Handheld Transmitter Setup, PA / sound system

3.2Handheld Transmitter Setup

1.Insert battery. Slide open the hinged battery compartment cover by placing your thumb on the indents of the battery door (at the bottom of the transmitter) and gently pushing down (see Figure 3). Insert the battery, terminal end first, into the compartment, with the smaller positive terminal to the right.

Figure 3.

2.Set handheld transmitter channel to match the channel setting on the receiver (channel number displayed on front of receiver panel). The channel setting on the handheld transmitter is accessed through the round opening on the side of the mic housing. Numbers 0 - 9 are printed around the opening. The channel setting is determined by which number the arrowed slot is pointing to. Use a small screwdriver (supplied) to change the channel setting. See Figure 4.

3.Turn on the transmitter by sliding the power switch (closest to the battery compartment) forward to the ON position (toward the windscreen). The red battery condition light should flash once and then go out. If the red light stays on or illumi- nates during a performance, the battery should be replaced immediately. The green light will stay lit when the handheld transmitter is on.

NOTE: Remember to turn the transmitter OFF when not in use. This will conserve battery life.

4.Verify reception. When the transmitter is turned on, the yellow “Tx On” light, located on the front panel of the receiver, will illuminate, indicating that the receiver is picking up the signal. If this does not happen, make sure that the transmitter and receiver are set to the same channels.

5.Unmute the audio by sliding the audio switch (immediately below the mic element) towards the windscreen. Speak or sing into the microphone and you should hear your voice through the

PA / sound system.

6.Adjustment of the transmitter audio gain - if necessary. The transmitter audio gain is set to a mid level which should be suitable for most situations. However, for loud or soft speakers or singers, an adjustment may be necessary. First, speak or sing into the microphone and listen close- ly. If the gain is too high, you will hear distortion, and if the gain is too low, the signal will be low. In either situation, an adjustment may be necessary.

To adjust the transmitter gain, gently insert the provided screwdriver (or other 3/32-in. screwdriver) into the hole near the head of the transmitter (see Figure 4). Turn lightly until the screwdriver tip drops into the slot in the level control. Gently turn counter- clockwise until the control stops (the mic output is attenuated but not “off”). Slowly turn the mic-level control up while listening to the audio. If the audio becomes distorted, turn the mic level control down (counter-clockwise) about 1/8 turn.

NOTE: Operate with the transmitter audio gain set as high as possible without distortion, for the best signal to noise ratio.

7.Test performance. Check to see that the yellow “Tx On” light on the front panel of the receiver is illuminated, an indication that the receiver is picking up the signal. Then, “walk” the intended area of use and make sure that there are no barriers to reception or sources of interference. If problems are encountered, see Troubleshooting Guide.

N/DYM SERIES specifications

Telex N/DYM SERIES is a line of professional dynamic microphones designed specifically for broadcast, recording, and live sound applications. Renowned for their high-quality audio capture and robust build, these microphones are a staple in the audio engineering world and are favored by artists, sound engineers, and broadcasters alike.

One of the standout features of the Telex N/DYM SERIES is its use of neodymium magnet technology. This allows for a higher output level and improved sensitivity compared to traditional dynamic microphones. Neodymium magnets provide an efficient transduction mechanism, enabling the microphone to capture a wider frequency range with great clarity and detail. The result is a microphone that can accurately reproduce vocals and instruments with remarkable fidelity.

Another key characteristic of the N/DYM SERIES is its cardioid polar pattern. This design helps to minimize ambient noise and feedback by focusing on sound coming from directly in front of the microphone while rejecting sounds from the sides and rear. This makes it particularly useful in live environments where stage noise and audience interference can be problematic, allowing performers to deliver their sound without unwanted distractions.

Durability is also a major focus of the Telex N/DYM SERIES. Built to withstand the rigors of professional use, these microphones feature a rugged construction that can handle the inevitable wear and tear of on-stage performances. The sturdy grill and housing help protect the internal components, ensuring that the microphone maintains its performance and reliability over time.

Furthermore, the N/DYM SERIES microphones often come equipped with advanced internal shock-mount systems. These systems reduce handling noise and vibrations that could otherwise color the sound. This is crucial in both studio and live settings where clarity is of paramount importance.

The versatility of the Telex N/DYM SERIES is another factor that makes it a popular choice among audio professionals. Whether it’s used for vocal performances, acoustic instruments, or amplified sound sources, the microphone adapts well to a variety of applications. The series ensures that users can achieve outstanding results across different scenarios, from studio recordings to live gigs.

In summary, the Telex N/DYM SERIES combines high-quality neodymium technology, a cardioid polar pattern, rugged construction, and innovative design features to create microphones that excel in both live and studio settings. This comprehensive range of characteristics makes the N/DYM SERIES a reliable and effective choice for those seeking exceptional audio quality and durability in their microphone applications.
