The Power Supply and basic Battery Management.
The power supply of Dynasty 1000 system comes from the two pieces of 12V /
4.5 AH built-in rechargeable batteries ( maintenance free Lead Acid type, which has no memory effect ) . An understanding and knowledge of rechargeable battery is imperative in the operation of the portable sound system as it helps to give a trouble-free operation of this system.
After unpacking the unit for the first time, please charge the rechargeable batteries in the system first for at least 10 hours before any operation. This is a very important procedure that user MUST undertake in order to get the longest life span out of the batteries. Failure to follow this proper battery management instruction may cause the user end up paying for new batteries.
The rechargeable batteries were fully charged in the factory before shipment. However, the unit you have just unpacked could have been several months old and the built-in lead acid rechargeable batteries might have been discharged or drained. This is analogue of car which has been left unused for months and the restart is impossible due to flat battery. It is thus imperative that a full charge is absolute necessary for a new system or system left unused for several months.
To charge the battery, simply plug in the AC supply and the charging process will start automatically and the battery status indicator ( 16 ) will flash. When permanent Green light appears, it means the batteries are fully charged. Normal operation could now be resumed. When the charging indicator ( 16 ) lights up in RED, it means battery is weak and charging is required. In an urgent case when the system must be used while the system is still under charging, for this system it is still possible as the AC power supply is designed such that it also provide the power for the system while charging the batteries but this could only be done when the charging process has started for at about 5 minutes and some minimum energy has been stored in the batteries.

Operating the Wireless Microphone System.
To use the First wireless system, switch on the receiver module power supply switch WM1(4) . Switch on the corresponding matching transmitter or handheld microphone ( please refer to the operating instruction of the individual transmitter ). When RF signal is being received by the receiver, the receiver RF signal indicator 1 ( 2 ) will light up. Rotate the control WM1 ( 4 ) and MASTER volume control ( 10 ) clockwise to increase the volume. When voice is spoken into the microphone, amplified sound should be heard over the built-in speaker.
This instruction is for system which is equipped with two wireless receiver modules, To use the Second wireless system, switch on the receiver module power supply switch WM2 ( 5 ). Switch on the corresponding matching transmitter or handheld microphone. When RF signal is being received by the receiver, the receiver RF signal indicator 2 ( 3 ) will light up. Rotate the WM 2 control ( 5 ) and MASTER volume control ( 10 ) clockwise to increase the level. When voice is spoken into the microphone, amplified sound should be heard over the built-in speaker.
Operating the Wired / Cable Microphone
To use the wired microphone, simply plug in the wired microphone connector into the XLR / Phone jack combo connector ( 1 ) . This unique connector accept either XLR or 1/4 Phone Jack male connector. Rotate the MIC In volume control ( 11 ) and MASTER Volume control ( 10 ) clockwise to increase the volume. When voice is spoken into the wired microphone, amplified sound should be heard over the built-in or external speaker.
To use a second wired microphone, simply plug in the wired microphone cable connector into LINE IN ( 6 ). Rotate the volume control ( 6 ) and MASTER volume control clockwise to increase the volume. When voice is spoken into the wired microphone, amplified sound should be heard over the built-in or external speaker.
Both wired and wireless microphone could be used simultaneously as there is a built-in mixer to mix both input signals.
When all the levels are set, simply use the MASTER volume control ( 10 ) as main control.
Function of Speaker out
There are two types of Speaker out jack.
Speaker out ( unswitched ) (18 ) When an external speaker is connected to this output, both the internal speaker of and the external speaker will have sound.

Add on a second receiver module
This instruction is for a system which is delivered without the 2nd receiver module and you need to add on the 2nd module.
First, unscrew and remove the cover of the RECEIVER panel. Push in the 2nd module to the right hand slot mark WM2. Before inserting this module, please verify that :
1.The 2nd module MUST be of the same frequency band ( VHF or UHF ) as the 1st module. The pre-installed antenna of the 2nd module is of the same band as that of the 1st module. Plugging in a 2nd module of a different band will severely affect the performance due to unmatched antenna !
2.The frequency of the 2nd module MUST be from the non-interference list recommended
by Chiayo.
3.It is advisable to plug in the same type of receiver as the 1st one to get the same performance. This is to say that if the 1st module is using a diversity receiver, it is
nd
advisable that the 2 module should use a diversity receiver vice versa.
Simple DIY Trouble-shootings:
1. No sound when one speaks to the wireless microphone
Please verify the followings :
1.1 Main power switch should be ON. When no light appear, it means that the batter y is
weak. Please plug in the AC cable to charge the battery.
1.2 WM1 ( 4 ) should be switched on. When two wireless microphones are used, both
WM1 (4) and WM2 ( 5 ) should be switched on. When this is done, please verify that the MASTER volume control ( 10 ) is been used to adjust to the desired volume.
1.3 Wireless microphone should be put to ON and verify that the battery is O.K. ( please
refer to wireless microphone operating manual ) and observe the RF signal received on the RF indicator ( 2 ) or ( 3 ).
1.4 Please verify that the frequency on the wireless microphone and the corresponding
built-in wireless receiver module are exactly the same.
2. No sound when CD player or Cassette Recorder is used.
2.1 Main power switch should be ON. When no light appear, it means that the batter y is
weak. Please plug in the AC cable to charge the battery.

Before operation, please check and make sure that transmitter & receiver are of matching frequency or frequency group (for PLL version). For PLL version, further verify that the channel selected at both ends are of the same.
To switch on the microphone, put the switch to "ON" position. The green LED indicator will light on indicates that battery is fresh. When RED LED light on indicates that battery is weak, thus a replacement is necessary.
For best result, alkaline battery is recommended. Please remove the battery if the transmitter is not to be used for a longer period.
When necessary, mic capsule could be replaced by pulling out and plugging in the new one, either dynamic or condenser.
For close mouth singing or speaking, put the sensitivity switch to N (Normal) and for tripod mouth application, where the speaker stands at a distance away, put the sensitivity switch to H (High). Be careful to put back the sensitivity switch to N for close mouth singing as H (High) sensitivity for close mouth application might cause distortion.
When holding the handheld mic, please do not hold the antenna part of it as this might severely affect the efficiency of the transmission range.

Belt-Pack Transmitter
Four different transmitters ( see table below ) are sharing this operating manual, please go through it thoroughly before operation.
The basic operations of all the above transmitters are almost the same. However, sometimes they use different connectors to suit different requirements.
Page 19
Installation of batteries
This transmitter uses 3 pieces of " A A " size batteries (Alkaline battery is recommended ). To install or remove the batteries, press the release buttons at the edges of the transmitter to open or close the cover as illustrated ( Fig.2 ). When installing the batteries with the cover open toward you, the cover might block your hand. It is thus recommended that while inserting or removing the batteries you should hold the transmitter in such a way that the cover open a way from you. ( Fig.3 )
Installation of Belt-clip
This specially designed detachable belt-clip allows the user to wear the transmitter with antenna pointing upward or downward as illustrated. To wear the transmitter with the transmitter pointing upward, install the belt-clip as in Fig.4. To wear the transmitter with the antenna pointing downward, please install the belt-clip as in Fig,5.

Installation of Lavalier / Headset microphones or
instrument
inputs.
Depending on customer requirements, Lavalier / Headset microphone or instrument inputs could be connected to the transmitter via the audio input connector. User is free to choose the various input sources but is advised to take note that connector used must be compatible to each other. The pin configurations of various connectors are as follow ( Fig.6 & 7 & 8 ).
Page 21
Installation of cable restraint
To prevent contact noise caused by constant tension applied to the connector,, a cable restraint is designed such that tension is totally reduced when it is properly used ( see Fig.9 ).
When the audio cable go through the cable restraint, it could prevent sweat from going diectly into the electronic board via the connector. This is another advantage of the cable restraint.

Page 22
Line Control
This is a Chiayo unique Line Control. The purpose of the L ine Control is to control :
Max. gain before feedback Remote control of the Gain
There is another advantage of the Line Control as it could serve as an adapter between different Lavalier / Headset and connectors as illustrated below. ( Fig.11 )
The Line Control is designed such that when Max. Gain before feedback is achieved, a disable switch could lock out the function of the Line Control to prevent accidental adjustment of the control. (Fig.10 )
Page 23
Caution and tips on how to obtain the best results.
1.Before inserting the batteries, please make sure that they are inserted according to the correct polarity.
2.For PLL 16 frequencies agile version, before operation please make sure that the
corresponding receiver MUST have the same frequency group and channel number as the transmitter.
3.For fixed frequency version, before operation please make sure that corresponding receiver MUST have the same frequency as the transmitter.
4.Before making any channel change, please switch off the power supply. The synthesized
program works in such a way that a change of channel will only take place after a power off and on action. Other wise, the previosly selected frequency will stay unchanged.
5.After making a channel change, please make sure that the corresponding change is made on the matching receiver also. To be exact, changes MUST be made at both the transmitter and receiver.
6.The audio cable of M-200 and SM-216 also serve as antenna. The length of the cable is cut according to the specific frequency range. Do not alter the length or mix around the cable of different transmitters. The use of wrong audio cable will affect the antenna efficiency of the transmitter!
7.Use only brand new Alkaline batteries. Do not use " general purpose " batteries. When batteries are weak, replace the three batteries altogether at the same time. Do not mix and use new and old batteries to gether.
8.Position the receiver such that it has the least possible obstructions between it and the
transmitter. Line of sight is best!
9.The transmitter and the receiver should be as close as possible but not less than 1m..
10.A receiver cannot receive signals from two or more transmitters
simultaneously.
11.Turn the transmitter off when it is not in use. Remove the batteries if it is not to be
used for a period of time.
Input Level Gain Control Adjustment
Low impedance ( Lo-Z ) " MT" & high impedance ( Hi-Z ) " GT" gain controls are situated inside the transmitter as shown in Fig 10. Gain controls are adjustment ports that enable you to use microphones of differing output levels and Guitar or instruments with Hi-Z output. To adjust microphone ( Lo-Z ) input levels, turn the " MT" control and to adjust the Guitar or instrument ( Hi-Z ) input, adjust the " GT" gain control to set the transmitter's desired audio input level.
