Features
single model offers cost efficiency and operational convenience, because it allows one transmitter to be operated in many different areas.
The DWT-P01(F) is a digital wireless transmitter for a UHF synthesized wireless microphone system to be used for broadcast or movie production purpose. This transmitter is suitable for Electronic News Gathering (ENG).
What are the strengths of a Digital Wireless Microphone System?
This system has the following special features and qualities:
• High-quality audio signal transmission approaching to the quality of wired microphone
• Extremely tolerant to interference waves and secure wireless transmission
• Simultaneous multi-channel operation
• Encrypted transmission
• Metadata transmission.
Switchable mic or line input level and adjustable attenuator
For details, see “Setting the audio input level (INPUT LEVEL)” .
Selectable RF output power: 1 mW, 10 mW, and 50 mW
For details, see “Setting the RF output power (RF POWER)” .
Power sleep mode
For details, see “Power save setting (POWER SAVE)” .
Digital low-cut filter
For details, see “Low-cut filter setting (LCF)”.
Easy-to-see, full dot-matrix
Note that the DWT-P01(F) Digital Wireless Transmitter cannot be used to transmit to analog wireless receivers.
The features of this transmitter are described below.
Wide RF carrier frequency range
The DWT-P01(F) transmitter covers an extremely wide RF carrier frequency range. US models can cover a 66-MHz band and 60-MHz band respectively — much wider than 24­MHz of the analog wireless microphone system. This remarkably wide coverage on a
OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) Display
The quick response of the OLED display enables real-time operating conditions to be displayed clearly and accurately.
+48 V power supply for a microphone

Power Supply
j Battery compartment
Accommodates two LR6 (size AA) alkaline batteries.
For details on how to insert the batteries, see “Power Supply”.
The transmitter can operate on two LR6 (size AA) alkaline batteries continuously for about 3.5 hours at 25°C (77°F).
Installing the batteries
1 Squeeze the battery-holder tabs inward
(in the direction of the arrows) and slide out the battery holder.
2 Insert new batteries, making sure the
polarities are correct, and then return the battery holder to its original position.
Battery indication
The power status is indicated by eight level indications. Replace both batteries when the battery indication starts to flash. Be sure to check the expiration date printed on the new batteries before using them.
Note
The indication is based on the use of new LR6 (size AA) Sony Alkaline batteries. An incorrect indication may result when a different kind of batteries, a different brand of batteries or old batteries are used. If you plan to use the transmitter for a long period of time, it is recommended that you replace the batteries with brand new ones.
Setting the Transmission Channel
The transmitter provides groups of interference-free channels. When using multiple microphones and transmitters at the same time (simultaneous multi-channel operations) within the same area, selecting the same group and using a channel within that group can prevent signal interference. To set the transmission channel on the transmitter, first you select the group and channel using the RF indicator and scanning functions on the receiver. Next you set the group and channel parameters to match the setting on the receiver.
Selecting the group/ channel
Notes
• Before doing this procedure, use the
BAND function to set the transmitter to the bandwidth of the receiver you are using.
• The setting for this function cannot be
changed during actual signal transmission.
Set the transmitter group (GP) and channel (CH) as follows:
For details on groups and channels, refer to “Sony Digital Wireless Microphone System Frequency Lists” on the supplied CD-ROM.
For details on menu operation, see “Basic Menu Operations”.
