AWS-2000
Thank you for choosing Senal.
The Senal AWS-2000 is a versatile, lightweight, yet rugged
wireless system that is ideal for a wide variety of professional
uses such as ENG, interviews, conferences, lectures, and
live theater production. The included AWS-2000T beltpack
transmitter, AWS-2000R camera mount receiver, and
optional AWS-2000P plug-on transmitter have an operating
range of up to 500 feet. Each component is packed with
features that will enable videographers and directors to
capture broadcast-quality audio. The intuitive design and an
uncomplicated menu structure make the AWS-2000 system
easy to set up and effortless to use.
The portable receiver features a one-touch frequency scan
and infrared sync that allows you to effortlessly find a clear
channel for your devices. This true-diversity receiver uses
dual antennas and reception circuits that eliminate audio
dropouts and RF interference. To further protect audio from
unwanted interference, the AWS-2000 system includes
3-level squelch and pilot tone. Other features such as
selectable mic/line input and variable RF power output give
this wireless system the ability to deliver clean, accurate, and
pristine audio.
Each component is powered by two AA batteries.
An integrated Micro-USB port can be used to charge
NiMH batteries without removing them from the battery
compartments. Advanced OLED display technology provides
easy-to-see screens, even in dim lighting conditions. Top
display orientation assures that the displays are easy to read
regardless of where they’re mounted or carried. Removable
antennas make this wireless system compact and easy to
transport, and allows you to easily change an antenna if
it’s damaged. Rugged metal housing on each component
makes the AWS-2000 system ideal for travel or location use
and able to withstand the rigors of the most demanding
environments.
