MIC CORD (24) as desired. To secure the connection, insert locking mini-XLR into the jack. To unplug, reverse the process.

Slip the transmitter into a pocket or CLIP (28) it on to your clothes or instrument strap (if using it as an instrument transmitter). The CLIP can be rotated 90 degree if the transmitter is to be attached horizontally (instead of vertically) by loosening the screws holding the clip.

3.Turn on the body pack transmitter by sliding the OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (26) to the STANBY position (transmitter on, audio mute or the ON position (transmitter and audio both on). The BATTERY INDICATOR LED (25) will give a single quick flash, indicating usable battery strength.

In the case of a dead or low battery, the LED either will not illuminate at all or will stay on continuously, indicating that the battery should be replaced. To preserve battery life, turn the transmitter off when not in use. The transmitter is now ready to use. The A and/or B DIVERSITY LED INDICATORS (2) on the receiver should now be lit, indicating a received signal from the transmitter.

4.Instrument Use

Plug the ¼” phone plug from the INSTRUMENT CORD (22) into the instrument. As the cord to the instrument also serves as the antenna, be sure to extend if fully for maximum range. Rolling up or shortening the cord may reduce the effective operating range. When ready to play, slide the audio OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (26) to the ON position. Adjust the volume of the receiver as per the audio Output Instrument Connections section of the above UHF receiver instructions.

(Note: Levels should be adjusted with the volume control of your instrument.)

The AF PEAK LED INDICTOR (3) on the UHF receiver will light for all loud input signals. Occasional flickering on and off during use is normal, however if the LED stays on continuously, turn down the instrument volume or noticeable distortion may result.

(Note: Scratchy noises can sometimes occur when some electric guitars with dirty pots or connections are used with any wireless system. Therefore, the supplied INSTRUMENT CORD (22) has a factory installed capacitor inside the ¼” plug. This capacitor provides first order filtering of the RF signal from the cord into the guitar and eliminates virtually all scratchy noises. Should your equipment still give you scratchy noises, we suggest these steps to eliminate them:

a)Make sure all guitar volume and tone pots are clean and all contacts are soldered, this is very important.

b)A 47pf capacitor soldered across the hot to ground terminals of the guitar’s volume and tone pots will provide extra filtering.

5.Microphone Use (with either a lavalier or headset microphone)

Secure the connection from the LAVALIER (24) or HEADSET MIC CORD (23), to secure the connection, insert locking mini-XLR into the jack. To unplug, reverse the process.
