Louroe Electronics IF-1 User manual

DESCRIPTION
The IF-1 audio interface adapter serves as an interconnection device between a Louroe microphone
(Verifact™ A, B, C, D, D-V, E, K, L-DT and M) and a:
!DVR, VCR,
!IP network camera
!Video Server
!PC Soundcard
!or other audio receiving devices that accept line level audio (0dB@600W)
The IF-1 contains a terminal block to receive wiring from the microphone. In addition, it supplies 12 Vdc power and drives
the microphone signals into the “Audio Input” of the DVR/IP Network Camera or “Line In” of the computer sound card. The
output side of IF-1 contains two different types of “Audio Out” Jacks (RCA, 3.5mm Stereo) to accommodate connection to
most audio devices accepting line level input. ONLY ONE OF THE OUTPUTS CAN BE USED.
The following accessories are included with the IF-1:
!RCA, RCA cable for connection to a DVR, etc.
!3.5mm stereo cable for connection to a PC sound card or IP Camera with
3.5mm stereo audio input.
!RCA to 3.5mm mono Adapter for an IP Network Camera, Video Server, etc.
that has a 3.5mm mono audio input jack
!12Vdc AC Adapter

CONNECTIONS
MICROPHONE TO INPUT SIDE OF IF-1
Wiring: 2 conductor Shielded 22 gauge with 24 gauge drain wire
West Penn 452 or equivalent
All Louroe microphones contain a terminal block or terminal strip
marked A, B, C.
A = 12 Vdc power (+)
B = Audio
C = Ground (-)
If using recommended wiring:
Connect red wire to terminal A of microphone
Connect black wire to terminal B of microphone
Connect bare wire to terminal C of microphone
OUTPUT SIDE OF IF-1 TO AUDIO RECEIVER (DVR, IP Network Camera, etc.)
(A) If audio receiver is a DVR or VCR that has RCA input, use the single RCA cable to connect RCA output
of IF-1 to “Audio In” of DVR/VCR.
(B) If the audio receiver (DVR, Soundcard, etc.) has a 3.5mm stereo input, use the 3.5mm stereo cable
and connect to the 3.5mm stereo jack of the IF-1 before connecting to the “Audio In” or “Line In” of the
DVR or soundcard. NOTE: DO NOT connect to “Mic In” of soundcard.
© If audio receiver (IP Network camera, DVR, Video Server, etc.) has a 3.5mm mono input, connect the
RCA to 3.5mm mono cable to the RCA audio out of IF-1 to the “Audio In” or “Line In” of IP Network
camera, etc.
APPLYING POWER TO IF-1
A 12 Vdc AC Adapter is included with the IF-1. First connect small plug into 12 Vdc power jack on input side of IF-1.
Connect other end (power block) to standard 110V/120 Vac electronic outlet or power strip.
“AUDIO OUT” CONTROL OF POTENTIOMETER
Located on the IF-1 input side (next to 3-pin microphone terminal block) is a potentiometer for audio gain
adjustment. Occasionally, though rare, the microphone may overdrive (or underdrive) the audio signal into the IF-1.
Should this occur, use a small screw driver and move arrow clockwise to increase gain. Move counterclockwise to
lower gain. The potentiometer is positioned straight up at the factory.
