Safety Cautions!
CAT-5e Cable Safety:
Do NOT Plug the LT-84 (ListenIR Transmitter/Radiator Combo) CAT-5e cable into anything other than an
LA-141 (ListenIR Expansion Radiator). The LT-84 CAT-5e Expansion Output RJ-45 connection is proprietary
and is not compatible with Ethernet or any other system. Failure to comply with this caution can damage the
LT-84, LA-141 or other equipment and will void the warranty.
Hearing Safety:
The LT-84 is designed to be used with Listen Technologies receivers. These receivers are designed to amplify audio
to a high volume level which could potentially cause hearing damage if used improperly. To protect your hearing,
make sure the volume is turned down before putting on the ear speaker or headphones, then adjust the volume
up to the minimum setting require to hear clearly. Do not allow children or other unauthorized individuals to have
access to this product without supervision.
Medical Device Safety:
Before using Listen Technologies receivers with an implantable or other medical device, consult your implantable
or other medical device physician or manufacturer. Always make sure you are using this product in accordance
with the safety guidelines established by your physician or the implantable device manufacturer.

System Overview
The LT-84 is an all-in-one two channel infrared (IR) transmitter and radiator (Transmitter/Radiator Combo) packed
into a single mountable enclosure. The LT-84 IR radiator is located behind the IR transparent front panel and
provides line-of-sight coverage of 30,000 ft2(2787 m2) with LR-4200-IR/LR-5200-IR receivers or 7,500 ft2(697 m2)
with LR-42/LR-44 receivers. .
The LT-84 is perfect for high-quality audio applications like assistive listening, audio description or language
inputs accept microphone, consumer and line level inputs which are all mixed to the modulated IR transmission.
IR receivers then detect the modulated IR transmission and convert the IR signals back into an audio signal and
presents it to headphones.
For better line of sight coverage or for coverage in larger areas the LT-84 can be combined with up to four (4)
LA-141 Listen IR Expansion Radiators. The LA-141s are connected in a daisy chain fashion to the LT-84 via a 24
AWG unschielded CAT-5e cable. A maximum of two (2) LA-141s can be connected to each expansion link output
on the LT-84 with a maximum cable length of 100 ft. (30 m).

LT-84 and LA-141 Coverage
The units emit a beam of infrared light from the front panel. Infrared light is not visible to the human eye. Below
is a scaled diagram of the typical line-of-sight IR pattern or “footprint” emitted from the units. When using a unit in
single channel transmit mode the coverage area is 30,000 ft2(2787 m2) and in 2 channel transmit mode the coverage
area is 15,000 ft2(1394 m2). Use the diagrams below when evaluating a given space to determine the number of units
required and placement of those units for best line-of-sight coverage with an LLR-4200-IR or LR-5200-IR receiver.

Designing a System
Use the following steps when designing an IR system:
1. Determine the number of audio channels that will be used (1 or 2).
2. Determine the room size and shape.
3. Use the room size and shape information along with the appropriate 1 or 2 channel coverage
pattern footprint to overlay the footprint on the room dimensions and determine the number of
units required and the placement of those units to cover the desired listening audience.
Best performance is achieved:
• When radiators face and have direct line-of-sight to audience.
• When a system provides over-lapping coverage (like a sprinkling system).
• When special coverage is provided for shaded areas like under a balcony.
• When mounted above and angled down into the listening audience
9 – 16 ft. (2.8 - 4.9 m) high and at an angle between 10 and 30 degrees.
