GETTING STARTED
Please check your new unit carefully for any damage which may have occurred during shipment. Each Anchor product is carefully
inspected at the factory and packed in specially designed boxes for safe transport.
Notify the freight carrier immediately of any damage to the shipping box or product. Repack the unit in the original box and wait
for inspection by the carrier’s claim agent. Notify your dealer of the pending freight claim.
OPERATING THE WIRELESS MICROPHONE / TRANSMITTER
CHANNEL SELECTION - HANDHELD TRANSMITTER

WARRANTY REGISTRATION
Visit our website at www.anchoraudio.com and select “Warranty Registration”. Complete the online form to activate the six-year
limited warranty on your MegaVox PRO sound system and two-year limited warranty for microphones.
SETTING UP YOUR MEGAVOX PRO SOUND SYSTEM
We recommend placing your sound system between the audience and the presenter, facing the audience and raised above their
heads using a speaker stand or table. This benefits listeners in the rear of the crowd, minimizes the risk of overpowering those
in the front and helps prevent feedback by keeping microphone users behind the sound system.
SINGLE SYSTEM PLACEMENT
Place your unit along the least trafficked aisle pointing
towards the center of the audience.
MULTIPLE SYSTEM PLACEMENT
Place units along aisles pointing just off the audience
center line, over the crowds head. With the sound system
placed properly it should provide sufficient coverage.
USING YOUR WIRELESS MICROPHONES
After you have set the transmitter channel (see above) you are ready to use your wireless microphone:
1. Body-pack transmitter users must insert the mic
plug into the transmitter jack marked MIC
2. Turn the transmitter power switch to ON
(The red LED will flash when the mic is turned on.
If the red LED stays on, the battery is low)
CAUTION: Harmful feedback may occur when walking in front of a sound system or
speaker with a wireless microphone. Always point microphone away from speakers!
REPLACE BATTERY - HANDHELD TRANSMITTER
1. Unscrew battery cover on bottom of microphone
2. Replace old batteries with 2 fresh size ‘AA’
alkaline batteries
3. Replace battery cover and tighten firmly
3. Turn the MegaVox PRO power switch to ON
4. The RX indicators will light (only one indicator
will light at a time) when the wireless signal is
being transmitted and received
REPLACE BATTERY - BODY-PACK TRANSMITTER
1. Slide open battery cover on front of transmitter
2. Replace old batteries with 2 fresh size ‘AA’
alkaline batteries
3. Replace battery cover by sliding firmly into place
NOTE: The Line Out jack can also be used to send the signal to a sound
system in a different room or a separate recording device.
NOTE: Transmitter power must be OFF when changing batteries!
