4. Setup Instructions
4.1 Receiver Placement and Connection
Image 1: Front view of the XTUGA EW240 receiver. This image shows the front panel of the receiver unit, featuring four antennas, two digital display screens for channels 1-2 and 3-4, and individual volume controls for each channel.
Image 2: Rear view of the XTUGA EW240 receiver. This image displays the back panel of the receiver, highlighting the individual 1/4-inch audio outputs (OUT A, OUT B, OUT C, OUT D), a mixed 1/4-inch output, antenna connections (ANT A, ANT B, ANT C, ANT D), and the DC power input.
- Position the Receiver: Place the receiver unit in a central location, away from large metal objects or other electronic devices that may cause interference. Ensure the antennas are fully extended and positioned vertically for optimal signal reception.
- Connect Power: Connect the provided AC power adapter to the DC 16V input on the rear of the receiver. Plug the adapter into a suitable power outlet.
- Connect Audio Output:
- For a mixed output of all four channels, connect a 1/4-inch audio cable from the "MIXED" output on the receiver to the input of your mixer or amplifier.
- For individual channel control, connect 1/4-inch audio cables from "OUT A", "OUT B", "OUT C", and "OUT D" to separate inputs on your mixer or amplifier.
4.2 Transmitter Preparation

Image 4: Two bodypack transmitters with connected microphones. This image shows two bodypack transmitters, one connected to a headset microphone and the other to a lavalier microphone, demonstrating the versatility of the system.
- Install Batteries: Open the battery compartment of each bodypack transmitter. Insert two 1.5V AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Close the compartment securely.
- Connect Microphone: Plug the 3.5mm connector of either a headset microphone or a lavalier microphone into the input jack on the top of the bodypack transmitter. Ensure the connection is firm.
- Secure Transmitter: Attach the bodypack transmitter to clothing or a belt using the integrated clip. Position the microphone appropriately for the user (e.g., lavalier clipped to clothing, headset worn on head).
5. Operating Instructions
- Power On Receiver: Press the power button on the front panel of the receiver. The display screens should illuminate, showing the channel frequencies.
- Power On Transmitters: Slide the power switch on each bodypack transmitter to the "ON" position. The transmitter's display should light up, indicating its operating channel and battery status.
- Frequency Synchronization: The EW240 system is designed for automatic frequency synchronization. Ensure the transmitter and receiver are on the same channel frequency. If channels are not synchronized, refer to the troubleshooting section or consult the full product manual for specific pairing instructions (not detailed in provided data).
- Adjust Volume: Slowly increase the master volume on your mixer/amplifier and then adjust the individual channel volume controls on the receiver to achieve the desired audio level. Speak into the microphone to test the sound.
- Monitor Performance: Observe the signal indicators on the receiver to ensure a strong and stable connection.
- Power Off: After use, first turn off all bodypack transmitters, then power off the receiver.
6. Maintenance
- Battery Replacement: Replace transmitter batteries when the low battery indicator appears or when audio quality degrades. Always use fresh 1.5V AA batteries.
- Cleaning: Clean the receiver and transmitters with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, remove batteries from transmitters and store the system in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Antenna Care: Handle receiver antennas carefully to prevent bending or damage.
