Shure IncorporatedULXD6 ULXD8 Boundary and Gooseneck Base Transmitters
General Description
ULX-D series boundary and gooseneck base transmitters add new designs
to Shure's breakthrough ULX-D wireless line. Boundary and gooseneck base
transmitters offer cable-free flexibility for corporate conference rooms, government facilities, educational institutions, A/V conferencing, and live sound
reinforcement. Use Shure Wireless Workbench®software and networked
charging stations to simplify transmitter configuration and monitor charging
status.
Both transmitters run on rechargeable or AA batteries and can be monitored
using external control systems, such as AMX or Crestron. ULX-D systems
also offer audio signal encryption, high-density mode, and Dante™ digital
networking for multi-channel audio over Ethernet.

Connecting Gooseneck Microphone to ULXD8 Base
ULXD8 base transmitters fit 5", 10", and 15" Microflex series gooseneck microphones, available in single and dualflex models.
Connect microphone to base as shown.
Boundary Microphone Placement
The boundary transmitter sits on a table or desk to transmit speech while discreetly blending into any conference environment. Cardioid and omnidirectional
versions are available.
For best low-frequency response and rejection of background noise, place the microphone on a large, flat surface, such as a floor, table, or lectern.
To reduce reverberance, avoid reflective surfaces above or to the side of the microphone, such as beveled sides of pulpits or overhanging shelves.
Batteries
Boundary and gooseneck base transmitters can be powered by Shure SB900
batteries or two AA batteries (included).
The receiver front panel displays battery charge level in hours/minutes for
Shure batteries and in bars for AA batteries. For accurate monitoring, set

Mute/Active Button
The button is configured to toggle between Mute and Active. The following
options are available:
•Toggle: Press button to mute microphone, press again to pass audio
•Push-to-Talk: Hold button to pass audio
•Push-to-Mute: Hold button to mute microphone
•Disabled: Button functionality off

Each transmitter contains a high-pass filter.
The high-pass filter:
•attenuates frequencies below 150 Hz by 12 dB per octave
•reduces low-frequency noise caused by table vibration or air handling
systems
Shure IncorporatedULXD6 ULXD8 Boundary and Gooseneck Base Transmitters
Change button behavior using Wireless Workbench or the receiver front
panel.
Menu path: IR PRESETS>GOOSENECK / BOUNDARY>MUTE BUTTON
BEHAVIOR
Note: When the mute/active button is set to Disabled, the transmitter will still
send TPCI data if the button is pressed.
Adjust high-pass filter settings using Wireless Workbench or the receiver
front panel.

>100 m (330 ft.)20 mW
For increased channel reuse
at close distances
Typical setups100 m (330 ft.)10 mW
For hostile RF environments
or long-distance applications
Locking Transmitter Controls
Boundary and gooseneck base transmitters have a power lock to prevent
accidental or unauthorized changes to the transmitter. When the power lock
is on, the transmitter's power switch is disabled.
To unlock, use receiver front panel or Wireless Workbench.
Menu path: IR PRESETS>GOOSENECK / BOUNDARY>POWER LOCK
Setting Initial State From Charger
Use the receiver front panel or Wireless Workbench to control a transmitter's
state after you remove it from a networked charging station.
•Active: On and passing audio
•Muted: On but the audio is muted
•Off: Power is off
Menu path: IR PRESETS>GOOSENECK / BOUNDARY>RF POWER
Note: Using the 20 mW setting decreases the transmitter battery runtime
and reduces the number of compatible systems.
Attempting to access a locked feature will display the following message on
the receiver front panel:
Menu path: IR PRESETS>GOOSENECK / BOUNDARY>INITIAL STATE
FROM CHARGER
Note: If Mute Button Behavior is set to Push-to-Talk and Initial State From
Charger is set to Active, the transmitter will only pass audio when you push
the mute button. Make sure to coordinate settings for Mute Button Behavior
and Initial State From Charger.
Audio Signal Encryption
When encryption is enabled, the receiver generates a unique encryption key
which is shared with the transmitter during an IR sync. Transmitters and receivers that share an encryption key form a protected audio path, preventing
unauthorized access from other receivers.
Enable encryption using Wireless Workbench or the receiver front panel. For
more details, see the user guide for your receiver.

Encrypting a Single Transmitter to a Single Receiver
1. From the receiver menu: DEVICE UTILITIES>ENCRYPTION> ON (Auto)
2. Press ENTER.
3. Perform an IR Sync to share the encryption key with the selected transmitter.
BN and GN OFFSET
BN OFFSET and GN OFFSET compensate for signal level differences between transmitters that share the same receiver channel. For normal gain
adjustments, use the receiver gain buttons.
Transmitter Reset
Hold mute button while powering on transmitter to restore factory settings:
•Mute button: Toggle
•Mute LED: Active/Mute = Green/Red
•Mute LED with MX400R gooseneck: Active/Mute = Red/Off
•Initial state from charger: Active
Removing Encryption
1. From the receiver menu: DEVICE UTILITIES>ENCRYPTION>OFF
2. Press ENTER.
3. IR Sync the transmitter and receiver to clear the encryption key.
Note: If multiple transmitters are encrypted to a single receiver, each trans-
mitter must be IR synced to clear the encryption key.
