PREPARATION FOR USE
Thank you for purchasing the Hamilton ALS700 Wireless RF Personal Listening
System. The system can be installed quickly and easily. It provides quality listening
assistance in compliance with the American’s With Disabilities Act (ADA), which
requires public facilities with audio systems to make listening assistance available to
their audiences.
The ALS700 provides outstanding quality. This system operates up to 150 feet line of
sight. The system is configured with one wireless transmitter and 6 portable wireless
belt pack receivers. The system is configured with two channel in 75.5MHz and
75.9MHz band. The system is expandable to limitless receivers.
This Assistive Listening System is versatile. It can be operated indoor or out without
affecting performance. Excellent for any application from small classrooms and
boardrooms to auditoriums and sanctuaries. The System offers great auditory
reception without seating confinements.
The ALS700 connects to the line out from a tape player or from an existing sound
systems and broadcasts the audio as a FM radio signal.

Inst
Observe polarity. To preserve battery life, always turn ALSR700 receiver off when not in
use. When the POWER SWITCH (#16) to turn on, the sound becomes weak or
distorted, replace battery. The life expectancy from an alkaline battery is 17-20 hours.
BATTERY WARNING
1. Be sure that the batteries are installed correctly. Wrong polarity may damage the
unit.
2. Use only the size and type of batteries specified.
3. Do not mix old and new batteries.
4. Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium)
batteries.
5. For better performance and longer operating time, we recommend the use of
alkaline-type batteries.
6. If the unit is not to be used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries.
Old or leaking batteries can cause damage to the unit and may void the warranty.
7. Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat
and rupture. (Follow battery manufacturer’s directions).
8. Do not dispose of batteries in fire, batteries may leak or explode.
OPERATING THE RECEIVER
Plug the included ALSB700 earphones into the phone jack (#12) on top of the receiver.
While wearing your earphones, stand near the ASLM700 transmitter.

NOTE: You may wish to dispose of the foam ear pads after use or they can be re-used
after being washed in mild detergent, rinsed and air-dried.
CONFIRMING CORRECT INSTALLATION
For the best performance, (and to minimize the possibility of interference from another
source), we suggest you experiment to find the minimal height the rod antenna (#4)
must be extended in order to perform well in your particular environment.
