Receiver Installation

Location

For best operation the receiver should be at least 3' (1 m) above the ground and at least 3' (1 m) away from a wall or metal surface to minimize reflections. Keep the receiver antennas away from noise sources such as other digital wireless equipment, microwave ovens, as well as away from large metal objects. Keep System 10 receiver 30' (9 m) away from wireless access points. In multi-channel systems, position receivers at least 3' (1 m) apart and keep operating transmitters at least 6' (2 m) from the receivers to help assure maximum RF performance.

Output Connection

The ATW-R1700 has a single audio output jack that accepts the 3.5 mm (1/8") cable included in the package.

Use the Audio Output Selector Switch to choose between a balanced and an unbalanced dual mono signal.

The 3.5 mm (1/8") Headphone Monitor output works with mono or stereo headphones (the output sends a dual mono audio signal to stereo headphones). Use the Headphone Level Control to adjust the volume.

Power Connection

NOTE: Use only the supplied AC adapter and power cord to power or charge receiver. To use AC power, connect the power cord’s USB A-type male port to the AC adapter and connect the Micro-USB B port to the USB Power Input on the side of the receiver. Next, plug the adapter into a standard 120 Volt 60 Hz or 230 volt 50 Hz (depending on global location) AC power outlet. The AC adapter and USB cable also charges the receiver’s internal battery. Charge battery in an environment with moderate temperature (41°F – 95°F). The system will not charge in temperatures below 32°F or above 104°F in order to prevent potential damage to battery. For safety and to conserve energy, unplug the

AC adapter from the AC outlet when the system is not in use. Store receiver in a cool place.

Antennas

For best reception, position the removable antennas in the shape of a “V” so that both tilt 45°.

12.Audio Output Selector Switch: Move left for balanced output or right for unbalanced (dual mono) output.

13.Audio Output Attenuator Switch: Default is 0 dB. Move one stop left to reduce he audio output by 10 dB or two stops left to reduce output by 20 dB.

14.Audio Output Jack: TRS balanced or unbalanced (dual mono)

3.5 mm (1/8") jack. Can be connected to the input of a camera or mixer.

Figure E— Camera Shoe Mount

Camera Shoe Mount allows receiver to be attached to a camera or tripod. Slide mount onto receiver from the rear so mount engages the grooves on the sides of the receiver and slips under the clip on the bottom. Slide until rear of mount is flush with rear of receiver. The mount bracket
