Connecting Antennas

If you install one or ore receivers into a 19" rack, either mount the supplied antennas on the receiver front panel(s) or use remote antennas. This is the only way to ensure opti- mum reception quality.

Single Receiver

1.Unscrew the four rubber feet (1) from the receiver bottom panel.

2.Unscrew the two fixing screws (2) from each side panel.

3.Use the fixing screws (2) to screw the short bracket 3 to one side panel and the long bracket (4) to the other side panel. The brackets are contained in the supplied rack mounting kit.

4.Install the receiver in your rack.

Two Receivers Side by Side

1.Unscrew the four rubber feet (1) from each receiver's bottom panel and remove the screws (5) from the rubber feet (1).

2.Unscrew the two fixing screws (2) from the right-hand side panel of one receiver and from the left-hand side panel of the other receiver.

3.Fix the connecting strips (4) on the first receiver using the screws (5) you removed from the rubber feet.

4.To join the two receivers, slide the connecting strips (4) on the first receiver through the free slots in the side panel of the second receiver. Make sure to align the hole in each connecting strip (4) with the appropriate threaded hole in the bottom panel of the sec - ond receiver.

5.Fix the connecting strips (4) on the second receiver using the screws (5) you removed from the rubber feet (1).

6.Screw a short bracket (6) to the outer side panel of each receiver using for each bracket two of the screws (2) you removed from the receiver side panels.

7.Install the receivers in your rack.

The supplied ¼-wave antennas can be mounted quickly and easily and are suitable for ap- plications where a direct line of sight between the transmitter and the receiver antenna is available and a wireless microphone system has to be set up within a very short time.

Remote Antennas

If reception is less than ideal at the receiver’s position, use remote antennas: - Connect the remote antennas to the BNC sockets on the receiver rear panel. - Use RG58 or RG213 cable to connect the antennas.
