Notes on receiving performance
The system for this equipment utilizes very high frequency signals in the 800 MHz band so the receiving performance may deteriorate due to the surroundings. The following examples illustrate conditions that may reduce the possible receiving range or cause interference with reception.
•Inside a building with walls containing steel beams.•Area with many steel file cabinets, etc.•Area with many electrical appliances capable of generating electromagnetic noise.
•Transmitter is placed on a metal instrument.•Area facing roadways.•Noise or interfering signals exist in the surroundings due to radio transceivers in trucks, etc.
•Noise or interfering signals exist in the surroundings due to wireless communication systems installed along roadways.
•Transmitter is placed directly on floor. Placing it up off the floor, such as on a desk, is recommended.
You can use the transmitter supplied with the

The effective areas of the transmitterThe optimum distance is up to approximately 246 feet (75 m) without the system picking up some interference. However, the distance may vary according to the surroundings and environment. If the system picks up some noise while using it within the above mentioned distance, reduce the distance between the transmitter unit and the speaker system, or select another channel.
Notes
• When you use the speaker system inside the effective |
areas of the transmitter, the transmitter can be placed in |
any direction from the listener. |
