System Operation (Continued)
Turning on the Transmitter
Turn on the transmitter by holding the Power/Mute button (see Figure J/K on page [--]) for a second or
two, until the dual-color Power/Mute indicator lights green and the backlit LCD display comes on. (When
using a handheld transmitter, unscrew and slide down the lower body cover, as shown in Figures N/P on
page [--].)
Setting Transmitter Frequency
Touch: A momentary press of the Mode/Set button. It is used to enter Menu mode, to enter Edit mode,
or to Escape without making any changes to current settings.
Hold: A press and hold (about two seconds) of the Mode/Set button. It is used to accept a new setting
when the receiver is in Edit mode or to save the current settings to one of the five user-defined name
presets or the internal memory location (“NAME?”).
1. Touch the Set button once. The small word “MENU” appears above the frequency. Touch the Set
button again and the small flashing word “EDIT” appears to the right of “MENU.”
2. Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to change the first three digits (MHz) to the desired frequency.
3. Press Set button once to set the first three digits to the desired frequency.
4. Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to change the second three digits (kHz) to the desired frequency.
5. To activate this frequency selection, press and hold the Set button until the word “STORED” appears in
the transmitter’s window. (If you do not wish to complete this particular selection, just press the Set
button once. The word “ESCAPE” will appear briefly in the window and the transmitter will return to the
Menu mode.)
6. When finished entering a frequency, touch the Up arrow button once to move to “QUIT.” Then touch
the Set button once to exit the menu. The word “MENU” in the transmitter window disappears,
indicating the return to normal operation.
7. If desired, assign a standard or custom Preset Name at this time as described on page [--] (To store
Preset configurations), so this particular configuration can be recalled in the future. If a new name is not
assigned, the transmitter will continue to operate on this frequency (and with these settings) until some
other change in settings is made.
When the transmitter is switched on and in normal operation, the receiver’s two “RF” signal-level bar
meters will display from bottom to top, with more bars indicating increased signal reception. For
optimum performance, at least four bars, and preferably five or more bars, on at least one of the RF
indicators should be displayed at all times.
Setting Levels
Correct adjustment of transmitter audio input, receiver audio output, and mixer/amplifier input and
output levels is important for optimum system performance.
