Signal and battery status indication

The yellow LED	at the top of the SK 500 transmitter lights up if the
audio signal at the AF input is excessively high (AF peak).
The red LED	and the lower 8-segment bargraph on the display provide
information on the battery status.

Bargraph:

The bargraph indicates the (remaining) battery capacity in 3 steps:

8 segments:	the full battery capacity is available,
4 segments:	the battery capacity is sufficient,
1 segment:	the battery is going flat,
	immediately replace the battery.

Note:

When switching on the transmitter with a partially used battery, it is possible that all eight segments may show for a short period of time – if this happens, re-check battery status after a few moments.

LED lit up:

The transmitter is switched on and the battery capacity is sufficient.

LED flashing:

The battery is going flat! You should immediately replace the battery.

Attachment of the transmitter to clothing

The SK 500 transmitter is best attached to e.g. the belt with clip .

The clip is detachable so that you can also attach the transmitter with the antenna pointing downwards. To do so, withdraw the clip from its fixing points and attach it the other way round.

Attachment of the microphones

The microphone clips enable the attachment of the ME 2 and ME 4 clip- on microphones to clothing (e.g. tie, lapel).

The ME 3 headmic is adjustable to comfortably and securely fit your head.

Positioning the microphones

The ME 3 and ME 4 microphones are directional microphones, i.e. their sound inlet should always be directed towards the sound source (e.g. mouth). The ME 2 with omni-directional pick-up pattern picks up sound equally from all directions. It is the best choice if movements of the speaker’s head have to be compensated for.
