Introduction / System Features

Congratulations on purchasing the Samson UHF Series One Wireless System! Although this product is designed for easy operation, we suggest you first take some time to go through these pages so you can fully understand how we’ve implemented a number of unique features.

Every wireless system consists of at least two components—a transmitter and a receiver, both of which must be tuned to the same channel (that is, the same radio frequency) in order to operate correctly.* The Samson UHF Series One system you have purchased operates in the 801 - 805 MHz frequency range and contains a UR1 receiver and either our UT1L belt-pack transmitter (for lavalier microphone or headset applications), UT1G belt-pack transmitter (for instrument applications) or UH1 hand-held microphone transmitter (available in a wide variety of popular capsules).

In this manual, you’ll find a more detailed description of the features of the UHF Series One system, as well as a guided tour through all components, step-by-step instructions for setting up your system, wiring diagrams and tables, and full specifications. If your UHF Series One system was purchased in the United States, you’ll also find a warranty card enclosed—don’t forget to fill it out and mail it! This will enable you to receive online technical support and will allow us to send you updated information about this and other Samson products in the future. If your UHF Series One system was purchased outside of the U. S., contact your local distributor for warranty details.

SPECIAL NOTE for U.S. purchasers: Should your UHF Series One system ever require servicing, a Return Authorization number (RA) is necessary. Without this number, the unit will not be accepted. If your UHF Series One system was purchased in the United States, please call Samson at 1-800-372-6766 for a Return Authorization number prior to shipping your unit. If possible, return the unit in its original carton and packing materials. If your UHF Series One system was purchased outside of the U. S., contact your local distributor for servicing information.

*Your receiver and transmitter have been factory preset to utilize the same channel. A listing of the six available channels and their corresponding UHF frequencies can be found on page 4 of this manual.
