Setup

1. Transmitter Connection

  1. Connect the provided power adapter to the DC power socket on the rear panel of the transmitter and plug it into a power outlet.
  2. Attach the two antennas to the antenna ports on the rear panel.
  3. Connect your audio source (e.g., mixing console) to the Left and Right channel inputs (XLR or 6.35mm) on the rear panel using the supplied audio cables. Adjust input levels as needed using the corresponding potentiometers.

2. Bodypack Receiver Preparation

  1. Open the battery compartment on the bodypack receiver. Insert two AA batteries (user supplied), ensuring correct polarity.
  2. Connect the earphones to the 3.5 mm headphone output on the bodypack receiver.

Image: The bodypack receiver requires two AA batteries for operation, providing approximately 4-5 hours of working time.

3. Infrared Frequency Pairing

To establish a wireless connection, the transmitter and bodypack receivers must be paired to the same frequency channel.

  1. Power on the transmitter and select your desired frequency channel using the "Setup selection" and "Down Select" buttons. The chosen frequency will be displayed on the LED screen.
  2. Power on the bodypack receiver.
  3. Aim the infrared window on the transmitter towards the infrared window on the bodypack receiver. Ensure they are within close proximity (a few centimeters).
  4. Press the "Switch Button" or "Channel up/down button" on the bodypack receiver to initiate pairing. The LED display on the bodypack will show the synchronized frequency.
  5. Repeat this process for all bodypack receivers.

Operating Instructions

Power On/Off

  • To power on the transmitter, press the "Power switch" on the front panel.
  • To power on a bodypack receiver, press and hold the "Switch Button" until the LED display illuminates.
  • To power off, repeat the respective steps.

Channel Selection

The system supports 16 switchable frequencies within the 550 MHz - 580 MHz range.

  • On the transmitter, use the "Setup selection" and "Down Select" buttons to cycle through available frequencies.
  • On the bodypack receiver, use the "Channel up/down button" to change channels. Ensure the receiver is paired with the transmitter's selected channel via infrared pairing if changing channels after initial setup.

Volume Control

  • Transmitter: Adjust the "Headphone volume potentiometer" for monitoring directly from the transmitter. Adjust "Left channel input/volume control potentiometer" and "Right channel input/volume control potentiometer" for input levels.
  • Bodypack Receiver: Use the "Volume Adjustment Knob" to control the earphone volume.
