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 used in other systems.
The ATW-T1001, ATW-T1002 and ATW-RU13 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 person’s body.
Le ATW-T1001, ATW-T1002 et ATW-RU13 conformes 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 l’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.
Note: The ATW-RC13 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 chassis cover. Refer
servicing to qualied service personnel. No userserviceable parts inside. Do not expose
to rain or moisture. The circuits inside the chassis, receivers and transmitters have been
precisely adjusted for optimum performance and compliance with federal regulations. Do not
attempt to open the chassis, receivers or transmitters. To do so will void the warranty, and
may cause improper operation.
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 difculty, 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 System 10 PRO Rack-Mount
digital wireless system. You have joined thousands of other satised
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 PRO Rack-Mount is a digital wireless
system designed to provide rock-solid performance along with easy
setup and clear, natural sound quality. Featuring a dual-receiver chassis
and remote-mount receiver unit capability, System 10 PRO Rack-Mount
is available in various handheld and body-pack congurations. Operating
in the 2.4 GHz range, far from TV and DTV interference, System 10
PRO Rack-Mount offers extremely easy operation and instantaneous
channel selection. Up to ten 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 multi-path interference.
Finally, Space Diversity uses two antennas on each transmitter and
receiver to maximize signal integrity.
Each conguration of the System 10 PRO digital wireless system
includes a rack-mountable receiver chassis with two receiver unit
docks. Depending on the conguration, the system will also include
one or two receiver units that may be docked in the chassis or
mounted remotely, and one or two transmitters of either the handheld
microphone or body-pack style (or one of each). Some congurations
also include one or two lavalier mics that attach to the body-pack
transmitters. Up to ve chassis (10 receiver units) can be linked with the
included RJ12 cable to allow for simultaneous use of all receivers and
increased stability of the multi-channel 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-R1300 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.
System 10 PRO Installation and Operation

Installation
Receiver Unit Location
For best operation, position receiver unit so it is off the oor, in line of
sight of transmitter and away from any large obstructions. Keep the
receiver unit away from noise sources such as other digital wireless
equipment, microwave ovens, as well as away from large metal objects.
Keep System 10 receivers 30' (9 m) away from wireless access points.
Output Connection
The ATW-R1300 is equipped with two audio outputs for each receiver:
a balanced XLR-type output and an 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 chassis 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 of the chassis 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 chassis. Secure the cord over
