Product Overview
ACT-82a is MIPRO introduced industry-leading professional digital wireless microphone system. Each
design feature and function is contemporary top technology, and much appreciated by professional
audio experts in recognition of its excellent performance, especially through the latest MU-89 true
condenser microphone capsule makes the sound quality even perfect. Therefore, it is the first choice for
professional wireless microphone systems.
Digital wireless microphone system introduces wireless microphones into a new era of digital sound
quality, and will cause a revolution in audio that the wireless sound quality can almost compare with the
cable transmission, thus digitalizing must be the future trend.
In response to the change of EU and US telecom regulations, we immediately launch the new wideband
ACT-82a digital wireless system, extending the bandwidth from 24MHz to 120MHz, which can completely
accommodate to the new telecom bandwidth of the United States with only one receiver, and two bands
can be used in Europe. The transmitter's bandwidth is also extended from 24MHz to 120MHz to match
the receiver's, and that is very convenient for the multi-channel usage.

MIPRO'S Proprietary "ACT" Function and Operation
What is ACT?
“ACT” stands for “Automatic Channel Targeting”. MIPRO developed and patented this innovative InfraRed
(IR) technology in 2001. MIPRO was the first manufacturer in the industry to automatically synchronise
the frequency selected on the receiver to any ACT handheld or bodypack transmitter in the same
frequency band.
ACT Benefits:
!
No manual frequency adjusting needed, unlike traditional transmitters.
!
Simple, fast and precise frequency setup without mechanical errors.
!
Once the frequency has been set, the data is written to memory in the transmitter.
This ensures that the transmitter frequency now stays with that transmitter. That is, of course, until
a change is required. By performing the “ACT” function again, the frequency can be re-programmed
to another Group/Channel as necessary.
ACT Set-Up
!
Ensure a receiver channel is set up, the transmitter battery is charged, and the transmitter is
powered ON.
!
Press and release the ACT button on the receiver to activate the ACT sync function. Once activated,
the words “ACT” and “Sync” will illuminate.
!
Move the ACT handheld or bodypack transmitter IR window to within 30cm (12”) of the IR port on
the receiver. The IR port on the receiver is located behind the “ACT” button itself and is indicated by
a round, dark red dot. The frequency will sync automatically.
!
When the frequencies have successfully synchronised between the receiver and transmitter the
illuminated “ACT” and “Sync” will disappear. The RF meter will now illuminate and show full RF
strength.

!
Balanced Output Switch: 4 levels of output gain are available: (10dB, 0dB,-6dB, -12dB) Select
the most appropriate output level to interface with your mixer or amplifier. If distortion is
experienced, adjust the level control to a lower setting until the desired output is attained.
!
Balanced Output: Using audio output cables with 3 pin "XLR" type connectors, connect one end
to the balanced output socket of the receiver, and the other end to the "MIC IN" input of the
12
mixer or amplifier, as shown in Figure 3. (The configuration of the 3-pin connector is as shown in
Figure 5.)
!
Electric Guitar Output: Using an XLR to 1/4” Jack type connector cable (use Pins 1 and 2 only)
connect to guitar input socket on amplifier. Make sure that the gain level is set at 0dB on both
receiver and transmitter.
Receiver Operating Tips
!
Prior to powering on the receiver, ensure all transmitters are turned off and the mixer's volume
control is set to minimum.
!
Normally, the RF meter level illuminates fully when a transmitter is powered on to indicate the
receiver is ready for operation. Once an audio signal is received from the transmitter, the AF (audio)
meter level will also illuminate based on signal level. If the meter or indicator does not indicate or
there is no audio output, the system may not be set up properly. Re-check that the transmitter has
fresh batteries and is turned on and the receiver and transmitter are on the same frequency. If not,
the transmitter will need to be set up via the ACT sync function.
!
The microphone output level in normal use should be adjusted at the amplifier or mixer. There is no
need to adjust output levels at the receiver itself once initial setup is completed.
!
The antenna inputs provide an 8-volt DC bias and are designed to work with MIPRO antenna boosters
and active antennas. If the connecting cable is longer than 10 metres (approx. 30'), it is advisable to
install an antenna booster to ensure optimum reception.
!
Antenna dividers and receivers must match the same frequency band (i.e. both should be marked
6B, 6C etc.)

transmitter each time an ACT function is synced successfully.
!
This means the last encrypted transmitter will work only with the encrypting receiver. It also means that previously
encrypted transmitters will not work with the encrypting receiver even though they are on the same frequency as there will
be no audio output. This method also ensures that another similar receiver cannot listen in to the encrypted transmitter.

!
When the words “ACT” and “Sync” on the receiver illuminate, do not press any button. ACT function
will stop and cancel automatically after about 10 seconds.
Instructions:
1. Ensure a receiver channel is set up (Group / Channel), the transmitter battery is charged and the
transmitter is powered ON.
2. Press the ACT button on the receiver to activate the ACT function. Once activated, the words ACT
and Sync will illuminate.
3. Bring the ACT handheld or bodypack transmitter within 30cm (12”) of the IR port on the receiver
(check your transmitter documentation to find out where the IR port is located on the transmitter).
The receiver IR port is located behind the “ACT” button and indicated by a round dark red dot.
The transmitter/receiver frequency will sync automatically.
NOTE:If encryption is turned on, the ACT function will also send a new encryption key to the transmitter and
lock it. To unlock the transmitter it is necessary to re-sync the transmitter again using ACT with the receiver in
“Encryption OFF” mode.
Receiver to transmitter frequencies
are synced automatically.

Computer Network Interface OperationGeneral Tips for Improving System Performance
!
1. MIPRO ACT receivers are fitted with an ACT-BUS interface to enable remote control and monitoring
via a PC-based control system. To enable this to communicate, an optional MIPRO interface adapter
and software package is required.
2. Wiring Instructions
!
Network interfacing of the ACT-82a receivers is achieved via the REMOTE IN of the Network Interface
Connector . This enables the receiver(s) to be linked to a computer using a MIPRO-DVJ (Serial)
17
or MIPRO-DVU (USB) interface connector. Using the RS-232 or USB connector, you can link to a
computer through the RS-232 COM port or USB port. (See diagram below)

Since the installation of the antenna influences the operating efficiency of the receiver, the most
important rule is to minimise the distance as much as possible between the receiving antenna and
the microphone for the best reception and performance.
!
Use MIPRO supplied antennas to ensure proper receiver sensitivity.
!
A built-in worldwide approved switching power supply assures stable performance in the range of
100-240V AC mains power input.
!
The antenna socket provides an 8V DC biased output. Therefore, shorting the antenna socket should
be avoided. Temporary shorts on the antenna socket will not affect system performance (provided
the short is removed), however, a continuous short on the socket may cause permanent system
damage.
!
If extended reception distance is required, installing a MIPRO wideband active directional antenna kit
(AT-90W) will increase antenna performance and thus achieve better range.
!
Proper antenna distribution is vital to achieving ideal performance from multiple wireless systems
operating in the same environment. To greatly reduce antenna clutter in multi-system installations, a
MIPRO AD-707a UHF wideband antenna divider system is recommended. Each AD-707a supports up
to four UHF diversity receivers to operate from a single pair of antennas. When combined with an
AT-70A omni-directional extension antenna and an AT-70B antenna booster or an AT-90W wideband
active directional antenna, the AD-707a antenna divider provides optimal signal reception with
minimal dropouts or interference. Note that the AD-707a antenna divider must match the same band
designation (7A,7B,8A,8B etc.) as the receiver to ensure proper operation.
!
MIPRO's factory preset “interference-free” channels within the same channel group are recommended
to ensure optimum performance from multiple wireless systems installed in the same venue. Use of
preset “interference-free” channels from different channel groups may cause interference due to
intermodulation issues, and is therefore not recommended.

!
The system can link, monitor and control up to 64 receiver channels simultaneously.
!
The connection cable to the computer can be up to 300 metres (330 yards) in length. However,
signal stability and data transmission speed decreases as cable distance gets longer. Therefore
it is recommended not to exceed 100m (110 yards) to maintain the highest data quality as well
as a high transmission speed.
