SKP 100 G2 / SKP 500 G2 plug-on transmitters

Preparing for use

Inserting and changing the battery

For powering the plug-on transmitter, you can either use two 1.5 V AA size batteries or the rechargeable Sennheiser BA 2015 accupack.

Slide the battery compartment cover in the direction of the embossed arrow until it clicks audibly and open the cover.

Insert the two batteries or the BA 2015 rechargeable battery as shown below. Please observe correct polarity when inserting the batteries/accupack.

Close the battery compartment. The battery compartment cover 9 locks into place with an audible click.

Note:

For rechargeable battery operation of the transmitter, only use the BA 2015 rechargeable battery in order to ensure optimum operational reliability. For charging the accupack, only use the L 2015 charger. Both the rechargeable battery and the charger are available as accessories.

The rechargeable battery is fitted with an integrated sensor which is – via a third contact – monitored by the electronics of the plug-on transmitter and the charger. The sensor is necessary for the following control purposes:

yThe taking into account of the different voltage characteristics of primary cells (batteries) and accupacks. The battery status indications on the displays, the transmission of transmitter battery status information to the rack-mount receivers and the switch-off thresholds at the end of the operating time are corrected correspondingly. Due to the missing sensor, individual rechargeable battery cells will not be identified as accupacks.

yThe monitoring of the rechargeable battery temperature during charing in the L 2015 charger.

Plugging the transmitter onto the microphone

Plug the transmitter’s XLR-3 connector onto the microphone’s XLR-3 socket.

Tighten the locking ring .

Note:

The transmitter uses the microphone body as an antenna – therefore only microphones with a metal casing should be used for best signal transmission.
