ystem Overview
The Personal PA™ Tour Guide System is a portable, high-performance, wireless listening system. Much like a miniature radio station, the transmitter broadcasts over an FM radio signal. The receivers are used to pick up the broadcast up to 150 feet away. The system helps large or small groups overcome background noise and distance to clearly hear the tour guide.
The system is composed of a PPA T46 Transmitter, microphone, and optional PPA R37 or R35-8 Receivers equipped with headphones, earphones, or neckloops.
To avoid difficulties, please read through these instructions, and keep them for reference. If you have problems, don’t hesitate to call Williams Sound customer service at 1-800-843-3544.

Using the T46 Transmitter
Getting Started
1. Make sure there are two alkaline or rechargeable NiMH AA batteries in the transmitter. If batteries are not
installed, see Battery Information on page 7.
2. Plug the microphone cord into the “Mic Jack” on top of the transmitter (see Figure 2). In order for the
transmitter to function properly, the microphone must remain plugged in. The cord on the microphone is the transmitting antenna.
3. Turn the unit on: press and hold the “Power On/Off/Mute” button for three seconds. The “Power On” indicator
should illuminate green. The display on the front face of the unit will turn on, displaying the Williams Sound logo for 3 seconds while the transmitter is booting up. The display will then switch to the Main Screen (see Figure 3). Note that the factory default settings at initial power up are unmuted microphone audio and an
unlocked menu. The “Mute Indicator” and “Menu Locked Indicator” are shown for reference in Figure 3, but will not be lit on initial power up.
Muting the Microphone
Press the “On/Off/Mute” button once momentarily to mute the microphone. The “On/Off/Mute” button will flash red, and the display on the front of the unit will show display a brief message indicating the microphone has been muted, then return to the Main Screen. The “Mute Indicator” will now be lit.
