INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
VERIFACT EGC
AUDIO MONITORING SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The Verifact E-AGC is an omni-directional, low
®
impedance, electret condenser microphone with built-in preamp and automatic gain control. It can pick up normal sounds approximately 25 ft. away, or within a 50 ft. diameter circle. It’s built-in limiter prevents the output signal to be overdriven thus minimizing distortion. Verifact E-AGC produces line level output (0 dB) and
®
can be located up to 1,000’ from the Louroe base station. The gain of the microphone can be adjusted through a potentiometer up to +10dB. The microphone preamp is mounted inside a singe gang Bell Box housing that is designed for outdoor use or in moist environment. The Verifact E-AGC is compatible with
®
all Louroe Audio Base Stations or Louroe Audio Interface Adapters.

INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
Verifact EGC microphone Is designed for surface mounting to a wall or a pole. It should be located 6 to 8 ft. from the area of desired coverage. One inch threaded knock-outs are located at the top and back side of the Bell Box for conduit connection. As a finished unit, the Verifact E-AGC microphone is classified as Weather Resistant . Sealing around faceplate and conduit connection is required. Make certain that when Verifact EGC assembly is mounted, the microphone portion is facing downwards.

MICROPHONE CONNECTION
A 3-pin header is located on the back of the microphone housing, marked A, B, C.
A represents +12 Vdc Power B represents Audio Output C represents Ground
If using West Penn 452 or equivalent with same color code, starting from
right to left of the pluggable connector, connect as follows: (See connections on right)
1. Red wire (12 Vdc) connects to terminal A or right hand most terminal of the pluggable connector.
2. Black wire (audio out) connects to terminal B or middle terminal of the pluggable connector
3. Bare wire (ground) connects to terminal C or left hand most of the pluggable connector.
4. After all 3 wires are tightened in place on the pluggable connector, plug it in to the 3 pin header located on the pcboard. See interconnection diagram on next page.
CONNECTING VERIFACT EGC MICROPHONE TO A LOUROE BASE STATION OR AUDIO
®
INTERFACE ADAPTER
All Louroe audio base stations and Interface Adapters have corresponding terminal blocks marked A, B, C. Connect other end of cable as follows:
1. Red wire from microphone connects to pin A of Base Station (12Vdc)
2. Black wire from microphone connects to pin B of Base Station (Audio Output)
3. Bare wire from microphone connects to pin C of Base Station (Ground)
CONNECTING VERIFACT™ E-AGC MICROPHONE TO OTHER AUDIO DEVICES.
If a Louroe audio base station is not used and microphone is being connected directly to another receiver from other manufacturers, 12 Vdc power must be applied to terminals A and C. (A is positive, C is negative). Terminals B and C of microphone (C is common) go to the “Audio In” or “Line in” of the audio source. We recommend shielded cable connections for terminal B and C (See last page for interconnection diagram)
INSTALLATION TIP: If area to be monitored for audio is noisy or has background disturbances, the microphone should be positioned close to the subject (4’ - 8’) if possible. Also, the microphone output can be lowered by adjusting the gain control potentiometer. Rotating clockwise will increase the gain; counterclockwise decreases the gain. The factory setting is 0dB output.
