1.2Antennae

Fully extend the antennae and set them at an angle of 60° between each antenna. The two antennae are positioned this way to achieve the best pick-up reception.

1.3Setting up

1.Place the NE 100 diversity receiver in the same room or area as the transmitters. Ensure that the NE 100 is installed as close as possible to the mixing console or amplifier so that all indications can be seen at all times.

2.Do not place the NE 100 diversity receiver near digitally controlled equipment.

3.Connect the XLR-output (6) to the corresponding input of the mixing console or amplifier. Using the output level control (5) you can adjust the gain.

4.Make sure the mains voltage shown on the power supply unit corresponds to the local mains voltage.

5.Connect the power supply unit to the receiver and to AC power. The receiver has no separate On/Off switch. The power On / Mute LED (2) is illuminated red.

6.To adjust the input gain turn the squelch control (4) to maximum.

7.If the On/Mute LED (2) is illuminated green when there is no transmitter switched on, there is RF noise present. Turn the squelch control (4) counter clockwise to minimum until the RF noise is disappeared.

8.As soon as you switch on the transmitter, the On/Mute LED (2) should go out and the diversity LEDs (3) indicate which antenna input is active.

1.4Diversity Indication of the Receiving Channel

The NE 100 has two separate receiving circuits for each of the antennae A and B. The signal with the better S/N ratio is silently switched to the output. The received diversity channel A or B is shown on the LEDs (3).

1.5Squelch

Switch off the transmitter before you change the squelch. Now the receiver should be muted. If it is not, then slowly adjust the squelch (4) until all unwanted signals are muted. As soon as the receiver has been muted, the On/Mute LED (2) is illuminated red. Setting the level too high, however, will reduce the range of your system.

Squelch control (4) to the left = minimum range

Squelch control (4) to the right = maximum range - Caution: Interferences can occur!
