2. Setup Guide
2.1 Unpacking and Initial Inspection
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Verify that all items listed in the 'What's in the Box' section are present and undamaged. If any items are missing or damaged, contact Nady customer support immediately.
2.2 Charging the Receiver
The PEM Wireless Receiver is powered by an internal rechargeable battery. Before first use, fully charge the receiver using the provided USB-C cable and power adapter. The charging indicator light will show the charging status.
- Connect the USB-C cable to the receiver's charging port.
- Connect the other end of the USB-C cable to the power adapter, then plug the adapter into a power outlet.
- Allow approximately 2-3 hours for a full charge. The battery life is up to 11 hours on a full charge.
2.3 Connecting the Transmitter
The PEM-01 Wireless Transmitter is a rackmount unit. Connect it to your audio source (e.g., mixing console) using appropriate cables.
- Connect the included power adapter to the transmitter's DC input and plug it into a power outlet.
- Attach the antenna to the designated port on the transmitter.
- Connect your audio source (e.g., mixer's AUX send or main output) to the transmitter's input jacks (Input 1, Input 2, Input 3 Balanced Line). Use XLR or 1/4" cables as needed.
3. Operating Instructions
3.1 Powering On and Channel Selection
- Turn on the PEM-01 Transmitter using its power switch. The display will illuminate, showing the current channel.
- Turn on the PEM Wireless Receiver. It will automatically attempt to connect to the transmitter.
- If necessary, use the 'UP' and 'DOWN' buttons on the transmitter to select one of the 16 available UHF channels. Ensure the receiver is set to the same channel as the transmitter for proper operation. The receiver typically has a channel scan function to find available channels.
3.2 Connecting Earbuds and Adjusting Volume
Connect the EB-6 Earbud Headphones (or your preferred 3.5mm headphones) to the headphone jack on the PEM Wireless Receiver.
Use the volume control dial on the receiver to adjust the monitoring level to a comfortable listening volume. Avoid excessively high volumes to prevent hearing damage.
3.3 Multiple Receivers
The PEM-01 system supports multiple receivers operating from a single transmitter. Each additional receiver should be tuned to the same channel as the transmitter to receive the audio feed.
4. Maintenance
- Keep the transmitter and receiver clean by wiping them with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Store the system in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Ensure the receiver is fully charged before each use to maximize performance and battery life.
- Handle cables and connectors with care to prevent damage.
5. Troubleshooting
- No Audio:
- Ensure both the transmitter and receiver are powered on.
- Verify that the transmitter and receiver are set to the same channel.
- Check all cable connections from the audio source to the transmitter.
- Increase the volume on the receiver.
- Ensure headphones are properly connected to the receiver.
- Interference/Poor Signal:
- Try switching to a different channel on both the transmitter and receiver.
- Ensure the transmitter and receiver are within the specified operating range (up to 300 feet line-of-sight).
- Minimize obstructions (walls, large metal objects) between the transmitter and receiver.
- Check for other wireless devices operating on similar frequencies that might cause interference.
- Short Battery Life:
- Ensure the receiver is fully charged before use.
