AKG WMS SR 4000

AKG WMS 4000 RECEIVER

THE CUTTING-EDGE TRUE DIVERSITY RECEIVER

The SR 4000 True Diversity Receiver offers maximum convenience with state-of-the-art technology and the widest range of functions in its class.

Naturally, the SR 4000 is optimally equip- ped for the setup of large multichannel systems, so that connecting antenna split- ters, power supply units, computer networks, etc. is quite easy.

The accurate battery life readout is a novel and invaluable feature for live sound applica- tions. The transmitter uses a pilot tone to transmit accurate information such as bat-

tery status to the receiver that displays the remaining battery life in hours. The pilot tone decoder also evaluates and displays other important data including the status of the MUTE switch on the transmitter.

The integrated software does not only permit automatic setup and frequency scanning but also remote control and monitoring from a PC via a dedicated interface. With the optional MCS 4000 Mission Control Software, setting up and monitoring highly complex systems is child’s play. A logic output allows control of external devices, e.g., automatic microphone mixers.

Of course the SR 4000 operates in an extreme- ly wide UHF band (30 MHz) with prepro- grammed frequency presets, each providing up to 24 intermodulation-free subchannels*. The maximum number of selectable frequen- cies is 1200. The large backlit color display and the setup control make the unit easy to use, and a programmable LED ring indicates selectable critical conditions.

Housed in a half-rack 19” all-metal case, the SR 4000 is the most compact, reliable, and powerful UHF receiver in its class.
