Setup and Operation
Follow the directions below, as they pertain to your preferred operation mode. Before using the device, check the regulations regarding the frequency allocation in your country or region. Before plugging the unit in, always make sure that the power supply matches the product specification voltage.
Receiver Setup
01) Connect the supplied power adapter to the DC power connector (24) on the rear of the receiver.
02) Plug the power adapter into a power outlet. Use only the supplied power adapter to connect the
device.
03) Press and hold down the power button (16) for 2 seconds to turn the device on.
04) Point the antennas (20/25) away from each other in a 45° position as shown in Fig. 11. Avoid placing
the receiver antennas near metal surfaces or other obstructions. Make sure the antennas do not cross if stacking or rack-mounting receivers in a multiple-system setup.
Fig. 11
05) To connect the receiver to an amplifier either use an XLR to XLR cable, to connect via the receiver’s
3-pin XLR connector OUT (19), or a ¼ mono jack cable via the AF jack connector OUT (22).
06) Insert the batteries into the transmitter. See chapter: Inserting the Batteries, page 14.
07) Press and hold down the power button (03) for 2 seconds to turn the transmitter on.
08) Pair the transmitter with the receiver. See chapters 4. Scan and 5. Sync, page 18.
09) During use of the transmitter, the AF signal indicators will show the intensity of the incoming audio
signal.
10) Adjust the volume on the receiver and on the connected mixer or amplifier.
11) Mute the transmitter before turning it off, to prevent the occurrence of a popping sound.
12) Make sure you can always see a receiver antenna from the transmitter position. Keep the distance
from the transmitter to the receiver antenna as short as possible.
13) Perform a walk-through before performance or presentation to identify any dead spots. In case of
dead spots, adjust the location of the receiver. Should this not be sufficient, mark the dead spots in order to avoid them.

Connection Cables
Take care of your cables, always holding them by the connectors and avoiding knots and twists when coiling them: This gives the advantage of increasing their life and reliability. Periodically check your cables. A great number of problems (faulty contacts, ground hum, discharges, etc.) are caused entirely by using unsuitable or faulty cables.

Problem
Solution
No sound
Make sure the transmitter is on.
Make sure the batteries are inserted properly. If the
batteries are inserted properly, replace them with a set of new batteries.
Make sure the battery housing is clean.
No sound
Make sure the DC power adapter is plugged into the
appropriate power outlet and into the DC power connector IN (24) on the receiver. Make sure the AC electrical output works and supplies proper voltage.
No sound
Turn up the volume on the receiver and/or the transmitter
and/or the speaker.
Make sure the output connections between the receiver
and external equipment are in order.
No sound
Make sure that the transmitter and the receiver use the
same frequency.
Move the transmitter closer to the receiver.
Bursts of noise or other audible signals present
Adjust the squelch threshold.
Identify potential sources of interference (other RF sources)
and turn them off.
Momentary loss of sound as transmitter is moved around the performance area.
Reposition the receiver and perform a walk-through test
again. If audible drop-outs persist, mark the dead spots and avoid them during performance.
