Page 7
CAUTION: Please make sure that the AC adapter is the cor rect voltage for your local requirements.
4. ClearScan: The FMR-10 Wireless system features ClearScan. ClearScanautomates the process of finding a
clear channel to use insetup ofyour FMR-10 Wireless system.To use ClearScan, depress and hold down the set button for 3 sec onds. When the channel display begins flashing release the set button. The receiver is now searching for a clear frequency by
measuring the RFenergy present on each channel. The entirepro cess will take about 5 seconds. While scanning, the channel dis play will show the channel number being scanned. When
ClearScanis complete, the display will stop flashing and it will display the number of the channel recommended for use.
NOTE: If using more than one FMR-10 system, set up ONE sys­tem at a time. Turn on the transmitter for the first system, before
using ClearScanto set up the second. Please see the “Guide­line/Recommendations for best performance” section of the FMR-10 User’s Guide to set up more than two systems.
5.
Setting the Channel: Changing the channel on the receiver can also be done manually. By momentarily depressing the set but­ton, the channel number is increased by one.
-
-
-
-
NOTE: when the system is turned off, the channel number is saved in non-volatile memory. When the receiver is turned on, it will return to the same channel number.
6.
Channel Change Lock-out: Once the channel has been set on the receiver, the FMR-10 system has the capability to deactivate or lock-out the channel change button. This is done by depressing the set button for 10 seconds or more. Lock-out is active when the decimal point illuminates in the lower right corner of the channel display. This will defeat the set button. To override or defeat the lockout function, again depress the set button for 10 seconds. This will reactivate the channel set button to work normally. This function can be useful where unauthorized personnel have access to the receiver.

Page 8
NOTE: If thesystem is in “lock-out”, ClearScanwill notfunction.
7. Make sure the gain setting is muted or turned down on the mixer or amp channel you will connect the wireless system to.
8. Plug the audio cable (not supplied) into the output connector.
NOTE: The 3-pin XLR-type connector output level is fixed, and cannot be adjusted.
Now refer to details located in the FMR-10 User’s Guide on how to set up the transmitter.
Once the Transmitter has been set-up, and turned on...
9. Speak or sing loudly into the microphone and observe the Audio level meter on the receiver. Adjust the gain control on the trans­mitter to prevent over or under modulation. The gain should be adjusted so that the signal peaks are no more than -10dB and that there is at least -20dB or audio level meter indication.
10. “Walk” the expected area of use to check for dropouts or interfer­ence. To minimize the potential for dropouts or interference, please observe good antenna placement. When the transmitter is turned on, the RF meter on the receiver should be illuminated in the green range to verify it is receiving a strong signal.
11.
Adjust the squelch control if necessary. The squelch control on the back of the receiver may be adjusted to effectively increase range or to reduce interference. The factory setting is at a mid point, which shouldbe suitable for most situations.To effectively increase range, turn the control counter-clockwise until you hear noise or interference, then, turn the squelch clockwise until the noise is muted. To reduce interference, turn the control clock wise.
NOTE: If the squelch is being adjusted, the transmitter should be turned off.
CAUTION! Increasing the range will make the system more susceptible to outside interference! Reducing interference will also effectively decrease the range, which will make the system more susceptible to dropouts.

3.1.2 Antenna Placement3.1.2 Antenna Placement
For any wireless system to perform correctly, strong RF signals are mandatory. To maximize signal strength, good antenna placement must be utilized. Although some situations prohibit perfect antenna placement, here are some guidelines:
1. The antennas should be placed in a location with a clear signal path to the transmitter. Walls, ceilings, metal objects, equipment racks, etc. are all signal barriers that will reduce range and perfor mance. Generally speaking, placing thereceiver atan elevatedlo cation can help increase range and signal strength.
Figure 5
1/2-Wave antenna for Remote Mounting
-
-
Figure 6
2.
If the receiver is rack-mounted, external antennas are neces sary. Do not rack mount the FMR-10 with the antennas mounted directly on the back of the unit. This will severely decrease the range and performance of the system.
If the FMR-10 is rack-mounted, make sure the antennas are front-mounted (following the directions noted above). If anten nas are mounted remotely from the chassis, the 1/4-wave anten nas supplied with the receiver cannot be used. 1/2-wave antennas are a necessity if the antennas are remote-mounted and can pro vide better performance when used with the rack mount.
-9-
-
-
-
-
Page 12
If antennas are remote-mounted, separating them 6 feet (1.8m) or more and keeping them at least 2 feet (.6m) from other barriers will improve performance (see Figure 8). If you are remote mounting the antennas and require strong signal over a large area, consider using highly directional antennas such as a log-periodic. The ALP-450 available from Telex is tuned for frequencies from 450-900 MHz and can provide an additional 5 dB of gain.
3. If you remote-mount the antennas, attention should be paid to the type and quality of the antenna cable. For cable runs longer than 25-ft. (7.6m), special low-loss cables should be used.

on the receiver (channel number displayed on front of receiver panel). The channel setting on the handheld transmitter is ac­cessed through the round opening on the side of the mic housing. Numbers 0 - 9 are printed around the opening. The channel set ting is determined by which number the arrowed slot is pointing to. Use a small screwdriver (supplied) to change the channel set ting. See Figure 10.
3.
Turn on the transmitter by sliding the power switch (closest to the battery compartment) forward to the ON position (toward the windscreen). The red battery condition light should flash once and then go out. If the red light stays on or illuminates during a performance, the battery should be replaced immediately. The green light will stay lit when the handheld transmitter is on.
Note: Remember to turn the transmitter OFF when not in use. This will conserve battery life.

4.
Verify Reception. When the transmitter is turned on: (FMR-10) the RF meter will illuminate, indicating that the receiver is pick ing up the signal. If this does not happen, make sure that the trans mitter and receiver are set to the same channels.
5.
Unmute the audio by sliding the audio switch (immediately be low the mic element) towards the windscreen. Speak or sing into the microphone and you should hear your voice through the PA / sound system.
6.
Adjustment of the transmitter audio gain - if necessary. The transmitter audio gain is set to a mid level which should be suit able for most situations. However, for loud or soft speakers or singers, an adjustment may be necessary. First, speak or sing into the microphone and listen closely. If the gain is too high, you will hear distortion, and if thegain is too low,the signalwill below. In either situation, an adjustment may be necessary.
To adjust the transmitter gain, gently insert the provided screw­driver (or other 3/32-in./2.4mm screwdriver) into the hole near the head of the transmitter (see Figure 12). Turn lightly until the screwdriver tip drops into the slot in the level control. Gently turn counterclockwise until the control stops (the mic output is attenu­ated but not “off”). Slowly turn the mic-level control up while lis­tening to the audio. If the audio becomes distorted, turn the mic level control down (counter-clockwise) about 1/8 turn.
-
-
-
-
Note: Operate with the transmitter audio gain set as high as possi ble without distortion, for the best signal to noise ratio.
7.
Test performance. Check to see that the RF meter on the FMR-10 receiver is illuminated, an indication that the receiver is picking up the signal. Then, “walk” the intended area of use and make sure that there are no barriers to reception or sources of in terference. If problems are encountered, see Troubleshooting Guide.

ClearScanis most useful for finding operating frequencies for situ ations where no more than 2 systems will be used simultaneously.
When setting up more than 2 systems, use ClearScanto choose the first channel of operation. Set up subsequent systems following the channel groupings listed above in the “Using Multiple Wireless Sys tems” section.
Potential Sources of Interference
Potential Sources of Interference
There are many potential sources of interference for your wireless system. Any electronic product that contains digital circuitry includ ing digital signal processors (reverb/multi-effects units), electronic keyboards, digital lighting controllers, CD players and computers, all emit RF energy that can adversely affect the performance of your wireless system. It is always best to place your receiver as far away from these devices as possible to minimize this potential source of problems.

Battery RecommendationsBattery Recommendations
Fresh 9-volt alkaline batteries from a quality manufacturer will yield the best performance from your FMR-10 transmitters. Rechargeable
8.4-volt Ni-cad batteries can be used, but will yield much shorter op
erational time.
When the transmitter switch is turned on, the red battery light will flash once if the battery is good. If the light does not flash or stays lit continuously, the battery is weak or dead. If the light comes on during use, the battery is weakening and should be replaced as soon as possi ble.
If sound qualitydegrades during use, it may be the resultof a weaken­ing battery.
Receiver and Antenna Placement
Receiver and Antenna Placement
Do not place the receiver near a large metal object or surface. Locate the receiver as close as possible to the area where the Trans­mitter user will be working. Ideally, position the receiver so that the transmitter is within site of the receiver.
-
