Can I use this adapter with any USB microphone?
No, the AirBridge is specifically designed to work wirelessly with the Philips SpeechMike Premium Air Wireless Dictation Microphone SMP4000 and SpeechOne Wireless Headset PSM6000, not as a general USB audio adapter for other microphones.
Troubleshooting
Adapter not connecting
Ensure the adapter is properly plugged into the USB port. Verify that your SpeechMike or SpeechOne headset is powered on and within range. Try re-pairing the devices by unplugging and replugging the adapter. Check that you are using a compatible Philips wireless device.
Intermittent audio drops or poor connection
Move closer to the computer (within the 5-meter range). Minimize potential sources of interference, such as other wireless devices or thick walls. Ensure the adapter and your connected device's firmware are up to date, if applicable.
No audio recorded
Confirm that the AirBridge adapter is recognized as the active audio input device in your computer's sound settings and in your dictation software. Check that the microphone on your SpeechMike or headset is not muted and that recording has been initiated.
Warning signal indicates out of range
Move closer to your computer. The 5-meter range is the maximum operational distance; performance may vary at the edge of this range.
