Operation

Procedure for UWP-D series devices (UTX-B40/ M40/P40 and URX-P40)
1
Connect the tuner as required.
For details about example connections, see “System Configuration Example” (page 32).
2
Press and hold the POWER button for at least one second on the tuner to turn the power on.
Note
Some noise may occur when power is turned on. Accordingly, turn down the audio input level of devices connected to the tuner when turning the power on.
3
Press and hold the NFC SYNC button on the tuner for at least four seconds.
Clear Channel Scan starts searching for an available channel within the configured channel group. When Clear Channel Scan finishes, the channel with the least noise and interference will be set. When the channel is set, NFC communication starts automatically.
For details about how to set the group, see “Setting the receive channel” (page 21).
4
Place the N-Marks of both the tuner and transmitter in close proximity (approximately 5 mm).
At this time, make sure that the transmitter is turned on or that the battery level is sufficient and the transmitter is turned off.
19
Information about the channel set on the tuner is sent to the transmitter, and then the transmit channel is set. “COMPLETE” is shown on the display of the transmitter and tuner, and the transmitter vibrates when setup is finished. If the transmitter is turned off when NFC communication is initiated, the transmitter automatically turns on and starts transmitting.
Notes
• NFC communication lasts approximately
20 seconds. Perform step 4 within 20 seconds of performing step 3. If 20 seconds have elapsed, you can reestablish NFC communication using the SYNC RX->TX menu on the tuner.
• Communications using NFC may be adversely affected, depending on the surrounding environment. If this occurs, use the SYNC RX->TX menu on the tuner to reestablish the link.
• If “COMPLETE” is shown on the display of the tuner but the transmitter does not vibrate, the setup may not be finished. If this occurs, use the SYNC RX->TX menu on the tuner to reestablish the link.
If noise is generated
Depending on the environment where the devices are installed, external noise or radio waves may disrupt transmission on certain channels. When selecting a channel under these circumstances, turn off the transmitter. Then, on the tuner, select a channel for which the RF indicator does not light up (i.e., a channel free from noise or radio wave interference). Set the same channel on the transmitter.
Note
To prevent interference or noise, take the following precautions.
• Do not use two or more transmitters on the same channels.
• When operating two or more UWP-D series packages simultaneously, set each package to a different channel within the same channel group.
• Keep the antennas on the tuner and transmitter separated by at least 3 meters (about 10 feet).
• When operating two or more UWP-D series packages simultaneously with different channel groups, make sure that they are at least 100 meters (330 feet) apart if they are used within clear sight of each other (actual distance may vary depending on the circumstances).

Important Notes on Use

The use of some frequency bands may be restricted by law, depending on the country or region. Check in advance before use.
The NFC communication function is used only for communication between a transmitter and a tuner. It cannot be used for communication with other devices.
Notes
• Always verify that the unit is operating properly before use. SONY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, COMPENSATION OR REIMBURSEMENT ON ACCOUNT OF THE LOSS OF PRESENT OR PROSPECTIVE PROFITS DUE TO FAILURE OF THIS UNIT, EITHER DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD OR AFTER EXPIRATION OF THE WARRANTY, OR FOR ANY OTHER REASON WHATSOEVER.
• SONY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR CLAIMS OF ANY KIND MADE BY USERS OF THIS UNIT OR MADE BY THIRD PARTIES.
• SONY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE TERMINATION OR DISCONTINUATION OF ANY SERVICES RELATED TO THIS UNIT THAT MAY RESULT DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES OF ANY KIND.
Condensation
If the unit is suddenly taken from a cold to a warm location, or if ambient temperature suddenly rises, moisture may form on the outer surface of the unit and/or inside of the unit. This is known as condensation. If condensation occurs, turn off the unit and wait until the condensation clears before operating the unit. Operating the unit while condensation is present may damage the unit.
OLED panel
Due to the characteristics of the material used in the OLED panel, permanent burn-in or reduction in brightness may occur. These problems are not a malfunction.
Usage and storage
• Operating the UWP-D series devices near electrical equipment (motors, transformers, or dimmers) may cause interference due to electromagnetic induction. Keep the devices as far from such equipment as possible.
• The presence of lighting equipment may produce electrical interference over a wide frequency range. In this case, interference may fluctuate with the position of the tuner antenna and position of the transmitter. Position the devices so that interference is minimized.
• To avoid degradation of the signal to noise ratio, do not use UWP-D devices 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 PA (public address) loudspeakers – Near equipment that might knock against the tuner Keep devices as far from such equipment as possible or use buffering material.
Cleaning
Clean the surface and the connectors of devices with a dry, soft cloth. Never use thinners, benzene, alcohol, or any other chemicals, since these may mar the finish.
To prevent electromagnetic interference
Some channels may be unable to be used due to noise generated due to the effects of external noise and/or radio interference. In this case, it is recommended to stop transmitting (turn the power off) or change to another frequency (change channel).
To prevent electromagnetic interference from portable communication devices
The use of portable telephones and other communication devices near the devices may result in malfunction and interference with audio signals. It is recommended that portable communication equipment near the devices be turned off.
Consumable parts
The life expectancy of the electrolytic capacitor is about 5 years under normal operating temperatures and normal usage (8 hours per day; 25 days per month). If usage exceeds the above normal usage frequency, the life expectancy may be reduced correspondingly.
