The REHEARSAL function detects a maximum of six dropouts and records the time each dropout occurred, the minimum eld strength at each antenna, and the maximum audio level. You can view the list of results after the recording has stopped.

1. From the “RHSL” screen on the receiver, select “START” to start the

ENGLISH

recording.

2. Move the transmitter around the area where you will use the system to check the area for “dead spots”, i.e., places where the eld strength seems to drop and reception deteriorates.

3. Play a few bars on your instrument (the louder the better).

4. You can stop the recording at any time by pressing l briey.

Possible indications:

“D1”: The recording has been completed, the display indicates

dropout no. 1.

“MIN RF”: The recording has been completed, no dropout has

been detected. The display indicates the minimum RF level measured.

“OVFL”: The recording has been stopped automatically because

six dropouts have been detected already or because the available time (16 minutes) has elapsed.

• To retrieve the other results press t or u briey. Dropouts are indicated like this (Example1):

• If the receiver nds no clean frequency, check your antenna setup (cable lengths, booster, power splitter, system wiring).

• If this is correct and there is still a stable RF noise oor you can try to increase the squelch threshold slowly from -100 dBm to -86 dBm to avoid noise when the RF signal is weak. Make sure never to set the squelch threshold any higher than absolutely necessary. The adjustable squelch will mute the receiver if the received signal is too weak so the related noise or the self-noise of the receiver will not become audible while the transmitter is o the air.

The higher the squelch threshold (-86 dB = max., -100 dB

= min.), the lower the sensitivity of the receiver and thus

the usable range between transmitter and receiver.

Pilot Tone

As long as this function is active, the received signal contains a continuous signal at a predened frequency (a pilot tone). If the receiver detects no pilot tone, the receiver’s audio output will be muted.

Factory Reset

• To reset all parameters to their factory default settings, use the “FACTORY RESET” screen.

Example 1: Dropout no. 1 occurred after 124 seconds.

• The rst s torage locations are assigned to dropouts, the last two for the lowest RF level and highest audio level measured (Examples 2 and 3).

Example 2: Minimum RF level: -85 dB

Example 3: Maximum audio level: -5 dB

• The last item in the result list is followed (the rst item preceded) by the “EXIT” option.

• You can avoid dropouts by placing the receiver or antennas in different positions.

• If the RF bar is o and the RF MUTE LED is red, no signal is being received or the squelch threshold is too high.

Info

The INFO screen lets you call up information about your receiver:

- ”V1.1”: rmware version

- “B 4--.50”: frequency band

- “PV 1.0”: Preset version

- “INTRO”: This screen allows you to edit the name displayed upon

switching power to the receiver ON.

Conexión de las antenas

Las antenas de ¼ de onda suministradas pueden montarse rápida y fácilmente y son aptas para aplicaciones en las que se dispone de un ángulo visual directo entre el transmisor y la antena del receptor y donde desee emplearse un sistema inalámbricos sin necesidad de un arduo trabajo de instalación.

Antenas remotas

• Debe utilizar antenas de montaje remoto en el caso de que la posición del receptor no permita una buena recepción.:

- Conecte las antenas remotas en los conectores BNC situados en la parte posterior del receptor

ESPAÑOL

- Utilice cables RG58 ó RG213 para conectar las antenas.

Cable de montaje frontal para antena

• Utilice el cable de extensión BNC (Front Mount Antenna Rack Mount Kit P/N 7704720000) para montar las antenas de ¼ de onda en el panel frontal.

Ubicación del receptor

• El conmutador del nivel de salida permite adaptar el nivel de la salida balanceada (BALANCED) a la sensibilidad de entrada del aparato conectado.

• Si se ha conectado el receptor a una entrada de micrófono, seleccione la posición “-30 dB”. De esta forma, el nivel de salida se reducirá 30 dB para evitar que se produzca sobremodulación en la entrada.

• El nivel de la salida no balanceada (UNBALANCED) no se puede ajustar.

Conexión del receptor a la red

i Véase Fig. 9 en la página iii.

1. ATENCIÓN: Verique que la tensión de alimentación indicada

en el alimentador de red suministrado sea la misma que la disponible en el lugar en el que se usará el receptor. Si usa el alimentador de red con una tensión de alimentación diferente, puede causar daños al equipo.

2. Conecte el cable de alimentación (1) del alimentador de red suministrado al conector hembra DC IN (2) en la parte trasera del receptor y je el conector macho (3) atornillándolo.

3. Enchufe el adaptador de red en un tomacorriente.

La señal directa del transmisor puede ser debilitada o apagada por reexiones en partes metálicas, paredes, techos, etc., o por la presencia de músicos u otras personas.

Por lo tanto, debe colocar el receptor o las antenas remotas de la siguiente manera:

• Coloque el receptor/las antenas siempre cerca del área de actuación (escenario), pero asegúrese de que la distancia entre el receptor/las antenas y el transmisor sea de 3 metros como mínimo.

• El contacto visual entre el transmisor y el receptor/las antenas es el requisito previo para la óptima recepción.

• Coloque el receptor/las antenas a más de 1,5 metros de distancia de grandes objetos metálicos, paredes, estructuras del escenario, techos, etc.

• El receptor puede ser usado en forma independiente o ser instalado en un bastidor de 19”.

Conexión del receptor a un

mezclador o amplificador

Puede conectar la salida XLR y la clavija jack de 6,3 mm en cualquier momento. A través del menú AUDIO, es posible ajustar el nivel de salida tal y como sea necesario.

• Conecte la salida de audio en la entrada deseada:

- Salida XLR -> cable XLR -> entrada XLR

- Clavija jack de 6,3 mm -> cable jack -> entrada jack de 6,3 mm

Conmutador del nivel de salida

El receptor está electrónicamente bloqueado con el n de que no pueda realizar ajustes inintencionados. En la pantalla se muestra el símbolo “LOCK”.

• Para entrar en el modo SETUP, pulse y mantenga pulsado el control l hasta que el símbolo “LOCK” desaparezca.

Transmisor de bolsillo

Introducir la pila

i Véase Fig. 5 en las páginas iv.

1. Abra la tapa del compartimiento de pilas (1).

2. Introduzca la pila suminstrada (2) siguiendo los correspondientes símbolos en el compartimiento de pilas. Si coloca mal la pila, el transmisor no recibe corriente.

3. Cierre la tapa del compartimiento de pilas (1).

• En lugar de la pila suminstradas puede introducir también una ppila de litio (FR6) ó un acumulador, corriente en el comercio, de 1,2 V, NiMH (HR6), ≥2100 mAh, tamaño AA.

Conectar un instrumento

Utilice sólo el cable de instrumento ITC3 que se incluye con transmisor bolsillo.

Rogamos tener presente que Fender no puede garan-

tizar un funcionamiento impecable del transmisor de

bolsillo con productos de otros fabricantes y que, por lo tanto, los posibles daños causados por el funcionamiento con esos productos de otros fabricantes quedarán excluidos de la prestación de garantía.

i Véase Fig. 12 en la página iv.

• Conecte el conector mini-XLR (1), que se encuentra en el cable para instrumento ITC3 (2) a la toma de la entrada audio (3) del transmisor de bolsillo.

3. INDICACIONES DE MANEJO

Bloquear el interruptor ON-MUTE/PRG-OFF

i Véase Fig. 17 en la página v.

1. Enchufe la clavija terminal (3) suministrada a la toma REMOTE MUTE (2) del transmisor de bolsillo. El interruptor ON-MUTE/PRGOFF del transmisor de bolsillo queda bloqueado electrónicamente. El transmisor ya no se puede poner en mudo involuntariamente.

2. Para activar otra vez el interruptor ON-MUTE/PRG-OFF desenchufe la clavija terminal (3) de la toma REMOTE MUTE (2).

Ajuste de la sensibilidad

i Véase Fig. 12 en la página iv.

1. (4) Abra el compartimiento de pilas del transmisor de bolsillo.

2. Toque el instrumento (lo más fuerte posible).

3. (6) Con el destornillador integrado (6) en la tapa de la caja de pilas (5), ajuste el regulador de sensiblidad (7) de tal forma que la parte audio del transmisor quede modulada en forma óptima (el LED AF OK verde está ilumindado, la barra audio indica un máx. de 0 dB).

4. (7) Cierre el compartimiento de pilas.

Modo silencio

Recomendamos ajustar la frecuencia portadora únicamente en el modo silencio (RF OFF).

• Para activar el modo silencio, pulse y mantenga pulsado el interruptor MUTE mientras conecta el transmisor. Se trata de la única manera de asegurar que no se va a conectar en directo a una frecuencia que no está asignada o coordinada y de evitar el riesgo de interferencia con otros dispositivos RF o sistemas inalámbricos.
