iDSP™ Receivers
The LR-4200 is a powerful Assistive Listening Receiver designed to be compact and simple to use. The unique design of the iDSP™ receiver family allows them to be worn as a necklace, using the belt clip, or concealed in a pocket, making this the most inconspicuous ALS receiver on the market.
Each receiver can be purchased with an Ear Phone/Neck Loop Lanyard that is designed to hold the receiver like a necklace similar to the Blue Tooth™ transceivers used with many of today’s hearing aids. The Ear Phone/Neck Loop Lanyard can be used as the induction loop for those users who have T-coil- enabled hearing aids or cochlear implants, inducing the received audio directly into these T-coil-enabled devices. The Ear Phone/Neck Loop Lanyard also provides the connection to Listen’s Universal Ear Speaker, Earphones, and Headphones, incorporating a short connection cable that plugs directly into the Ear Phone/ Neck Loop Lanyard 3.5mm headset jack located 2/3 of the way up the lanyard. A second 3.5mm extension cable provided with Listen’s universal earphones provides the length of cable required to place the receiver in a pocket or use the belt clip.

Channel Select Mode
72 MHz receivers operate on 17 wideband channels and 40 narrow band channels. Channels represented by letters on the display (i.e. A) are wideband channels; channels represented by numbers are narrowband channels. Listen recommends the use of wide-band channels for a much higher quality listening experience. 216 MHz receivers operate on 19 wideband channels and 38 narrow band channels. Channel numbers starting with a “2” are a wide band; channels beginning with a “1” or “3” are narrowband channels. The Listen receiver is pre-programmed to operate on channel E (72 MHz) or channel 2C (216 MHz) from the factory. To receive audio, both the transmitter and receiver(s) need to be set to the same channel. If not, the receiver channel needs to be reprogrammed to the channel being broadcast. To adjust the receiver to a different listening channel, press and hold the volume up and down buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds. The current channel will begin to flash on the display. Use the volume up or down button to scroll through the available channels. Once the desired channel is located momentarily press the power button to save and exit the channel select mode or if no button is pressed for 5 seconds then the selected channel will be saved and the unit will exit the channel select mode. See pages 17-18 for complete channel selection information. -

Advanced Program Features and Listen’s iDSP Software Suite
To manage the advanced program features on any of the iDSP™ receivers a windows based user interface (UI) software is required. This software is available free of charge from Listen Technologies. To download the software log onto http://www.listentech.com/support/software/idsp-software-suite/ and follow the instructions. With the UI software, direct communication is provided via the Micro USB connection on the receiver. Once connected the UI software provides setup and adjustment of the following functions of the LR-4200 receiver.
Note: A help file for the UI software is included with the download and will provide detailed instructions for setup and management of all the advanced program features of the LR-4200 receiver.
Super Quiet Mode
To reduce background noise and increase the audio quality, Listen offers a noise reduction technology called Listen SQ™. Only Listen *transmitters and receivers have SQ™ available, both the transmitter and receiver must have SQ™ activated to achieve the improved sound quality performance. This LR-4200 receiver has been shipped to you with the SQ™ feature enabled.
SQ™ Summary:
- Improves noise performance by at least 20 dB
- SQ must be enabled for both the transmitter and receivers
- SQ™ is NOT Squelch
- SQ™ is NOT compatible with other manufacturers’ products
- SQ™ can be disabled to permit operation with early Listen to products or other manufacturers, products
Note: SQ™ is not available on some of the early Listen transmitters. Please contact Listen’s Technical Support team to find out if your existing transmitter has this feature available.
Note: If you are planning to use this product with older Listen to systems that do not employ SQ™ or another manufactures transmitter The SQ™ mode should be disabled on this receiver. Refer to the manual supplied with the downloaded Listen UI software for details on how to manage the SQ™ Mode on this receiver.
Squelch
The purpose of squelch is to mute the audio output of the receiver when the signal from the transmitter is turned off or the level is too weak to be received. Without a squelch, radio noise will be heard in the earphone. The squelch on the receiver can be adjusted to mute the audio at different RF signal strengths. There are 20 squelch settings. The lowest squelch setting (no squelch) is “0” and the tightest squelch setting is “20”. Your Listen receiver has been shipped to you with the squelch setting of 3.
Useful as follows:
- To ensure that users don’t hear transmissions from other transmitters, set the squelch setting to the highest level that doesn’t squelch the receiver in the defined listening area
- If the receiver is too close to the transmitter (i.e. in a classroom), set the squelch high enough so that when the transmitter is turned off it immediately squelches the audio on the receiver, and transmitters in other rooms will not be heard
- In an area that has a lot of broadcast inference, adjust the squelch setting to a higher setting to ensure the interference is not picked by the receiver
- For the maximum amount of range, consider setting the squelch setting to a low level (0, 1, or 2). This expands the range but could allow interference from other transmitters when operating far distances from the primary transmitter
Basic Channels and Expanded Channels Modes
Your Listen receiver has been shipped with the Basic Channel Mode enabled.
In the default Basic Channel Mode, only the wide-band channels are available for selection. If the channel desired is not available in Basic Channel Mode, the receiver will need to be set to the Expanded Channel Mode. In Expanded Channel Mode all wide band and narrow bands are available for selection.
-
Channel Labels
The channel labels are displayed on the OLED status screen. The default is the channel number the receiver has been programmed to receive, i.e. “CH-E”. Customization of this display can be created to better identify the type of audio, for example, CH-E could be changed to display “Spanish” if the receiver is used for language translation. -
Auto Power Mode
The auto power mode will automatically power the receiver on when the unit is removed from the charging device, displaying the unit ID, battery status, and the active channel. When the unit is returned to the charging device the unit will automatically turn off and resume charging operation. Your Listen receiver has been shipped to you with Auto Power Mode enabled. -
Unit ID
The unit ID number provides a unique identification for each receiver that is displayed on the OLED status screen. This can be any 3-digit number between 000 and 999. The unit ID allows venues to track individual units and for easy dispensing and inventory control. Your Listen receiver has been shipped to you with a Unit ID of 000. -
Brightness Control
The Brightness Control adjusts the level of brightness of the OLED display. There are four settings Auto, Bright, Dim, and Disabled. In the Auto mode, the unit uses an internal light sensor and automatically dims the display when the light level is below approximately 10 Lux. In the Bright, Dim, or Disabled mode, the unit disables the light sensor and leaves the OLED in the selected Bright or Dim state. In the disabled mode, the unit disables the display from lighting during normal operation except for the power on sequence or when the power button is momentarily pressed to check the status. The receiver is shipped with the Auto Brightness Control Mode enabled. -
Jack Sense
The jack sense mode when enabled will automatically turn the receiver on when a headset is inserted into the 3.5 mm output jack on the receiver. The receiver will automatically turn off after 60 seconds when the headset is removed from the 3.5 mm output jack. Your listen receiver has been shipped to you with the Jack Sense Mode disabled.
Note: If Jack Sense is on and Auto Power is on, the receiver will ignore jack sense while on the charger. -
Unit Information
When a unit is connected to the configuration software the software extracts specific information from the unit and displays it for the user. This information includes the model number, frequency, Serial Number and Firmware Version. -
Reset to Factory Defaults
The unit can be returned to the factory default settings. -
Firmware Update
The firmware update function will check via the internet to see if a firmware update is available for the receiver.
RF Reception Maximization Strategies
For proper and reliable operation, Listen receivers should receive a strong and consistent signal from the originating transmitter. Follow these strategies should be used to maximize this signal:
- When designing and installing a system, keep in mind that the location of both the transmitter and receivers is critical to maximizing signal strength
- Eliminate or minimize obstructions between the transmitter and receivers
- Minimize the distance between the transmitter and receivers
- Move transmitter and receivers away from metal objects
- Place the transmitting antenna as high as possible (on stationary transmitters)
- Orient both transmitting and receiving antennas vertically
- On portable transmitters and receivers, the cable from the microphone or headset is the antenna; ensure that the cable is not coiled or laying horizontal
- For 216 MHz stationary LT-800 transmitter only, consider using a gain antenna such as a Yagi type antenna or the LA-107 ground plane antenna.”
NOTE: If the RF signal to the 216 MHz models is too high, the audio will be distorted. This may happen if you are within 40 feet (12m) of the LT-800-216 transmitter or within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the LT-700-216 transmitter.
CAUTION: When installing remote antennas, ensure the antenna is clear of power lines. Coaxial cable, connectors, and optional antenna mounting kits are available from Listen. Visit www.listentech.com or ask your dealer for details.

Troubleshooting LR-4200 Receivers
-
The receiver has no power
Make sure the unit has either a fully charged battery or a Listen-approved wall charging transformer connected. Make sure the Power button on the top of the unit has been pressed to turn the unit ON. If this does not work, make sure the battery is installed properly and/or install a replacement battery. -
There is no audio
Make sure the volume control is turned up to at least 25%. Check the Intelligent Earphone/Neck Loop Lanyard to insure it’s plugged all of the way. Make sure the Ear Phone is plugged into the Earphone/Neck Loop Lanyard. Check to ensure the transmitter is broadcasting an audio source. Verify the receiver is tuned to the same channel as the transmitter. If the RF signal is too weak, the receiver will squelch and mute the audio source; move closer to the antenna or make sure the transmitter’s output RF power switch is set on “FULL” (LT-800). -
The audio is distorted
Check the receiver is on the correct channel and make sure you’re using the clearest channel possible. Verify the audio on the transmitter is not turned up too loud; this will cause distortion. Ensure the Intelligent Ear Phone/Neck Loop Lanyard connectors are pushed all the way into the jacks on top of the unit. Check the Ear Phone to verify it is plugged all the way into the Ear Phone/Neck Loop Lanyard. Review the SQ™ settings on your transmitter and receivers to verify both are turned ON (or OFF, if some of your equipment is not SQ™ capable). Make sure the receiver is not too close to the transmitting antenna. If the receiver can’t get farther away from the antenna, turn down the RF output power on the stationary (LT-800) transmitter. -
I cannot pick up the signal on the receiver
Check to make sure the receiver and the transmitter are on the same exact channel frequency. Verify the receiver is in broadcast range of the transmitter. Move the receiver closer to the transmitter. -
Im using another brand of transmitter – how do I tell which channel to use?
Check the transmitter and receiver and verify they are both on exactly the same channel number/letter. Make sure you are using a clear channel that is free from noise and interference. -
There is not a sufficient range
Inspect the transmitting antenna to verify it is located as close as possible to the receiving area. Place the antenna as high as possible and check to see it is free from obstacles. Check the squelch setting on the unit; perhaps it is too sensitive. -
When I change channels, only certain channels are accessible
The unit has been programmed to the basic mode which only shows the wide-band channels. The unit can be programmed for expanded mode which will show all 57 channels. This is programmed via the configuration software. -
My battery is not charging
Verify the clear plastic pull tab has been removed from the receiver battery door engaging the battery connections. Make sure the battery is installed properly and that the unit is plugged into the charging device correctly. Check the charging device to verify it is plugged into the proper power outlet and power is available at the outlet. If this does not work, install a replacement battery. -
I want to run the unit from a wall transformer
Simply plug a Listen-approved charging transformer (LA-421) into the Micro USB connector on the side of the unit. A battery must be installed at all times even when operating the unit with a wall charging transformer.
