System Overview
Thank you for purchasing a Motiva™ Personal FM System from Williams Sound Corp. Anyone needing
auditory assistance to overcome background noise, reverberation, or distance from a sound source
can benefit from a Personal FM System.
Your PFM System has two principal parts: the Transmitter and the Receiver. Much like a miniature radio station, the Transmitter and microphone pick up the sounds you want to hear and broadcast them
over an FM radio signal. The receiver and earphone are used to pick up the broadcast up to 150 feet
away.
To avoid difficulties, please read through these instructions as you begin using the system. Then save
them for questions that arise as you continue to use your Williams Sound Personal FM System.
If you have problems with the PFM system, don’t hesitate to call us toll-free at 1-800-843-3544.
The speaker wears the belt-clip transmitter and a clip-on microphone. The speaker’s voice is broadcast as an FM radio signal over a distance of 150 feet. Listeners use the pocket receiver and
earphones or headphones to hear the speaker’s voice directly, with reduced background noise. An
optional neckloop telecoil coupler allows the system to be used with telecoil (T-switch) equipped hearing aids.

IMPORTANT: If Alkaline (nonrechargeable) batteries are being installed, slide the battery selection switch in the battery compartment to the “Alkaline” position. See FIG 1 below. If installing
NiMH (or rechargeable) batteries, slide the battery selection switch to the “NiMH” position.
FIG. 1: Battery Selection Switch
1. Install two (2) AA batteries. Note: rechargeable batteries must be charged before use. See Battery Information on page 11.
2. Plug the microphone cord into the “Mic Jack” ( ) on top of the transmitter.
3. Optionally, plug in a desired audio source such as a CD or MP3 player using the “Auxiliary Input”
jack (WCA 087 stereo auxiliary input cable included). If the microphone and an auxiliary source are
used together, the audio will be mixed. If only the auxiliary source is desired, the microphone can
be muted. Do not remove the microphone from the “Mic Jack” as the microphone’s cable is also the
transmitting antenna!
4. Turn the unit on: press and hold the “ON/OFF/MUTE” button for three seconds. The “Power On”
indicator ( ) should illuminate green.
5. Select the desired operating frequency. Use the “Channel Selector” knob to select any of the 16
available channels on 72-76 MHz. Refer to the channel selection chart (FIG 9, Page 10). Make
sure the receiver being used is operating on the same frequency as the T36 transmitter.

6. Place the transmitter in a pocket, or clip it onto a belt or waistband (See “BELT CLIP INSTALLATION”, page 10).
