Receiver Controls and Functions (Continued)

Receiver Controls

Power On/Off

Press the power switch to turn the receiver on. After a short power-up sequence, the display shows the operating frequency and the alert light is illuminated (if no active transmitters are present on this frequency). The receiver may also display a system position (i.e., “MASTER”, “SLV-#”) or an assigned transmitter or receiver name (if this feature has been set up—the display recalls the setting from the last time power was applied). Refer to page 16 on setting up receiver names or page 20 on setting up transmitter names.

Level

This control is used to set a comfortable listening level for the headphone jack. Turn the control clockwise to increase the level.

LCD Window

The LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) window provides visual indication of key operating and configuration parameters.

It is also used in conjunction with the Mode/Set and Up/Down arrow buttons to change user-configurable functions.

Alert Light (LED)

The alert light illuminates to indicate to the user that something needs attention; for example, the transmitter batteries are low, or the transmitter is muted or turned off. Refer to page 10 for a complete description of alert light indications.

Mode/Set Button

The Mode/Set button has different functions depending on the status of the receiver. Two distinct operations are associated with this button:

Touch: A momentary press of the Mode/Set button. It is used to enter Menu mode, to enter Edit mode, or to Escape without making any changes to current settings.

Hold: A press and hold (about two seconds) of the Mode/Set button. It is used to accept a new setting when the receiver is in Edit mode or to save the current settings to one of the five user-defined name presets or the internal memory location (“NAME?”).

Up/Down Arrow Buttons

The Up/Down arrow buttons are used in conjunction with the Mode/Set button to scroll through the function menu in Menu mode or through the available choices for a given function in Edit mode.

When the receiver is in normal operating mode, the Up/Down arrow buttons scroll through Receiver Address (“MASTER” or “SLV-#”), Receiver Preset Name, or Transmitter Preset Name.

How to change receiver settings

Enter Menu mode

With the receiver in the normal operating mode, touch the Mode/Set button. The top line of the receiver display shows “FRQ” preceded by one, two, or three asterisks.

Touch the Up/Down arrow buttons to scroll through the available functions that may be changed. (See the chart on page 17 for a list of functions and display indication.) Note that the display’s lower line indicates the current setting for a given function.

Enter Edit mode

When the function to be edited is displayed, touch the Mode/Set button. The small word “EDIT” flashes in the bottom of the display, indicating Edit mode.

Touch the Up/Down arrow buttons to scroll through the available choices for the function, stopping on the desired choice.

Hold the Mode/Set button to accept the new choice. “STORED” appears in the display when the choice is accepted. The receiver then reverts to Menu mode.

Continue this process until all desired function-setting changes are complete.

Note: To escape from Edit mode without making any changes, touch the Mode/Set button. “ESCAPE” appears briefly in the display, and the receiver reverts to Menu mode.

Quitting and saving changes

The receiver has several methods of saving function settings. Each receiver has five loadable user presets that may be given individual names (up to six characters), along with a special, non-loadable memory location called “NAME?” that can store the most recent settings until they are changed.

To save a set of receiver function settings, use the Up/Down arrow buttons to scroll until the display shows “QUIT.” The procedure for saving the current settings depends upon the desired location:

Saving to the “NAME?” location

If the current receiver settings do not need to be identified with a name, the special “NAME?” location may be used to store them. As with the “last number redial” function on a telephone, these settings remain stored in the receiver even if power

is turned off. They disappear only if one of the settings is modified.

To store settings in the “NAME?” location, touch the Mode/Set button. The display shows “NAME?” for the receiver name.

Saving updated settings to the currently loaded user “PRESET#” location

To update the receiver settings in the currently loaded user preset that is already named, hold the Mode/Set button. The display shows “STORE XXXXXX” (where XXXXXX indicates the preset’s name).

Hold the Mode/Set button a second time. The first character of the name flashes.

Hold the Mode/Set button a third time. The display briefly shows “STORED”, and the receiver reverts to normal operation.
