WARNING: Changes or modications not expressly approved in writing by
Audio-Technica may void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
RF Exposure Statement: This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
The ATW-R1100 complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and
RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment has very low levels
of RF energy that it deemed to comply without maximum permissive exposure evaluation
(MPE). But it is desirable that it should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at
least 20cm or more away from a person’s body.
Le ATH-R1100 conforme aux limites d' exposition aux rayonnements énoncées pour
un environnement non contrôlé et respecte les règles d' exposition aux fréquences
radioélectriques (RF) CNR-102 de I'IC. Cet équipement émet une énergie RF très faible qui
est considérée conforme sans évaluation de l' exposition maximale autorisée. Cependant,
il est souhaitable qu'il devrait être installé et utilisé en gardant une distance de 20 cm ou
plus entre le dispositif rayonnant et le corps.
The available scientic evidence does not show that any health problems are associated
with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power
wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio
frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of
RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not
produce heating effects cause no known adverse health effects. Many studies of lowlevel RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested
that some biological effects might occur but such ndings have not been conrmed by
additional research. ATW-T1001, ATW-T1002 has been tested and found to comply with
FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set fourth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the
FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF)
Exposure rules.
Les connaissances scientiques dont nous disposons n’ ont mis en évidence aucun
probième de santé associé à l' usage des appareils sans l à faible puissance. Nous ne
sommes cependant pas en mesure de prouver que ces appareils sans l à faible puissance
sont entièrement sans danger. Les appareils sans l à faible puissance émettent une
énergie radioélectrique (RF) très faible dans le spectre des micro-ondes lorsque' ils sont
utilisés. Alors qu' une dose élevée de RF peut avoir des effets sur la santé (en chauffant
les tissus), l' exposition à de faibles RF qui ne produisent pas de chaleur n' a pas de mauvais effets connus sur la santé. De nombreuses études ont été menées sur les expositions
aux RF faibles et n' ont découvert aucun effet biologique. Certaines études ont suggéré qu'
il pouvait y avoir certains effets biologigues, mais ces résultats n’ ont pas été conrmés
par des recherches supplémentaires. ATW-T1001, ATW-T1002 a été testé et jugé conforme
aux limites d' exposition aux rayonnements énoncées pour un environnement non contrôlé
et respecte les règles les radioélectriques (RF) de la FCC lignes directrices d'exposition et
d' exposition aux fréquences radioélectriques (RF) CNR-102 de l' IC.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
-
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
-
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numerique de la classe B est conforme a la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
CAUTION! Electrical shock can result from removal of the receiver cover. Refer servicing
to qualied service personnel. No userserviceable parts inside. Do not expose to rain or
moisture. The circuits inside the receiver and transmitter have been precisely adjusted
for optimum performance and compliance with federal regulations. Do not attempt to
open the receiver or transmitter. To do so will void the warranty, and may cause improper
operation.
Notice to individuals
Any source of RF (radio frequency) energy may interfere with normal functioning of the
implanted device. All wireless microphones have low-power transmitters (less than 0.05
inches away. However, since a “body-pack” mic transmitter typically is placed against the
body, we suggest attaching it at the belt, rather than in a shirt pocket where it may be
immediately adjacent to the medical device. Note also that any medical-device disruption
will cease when the RF transmitting source is turned off. Please contact your physician or
medical-device provider if you have any questions, or experience any problems with the
use of this or any other RF equipment.

Each System 10 professional digital wireless system includes a
receiver and either a body-pack transmitter or a handheld microphone/
transmitter. ATW-1101 UniPak
®
body-pack transmitter systems include
models pre-packaged with either an AT-GcW guitar cable (/G), a
PRO 8HEcW headworn microphone (/H), a PRO 92cW headworn
microphone (/H92), a PRO 92cW-TH headworn microphone (/H92TH), or an MT830cW lavalier mic (/L) for particular applications. All A-T
Wireless Essentials® microphones and cables, available separately, are
pre-terminated for use with any ATW-1101 system.
Because System 10 packaging is designed to hold all versions
of the system, some compartments in the carton may be intentionally
left empty.
The ATW-R1100 receiver includes a switching power supply that
automatically adapts to changes in mains voltage.
The versatile ATW-T1001 UniPak® body-pack transmitter has both
a high-impedance input for instruments, and a low-impedance input
with bias connection for use with dynamic and electret condenser
microphones. The ATW-T1002 handheld transmitter features a
unidirectional dynamic microphone element.
Both the body-pack and handheld transmitters use internal AA batteries
and have Power/Mute switches and input Trim (level) adjustments.
Receiver Installation
Location
For best operation the receiver should be at least 3' (1 m) above the
ground and at least 3' (1 m) away from a wall or metal surface to
sources such as other digital equipment, microwave ovens, as well as
away from large metal objects. Keep System 10 receiver 30' (9 m)
away from wireless access points. In multi-channel systems, position
receivers at least 3' (1 m) apart and keep operating transmitters at least
6' (2 m) from the receivers to help assure maximum RF performance.
Output Connection
There are two audio outputs on the back panel: balanced XLR-type
output and unbalanced ¼" TRS phone jack. Use shielded audio cable for
the connection between the receiver and the mixer. If the input of the
mixer is a ¼" jack, connect a cable from the ¼" unbalanced audio output
on the back of the receiver housing to the mixer. If the input of the
mixer is an XLR-type input, connect a cable from the balanced XLR-type
audio output on the back panel to the mixer.
Power Connection
Connect the DC plug on the included AC power adapter to the DC
power input on the back of the receiver. Secure the cord over the cord
hook on the back of the receiver, to keep the plug from being detached
by an accidental tug on the cord. Then plug the adapter into a standard
120 Volt 60 Hz or 230 Volt 50 Hz (depending on global location) AC
power outlet.
(Note that the receiver has no power Off/On switch. The receiver will be
energized whenever the power adapter is connected and plugged into
the AC outlet. Unplug the power supply from the AC outlet when the
system is not in use — both for safety, and to conserve energy.)
Antennas
Rotate the permanently attached antennas in the shape of a “V” (both
45° from vertical) for best reception.
