CHAPTER 2: GETTING STARTED

CHAT 150 CONTROLS

LED Indicators

The three microphone LED indicators illuminate blue when the CHAT 150 microphones are active (unmuted). The

indicators illuminate red when the CHAT 150 microphone mute function is active. The seven volume LED indicators

illuminate blue to indicate the current volume setting—more lights indicate higher volume.

Volume and Mute Buttons

Use the Volume Up/Down buttons to adjust the volume level of the CHAT 150. Use the Mute button to mute the

CHAT 150’s microphones until the button is pressed again.

If you are using the CHAT 150 with a PC, you can also use the volume controls in Windows or in the CHAT software

application to make these adjustments.

> NOTE: If your CHAT 150 is connected to a PC, any changes you make to volume by pressing the CHAT

150’s buttons are reflected in the Speaker Volume Control in Windows and in the CHAT software.

Headset Button

Press the Headset button on the Phone Breakout Box to send audio from your phone to your headset connected to the

CHAT 150 Breakout Box. This will also disable audio going from the Breakout Box to the CHAT 150 — it is routed strictly

to the headset. The phone breakout box LED indicator illuminates indicating that the headset audio is activated and the

CHAT 150 LED indicators will remain lit. The audio is no longer routed to the CHAT 150 from the Breakout Box (USB

audio is still active). Press the Headset button again to disable the headset audio and reactivate the audio from the

INSTALLING THE CHAT SOFTWARE FOR WINDOWS

> NOTE: The install procedure is the same for all versions of Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7

operating systems.

The CHAT 150 can be used right out of the box and there’s no software to download or install if it is to be used only with

a PC.

The following procedure can be used to download and install the CHAT software for the CHAT 150 if it is to be used with

other devices or if the CHAT 150 firmware requires updates.

1. Download the CHAT software by accessing the following:

http://www.clearone.com/resources#uc_voice

2. Select your device from the “BY PRODUCT” window and click SEARCH and the screen will display only those

downloads available for your specific device. Select the latest version of the CHAT 50/150 Software and the system

will display a confirmation window for the software to be downloaded to your computer.

3. Unzip the downloaded folder and run Setup.exe to begin the installation process.

4. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the software installation.

When the CHAT software installation is complete, start the CHAT software by double-clicking the ClearOne CHAT icon

that is now on your Windows desktop, or by clicking:

2. Using the included 6’ RCA cable, connect the CHAT 150 VC Breakout Box to both your video conferencing device

and/or TV/monitor, as shown in the following illustration. The cable has two RCA connectors on one end, and five on

the other end, split into two groups with two and three connectors.

The end with two connectors goes to the VC Breakout Box. The blue connector connects to the Audio In port

(identified by the icon), and the black connector goes to the Audio Out port (identified by the icon).

On the other end of the cable, the group with the Red (Right) and White (Left or Mono) connector plugs into the

corresponding audio ports on your TV. This connection allows you to either use the speaker on your CHAT 150 for audio

from the far end, or alternatively you can use the speakers on the TV. See Advanced Settings: Audio Settings in

Chapter 4: Using The CHAT Application for details on using this option.

The group with three connectors goes to your video conferencing device. The Red (Right) and White (Left or Mono)

connectors go to the corresponding Audio Out ports. However, if your video conferencing device does not have left and

right audio out, but only has a single channel (mono), connect the white connector to send a mono audio signal to the

CHAT 150. The black connector is inserted into the Audio In port.

3. Slide the correct power supply clip for your country into the included power supply. The power supply may contain a

plastic shield that must be removed before inserting the clip.

CHATAttach: Connecting Two CHAT Devices

The CHATAttach makes it possible to connect two CHAT devices together for larger conference settings using the

CHATAttach accessory kit.

In order to use the CHATAttach accessory, the following criteria must be met:

1. Both CHAT devices must be the same model number - both CHAT 150, both CHAT 160 or both CHAT 170 devices -

mixing CHAT models using CHATAttach is not currently possible.

2. Both CHAT devices must have identical firmware versions installed. The firmware must be CHATAttach compatible.

To ensure this, download the latest version of the firmware from the Website and configure each device that will

be connected to the CHATAttach accessory with the latest firmware. All older CHAT 150 devices require firmware

updates in order to work with the CHATAttach accessory.

3. The CHAT device must be at least 5’ apart for best performance.

Use the following steps to connect the CHATAttach accessory.

1. Connect the two CHAT devices using the keyed CHATAttach cable.

2. Position the two CHAT 150 devices so they’re at least 5’ apart from each other.

3. Plug in the CHATAttach power supply.

To prevent the power cable from inadvertantly becoming unplugged before, during or after meetings, it

is recommended that the connector end of the cable be secured in some way. One approach is to knot

the male-female connection to prevent this from occurring as shown above.

A recommended professional approach to setting up a conference room utilizing the CHATAttach

accessory is to drill holes near where the CHAT devices will be placed, route the cabling through the

holes and secure them underneath the conference table as shown above.

4. Follow the instructions in the CHAT 150 User’s Manual to setup the CHAT device with a PC.

CHAPTER 3: CONFIGURING THE CHAT 150

CONFIGURING YOUR CHAT 150

This section describes how you configure your CHAT 150 for the specific devices you are connecting to. The CHAT

software contains a database of pre-configured device settings that allows you to instantly select and apply optimal

settings for supported devices.

> NOTE: From time to time, ClearOne adds additional devices to the database. To update your CHAT

software to include all currently supported devices, see the Update Firmware & Database section

later in this chapter.

If the specific device you are using with the CHAT 150 is not listed in the database, you can create a custom device by

following the instructions described later in this chapter.

DEVICE SETUP

To configure the CHAT 150 for your devices, perform the following steps:

1. Using the included USB cable, connect the CHAT 150 to your PC or laptop. The blue LED indicators on the CHAT

150 illuminate, indicating that the CHAT 150 is powered and ready for use.

2. Start the CHAT software by double-clicking the ClearOne CHAT icon on your desktop, or by launching the

application from your PC’s Start menu.

The main screen of the CHAT software will be displayed.

Chapter 3: Configuring the CHAT 150 15

3. Click Device Setup from the buttons on the left. The Device Setup screen appears displaying the general types of

devices you can configure for use with the CHAT 150.

4. From the Select 1st column, select the type of device you are connecting to the CHAT 150.

5. In the Select 2nd column, select the manufacturer of your device. If you are selecting PC and Laptop, select All. If

you are connecting to a VC Breakout Box and your manufacturer is not listed, select Other.

6. Select the model of the device from the list in the Select 3rd column. If you selected PC and Laptop, select All. If

you selected VC Breakout Box and the specific model number is not listed, select Other.

7. Once all three selections have been made, the Add to My Devices and Apply to CHAT buttons at the bottom of

the screen will become active.

8. When you are satisfied with your selections in all three columns, click the Apply to CHAT button to apply these

settings to the CHAT 150. A message will appear indicating that the settings were successfully applied to your CHAT

150.

9. Click the Add to My Devices button and an entry containing these settings will be created in the My Devices

screen allowing you to instantly select and apply this configuration in the future. A message will appear indicating

that the device was successfully added.

10. Repeat steps 1 through 8 for any additional devices you will be using with your CHAT 150.

To ensure optimal sound quality, you need to customize the CHAT 150’s audio settings for every

application and device you will use. Refer to the tuning procedures provided in the Optimizing Sound

Quality section that follows.

16 Technical Support: 800.283.5936

MY DEVICES

My Devices displays all of the devices that you have configured for use with your CHAT 150. This screen allows you to

easily switch between settings for your listed devices, including any saved custom configurations, if you have created

custom audio settings for your device (see Advanced Settings: Database later in this chapter for more information on

saving custom settings).

Select the device you wish to use with your CHAT 150, and click the Apply to CHAT button to apply the audio settings

to your CHAT 150.

To remove a device from your list of My Devices, select the device from the list and click the Remove from My

Devices button. Note that this only removes the device from the My Devices list. It does not remove it from the device

database (see the Advanced: Database section later in this chapter for more information.)

OPTIMIZING SOUND QUALITY

For optimal sound quality, you must adjust the CHAT 150’s audio settings for each device and application you will be

using as described in the procedures below.

> NOTE: The volume settings in the CHAT software are synchronized with the Windows volume settings.

Changing the volume using the CHAT software or the buttons on the CHAT 150 also changes the

volume settings in Windows. Conversely, changing the volume settings in Windows will change the

settings in the CHAT software.

Using with Pre-Defined Device Settings

The pre-defined device settings available in the CHAT application will provide good sound quality for many of the most

popular devices used with the CHAT 150. If you used the procedure in the previous section to configure the CHAT 150’s

settings for one of these devices, test the sound quality before performing any additional tuning. If you are satisfied with

the sound quality, no further adjustments are necessary.

Applying Audio Settings to the CHAT 150

Select the device you wish to use with the CHAT 150, then click the Apply to CHAT button to apply the custom audio

settings.

Chapter 4: Using the Chat Application 17

CHAPTER 4: USING THE CHAT APPLICATION

USING THE CHAT APPLICATION

1. If not already open, start the CHAT application.

2. Click the My Devices button and select the device you want to tune (select the Other or All option if your device/

application is not listed), then click the Apply to CHAT button.

3. For external hardware devices, connect the device to the CHAT 150 using the appropriate connection diagrams

located in Chapter 2: Getting Started.

4. Adjust the speaker and volume settings on the external device or in the application to 50% (half volume).

5. Click the Advanced button to display the pre-defined audio settings for the device you selected in step 2. Use

the USB Audio section of the screen to tune applications; use the Line Audio section to tune external hardware

devices connected to the CHAT 150 breakout box.

> NOTE: In the Advanced screen, adjusting Microphone Level under USB Audio changes the CHAT

150 microphone volume for USB applications, while adjusting the Output Level under Line Audio

changes the microphone volume being sent to the device connected to the CHAT 150’s line audio jack.

Likewise, adjusting Speaker Level under USB Audio changes the CHAT 150 speaker volume, while

adjusting the Input Level under Line Audio changes the speaker volume being received from the

connected device.

6. Place a call using the device or application. Land lines provide the best audio for tuning purposes.

7. Ask the person on the other end of the call to count from 1 to 10 in a normal voice. While the person is counting,

click and move the Input slider in the CHAT application until the caller’s voice can be clearly heard. Repeat as

needed to find the optimal speaker volume for the device.

8. While the caller is still connected, count from 1 to 10 in a normal voice. Ask the caller if they can hear you clearly.

Click and move the Output slider until the caller can hear you clearly. Repeat the test count as needed to find the

optimal microphone volume for the device.

9. Click Save to Database to capture the optimized settings. The Add Settings to Database dialog appears. Enter
