Architectural Specs
The transceiver shall be a digital transceiver operating on the 1.9 GHz unlicensed PCS band utilizing Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) techniques allowing interference free full duplex communication. The device shall employ a multiply layer security protocol consisting of a 40-bit (pin free) group subscription, 32-bit authentication and a 64-bit encryption scheme enabling secure conversations. It shall be easy to pair and form groups via Near-field communication (NFC), Docking Station or Software Suite. It shall be simple to operate with a Power, Talk and Volume Up and Down buttons. It shall allow up to 10 simultaneous groups to operate in the same area. It shall be powered via a removable non-proprietary rechargeable lithium-ion battery or via an optional 3 AAA alkaline battery compartment.
The transceiver shall have a 3.5 mm TRRS CTIA compliant headset connection allowing operation with a standard electret style headset. It shall have a built-in-microphone with auto detect circuitry if users elect to use their personal ear buds. It shall have a 64 x 128 OLED display with auto diming allowing display of all current status (group name, volume levels, mute, battery status, time remaining, signal strength, unit ID, mode, etc.) The device shall have a leader clip and when inserted the unit automatically designates itself as a leader and allows the leader/presenter to control pairing/group creation and leader talkback modes (listen only, leader only or group).
The transceiver shall have a signal-to-noise ratio of 70 dB or greater and shall have an audio frequency response of 40 Hz – 15 kHz (±3 dB). The device shall incorporate automatic battery charging circuitry to charge and maintain the lithium-Ion battery either via the micro USB port or via the docking station using the additional charging contacts on the bottom of the device.
The ListenTALK LK-1 is specified.
How many channels are available with ListenTALK?
ListenTALK uses 1.9GHz spread spectrum. It does not use “channels” because it is constantly changing frequencies.
How many participants can be in each ListenTALK tour group?
In a ListenTALK tour group there can be an unlimited number of participants.
How many groups in the same room can ListenTALK support?
ListenTALK’s current specification is that you can have 10 simultaneous groups operating in the same room.
How many simultaneous groups will ListenTALK support?
ListenTALK supports up to 10 simultaneous groups within each service area. North America service area: 100 m indoor, 200 m outdoor, depending on conditions Europe service area: 150 m indoor, 300 m outdoor, depending of conditions
ListenTALK can have up to 10 groups in “one area”. What does “one area” consist of?
One area consists of the typical range, which is 100 m indoors and 200 m outdoors depending on conditions (North America) and 150 m indoors and 300 m outdoors depending on conditions. (Europe version)
Will iOS headsets work with ListenTALK?
Yes, all iOS headsets will function correctly with the ListenTALK Transceiver (LK-1)
Will Android headsets work with ListenTALK?
Android version headsets (roughly 2014 and newer) will function correctly. The older versions have a different microphone/ground configuration making them incompatible with the ListenTALK Transceiver (LK-1).
The distinctive nature of the audio tour guide system is its easy to use, one-way or two-way capability: The transceiver is worn on a lanyard or belt clip, accompanied by a headset with a microphone. Hands are free—no handheld audio microphone or tethered speaker to lug around and hold up for everyone to hear. Tour attendees wear the audio transceiver or belt clip accompanied by an earphone, and speak into the unit’s microphone, with a push of a button, when they have questions or comments. There is an option to only allow tour attendee’s questions to be heard by the presenter rather than the whole group, so the presenter can tailor their message accordingly.
