Adjustment tips for the operating menu

The following adjustment tips refer to the operating menus of both receivers of the EM 550 G2.

Switching between channel banks

Bank

Each receiver of the EM 550 G2 has nine channel banks between which you can switch via the “Bank” menu. The channel banks “1” to “8” have up to 20 switchable channels that are factory-preset to a receiving frequency (see “The channel bank system” on page 40). The channel bank “U” (user bank) has up to 20 switchable channels to store your selection out of 1,440 receiving frequencies that are freely selectable within the preset frequency range.

When switching from one channel bank to another, the channel with the lowest channel number is automatically displayed. If, during the last scan of this channel bank, an interfering frequency was detected on the channel with the lowest channel number, the receiver display panel automatically displays the next free channel (see below).

Switching between the channels in a channel bank

Channel

Via the “Channel” menu, you can switch between the different channels in a channel bank. When switching between the channels, please observe the following:

yAlways set the transmitter and the receiver of a transmission link to the same channel.

yAfter scanning the channel banks (see “Scanning the channel banks for free channels” on page 57), only the free channels can be chosen on the receiver. Set the transmitter and the receiver to one of the free channels.

Selecting the frequencies to be stored in the channel bank “U”

Tune

Via the “Tune” menu, you can select the frequencies to be stored in the channel bank “U” (user bank).

When you have selected one of the channel banks “1” to “8” and then select the “Tune” menu, the receiver automatically switches to channel 01 of the channel bank “U”. In this case, “U.01” briefly appears on the display.

Use the / rocker button to select the desired receiving frequency. Receiving frequencies are tunable in 25-kHz steps within a switching bandwidth of 36 MHz max. For intermodulation-free frequencies, please refer to the enclosed frequency table.
