Daktronics Sportsound Announcer’s Console - Manual

Sportsound Announcer’s Console Quick Start Guide
This guide will assist with starting up and operating a Sportsound ® Announcer’s console. For detailed console operation, configuration, and troubleshooting,
refer to the Sportsound Announcer’s Console Operation Manual (DD1798480).
Startup
Before Beginning: Place the console on a flat, sturdy surface and open
the cover. The cover may be completely removed and set aside if desired.
1. Connect one end of the XLR gooseneck to the wired microphone and
the other end into the jack on top of the announcer’s interface. A head-
set microphone may be plugged here instead.
Note: The announcer’s interface may be taken out of the case and
placed up to 3' (1 m) away.
2. Connect the 25' (7.6 m) XLR cable between the AUDIO OUT jack on
back of the console and the SYSTEM AUDIO jack on the bottom of
the fiber box. If there is no fiber box, the cable will typically connect to
a junction box instead.
3. Connect one end of the 5' (1.5 m) XLR cable to the LTIBLOX Laptop
Interface and the other end to MIC INPUT 3. The 3.5 mm plug may
be connected to the headphone jack of a laptop or MP3 player.
4. Locate the 3-prong power cord and plug into a standard outlet.
Ensure the MIC LIVE LED on the announcer’s console is not active
and all gain knobs on the mixer are turned down at this time.
5. Turn the SOUND SYSTEM switch to ON.
Power Down
Follow the above steps in reverse order to power down the system.
Place all accessories in the storage compartment in the rear of the case
and ensure nothing is pinched or squished when the lid is closed.
