1.2.4 Microphone
ВTOP-PAD-IP2 uses a removable high-sensitivity G14-2 condenser microphone on a
flexible gooseneck (see Figure 8). The microphone has a red LED that indicates the type of
incoming or outgoing communication by a constant glow or blinking. The microphone has
a unilateral direction that minimizes the effect of third-party interference, and a wide range
of perceived frequencies from 100 Hz to 10 kHz.
The microphone is installed and removed through a three-pin screw socket.
Optionally a shortened version of G14-3 microphone of 41 mm high can be supplied
without LED indication (see Figure 9). Both microphones are equipped with wind shield that
makes the sound clearer (keep out noise, whistles and other similar distortions).
Figure 8 – – External appearance and overall dimensions of microphone G14-2
Figure 9 – – External appearance and overall dimensions of microphone G14-3
LED indication has solid light on the G14-2 microphone when the Desktop call station
is initialized, as well as during the press of the Direct call key to transfer voice information
from the microphone and to transmit the audio segment, and when using a duplex
connection. With an incoming simplex call, with manual duplex control or one-way
conversation control, and during the transfer of an incoming call to the built-in speaker, the
LED indication blinks with a period of about 0.6 seconds.
1.2.5 Built-in speakers
ВTOP-PAD-IP2 uses a wideband speaker manufactured by PUI Audio PUI Audio (see
Figure 10) a rated power of 3 watts, with a moisture resistant paper diaphragm, with a
nominal resistance of 8 ohms and a frequency response from 100 to 20,000 Hz with an
average sound pressure level of 86 dB. The dimensions of the speaker are 25 × 41 × 71 mm.
