1.RF: Indicates the P4R receiver is receiv- ing a transmission. Always check for RF reception prior to inserting earphones into ears.

2.Battery Life Meter: Indicates the approximate amount of voltage left in the battery. These voltages translate to time as follows:

HIGH: 4-8 hours of operation.

MEDIUM: 1-4 hours of operation.

LOW: less than 1 hours of operation.

NOTE: If no bars are present within the battery life gauge, change the battery immediately. Battery life depends on many

variables, including battery type (brand), earphones used, and receiver volume setting.

3.RECEPTION CHANNEL (FREQ): The P4R receiver features 16 preset, user-selectable channels (0-9 and A-F). The receiver must be set to the same channel as its transmitter.

4.MixMode (MIX): The receiver receives the monitor mix in either MixMode (MIX ON) or stereo (MIX OFF). See MixMode/ Stereo Control on page 5.

NOTE: If the receiver is receiving only one signal, it will be in mono.

5.High Frequency Equalization (EQ): Adds 6 dB at 10 kHz for increased treble response.

6.Limiter (LIM): The limiter provides pro- tection against loud signal.

WARNING! Turning the Limiter OFF defeats protection against hazardous sound levels!
