4. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Turn the volume controls of the receiver and device in use to a minimum setting before turning on the microphone transmitter. After the receivers power switch is set to the on position, the power switch’s red indicator illuminates to denote normal power status. 2. If the SIGNAL LED indicators of the receiver are illuminated before switching on the microphone or transmitter, it indicates the receiver is receiving interference signals. The more LEDs that illum

illuminate according to the strength of sound level. If the LEDs do not illuminate or sound is not present at the output, the system is not functioning properly and must be checked. 4. RECEIVER AND AMPLIFIER VOLUME ADJUSTMENT: a. Unbalanced Audio Output: Switch the level switch on the rear panel of the receiver to the left “LOW” Position, then adjust the volume control to twelve o’clock position. Adjust the volume control of the amplifier or mixer to an appropriate sound level. The volume

d. If the receiver output level is adjusted to a level that is near the maximum input level of the desired device, it will cause saturation distortion of the device when the receiver output level is increased due to a increase in level by the sound source. Conversely, S/N ratio will decrease if the receiver volume control is adjusted too low. 5. Plug the cable of the mains unit into DC socket on the receiver’s back panel. Thread the cable through the cable grip as shown in the figure b

SELECTING A FREQUENCY CHANNEL ON THE RECEIVER Your local dealer/distributor should be able to advise you on the best frequency selection for your area and help with selecting combinations of non interfering frequencies for multi channel installations. Interference is the most commonly reported “fault” with wireless microphone systems; we offer thirty channels from which to choose to help solve the problem. If you are interfered with, please try changing the group/channel combination before pic

Push forward to turn the transmitter on and slide back to turn the transmitter off. RF signal is transmitted almost immediately the switch is turned on (and the corresponding RF present lamp will glow on the receiver), setting the receiver in to ‘stand by’ mode.

2. BATTERY INSTALLATION Fig.12 1. Unscrew the grill/ball screen assembly at the collar to expose the battery compartment. 2. Insert the 9-volt battery taking care to observe the correct polarity. If the polarity is correct, the battery status indicator lamp will flash briefly. If no flash is observed, then it is likely the polarity is incorrect or the battery is dead flat and needs to be replaced. 3. Replace the grill/ball screen assembly, taking care to line up the 3 pins and polarizing l
