OPERATION
Power On/Off
Turn on the PRO-XRT by pressing and holding the Power Button
② for 1 second. It may take a few seconds for the transmitter and
receiver to connect and show solid green Signal Indicator
⑨ lights.
Power Indicator
The Power Indicator light ⑩ will change color or blink to show the remaining battery capacity.
GREEN: more than 50% battery remains / ORANGE: between 30-50% battery remains / RED: 10-30% battery remains.
BLINKING RED: Less than 10% battery remains. Charge soon or risk losing audio.
Signal Indicator
The Signal Indicator
⑨ on the transmitter will let you know the status of the connection and the transmission power: When this light
is lit SOLID GREEN it means the unit is broadcasting a wireless signal. If this light is FLASHING GREEN, it indicates that the
transmitter is in pairing mode and trying to establish a connection. See detailed instructions on Pairing on page 7. See below for
transmission power status.
Transmission Power
The PRO-XRT unit can transmit its signal at 3 different intensities: 20 mW, 50 mW and 100 mW. While the unit is on, the
transmission power can be changed by pressing (hold for 1 second) the Transmission Power Button
③. The default setting is 20
mW and will always reset to this default each time the unit is powered on. GREEN indicates the default 20 mW output power. The
Signal Indicator
⑨ will turn YELLOW to indicate 50 mW transmission, and RED to indicate 100 mW transmission.
Input Selector
The Input Selector Switch
④ selects the audio input source and has 3 positions. Moving the switch towards the microphone icon
selects the Microphone Input
⑧. Moving the switch towards the words “AUX IN” selects the Aux Input ⑤. Setting the switch in the
middle will allow you to use both inputs simultaneously.
Microphone & Aux Inputs
The PRO-XRT has two audio inputs. The Microphone Input
⑧ is a 3.5 mm, unbalanced TRS jack located at the top of the unit and is
designed to accept a mono, microphone level signal. Plug the EX-507XR lapel microphone into this input. The Aux Input
⑤ is a 3.5
mm unbalanced TRS jack located on the side of the unit and is designed to accept a stereo, line level signal (however, the system
will sum this to mono for transmission). Read more about the AUX input on page 10.
Charging
Charge the transmitter by plugging one of the mini ends of the USB dual-charging cable into the Mini USB Charging Port
⑪ and
then plug the USB-A end into the included AC adapter (to be plugged into a power socket). During charging the Power Indicator
⑩
will FLASH GREEN; once the battery is full, this light will turn off. Read more about charging on page 10.
Reset
The Reset Button
⑦ acts as an emergency off switch in case the unit’s Power Button ② becomes unresponsive.

Use With a Camera
The PRO-XR receiver comes with a standard camera shoe mount attached for easy mounting to a DSLR camera,
mirrorless camera, or camcorder. To mount the receiver, slide the shoe mount into the camera’s accessory shoe
slot. Tighten the thumbwheel to secure the receiver in the shoe slot.
3.5 mm Mic Inputs: Your camera must be equipped with a 3.5 mm microphone input jack in order to use the
PRO-XR system with it. Connect the receiver’s MIC OUT jack to your camera’s microphone input jack using the
included Audio Output Cable. Once connected, most cameras will automatically detect that there is an external
microphone being used. However, some cameras may require that you manually select the input audio source.
Be sure to check your camera’s manual.
XLR Inputs: Some large-format, professional cameras may only have XLR inputs available for microphone
connections. If you wish to use the PRO-XR system with an XLR microphone input, this can be done with
Azden’s MX-2 Mini to XLR Stereo Y Cable (sold separately). While the MX-2 provides 2 male XLR connectors, it
is only necessary to connect 1 to your equipment (does not matter which). Compatibility with balanced XLR
inputs using any other cable cannot be guaranteed.
Use With Mobile Devices
The PRO-XR may be used with smartphones and tablets for mobile video shooting and live streaming. The
PRO-XR system comes with two mobile adapter cables, both of which may be needed in order to use the system
with your mobile device. These adapter cables should grant compatibility with current Apple iPhone and iPad
models, Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets, as well as many other popular Android phones and tablets.
Also included in the box is a Smartphone Mount to facilitate the mounting of the PRO-XR receiver to your
smartphone, and your smartphone to a tripod or mobile grip.
