The receiver will automatically detect an external 48 kHz clock and then use the external clock. You can check the Wordclock status in the Channel Information window.

This switch allows you to remove hum caused by ground loops.

To open the chassis ground connection, set the GROUND LIFT switch to the LIFT position. You can check the GND LIFT status in the Channel Information window.

Check that the AC mains voltage stated on the rear panel is identical to the AC supply voltage available where your system will be used. Using the power supply with a dif- ferent AC voltage may cause damage to the unit.

Plug the power cord into the AC IN socket (25) on the receiver’s rear panel and the other end of the power cord into a convenient power outlet.

We recommend setting the carrier fre- quency in SILENT mode only (RF OFF).

To engage SILENT mode, push and hold the MUTE switch (2) while turning on (6) the transmitter. This is the only way to make sure you won't go "on air" on a frequency that is not allocated or

coordinated and risk "jamming" or interfering with some other RF device or wireless system.

The receiver is electronically locked so that you won’t make any unintended adjustments. The "LOCK" label (D) is shown on the display.

To enter SETUP mode, press and hold the SELECT control (5) until the "LOCK" label disappears. After approximately 4 minutes with no action, the receiver will automatically switch into LOCK mode.

To disable the automatic LOCK function, call up the AUTOLOCK sub-menu and select "OFF".

The optional RMS 4000 Remote Mute Switch allows muting of the transmitter if it is mounted in a position where it is difficult or impossible to use the "on-board" MUTE switch.
