UHF Wireless Channels (optional accessory)

You can add up to four UHF wireless microphone modules (sold separately) to use with the PA-PRO 900. Each port on the rear panel corresponds to a mic channel on the front panel. Adjustments made to the channel strips on the front panel will adjust the audio from the wireless microphones. Channel 1 on the front panel is tied to Channel 1 on the rear panel, Channel 2 to Channel 2 and so forth. Refer to the information below to setup and use your UHF wireless microphone(s).

Module Description and Functions

1.POWER (LED) - Indicates there is power to the module.

2.RF (LED) - Lights when an RF connection is made.

This LED should light when you turn on the associated microphone. If this LED light when its associated microphone is turned off, that indicates that another external device is connected to that channel (interference).

3.AF (LED) - Lights when AF signals are being transmitted. This LED will light as sounds is picked up and transmitted from the associated microphone (speech or instrument).

4.SQ (Squelch) - The Squelch control is used to mute unwanted noise interference from a microphone channel when the associated transmitter is turned off. To adjust squelch to clockwise to increase squelch, and counter- clockwise to decrease squelch.

NOTE: Typically, as a channel’s squelch setting increases, its operating range decreases. It is therefore recommended to set the squelch control only as high as necessary to mute any noise interference.

5.Level - This knob controls the microphone volume (gain) level for this channel. Turn clockwise to increase volume, and counter-clockwise to decrease.
