QUICK SETUP AND USE
To get your system into operation quickly, use the following instructions. Review the rest of the manual for additional setup and operational de- tails.
1.Place the receiver where there is a clear line of sight to the area where the transmitter will be used (Figure 1). Extend the receiver’s an- tennas and separate them 90 degrees (see Figure 2).
2.Make sure the sound system’s volume is low or off on the input you intend to use for the wireless.
3.Plug in the receiver’s power adapter into an AC outlet and the other end into the receiver. CAUTION: Please make sure that the AC adapter is the correct voltage for your lo- cal requirements.
4.Plug the audio cable (not supplied) into either output connector. The
nector is the preferred choice since the output is balanced. Either connector may be used with good results.
5.Turn the output level control (see Figure 2) on the front panel to the 12:00 o’clock position (midway in the control’s range) if the
6.Setup and adjust the transmitter level as de- scribed on the following pages.
7.Turn up the level on the mixer or preamp to the desired setting.
8.Speak into the microphone or strum the in- strument and, if necessary, adjust the receiver’s output until the volume level from the wireless system approximates the level of an equivalent wired microphone or instru- ment.
9.“Walk” the expected area of use to check for dropouts or interference. If problems occur, see the troubleshooting section.

HTU HANDHELD TRANSMITTER SETUP
1.Insert battery. Slide open the battery com- partment cover by placing your thumb on the indents of the battery door (at the back end of the transmitter) and gently pull down (see Fig- ure 3).
2.Turn on the transmitter by sliding the power switch (closest to the battery compartment) forward to its on position, toward the mic ele- ment. The red battery condition light should flash once and then go out. If the red LED stays on or illuminates during a performance, it should be replaced immediately. The green LED will stay lit when the transmitter is on.
3.Check reception. Observe that the audio carrier light on the front panel of the receiver is illuminated, an indication that the receiver is picking up the signal. Then, “walk” the in- tended area of use and make sure that there are no barriers to reception or sources of in- terference.
4.Unmute the audio by sliding the audio switch (immediately below the mic element) towards the windscreen.
5.Adjust the gain if necessary. First, speak or sing into the microphone and listen closely for distortion or hiss. If the gain is too low or high, adjustments are necessary. Gently insert the provided screwdriver (or other
6.Adjust the squelch control if necessary. The squelch control on the back of the re- ceiver may be adjusted to increase range or reduce interference. Turn the control counter-
