12. PAGEFIRST: PRIORITY MUTE

This optional feature interfaces with an independent classroom paging system.
When the page is broadcast, all audio from the system is muted, ensuring
important school-wide messages are never missed.

How it works:
1. PageFirst sensor clip is hung

around the lead wires attached to
the classroom paging speaker.

2. The clip is hard-wired to the CAT

860.

3. As a page is broadcast, the

sensor clip detects the audio
signal through induction and
immediately mutes the CAT 860.

4. When the page is over, the audio

from the CAT 860 returns to
normal volume level.

(For full installation details refer to
the install sheet included with the
optional PageFirst sensor clip)

11. USING THE REDMIKE TO AMPLIFY
EXTERNAL AUDIO EQUIPMENT

The REDMIKE includes a 3.5mm audio input jack to connect to an audio source
like a laptop or MP3 player. The REDMIKE will transmit the audio signal to be
played through the system.
If your system includes two REDMIKEs, we recommend using Channel B (student
mike) to amplify the external audio equipment so the teacher’s volume on the
Channel A (teacher mike) does not have to be adjusted.

To determine which REDMIKE is set to Channel B, you can look at the switch on
the back of the mike or speak into one of the mics and watch which set of LED’s
glow on the front panel of the CAT 860 (A Volume or B Volume correspond to
Channels A or B).

1. Plug your external audio

equipment (for example, laptop),
into the input on the REDMIKE
labeled “INPUT” using a 3.5mm
patch cable.

2. Adjust the volume on the CAT

860 receiver which corresponds to
selected mic channel A or B.
