Compatibility

The transmitter and receiver must be of the same frequency band and set to the same channel in order to work together. The R300 is available in three frequency bands, A, B and E (Europe only). The band information is available in the label on the bottom of the receiver, the label in the battery compartment of the handheld transmitter, and on the back panel label in the bodypack.

Using Multiple Wireless Systems

If three or more R300 systems and/or other UHF/VHF wireless systems are being used in the same location, proper frequency coordination is necessary to avoid interference. Some channels in the R300 are designed to work together, see the channel maps in the back of the guide for more information. Contact your dealer or Electro-Voice for assistance if you are planning more systems or using the R300 with other wireless equipment.

Multiple Systems and R300

The ClearScan function can be used to set up any two R300 systems. Just scan with the first unit, set the transmitter to that clear channel and leave it on. Then scan the second unit for another clear channel. If 3 or more systems are used in the same room, put all of the channels in the same group as indicated by the channel map on page 29-31.

Potential Sources of Interference

There are many potential sources of interference for your wireless system. Any electronic product that contains digital circuitry including digital signal processors (reverb/multi-effects units), electronic keyboards, digital lighting controllers, CD and DVD players, and computers, all emit RF energy that can
