IR transmission
The IR transmitter transmits directly to the sensor. However; due to the strength of the IR transmitter, the infrared signal will bounce off the walls, ceiling and floor for reception thus providing continuous connectivity throughout the room. Benefit: total freedom of movement within the room with no restriction of orientation.
"What's said in the room, stays in the room".
Infrared will not penetrate a solid surface thus preventing any transmission from going out of the room.
a brief word about infrared
Infrared is a light ray that is below the visible spectrum, just like the sound spectrum extends beyond your hearing ability. An example of infrared transmission is the remote control for your TV set. When a button is pressed, a beam of infrared light is emitted by a Light Emitting Diode (LED) from the remote control. It is detected by a receiving diode in your TV set. When you press a certain command on your control, the internal electronics cause the infrared light to flicker in a programmed sequential pattern (called modulating the light beam). The modulated infrared beam is detected by the receiving diode and is electronically decoded. The decoded signal activates the circuitry to perform the command function on your TV set.
So how does this apply to the infrared communication system you are about to start using? The microphone/transmitter has several Light Emitting Diodes (LED) that emit infrared light beams to the sensor located in the corner of the room. Now when you talk into the microphone, the microphone element modulates the light beam, causing it to flicker in sync with your speech. The sensor detects the sequential signal and the electronic circuitry in the Quantum II converts that sequential signal into a line level analog audio signal. Now that audio signal can be fed into an amplifier. The amplifier magnifies the electronic signal and sends it to the speakers. This causes the speaker cone to move in sync with your voice. The speaker replicates your voice and disperses your voice evenly throughout the room.
product description
The Quantum II is an infrared wireless microphone sound system. It is the nucleus of the classroom sound field system which provides optimum voice reinforcement.
The addition of a Quantum II sound system will transform your classroom into a totally hands free, voice re-enforcement system, resulting in reduced voice fatigue, enhanced student listening and improved student learning. The wireless function permits 360° connectivity throughout the classroom regardless of body position or orientation.
The system is comprised of an infrared detecting sensor. The sensor collects the IR wireless signal from the microphone/transmitter and sends a composite signal to the mixer/amplifier. The receiver transforms the composite signal into an analog audio signal which is fed to the Quantum II mixer. An additional audio sources, such as; computer, DVD, VCR or Projector can be plugged in to the Quantum II. The AUX IN level controls the individual audio input. The audio will then be fed to the speaker in the column for voice reinforcement throughout the room.
On the front panel of the Quantum II, there is a 3.5mm output jacks for interface with an assistive listening system (ALS) or lesson capture (LINE OUT).
The microphone / transmitter can be one or two Sapphire Pendants or Handhelds. The rechargeable batteries will provide 6 – 8 hours of service per charge. The drop-in charger will recharge the batteries overnight, ready for another day's use.
Reliable performance. Use with confidence.
assembly and installation
Mounting the Quantum II on the wall, please review the following guidelines.
- Selecting the most appropriate location for the Quantum can be the most challenging. Every room is a little different, but in general the most functional location is installing it on the front wall off to one side or the other approximately from either side wall.
- An alternate choice would be on either side wall, located approximately 14 the distance from the front of the room.
NOTE: Be conscious of an AC outlet requirement for power.
- Once you've decided where to mount the Quantum II, hold the 'U' bracket straight up and down against the wall with bottom of the bracket approximately 5-6 feet above the floor. Using a level to assure true vertical orientation, mark the two mounting holes.
- If installing onto a drywall, drill two 14 " holes and insert a molley bolt provided. With a #2 Phillips head screwdriver, mount the wall bracket.
- If installing into a wood or like material, use two sheet metal screws with washers to mount the bracket to the wall.
- For concrete wall, you'll need to acquire and install a plastic insert for a # 8 sheet metal screw and install accordingly.
- With the bracket mounted, route the plastic wire tie through the two tab holes. Hold the power supply onto the two raised tabs with the AC plug end toward the floor. With the power supply resting on the pegs, tighten the wire tie thus securing the power supply to the bracket.
- Insert the DC plug into the power input jack and place the Quantum II into the bracket, secure each end with the bolt and washer provided.
- Orient the Quantum with center pointing diagonally across the listening area.
- Plug the power cord into an AC outlet
The Quantum II can be operated as a free stance system on a speaker stand. To use in this mode of operation:
- Locate the system off to one side in the front of the room. Point the front of the unit toward the center of the listening area. Find an AC outlet and plug the system in.
- Side wall location is also acceptable. Locate unit on either side about 14 from front of room. Point the front diagonally across the listening area. Locate an AC outlet and plug it in.

DCM BNT SPquantum II controls
- Channel A turns power "on/off" (red LED indicator) and adjusts the volume of the IR microphone assigned to it. Normally the Pendant transmitter is assigned to channel A. When the transmitter is turned "on" a green LED will light, indicating that an IR signal is being received from the transmitter.
- Channel B also turns power "on/off" and adjusts the volume of the microphone assigned to it. Normally the handheld microphone is assigned to channel B. When the transmitter is turned "on" an amber LED will light indicating an IR signal is being received from the transmitter.
- Tone control adjusts the tonal quality of the sound. You will feel a center indent, turn CCW will boost the bass and turning CW will extenuate the high frequencies.
- Aux input jack (3.5mm) facilitates connecting the output of a DVD, Video Projector, ipod, computer and amplifying its signal through the Quantum. The volume can be controlled with the adjacent knob.
- Line output jack (3.5 mm) provides a composite line level output; it can be used to connect to a personal FM assistive listening system or as an output to a recording device. The small knob adjusts the output level to match input of the device connected.
- External speaker output connector is located adjacent to the power plug. An unpowered external speaker can be connected to the Quantum for additional coverage. A companion unpowered Quantum would be the speaker of choice.

The ceiling sensor is the preferred infrared sensor for optimum performance. This is the unit that needs to be installed on the ceiling. It comes with a mounting/support bracket and 50 feet of plenum rated cable with RCA connector on each end. The ideal location for the dome sensor would be in the center of the ceiling. This will provide a clear signal path for the IR transmission from the transmitter to the dome sensor without obstruction. In addition, you will have 360° coverage and will minimize the transmission distance for more reliable performance. It collects the infrared transmission signal via 6 large detecting diodes.
The additional sensor and cable can be added for larger rooms or rooms with poor connectivity. Locate and install the sensors for optimum IR reception, run the cable to the sensor input on top of Quantum II system.
