3. Environmental Filter
The Environment filter combines a downward expander with a dynamic high pass filter.
It should be used to minimize handling noise and stage vibrations that are not intended
2•2
to be a part of your program material. When the microphone falls below a fixed threshold
the filter backs down the overall level by about 6 dB while simultaneously rolling off
frequencies below 200 Hz. “Norm” is the default setting for musical performance. The
filter may be bypassed entirely by selecting “off”, or may be increased by selecting “Talk”
which is more appropriate for speech applications of the system.
Front Panel LED Ladders
The XD-V70 receiver features an array of LED ladders so that critical performance
elements can be viewed when you are too far away to read the LCD screen.
Audio
This row shows the relative strength of the audio output. The more lights the stronger
the signal at the output connector. This ladder will be off when the system is muted. It
is normal in operation for these LEDs to move around between a single LED to all five
being on.
Mute
A red LED will signal that the mute switch has been engaged on the transmitter and
output to the rear panel output jacks will be turned off.
Battery
Each LED lit represents approximately 1.5 hours of remaining battery life when green. The
bottom LED will light red when approximately two hours of operating time or less remain,
and will flash red when approximately .5 hour remains. For more detailed information on
remaining batter life, please read the LCD screens on the transmitter or receiver.
XD-V70 Receiver
RF
These LEDs indicate Radio Frequency signal strength. When all five LEDs are lit green
the receiver is receiving full signal. As signal strength is diminished, LEDs will begin to
turn off. If you experience fewer than all five LEDs, one or more of the following steps
should be attempted:
• Antenna placement should be moved closer to transmitter
• Move transmitter closer to receiver
• Provide a clearer line of sight between transmitter and receiver
• Place transmitter into high power mode
• Utilize external antennas when receiver and transmitter positioning cannot be
improved
When no transmitter is turned on, these LEDs may light red indicating that there is some
non-Line 6 RF in the area. This is usually not a concern. When an XD-V transmitter
is turned on the receiver will lock to it and disregard the RF noise because of DCL™
technology.
Antenna Management
1. External Antennas
The XD-V70 system must be operated with external antennas. The supplied “rubber
duckie” antennas should be connected to the BNC connectors marked “Antenna A”
and “Antenna B” before operating. The user may wish to front mount the antennas by
installing the supplied BNC bulkhead connectors in the long rack ear when installing in
a rack. Connect the supplied antenna cables from the BNC terminals to the “Antenna
A” and “Antenna B” connectors on the rear panel. Optional Line 6 P180 or P360 paddle
antennas may be used in place of the standard “rubber ducky” antennas for increased
performance or when the receiver cannot be physically placed in a location within range
of the transmitter. See the Paddle antenna owner’s manuals for details.
2•3
2. Looping – Antenna Distribution System
If you are operating more than one system you may conveniently connect multiple receivers
to a single pair of antennas using XD-V70’s built-in antenna distribution system. After
attaching antennas to the primary receiver, simply use the supplied cables and connect
from the BNC connector marked “A Out” to the “Antenna A” input of the second unit.
Similarly, connect from the “B Out” on the primary unit to the “Antenna B” input on the
second receiver. You may continue this process connecting up to 12 systems total. For
XD-V70 Receiver
best results, no more than 6 receivers should be connected to a pair of antennas.The last
receiver in the chain must be terminated by connecting the supplied “BNC terminators”
to the last “A & B Outs”. It is highly recommended to use a 50 ohm low leakage type of
antenna cable such as LMR-195 for these connections (such as the ones supplied with the
2•4
XDV-70).
3. Terminating
The supplied “BNC terminators” should be installed on any unused “A & B Outs” for
maximum performance.
Audio Outputs
The XD-V70 receiver is equipped with both a balanced three pin XLR connector and
an unbalanced ¼” output. These are “mic level” and are basically “unity” compared to
the input microphone used. Treat the XLR connector just the way you would treat the
output jack of a wired microphone. The ¼” is convenient should you wish to plug into an
instrument amplifier or an unbalanced input on a mixer.
As different mic models are selected on the handheld transmitter the output level will
vary just as it would if you were to “hot-swap” the wired versions of these mics .

Rack Mounting
XD-V70 systems include all necessary hardware to make rack mounting simple. The unit
can be setup as either left or right sided to make mounting in your rack convenient. A
“long” and a “short” rack ear are screwed to the sides of a single receiver and fit in the
dovetail slots.
A “dovetail key” is provided to couple two receivers into a single rack pair. Slide the
dovetail key into a side channel of receiver one from the rear towards the front. Then
slide the second receiver to the other edge of the dovetail key and slide until the two front
surfaces meet. A small tap with a mallet will seat the dovetail key into place flush with
the rear panel. Install the “short” rack ear that was supplied with each receiver into the
outside slots and you are ready to bolt the pair into a rack.
When additional “pairs” are constructed, the un-used dovetail keys can be used in the top
and bottoms between the pairs locking them together into a single block.
Power Supplies
The XD-V70 is supplied with the Line 6 DC-1G power supply. The supply can be used
with any AC input voltage from 90-240VAC.

MUTESELECT
The Line 6 XD-V70 handheld transmitter is constructed with a metal body and mic
capsule and features a polycarbonate battery cover. It features six mic models based on
some of the world’s leading wired dynamic microphones, as well as the L6-DC7 Line 6
model. In addition, the mic capsule is interchangeable with many other popular models.
An LCD screen provides real time performance data, and a pair of recessed buttons allow
users to edit performance parameters while protecting from unintentional button pushes.
To turn on the microphone, press and hold the “POWER/MUTE” button for two seconds.
The display light up, indicating that the unit is on. To turn the transmitter off, hold the
“POWER/MUTE” button for more than two seconds. The display will momentarily say
“OFF”, and the unit will power down.
3•1
The buttons on the microphone are intentionally recessed sufficiently to avoid the
possibility of them accidentally being pressed while in normal use. As a result, it will
require deliberate force downward into the button cavities in order to make the buttons
function.

pushed, or no further action occurs for several seconds causing the edit time out to return
the user to the main screen.
RF Power (“Power”)
The second push to the “SELECT” button will advance the user to the Transmit Power
high/low select page. If the anticipated range usage falls short of about 100 feet, it is
recommended to switch the Tx power range to “low” as it will conserve battery life and
reduce RF interference to other devices. If sufficient range is not possible in low power
mode then the user should switch up to high power mode. Press the “POWER/MUTE”

advances the user to the next character to the right. This name will be transmitted to the
receiver, where it will be displayed in the receiver’s LCD window allowing easy match-up
of transmitter to receiver. When the name feature is off, the receiver will show the model
name of the transmitter (e.g., “THH12” for the handheld microphone).
Exit Edit Mode
Pressing and holding the “SELECT” button stores the performed edits into the microphone’s
memory. The edits are remembered when powering down and then turning back on, and
when the batteries are replaced. They are also remembered should the batteries die during
a performance. If no actions are performed for 10 seconds, “time out” will occur and the
transmitter will automatically exit edit mode (and save any edits that had been made).
Mute Function
While not in Edit Mode, press the “POWER/MUTE” button for approximately one second
to initiate the mute function. Press again to return to active mode. The LCD will remain
illuminated while in Mute mode.

Recommendations for best performance
• Maintain a clear line of sight between the transmitter and receiver antennas.
Typically the receiver antennas should be above head level. Avoid placing the
receiver in the bottom of the rack unless remote antennas are employed.
• Avoid placing the receiver behind walls. When this is necessary the receiver’s
antennas should be remotely located as to be in sight of the transmitter.
• Avoid placing the receiver in close proximity to RF generating equipment including
computers, wireless access points and microwave ovens (see “near/far” below).
• Point the antennas up and 45 degrees from vertical while avoiding touching metal
objects like rack or rack rails.
• Avoid blocking antennas in the transmitters. Do not “cup” the bottom of the
handheld transmitter. Avoid placing the beltpack transmitter in pockets.
Wi-fi
Because Wi-Fi and Line 6 2.4GHz wireless products share the same bandwidth, some users
may experience a slowing down of their Wi-Fi capabilities when using microphone or
instrument transmitters near computers. This is an example of a near/far interference
problem. If your Line 6 transmitter gets within 6 feet of your laptop, you may witness this
situation especially if your Wi-Fi access point is some distance away. Typically, simply
moving your Line 6 transmitter farther away from your computer will remedy the situation.
Switching your transmitters to the “low power” setting will aid in mitigating the problem
as well. Users in Europe or Japan should switch their Wi-Fi channels to 12, 13 or 14 as
Line 6 2.4GHz systems operate below the frequency of these channels.
5•1
Near / Far
The Near/Far interference problem is common to most radio systems and happens when a
strong signal captures a receiver making it difficult or impossible for the receiver to decode
the weaker signal.
Imagine having a conversation in a quiet room with a person 20 feet away from you. It
is likely that you can carry on a conversation with normal voice levels. Now if you move
to a noisy environment, with lots of other voices right around your ears, it may be very
difficult for the conversation to continue with your long distance friend without the both
of you shouting.
Advanced Applications
A similar circumstance occurs with radios, and since the long distance transmitter is
incapable of increasing its power output, it is possible for a very near transmitter may
interfere with it.
In the real world, this is rarely an unmanageable problem. You should avoid being closer
than 3 feet to a receiver that is not on your channel if the intended transmitter is more
than 50 feet from this receiver. If this is a regular requirement, you will need to remote
your antennas.
Cell Phone Interference
The use of cell phones should be avoided when very close to XD-V70 transmitters. They
will not cause audio interference in the RF section of XD-V wireless systems, but these
cell phones emit a signal that can penetrate input cables and mic elements themselves,
thereby creating audio that becomes part of your signal. The result will leave most users
5•2
with familiar “brap-ap-ap” buzz. The only certain cure is to leave them completely shut
off or to move them sufficiently away from your XD-V systems.
Batteries
Line 6 2.4GHz wireless transmitters have a circuit that measures the actual real-time voltage
of the installed batteries and transmits that data to the battery meters in the receivers.
The battery meters are very accurate when they have been running continuously from
the time new batteries were installed in the transmitter and the transmitter power has
not been cycled on and off. However, due to the chemical nature of Alkaline batteries,
when they have been shut off the voltage begins to “rebound “ and the voltage actually
increases compared to its value at shutoff. This rebound effect does not last long and the
voltage reverts to true self over twenty minutes or so. For this reason when you first turn
on a Transmitter that has been run but allowed to rest, the meter will give a higher reading
that quickly falls over the first few minutes. This is normal behavior for Alkaline batteries.
Rechargeable batteries may be used in XD-V70 transmitters. NiMH are recommended
in the 2400-2800 mAh range. It is essential that the charger and charge rate correspond
to the actual batteries used. Make certain that any batteries selected fit properly in the
transmitters as these batteries vary in maximum outside diameter. Do not charge these
batteries inside XD-V70 transmitters. The battery meters in the XD-V70 units are
calibrated for Alkaline battery discharge rates and will not be as accurate when using
rechargeable batteries. Carbon-zinc batteries are not recommended.
Advanced Appications
SAR
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, is a measure of the heating value of radiated RF energy
on human tissue. SAR evaluates the relative safety of low‐power transmitters in close
proximity to the human body or high‐power transmitters at greater distances. Line 6
XD-V wireless transmitters are not required to have SAR testing as they fall below the
24.49 mW power limit established by the FCC. Line 6 XD-V output power is 10mW in
“high” power mode and 3.3mW in “low” power mode.
