TOA PASSWORD™ SERIES
WIRELESS MICROPHONE SYSTEMS
DESCRIPTION
TOA’s Password Series is a VHF high-band wireless
microphone system operable between 168mHz and 216mHz.
The Password systems are uniquely suited for professional
audio applications ranging from gymnasiums and houses of
worship to classrooms, boardrooms, auditoriums, and live
theater.
All four systems in the Password Series are equipped with
TOA’s proprietary double-squelch circuitry, consisting of a
noise squelch and a tone-key circuit. The noise squelch
automatically mutes signals at approximately 14dB
µ (5
µ
V) to
prevent unwanted RF noise from being transmitted. The tonekey circuit is a high-frequency 32.768kHz side-band signal
that is broadcast by the transmitter simultaneously with the
audio signal. The receiver is designed to reject any RF Signal
which does not have the tone-key present, especially when
the transmitter is off. As a result, the receiver will not process
any other audio signal which is nearby in frequency or location
if the tone key is not present.
TOA’s Password Series also features a compander circuit
which compresses the audio signal within the transmitter at a
ratio of 2 : 1. The signal is then expanded at the same ratio by
the receiver. This boosts the dynamic range to better than
90dB. The original audio signal is unaltered throughout the
entire compression/expansion process.
Four microphones are available with TOA’s Password Series.
Each mic transmitter will operate continuously on a single AA
battery for more than 12 hours. For enhanced speech
applications, TOA offers the WM-270 hand-held electret
condenser microphone. The WM-280 is a hand-held dynamic
microphone for vocal use. The WM-290, which includes a
Shure SM-58 head, is also a hand-held dynamic microphone.
The WM-370 is a unidirectional lapel condenser microphone
with a body pack transmitter.

There are four systems that comprise TOA’s Password Series.
The 870 true diversity and 770 non-diversity wireless systems
each consist of two-port modular receiver frames, which
accept frequency-specific tuner modules. Occupying only a
half-rack space, two receivers can be mounted side-by-side,
yielding four frequencies in a single rack space. The modular
design of both systems allow you to add or change
frequencies in minutes.
TOA’s 780 Scout is a single-channel, non-diversity wireless
microphone system designed to deliver professional
performance at an attractive price. Packaged in a compact
case for placement flexibility, the Scout utilizes all the
performance functions of TOA’s 770 non-diversity system.
The Scout includes a built-in telescoping antenna and an
externally mounted AC power supply.

input, and two non-diversity
microphone receiver tuner module slots, along with a built-in
telescoping antenna.
F/or added versatility, the Password Series includes an
antenna distributor, model WD-770, which splits the input from
a single antenna or a pair of antennas into eight separate
frequencies. Ideal for use in non-diversity or diversity
applications, the WD-770 eliminates the need to provide
additional antennas when more than two frequencies are used
within a wireless system.
With a single WD-770, one
ANTENNA DISTRIBUTOR
antenna can be utilized to
manage up to eight nondiversity signals, while a pair
of antennas working with two
WD-770 units can supply
WD-770
input for up to eight separate
diversity frequencies.

ARCHITECT’S AND ENGINEER’S SPECIFICATIONS
TOA Password 870 True Diversity, 780/770 Non-Diversity Wireless
System/600 Series Portable Meeting Amplifier
The wireless system shall include a transmitting system consisting of a
battery powered transmitter integral to a hand-held microphone or bodypack plus lapel microphone and a receiving system consisting of an AC
powered receiver unit and associated antenna. All receiver units, except
the 780, shall have two ports to accept plug-in receiver modules for up to
two channels of operation. The 780 shall include a single integral receiver.
System configurations shall be as detailed below. Nominal transmitter RF
output level shall be a minimum of 15mW from 168mHz to 216mHz, FM, at
better than ±0.005% frequency stability.
23 different operating frequencies shall be available for the 168mHz to
216mHz range. Companding circuitry with a 2 : 1 ratio shall be utilized
with signal dependent attack and release times. The receiving system
shall have an RF squelch sensitivity preset to 14dB
muting circuit that will deactivate only while a 32.786kHz tone
received. The sensitivity of the receiving system shall be less than 20dBµ
(10
µV) for 70dB quieting. At 60dBµ (1mV) received signal, system
dynamic range shall be better than 90dB (102dBA). Distortion for the
combined transmitting and receiving system shall be less than 1% THD.
The 87-0 receiving system shall utilize diversity circuitry whereby the
receiver module continually compares the received signal strength of the
two antennas connected to the receiver frame and automatically uses the
one with the strongest signal. RF carrier presence indicators shall show
which antenna has been selected by the diversity circuitry.
For the 870/770, there shall be a power on/off switch and power-on
indicator for the receiver frame. The receiver frame shall have two front
ports for easy installation and removal of the receiver modules and their
associated tuner panels. The 870/770 tuner panels shall have peak audio
and carrier presence indicators and an audio volume control. The receiver
rear panel shall have the following: male XLR connector for each channel’s
nominal -60dBV transmitter balanced audio output, a 1/4" phone jack (tip/
sleeve) for an unbalanced summed output of the two channels; a switch to
select the summed output level. -60dBV or 0dBV; one BNC type connector
µ (5µV) and a separate
IS being
for each (870) receiving antenna, or each channel’s (770) receiving
antenna, and one DC input connector.
Models 870 and 770 shall be capable of operating with TOA antenna
distributor model WD-770. The antenna distributor shall convert input
from a single antenna or pair of antennas into eight separate frequencies
to eliminate the need to provide additional antennas when more than two
frequencies are used within the system.
The 780 receiver shall have peak audio, RF carrier presence and poweron indicators; an audio volume control, a 1/4" phone jack (tip/sleeve) for
the nominal -10dBV unbalanced audio output, and a DC input connector.
The receiving antenna shall be a replaceable telescoping whip.
For the 600 Series, the two models WA-641 & WA-641C (with Integrated
cassette player) shall feature a 20-watt, two-way speaker/amplifier
system, a wired, low-impedance microphone input, an auxiliary input, and
two non-diversity microphone receiver tuner module slots, and a built-in
telescoping antenna.
The systems shall comply with parts 74 and 90 of FCC Regulations.
Power for the 870 receiver module shall be supplied by the receiver
frame. Power consumption for the receiver frame with two receiver
modules installed shall be eight watts AC or 250mA at 12V to 18V DC
from an external DC power source.
Power for the 770 receiver module shall be supplied by the receiver
frame. Power consumption for the receiver frame with two receiver
modules installed shall be ten watts AC or 400mA at 12V to 18V DC from
an external DC power source.
Power for the 780 receiver shall be three watts AC mains using a supplied
AC mains to DC adapter or 110mA at 12V DC.
The 600 Series units shall be capable of being operated with AC mains
(35W), eight “D” batteries, or an external DC power supply of 1,200mA,
12V at full output
