The DWM-02 is a digital wireless
microphone that features an
interchangeable microphone capsule unit
design, and is intended for use in UHF
synthesized wireless microphone systems.
The DWM-02 can be used in vocal
performances, interviews, speeches, and a
variety of other applications.
What is DWX?
DWX refers to Sony’s new digital wireless
microphone system. The DWX series
reflects Sony’s extensive expertise in
professional microphones and sound
design. It represents a successful blend of
Sony know-how, wireless technology
renowned for stability, and cutting-edge
digital audio technology.
In addition to realizing the high sound
quality possible with a digital system, the
DWX series supports multi-channel
simultaneous operation, encrypted
transmission, and metadata transmission for
monitoring the status of multiple
transmitters. Using a main link and a
separate additional link, remote control of
transmitters from the receiver is also
possible. With its many advanced features,
the system has the potential to revolutionize
the workflow of professional applications.
What is WiDIF-HP?
WiDIF-HP (WiDIF: Wireless Digital
Interface Format, HP: High Profile) is a
wireless digital audio interface format
developed by Sony.
It enables highly secure transmission with
high sound quality and low system latency,
and supports simultaneous multi-channel
operation.
What is Cross Remote?
Cross Remote is a system that allows
transmitters to be monitored and controlled
from a receiver and the Wireless Studio
control software installed on a computer
connected to the receiver.
For example, the settings of a transmitter
worn under clothing can be easily changed
over the wireless link.
Wide RF carrier frequency
range
The DWM-02 microphone covers an
extremely wide RF carrier frequency range.
Depending on the model, the transmitter
can cover bandwidths between 48-MHz and
72-MHz (e.g., 72-MHz with the CE4248 1))
— much wider than 24-MHz of the analog
wireless microphone system. This
remarkably wide coverage on a single
model offers cost efficiency and operational
convenience, because it allows one
microphone to be operated in many
different areas.
1) Carrier frequencies differ depending on the
model.

Important Notes
on Operation
Notes on Using the
Microphone
• The digital wireless microphone system
product must be used within a
temperature range of 0 °C to 50 °C
(32°F to 122°F).
• Operating the microphone near electrical
equipment (motors, transformers, or
dimmers) may cause it to be affected by
electromagnetic induction. Keep the
microphone as far from such equipment
as possible.
• The presence of the lighting equipment
may produce electrical interference over
the entire frequency range. Position the
microphone so that interference is
minimized.
• To avoid degradation of the signal-tonoise ratio, do not use the microphone in
noisy places or in locations subject to
vibration, such as the following:
- near electrical equipment, such as
motors, transformers or dimmers
- near air conditioning equipment or
places subject to direct air flow from
an air conditioner
- near public address loudspeakers
- where adjacent equipment might
knock against the tuner
Keep the microphone as far from such
equipment as possible or use buffering
material.
On Cleaning
• If the microphone is used in a very humid
or dusty place or in a place subject to an
active gas, clean its surface as well as the
connectors with a dry, soft cloth soon
after use. Lengthy use of the microphone
in such places or not cleaning it after its
use in such places may shorten its life.
• Clean the surface and the connectors of
the microphone with a dry, soft cloth.
Never use thinner, benzene, alcohol or
any other chemicals, since these may mar
the finish.
Notes on Simultaneous MultiChannel Operation
• Keep the microphone at least 30 cm (11 7/
inches) away from another transmitter/
microphone.
When the distances between transmitters
and microphones need to be closer than the
distances above, use a grouping system for
multi-channel systems that include both
digital wireless and analog wireless devices.
For details, refer to “Sony Digital Wireless
Microphone System Frequency Lists” on the
supplied CD-ROM.
• When only digital wireless microphones
are being used, keep the microphone at
least 4 m (13 feet) away from the antenna
of a receiver for up to 10 channels, and at
least 6 m (20 feet) away for 11 or more
channels.
• When a mixture of digital and analog
wireless microphones/transmitters is
being used, keep the microphone at least
6 m (20 feet) away from the antenna of a
receiver.
• This system should be kept at least 100 m
(328 feet) away from any analog wireless
systems using the same frequency when
both are being used in a wide area with no
walls or obstructions.
• If you experience noise, increase the
distance between the microphone and
receiver or decrease the transmission
power on the microphone.
