1.With the transmitter and receiver on, monitor the display screen. Note that the RF (1-100) Bar graph should indicate near the 100 mark. The AF Bar should show very little, if any, indication until you talk or sing into the microphone. Adjust the transmitter gain control if necessary to cause the AF Bar Graph to peak near -6 to -3 but not over +3 for best performance.

2.Set the mixer/amp gain.

3.Talk or sing into the microphone or play the guitar at a normal volume. You should hear audio coming out of the system.

4.If using the unbalanced 1/4" output, you may have to ad- just the gain (via the control next to the connector on the back panel) to match the level found when singing or play- ing with a wired connection.

"Quick Set-up" is now complete.
