Catchbox Microphones

Catchbox wireless microphones enable participants to engage in discussion during classtime. This article explains how to open the padded packaging to access the microphone and its amplifier. The instructions describe units powered by both alkaline and rechargeable lithium batteries.

Catchbox runs on batteries for two different devices

• 1 rechargeable lithium battery for the microphone transmitter and 1 AA alkaline battery for the amplifier

• Rechargeable batteries and charging stations are variously located at podiums, designated cabinets or in projection booths.

• Remove the cyclinder by rotating counter clockwise half a turn, then pull it out.
• Peel back Velcro to access the microphone.
• Toggle switch at the top of the microphone to turn on or off
  • Green light ON, red light OFF.
• On/off switch for amp battery: 
  • If light is green, battery is good - if red, battery is almost dead.
• To change rechargeable battery, carefully remove the microphone transmitter
• Microphone element is connected to the Catchbox
• Replace cyclinder and turn clockwise
