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 umerique 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 qualied 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.
Danger of explosion if battery is replaced incorrectly. If battery dies, send receiver to Audio-Technica or other qualied service center so battery can be replaced with same or equivalent type. Likewise, send damaged, inoperable receivers to Audio-Technica or other qualied service center for recycling—do not throw away receiver as its battery contains toxic materials.
Notice to individuals with implanted cardiac pacemakers or AICD devices: 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 watts output) which are unlikely to cause difculty, especially if they are at least a few 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.

Thank you for choosing an Audio-Technica professional wireless system. You have joined thousands of other satised customers who have chosen our products because of their quality, performance and reliability. This wireless microphone system is the successful result of years of design and manufacturing experience.
Audio-Technica’s System 10 Portable Camera-Mount is a digital wireless system designed to provide rock-solid performance along with easy setup and clear, natural sound quality. Featuring a compact design, System 10 Portable Camera-Mount is available in handheld, lavalier and body-pack congurations. Operating in the 2.4 GHz range, far from TV and DTV interference, System 10 Portable Camera-Mount offers extremely easy operation and instantaneous channel selection. Up to eight channels may be used together without any frequency coordination problems or group selection issues.
System 10 wireless ensures clear communications by providing three levels of diversity assurance: frequency, time, and space. Frequency Diversity sends the signal on two dynamically allocated frequencies for interference-free communication. Time Diversity sends the signal in multiple time slots to maximize immunity to multipath interference. Finally, Space Diversity uses two antennas on each transmitter and receiver to maximize signal integrity.
Each System 10 professional digital wireless system includes a receiver and camera shoe mount, and either a body-pack transmitter or a handheld microphone/transmitter.
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-R1700 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 high­impedance 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 minimize reections. Keep the receiver antennas away from noise sources such as other digital wireless 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
The ATW-R1700 has a single audio output jack that accepts the 3.5 mm (1/8") cable included in the package.
Use the Audio Output Selector Switch to choose between a balanced and an unbalanced dual mono signal.
The 3.5 mm (1/8") Headphone Monitor output works with mono or stereo headphones (the output sends a dual mono audio signal to stereo headphones). Use the Headphone Level Control to adjust the volume.
