Adjusting the squelch | Sennheiser EK 3041-U manual

18 Adjusting the squelch

Your EK 3041-U receiver is equipped with an adjustable squelch control which eliminates annoying noise when the transmitters are switched on and off. It also suppresses sudden noise when a transmitter leaves the reception area and there is no longer sufficient transmitter power received by the receiver.

Briefly press the SET button twice.

The display now indicates „Squelch“ in alternation with one of nine

possible squelch values (adjustable in 5-dB steps from „OFF“ to „40“). These values are – to some extent – comparable to an input voltage in dB ∝ V.

With the / buttons you can now select a different setting. Selecting a smaller value reduces the squelch threshold, selecting a higher value increases the squelch threshold.

The new setting becomes effective immediately without having to be stored.

Notes

You can discontinue the programming of this menu at any time. Press the SET button to change to the next menu or briefly press the ON/OFF switch to discontinue your entry. The cancellation is briefly confirmed on

the display with „ESC“. The display then switches back to the standard display (display of receiving frequency or channel number)( see chapter 16).

After about 15 seconds, the receiver automatically returns to normal operation if no entry has been made during this period. Here, too, „ESC“ flashes briefly.
