provides setup and adjustment of
the following functions of the LR-5200 receiver.

Note: A help le for the UI software is included

with the download and will provide detailed
instructions for set up and management of
all the advanced program features of the
LR-5200 receiver.

Squelch

The purpose of squelch is to mute the audio output of the receiver when the signal from the
transmitter/ radiator(s) is turned off or the level is too weak to be received. Without squelch radio
noise will be heard in the earphone. The squelch on the receiver can be adjusted to mute the
audio at different signal strengths. There are 20 squelch settings. The lowest squelch setting (no
squelch) is “0” and the tightest squelch setting is “20”. Your Listen receiver has been shipped to
you with the squelch setting of 3.

When to Adjust Squelch Setting:

For maximum range the squelch setting should be set to a low level (0, 1, or 2). However
when setting the squelch level low radio noise will be heard in the earphone when the
signal strength is low.

If no radio noise is desired to be heard when the signal strength is low then set the squelch
setting to a higher number. When setting the squelch higher than 3 the receiver will have
reduced range due to the audio being cut off when the signal is low.

Channel Labels

The channel labels are displayed on the OLED status screen. The default is the channel number the
receiver has been programmed to receive, i.e. “CH-1”. Customization of this display can be created
to better identify the type of audio, for example CH-1 could be changed to display “Spanish” if the
receiver is used for language translation.

PAGE 17 l LR-5200-IR IDSP RECEIVER MANUAL

Auto Power Mode

The auto power mode will automatically power the receiver on when the unit is removed from
the charging device, displaying the unit ID, battery status and the active channel. When the unit is
returned to the charging device the unit will automatically turn off and resume charging operation.
Your Listen receiver has been shipped to you with the Auto Power Mode enabled.

Auto OFF Mode

The Auto OFF Mode when enabled will automatically turn the receiver off after a period of time if no
IR signal is detected by the receiver. There are four setting OFF, 10, 15, and 30 minutes. Your Listen
receiver has been shipped to you with the Auto OFF Mode enable to 30 minutes.

Unit ID

The unit ID number provides a unique identication for each receiver that is displayed on the OLED

status screen. This can be any 3 digit number between 000 and 999. The unit ID allows venues to track
individual units and for easy dispensing and inventory control. Your Listen receiver has been shipped to
you with a Unit ID of 000.

Brightness Control

The Brightness Control adjusts the level of brightness of the OLED display. There are four settings Auto,
Bright, Dim and Disabled. In the Auto mode the unit uses an internal light sensor and automatically dims
the display when the light level is below approximately 10 Lux. In the Bright, Dim or Disabled mode the
unit disables the light sensor and leaves the OLED in the selected Bright or Dim state. In the disabled
mode the unit disables the display from lighting during normal operation except for the power on
sequence or when the power button is momentarily pressed to check status. The receiver is shipped
with the Auto Brightness Control Mode enabled.

Auto Seek Mode

When Auto Seek Mode is enabled the receiver will power up to the same channel that it was on
when it was last turned off. If no signal is present or the signal is lost on that channel the receiver will
continuously seek for a channel with IR signal until one is found. Auto seek is excellent for applications
where users are moving from room to room or exhibit to exhibit. Auto Seek Mode has two settings
ON and OFF. Your Listen receiver has been shipped to you in the Auto Seek OFF Mode.

Jack Sense

The jack sense mode when enabled will automatically turn the receiver on when a headset is inserted
into the 3.5 mm output jack on the receiver. The receiver will automatically turn off after 60 seconds
when the headset is removed from the 3.5 mm output jack. Your listen receiver has been shipped to
you with the Jack Sense Mode disabled.

Note: If Jack Sense is on and Auto Power is on, the receiver will ignore jack sense while on the charger.

PAGE 19 l LR-5200-IR IDSP RECEIVER MANUAL

Troubleshooting LR-5200 Receivers:

The receiver has no power.

Make sure the unit has either a fully charged battery or a Listen approved wall charging transformer is
connected. Make sure the Power button on the top of the unit has been pressed to turn the unit ON. If this
does not work, make sure the battery is installed properly and / or install a different battery.

There is no audio.

Make sure the volume control is turned up on the receiver to at least 25%. Check the Intelligent Earphone/
Neck Loop Lanyard to insure it’s plugged in all the way into the jacks on the top of the unit. Make sure the
Ear Phone is plugged into the Ear Phone/Neck Loop Lanyard. Check to insure the transmitter/radiator(s) is
broadcasting an audio source. Verify the receiver is tuned to the same channel (frequency) as the transmitter/
radiator(s). If the IR signal is too weak, the receiver will squelch and mute the audio source; move closer to the
radiator or add more radiators to provide more range and freedom of movement.

The audio is distorted.

Check the receiver is on the correct channel and make sure your using the clearest channel possible. Verify
the audio on the transmitter is not turned up too loud; this will cause distortion. Insure the Intelligent Ear Phone/
Neck Loop Lanyard connectors are pushed all the way into the jacks on top of the unit. Check the Ear Phone
to verify it is plugged all the way into the Ear Phone/Neck Loop Lanyard. Make sure the receiver is not too close
to the transmitter/radiator.

I cannot pick up the signal on the receiver.

Check to make sure the receiver and the transmitter are on the same exact channel frequency. Also verify
the receiver is in broadcast range of the transmitter/radiator by moving closer.

My battery is not charging.

Verify the clear plastic pull tab has been removed from the receiver battery door engaging the battery
connections. Make sure the battery is installed properly and that the unit is plugged into the charging device
correctly. Check the charging device to verify it is plugged in the proper power outlet and power is available
at the outlet. If this does not work, install a different battery.

I want to run the unit from a wall transformer.

Simply plug a Listen approved charging transformer (LA-421) into the Micro USB connector on the side of the
unit. A battery must be installed at all times even when operating the unit with a wall charging transformer.
