FAQs
?
Why doesn't my RemoteMix Sport ring when a call comes in?
!
The audible ringer found on other RemoteMix units was replaced
with a visual ring indicator on the RemoteMix Sport. It is a red LED
that flashes when a call comes in. The indicator is located next to
the keypad toggle switch on the volume control panel.
?
Will your RemoteMix Sport provide phantom power for my
condenser microphone?
!
No, our devices will not provide phantom power. If you are connect-
ing your microphone directly to a JK Audio RemoteMix, you should
use a dynamic mic.
?
How do I adjust the level of the balanced output on the Re-
moteMix Sport?
!
The Balanced XLR output of the RemoteMix Sport is a fixed line
level output. If needed you should adjust the audio level at the input
of the device you are sending audio to.
?
I've lost my power supply for my RemoteMix Sport unit. I have
another power supply that fits from a different product. Can I
use this instead?
!
NO! Never use a power supply other than the one that was sup-
plied by your manufacturer. Power supplies are available in either
AC or DC output with many combinations of voltage and available
current. DC supplies carry either positive or negative center pin
output and may or may not be "regulated". If you connect a nega-
tive center pin power supply to a positive center pin jack, it's just
like hooking up the battery cables to your car backwards. Obviously
you would not want to do this to your car or your expensive audio
equipment. "Regulation" is the tolerance to the specified voltage of
your DC power supply. All of our DC power supplies have a low
noise 5% tolerance. This means that our 9V DC power supplies will
always output 9 volts +/- 5%, whether you are using no power at all
or applying a full load. Most consumer power supplies are not regu-
lated. A non-regulated 9V, 800mA power supply could actually out-
put 16V until an 800 mA load is applied. This could invariably dam-
age your equipment, and also create a great deal of noise. There is
also no standard for the size of your power jack. This means that a
16VAC power supply and a 1.5VDC power supply could both have
the same 2.1mm jack.
