Charger

 

To reduce set up time, the transmitter and receiver automatically link to form an audio channel the first time they are powered on and never have to be linked again. Note: When setting up multiple receiver systems, turn on and link each transmitter/receiver pair one at a time to prevent cross-linking.

Step

Connect power supply to the receiver and plug cord into an AC power source. Connect the audio output to an amplifier or mixer.

Step

Install charged transmitter batteries.

Step

Turn on the transmitter and receiver. The blue RF LED will flash while the transmitter and receiver form a link. When the link has successfully formed, the RF LED will remain illuminated.
