Features

It enables highly secure transmission with high sound quality and low system latency, and supports simultaneous multi-channel operation.
The DWR-S02D digital wireless receiver is a slot-in type wireless receiver capable of receiving two channels from digital wireless transmitters. Used in conjunction with Sony professional camcorders or the optional DWA-01D/F01D wireless adapter, the DWR-S02D enables the construction of a fully digital ENG/EFP audio system. This receiver enables the application of multiple channels over unused television channels through the use of the built-in Sony original channel plan.
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.
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.
Preprogrammed wireless channel plans for simultaneous multi-channel operation
The DWR-S02D has many preprogrammed channel groups, meaning combination of wireless channels to permit simultaneous operation of multiple channels without intermodulation.
Two-channel slot-in wireless receiver
Despite its dual-channel receiver capability, the DWR-S02D is small enough to be mounted directly in the slot of the Sony camcorder.
Rear mounting to camcorders
The DWR-S02D can be rear-mounted to a range of Sony professional camcorders ­using the DWA-01D/F01D wireless adapter. When used with a camcorder that has AES/EBU inputs, full-digital audio recording is also possible.
Features
Auto channel scanning function
The DWR-S02D comes with two auto channel scanning functions that allows for fast, easy and safe frequency channel changes.
Compact, lightweight, and rugged design
The DWR-S02D is highly compact and lightweight, maintaining a good balance even when mounted on a camcorder. In addition, it is made of magnesium die-cast and aluminum, making it extremely rugged and suitable for the harsh environment.
Easy-to-see, full dot-matrix OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display
The quick response of the OLED display enables real-time operating conditions to be displayed clearly and accurately.

a Antenna and antenna connector
(BNC type)
Connect the supplied antenna here.
b Mounting screw
Use to attach the receiver to a camcorder or DWA-01D/F01D wireless adapter.
c Compatibility pin
Prevents the attachment of an incompatible camcorder or adapter.
d Accessory connector
Use to connect the receiver to a camcorder or DWA-01D/F01D wireless adapter. Power, audio, and control signals are sent through this connector.
e POWER indicator
Lights up green when the power is on. The POWER1 and POWER2 indicators indicate the power status of tuner 1 and tuner 2, respectively.
f USB connector
Connecting an optional keyboard to this connector allows menu operation to be performed on the keyboard. Connecting the transmitter to this connector through the supplied USB cable allows an encryption key to be exchanged with the transmitter.
For details on the use of a USB keyboard, see “Using a USB Keyboard” on page 16.
For details on encryption key exchange, see “Using the Encrypted Transmission Function” on page 14.
g RF (radio frequency) indicators
Indicate the RF input level of tuner 1 and tuner 2. The indicators that light up depend on the RF squelch function setting as follows:
i MENU SELECT (menu selection)
button
Selects the displayed menu.
j SET button
Changes the item to be set or enters the selected function or parameter value.
k + or – button
Use to select a function or value. If you set the POWER switch on tuner 1 or tuner 2 to ON while holding down the + button, the tuner that you turned ON will begin the scanning operation of the clear channel scan function. If you set the POWER switch on tuner 1 or tuner 2 to ON while holding down the – button, the tuner that you turned ON will begin the pairing operation of the wireless remote control function.
l Display section
Meter display
When the RF (radio frequency) squelch level is set to OFF:
On in green: 25 dBµ or more On in red: 15 dBµ to 25 dBµ Off: Less than 15 dBµ
When the RF (radio frequency) squelch level is set to 20 dBµ:
On in green: 30 dBµ or more On in red: 20 dBµ to 30 dBµ Off: Less than 20 dBµ
h POWER switches
Turn tuner 1 and tuner 2 on or off individually.
A Audio input level meter
Indicates the input signal level.
B Reference level gage
Indicates the reference input level. –58 dBu (–60 dBV) is indicated when the input level is set to “MIC” on the transmitter, and +4 dBu when the input level is set to line.
C Peak indicator
Warns of excessive input by lighting up when the signal is 3 dB below the level at which distortion begins.
Parts Identification
D Battery indication
Based on metadata from the transmitter, shows the transmitter’s battery condition according to 8 level indications. Replace both batteries when the battery indication starts to flash.
For details on how to change the batteries on the transmitter, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the transmitter.
E Signal quality level meter
Indicates the quality of the RF signal reception. The occurrence of many data errors during a given interval reduces the height of the bar graph. This meter allows you to monitor signal deterioration that may occur when there is noise or when the transmitter is too far from the receiver.
F RF level meter
Indicates the RF input level. The number of segments that light up depends on the input level. When the squelch function is set, the squelch level is indicated on the RF level meter. When the RF input level drops below the squelch level, the output signal is muted.

Preparation

Attaching to a Camcorder

This receiver can be inserted into a slot provided on compatible Sony camcorders. The audio signal, which is converted to digital by the digital wireless transmitter, can be recorded as is to the camcorder, allowing you to create a fully digital system.
1 Remove the cover from the slot for the
wireless receiver on the camcorder, and insert the receiver into the slot.
To avoid inserting the receiver in the wrong direction, confirm the location of the mounting screws and compatibility pin before inserting the wireless receiver.

2 After inserting the receiver completely
into slot, securely fasten the four mounting screws.
Receiver
Preparation
For details about operating the camcorder with the receiver, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the camcorder.
Note
If the camcorder is not compatible with the receiver, the compatibility pin on the receiver will make it impossible to insert the receiver into the slot.
For details on compatible camcorders, consult a Sony sales representative.

Using the DWA-01D/F01D Wireless Adapter

Attaching the receiver to the DWA-01D/ F01D wireless adapter allows them to be used as a portable wireless receiver.
For details, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the adapter.

Setting the Receiving Channel

The receiver provides groups of channels for interference-free transmission. When using multiple wireless microphones and transmitters (simultaneous multi-channel operations) within the same area, selecting the same group and using a channel within that group can prevent signal interference.

Selecting the Frequency Band / Group / Channel

Set the frequency band (BAND), group (GP), and channel (CH) as follows.
For details on the groups and channels included in each frequency band, refer to “Sony Digital Wireless Microphone System Frequency Lists” on the supplied CD-ROM.
For details on menu operations, see “Basic Menu Operations” on page 18.
1 Press the MENU SELECT button
repeatedly until the RX1/RX2 menu is displayed.
2 Press the + or – button repeatedly until
the BAND screen is displayed.
