Lectrosonics R5a - Manual (Page 3)

IFB Receiver
Introduction
Thank you for selecting the Lectrosonics frequency
agile, IFBR5a Receiver. The R5a is the result of exten­
sive engineering experience with the very latest compo­
nents. The design addresses the most demanding
professional applications.
The Lectrosonics R5a Receiver along with the compan­
ion T5 transmitter allow on-air talent to monitor program
audio, and to receive cues from directors and other
production personnel.
SAFETY NOTES
Excessive sound levels can cause permanent hearing
damage.
1. Always adjust the volume to the lowest level before
listening to unknown
transmissions.
2. Use the lowest reasonable level consistent with
hearing safety.
3. Don’t use high sound levels in the earphone to
overcome high ambient sound levels. That is
absolutely foolish! Demand and use high isolation
earphones.
4. Don’t expose your ears to sound levels that cause
them to ring. If your ears do ring after exposure,
think of it as a
warning bell telling you not to do
that again.
The R5a Receiver is housed in a rugged, machined
aluminum package for lasting performance in abusive
environments
Only the IFBR5a Receiver is covered in this manual.
The companion T5 transmitter is covered in a separate
manual. The R5a IFB Receiver will operate with any
Lectrosonics T5 IFB Transmitter in the same frequency
block.
OSHA (Occupational Safety Health Administration)
guidelines on the maximum allowable time exposure to
sound pressure levels that will cause hearing damage
are as follows:
8 hours at 90 dB SPL
4 hours at 95 dB SPL
2 hours at 100 db SPL
1 hour at 105 dB SPL
30 mins at 110 dB SPL
15 mins at 115 dB SPL
NEVER expose your ears to 120 dB SPL or higher!
Damage will occur.
