System Operation (Continued)
Turning on the Transmitter
Turn on the transmitter by holding the Power/Mute button (see Figure J/K on page 18) for a second or two, until the red power indicator and the LCD window have come on. (When using a handheld transmitter, unscrew and slide down the lower body cover, as shown in Figures N/P on page 22.)
Setting Transmitter Frequency
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
1.Touch the Set button once. The small word “MENU” appears above the frequency. Touch the Set button again and
the small flashing word “EDIT” appears to the right of
“MENU.” (The actual frequency flashes twice, then “EDIT” continues to flash.)
2.Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to change the transmitter frequency. Touch either arrow for single steps, or hold down either arrow for rapid cycling through the range. Frequencies “wrap around” when the top or bottom of the band is reached. Select the exact frequency displayed on the receiver.
3.To activate this frequency selection, hold the Set button until the word “STORED” appears in the transmitter’s window. (If you do not wish to complete this selection, just touch the Set button once: the word “ESCAPE” appears briefly in the window, and the transmitter returns to the Menu mode.)
4.When finished entering a frequency, touch the Up arrow button once to move to “QUIT.” Then touch the Set button once to exit the menu. The word “MENU” in the transmitter window disappears, indicating the return to normal operation.
5.If desired, assign a standard or custom Preset Name at this time as described on page 20 (To store Preset configurations), so this particular configuration can be recalled in the future.
If a new name is not assigned, the transmitter will continue to operate on this frequency (and with these settings) until some other change in settings is made.
When the transmitter is switched on and in normal operation, the receiver’s two “RF”
Setting Levels
Correct adjustment of transmitter audio input, receiver audio output, and mixer/amplifier input and output levels is important for optimum system performance.
Setting Transmitter Audio Input Level
Select the highest setting that does not result in over- modulation with the highest audio/instrument input levels (an AF indication on the receiver no higher than “+3”); watch the receiver’s “AF”
Also, the transmitter’s red LED power indicator, which is on during normal operation, will blink off if the peak audio input reaches overload level.
Available Level Settings
RF Power Adjustment
RF power may be set to “RF HI” (35 mW nominal) or “RF LOW” (10 mW nominal) through the function menu. The default setting is “RF LOW.” While the Hi setting normally provides maximum operating range, the Low setting will help extend battery life. The Low setting may also be preferred when using
RF Interference
Wireless frequencies are shared with other radio services. According to Federal Communications Commission regulations, “Wireless microphone operations are unprotected from interference from other licensed operations in the band. If any interference is received by any Government or
