3 Setting Up

•Push and hold the ON/OFF button (3) until the message "oFF" appears on the display

(2).

The display goes dark and power to the transmitter is OFF.

•If you are not sure as to what carrier frequency the transmitter is tuned to, place the transmitter into SILENT mode following steps 1 and 2 below. In SILENT mode, you can check and adjust the carrier frequency and input gain without transmit- ting a radio signal.

1.If the transmitter is ON, switch it OFF.

2.Push and hold the setup switch until the display backlighting comes on.

The display will first show the battery capacityin hours and as a bargraph and then the currently selected carrier frequency in MHz.

As the backlighting goes out, the display changes as follows:

The transmitter is now in SILENT mode and the display shows the Preset menu.

3.You can either select one of the Preset Channels from the Preset menu (section 3.6.1) or set the carrier frequency in 25-kHz increments in the Frequency menu (section 3.6.2). The spacing between Preset frequencies prevents any mutual interference.

A Preset comprises one or more Groups of carrier frequencies. Group numbers are shown under the "GRP" label. Carrier frequencies are also called "Channels" whose numbers are indicated below the "CH" label. The spacing between these frequencies is wide enough to prevent any mutual interference (intermodulation). Presets make it much easier to design a multichannel system. They save time because you do not need to calculate your own car- rier frequencies and help you avoid intermodulation problems.

Each Preset has a one or two-character "NAME" relating to the country where the respec- tive carrier frequencies are allocated (e.g., "SD" for countries with no regulations, "US" for the USA, or "UK" for Britain, etc.). The Preset names are sorted alphabetically.

When designing a multichannel system, make sure to use Channels within the same Group only. Using Channels of different Presets and/or Groups simultaneously may cause inter- modulation.

3.6.1 Preset Menu

•	Some Presets may be approved in more than one country. To check which Frequency	Note:
	Group(s) is (are) approved in your country, visit www.akgfrequency.at or contact your
	local regulation authority.
1.	Push the setup switch briefly. The "NAME" label and the name of the currently active Pre-
	set will start flashing.
	If no Preset has been stored in memory, the 2nd line of the display shows "------".
2.	To select the next Preset, turn the setup switch briefly to the right.
	To select the previous Preset, turn the setup switch briefly to the left.
3.	Having selected the desired Preset, push the setup switch briefly. The "GRP" label and
	the number of the currently active Frequency Group will start flashing.
