4 4 4 4 Setup and Operation

4.1 Placing the receiver

Place the receiver on a plane surface and put the antenna(s) in a vertical position. In order to ensure
sufficient cooling of the unit, air must always be able to flow freely through all air vents.
Notes
• Place the receiver at least 1 meter above the ground and not too close to lateral walls.
• Avoid sources of interference such as metal surfaces or electronic devices (e.g. computer, CD player).
• Ideally, position the receiving antennas at the height of the transmitter. When using multiple systems, do
not allow antennas to cross or touch each other.
• For optimum reception, keep the transmitter at least 1 meter away from the receiver and avoid obstacles.

4.2 Connecting the receiver

1) Connect the receiver to the subsequent unit:
• The unbalanced XLR outputs of the individual channel outputs can be connected to a microphone input
each of a mixer.
• Use the unbalanced 6.3 mm jack "AUDIO OUT" for the master signal of all receiving channels for
connection to a microphone input or a highly sensitive line input.
2) Finally, connect the power adapter to the power input of the receiver and the mains plug to a mains
socket. Use the receiver only with the supplied power adapter. Always disconnect the mains connector
when you wish to change connections, move the unit to a different place or if it is not used for a longer
period.

4.3 Hand-held microphone

1) For operation, the hand-held microphone requires two 1.5 V AA batteries. To access the battery
compartment unscrew the lower part of the microphone. Insert two batteries as indicated in the battery
compartment.
2) If the battery indicator lights up, the batteries are exhausted and have to be replaced. If the microphone
is not used for a longer period, please remove the batteries to prevent damage in case of battery
leakage.

4.4 Operation

1) Switch on the receiver and the microphones.
2) After switching on the microphones, a radio connection to the individual receiver module is set up. The
RF reception indicators of the individual reception channels indicate that a connection exists to the
corresponding transmitters.
3) Switch on the following audio unit or advance the respective fader on the mixer. Speak into the
microphones and match the output level of the individual reception channels to the input of the following
unit with the volume controls.
4) To mute the microphone during operation, set the sliding switch to its center position "MUTE". Then no
sound will be transmitted.
5) After operation, switch off the receiver and do not forget to switch off the microphones. Otherwise the
batteries will be exhausted the next time they are used.
