WHT-15 HANDHELD MICROPHONE TRANSMITTER

1.Unscrew the BATTERY COMPARTMENT COVER (17) and remove, exposing the BATTERY HOLDER (18). Insert a fresh 9V ALKALINE BATTERY (19), observing the correct polarity as marked, and screw the cover back on to the microphone. Make sure the cover is screwed on completely. A fresh alkaline battery can last up to 16 hours in use, but in order to ensure optimum performance, it is recommended that you replace the battery after every 10 hours of use.

2.Turn on the WHT-15 by sliding the OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (20) to the STANDBY position (transmitter on, audio muted) or the ON position (transmitter and audio both on). The BATTERY INDICATOR LED (21) will give a single quick flash, indicating usable battery strength. In the case of a dead or low battery, the LED will either not go on at all or will stay on continuously, indicating that the battery should be replaced with a fresh one. To preserve battery life, turn the transmitter off when not in use.

3.The microphone is now ready to use. Most or all of the RF LEVEL DISPLAY

LEDs (4) on the Encore I receiver should now be lit, indicating a received signal from the transmitter. When ready to speak, slide the transmitter switch to the ON position. Adjust the volume of the receiver as per the Audio Output Microphone Connection section of the above Encore I receiver instructions. The AF LEVEL

LED DISPLAY (5) on the Encore I receiver will light up to 5 LEDs (4 green and 1 red) for all input signals. Occasional flickering on and off during use of the top red LED indicator in this display is normal, however if the red LED stays on continuously,

it means the signal is too loud and there is the possibility of overload distortion. Back off from the microphone until the red LED indicator only flickers on peaks.

[Note: Observe care in selecting P.A. volume, transmitter location and speaker placement so that acoustic feedback (howling or screeching) will be avoided.]

[Note: Microphone elements can easily be destroyed by the buildup of salts and minerals from perspiration and saliva. It is good practice to put a windscreen on the mic element at all times to protect it.]

Encore I specifications

The Nady Systems Encore I represents a significant advancement in wireless microphone technology, delivering clarity and reliability to both performers and presenters. Designed with versatility in mind, the Encore I is suitable for a wide range of applications, including live performances, conferences, and educational settings.

One of the main features of the Encore I is its UHF (Ultra High Frequency) operation. With a frequency range that typically spans from 600 to 700 MHz, it provides better sound quality and reduced interference compared to VHF systems. The UHF transmission allows for a broader selection of channels, making it easier for users to find a clear frequency in crowded environments, which is a common challenge in today’s wireless landscape.

The Encore I also boasts a simple yet effective automatic frequency scanning feature. This technology scans the available frequencies and selects the best one to minimize dropouts and interference. This ensures that the user can focus on their performance without worrying about technical difficulties. The system supports multiple channels, allowing for multi-channel setups with multiple performers.

Another standout characteristic of the Encore I is its rugged build quality. Designed for the rigors of frequent use, the microphone and receiver are constructed to withstand the demands of touring musicians and event hosts alike. The handheld microphone features a high-quality dynamic capsule that captures sound accurately while minimizing feedback and handling noise.

The Encore I also includes an integrated LED indicator for battery status, providing real-time notifications to users about power levels. This preventative measure is crucial for performances, allowing artists to replace or recharge batteries before they run out.

Furthermore, the system offers a range of up to 300 feet in open spaces, providing freedom of movement, which is essential for dynamic performances. The compact and lightweight receiver can be easily mounted or placed on a tabletop, facilitating quick setups in various environments.

Overall, the Nady Systems Encore I stands out due to its robust features, user-friendly operation, and reliable performance. Whether for live stage applications or intimate gatherings, this wireless microphone system delivers exceptional audio fidelity and ease of use, making it an excellent choice for anyone in need of quality sound reinforcement.
