Houd bij het kiezen van een montageplaats rekening met het volgende:

• Nabijheid van geluidsbron: For best results, position the microphone close to the intended sound source.
• Omgevingsgeluid: While designed for low ambient noise environments, avoid placing the microphone near sources of constant noise (e.g., air conditioning vents, loud machinery).
• Discretie: The compact size allows for subtle concealment if required.

4.2 De microfoon aansluiten

The AXIS T8351 Mk II Microphone connects to compatible network products via a 3.5 mm microphone input jack or a 4-pin audio connector.

1. Locate the 3.5 mm microphone input jack or 4-pin audio connector on your network product (e.g., IP camera, audio encoder).
2. Insert the microphone's connector firmly into the corresponding port.
3. Ensure a secure connection. The microphone is powered directly by the network product, eliminating the need for additional power cables.

5.1 Audio Capture

The AXIS T8351 Mk II is a hemispherical, omni-directional microphone, meaning it captures sound from all directions. This characteristic makes it effective for monitoring general ambient sound within a room.

• Once connected, the microphone will begin capturing audio as configured by your network product's settings.
• Adjust audio input levels and sensitivity through the interface of your connected network device to achieve optimal sound quality and prevent distortion.

5.2 Integration with Surveillance Systems

The microphone is designed to complement video surveillance by providing synchronized audio. Refer to your network product's documentation for specific instructions on:

• Enabling audio recording.
• Configuring audio triggers or events.
• Live audio monitoring.

6. Onderhoud

6.1 Reinigen

Om optimale prestaties en uiterlijk te behouden:

• Gently wipe the exterior of the microphone with a soft, dry cloth.
• Gebruik geen agressieve chemicaliën, oplosmiddelen of schuurmiddelen.
• Ensure no moisture enters the microphone's openings.

6.2 Milieuoverwegingen

The microphone is designed for indoor use. Protect it from:

• Direct sunlight or extreme heat.
• Overmatig stof of vuil.
• Sterke trillingen of schokken.

7. Probleemoplossing

7.1 Geen audio-uitvoer

• Verbinding controleren: Ensure the 3.5 mm connector is fully inserted into the network product's audio input.
• Verify Network Product Settings: Confirm that audio input is enabled and configured correctly in your network product's software interface. Check volume levels.
• Stroom: Since the microphone is powered by the network product, ensure the network product itself is powered on and functioning correctly.
• Verenigbaarheid: Confirm your network product supports a 3.5 mm microphone input or 4-pin audio connector.

7.2 Poor Audio Quality (Distortion, Low Volume, Noise)

• Microfoonplaatsing: Reposition the microphone closer to the sound source or away from sources of ambient noise.
• Ingangsniveaus: Adjust the audio input sensitivity and gain settings on your network product. Too high a gain can cause distortion; too low can result in faint audio.
• Omgevingslawaai: Identify and mitigate external noise sources in the environment.
• Kabelintegriteit: Controleer de kabel op beschadigingen of knikken.
