Scanning the channel banks for free channels – SCAN

Before putting one or several ew 500 G2transmissionlinks into operation, you should scan the channel banks for free channels.

Starting the scan and storing the scan result

Before starting the scan, switch all transmitters of your system off, since channels used by switched-on transmitters will not be displayed as “free channels”.

Select the channel bank that you want to scan for free channels (see “Switching between channel banks” on page21).

Select the “SCAN” menu.

Select “START” and confirm your selection by pressing the SET button. After the scanis completed, the number of free channels is displayed. Pressing the SET button once morewillstore the scan result andlock all channels that are used or subject to interference.

Releasing locked channels

First, selectthechannelbank whose lockedchannels you want to release (see “Switching between channel banks” on page 21).

Select the “SCAN” menu.

Select “CLEAR” and confirm your selection by pressing the SET button. All channels in this channel bank can now be selected again.

Multi-channel operation

Combined with ew 500 G2 transmitters, the receiver can form transmission links that can be used in multi-channel systems. For multi-channel operation, only use the free channels in a channelbank.

Before putting the transmission links into operation, we recommend performing an auto scan.

Select a channel bank on a receiver.

Scan this channel bank for free channels. If not enough free channels are available in the selected channel bank, repeat the scan with another channel bank.

Apply the scan result to all other receivers and transmitters.
