CAUTIONS:

1. Some wireless microphone systems require a license. This depends on

the frequency of the system and the country in which it is to be used. It
is the responsibility of the user to establish if a license is required. As a
guide, for the UK and Europe, VHF radio microphones between

173.800 and 175.000 MHz, or UHF microphones between 863 MHz and
865 MHz do not need a license. This is for microphones working at
normal power (10mW ERP hand-held or 50mW ERP if body worn). All
other use on alternative frequencies needs a license. More information
on this can be found at : www.jfmg.co.uk/jfmgecom/default.aspx . If in
any doubt, users are advised to investigate the licensing requirements
for their region.

2. All operating instructions should be read before using this equipment.

3. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not open the unit. THERE ARE
NO USER REPLACEABLE PARTS INSIDE. Please refer servicing to a
qualified service technician.

4. Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or to a heat source such as a
radiator or stove.

5. Dust, dirt and debris can interfere with the performance of this unit. Make
an effort to keep the unit away from dusty, dirty environments, and cover
the unit when it is not in use. Dust it regularly with a soft, clean brush.

6. When moving this equipment, it should be placed in its original carton
and packaging. This will reduce the risk of damage during transit.

7. DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

8. DO NOT USE ANY SPRAY CLEANER OR LUBRICANT ON ANY

CONTROLS OR SWITCHES.

9. REMEMBER, ANY CHANGES MADE TO THE UNIT WITHOUT
AUTHORIZATION FROM GEMINI WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

FCC RULES AND REGULATIONS:

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1)This device may not cause harmful
interference and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Notice: The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.

Important note, to comply with the FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements, no change to the antenna or the device is permitted. Any
change to the antenna or the device could result in the device exceeding
the RF exposure requirements and void user’s authority to operate the device.

UF WIRELESS SYSTEMS:

The UF wireless systems are high quality audio products that provide
excellent performance under most operating conditions. The different

systems available all operate with UHF high band frequencies.

Frequency ranges: USA: 790-806 MHz, Europe 854-865 MHz. See
page 3 for frequency chart.

WIRELESS NOTES:

• Before setting up, make sure that the transmitter and receiver are tuned
to the same frequency.

• Do not use two transmitters in the same frequency. Use good quality
batteries to avoid the damage resulting from a defective leaking battery.

• Turn the volume control on the receiver to adjust receiver output level to
match input level requirements of an audio mixer or amplifier.

• While checking sound, move the transmitter around the area where you
use the system to look for dead spots. If you find any dead spot, change
the receiver position. If it does not work, avoid such places.

• To avoid interference, do not put the receiver too near metal object and
avoid obstructions between transmitter and receiver.

• Avoid the interference from TV, radio, other wireless appliances and etc.

FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONS:

UF RECEIVERS:

These stationary receivers are for use with our 64-channel selectable
transmitters. The receiver operates in UHF band frequency with PLL
synthesized control. Powered by 12V DC.

(1) POWER BUTTON: Push the POWER button to turn the receiver on & off.
(2) CHANNEL SELECTOR: 64 different selectable can be selected used by

rotating the selector(s) or knobs.

(2b) SET: Push the SET button to lock the selected group and channel.
(2c) GR/CH LED: These LED indicates the power is on, and display which

group & channel is on.

(3)POWER INDICATOR: The indicator LED lights when the receiver is ready to operate.
(4) RF LEVEL INDICATORS: These LED lights to indicate that signal is being received.

For the UF-1264 the RF LED show the diversity RF signal that is being used A or B.
For the UF-2064 the RF LEd display which MIc is being received MIC 1 or 2
For the UF-8264 the RF LED is a 5 level RF LEVEL meter that displays the
signal strength.

(5)LEVEL CONTROL: Rotary controls adjust the receiver’s output level

from the microphone to line level for matching the input sensitivity of the
mixer or amplifier.

(6)ANTENNA: Fixed-length UHF antenna permanently mounted either on

the front or on rear panel.

(7)

DC OUT : Connect the supplied cable to the receiver and the microphone,

and it takes around 10 hours to charge.

NOTE: THE UF-1064, UF1264, & UF2064 ARE THE ONLY MODELS THAT RECHARGE BATTERIES.

(8)UNBALANCED OUTPUT: Unbalanced 1/4” mono jack audio output

provides unbalanced low-impedance output

(9)BALANCED OUTPUT: 3-pin XLR connector provides balanced low-

impedance output

(10) SQUELCH ADJ.: The squelch adjusts the output level to prevent from

the external noise. Setting the squelch too high will reduce the range of
the system. Set the squelch to minimum before turning the receiver on.

(11) DC IN: Input connector for the supplied AC adapter.

FM-64 HANDHELD MICROPHONE:

The handheld microphone operates in UHF band frequency with PLL
synthesized control. UHF 64 preprogramed selectable frequencies to
avoid interference. Uni-directional dynamic or uni-directional electret
condenser capsules with different characters for various choices. Use

1.5V x 2 AA size rechargeable or regular batteries for low operating cost.

(1)GRILLE: Protects the microphone capsule and helps reduce breath

sounds and wind noise. The grille for the various microphone capsules
differ in appearance.

(2)LOW BATTERY LED: LED indicates battery status. Switching the power

to “ON”, the LED flashing once indicates that the transmitter has
sufficient power. If the LED stays on, it indicates that the battery has
insufficient power and should be changed soon. If the status LED fails to
flash, the battery is either dead or not positioned correctly, and you
should correct the positioning or change the battery.

(3)ON/OFF SWITCH: Turns transmitter power on and off.
(4)BATTERY COMPARTMENT: Insert two AA batteries into the

CHARGING CONNECTING DIAGRAM:

Connect the supplied DC cable to the receiver and the microphone, and it takes
around 10 hours to charge and the LED of transmitter is flashing all the time.

BASIC CONNECTIONS:

Connect the receiver output to the audio mixer or amplifier input, using a
standard audio cable with XLR connectors or 1/4” phone plugs. Never
use the balance & unbalanced outputs at the same time! This may
cause signal loss or increased noise.

To mount a receiver in a 19" standard rack by using 2 long L type metal
racks (L1).

SETTING UP:

Prior to setting up, check that the transmitter and receiver are tuned to
the same frequency. Two or above transmitters operating in the same
frequency can not be used at the same time and area, so please select
the different frequencies which can be used simultaneously at local area.

CONNECTING THE RECEIVER TO POWER:

• Point the antennas upward.

• Check that the voltage of the supplied AC adapter (AC110 or AC220)
conforms to the voltage available in local area. Using the wrong AC
adapter may cause irreparable damage to the unit.

• Plug the feeder cable of the supplied AC adapter into DC IN socket on
the receiver. Then plug the AC adapter into a power outlet.

CONNECTING THE RECEIVER TO AN AUDIO MIXER
OR AN AMPLIFIER:

In order to make sure the sound quality and avoid distortion, please
adjust the volume level according to following instructions.
