RECEIVER SETUP/USE - 1201URX/AB or 1201URX/VM

As the RF signal from the transmitter gets stronger (or weaker) the number of illuminated LCD segments in the display will change - with 3 segments being the maximum and best. Similarly, the AF (audio level) segments will light from 1 to 3 segments as the audio gets stronger or weaker. In this case, the best level is achieved as the display shows between 2 and 3 segments. If all 3 segments stay illuminated for a continued period of time it is likely that you are over-driving the receiver’s input and you should reduce the transmitting level by either moving the microphone further away from the sound source or reducing the input gain on the transmitter.

THE 1201URX/Si

The 1201URX/Si receiver is specially designed to work with specific Pana- sonic “Slot-In” or Ikegami “Uni-Slot” cameras. Once mounted in the camera, the DB-25 connector on the bottom provides the receiver with power directly from the camera’s power supply (battery) while delivering audio directly to the camera’s audio input. Items A. [j], C., D. [p] and G. [o] on pages 1 and 2 apply directly to the 1201URX/Si

1201URX/Si Top panel display and operation:

The MODE Switch [r] performs 1 of 5 functions.

Initial MODE display:

The initial MODE shows the receiving band shown as Group, Channel and Frequency. If there is no action taken with the MODE switch for 4 seconds the display will return to the Initial Display. Pressing the MODE switch for one second while showing the Initial Display will cause the currently set frequency to be displayed.

Mode #1 (GR):

From the Initial Display, quickly pressing the MODE switch once displays the Group Display. Pressing the UP or DOWN buttons will change the Group Number. There are 7 Groups, 6 of which have the best selection of frequency combinations when using multiple systems. Group 0 allows for choosing any channel/frequency. The last Group is memorized when the receiver is turned OFF. The chart on page 3 shows the Group vs Frequency combinations.

Mode #2 (CH):

To change the channel/frequency within the selected group, press the MODE switch a 2nd time. “CH” will be displayed. Using either the UP or DOWN buttons[ ] the desired receiving channel/frequency combination can be set (the chart on page 3 shows the relationship). Tapping the button steps the channel/frequency number one at a time while pressing and holding the but- ton moves through the combinations rapidly. There are 188 different channel/ frequency combinations to choose from “Group” allows you to select all of the combinations). Once the desired channel/frequency has been determined set both the transmitter and receiver to match. When the receiver is turned OFF the last channel/frequency chosen is stored in memory.

Mode #3 (SQ):

To change the squelch level, press the MODE switch for a third time. “SQ” will show in the display. There are 3 settings to choose from:

on on = RF mute ON - Tone mute ON (default) on off = RF mute ON - Tone mute OFF

off off = RF mute OFF - Tone mute OFF

You can cycle through these with the UP/DOWN buttons. The squelch returns to the default when the receiver is turned OFF.

Mode #4 (SQ Level):

There are four levels of Squelch to choose from:

0 =Default

3 = 3dB (RF) increase to the default -6 = 6dB (RF) decrease to the default -3 = 3dB (RF) decrease to the default

You can cycle through these with the UP/DOWN buttons.

See the discussion at the bottom of page 2 and the top of page 4 for informa- tion concerning the other parts of the display.
