14Basic functions of the Sennheiser operating menu

A special feature of the Sennheiser 3000 series is the similar operation of transmitters and receivers. In stressfull situations, for example on stage or during a live show or presentation, it is important that the transmitter is easy to operate and that adjustments to the transmitter settings can be made quickly and “without looking”. Therefore, the necessary operating steps for each device must be similar.

￿Press the SET button to get into the setting mode.

By briefly pressing the SET button, the display begins to flash and you enter the top menu level. By briefly pressing SET again, the display switches to the next menu and so on.

Press the / buttons to adjust the settings of the selected menu.

Settings which are “relevant to the transmission reliability” or have an impact on the complete radiomicrophone system have to be stored before they become effective. To store a setting, press the SET button for more than a second. “Sto” briefly appears on the display, indicating that your setting has been stored. The display then switches back to the standard display.

If you do not press the / buttons or the SET button for more than 14 seconds, the setting mode is automatically left and the microprocessor switches back to the standard display.

buttons you can now select a different sensitivity. If you

do not press the / buttons or the SET button for more than 14 seconds, the setting mode is automatically left and the microprocessor switches back to the standard display.

Note:

In order that you can instantly test the new sensitivity, the setting becomes effective immediately without having to be stored.

Tip:

Try out each sensitivity several times. For soundchecks please bear in mind that the volume may appear to be higher during rehearsal in an empty room than later during the show. Experience also shows that the user will normally speak louder in front of the audience.
