Setup Steps

The setup menus are accessed by holding either the

UP or DOWN arrow while powering the unit on. Refer

to Setup Screens on the next page for details of each

setup parameter.

The following list outlines the steps necessary to set up

the transmitter for normal use.

1) Install a charged battery.

2) Set the compatibility mode to match the receiver to

be used.

3) Adjust the step size and frequency to match the

receiver. The frequency is normally determined us-

ing the receiver to identify one within clear operat-

ing spectrum. Refer to the receiver instructions for

details on using features such as scanning.

NOTE: Some Lectrosonics receivers include an

IR (infrared) port to transfer settings from the

receiver to the transmitter. Refer to the section on

IR (infrared) Sync for details.

4) Connect the microphone or audio source to be

used. Select the correct input conﬁguration.

5) Adjust the input gain. Refer to Adjusting the Input

Gain for details.

6) Turn on the receiver and verify that solid RF and

audio signals are present (see receiver manual).

Locking the Controls

The ﬁrmware version is displayed brieﬂy when powering

up the transmitter.

For ﬁrmware versions 1.06 and lower:

Lock the controls by holding the UP and DOWN ar-

rows until a count displayed on the LCD is completed

and Loc appears on the LCD. To unlock the controls,

remove the battery.

For ﬁrmware versions 1.07 and higher:

Lock the controls by holding the UP and DOWN arrows

until a count displayed on the LCD is completed and

Loc appears on the LCD. To unlock the controls, hold

the UP and DOWN arrows until a count on the LCD is

completed and unloc appears on the LCD. Removing

the battery does not unlock the controls.

Adjusting the Input Gain

The two bicolor Modulation LEDs on the control panel

provide a visual indication of the audio signal level

entering the transmitter. The LEDs will glow either red

or green to indicate modulation levels as shown in the

following table.

Signal Level -20 LED -10 LED

Less than -20 dB Off Off

-20 dB to -10 dB

Green Off

-10 dB to +0 dB

Green Green

+0 dB to +10 dB Red Green

Greater than +10 dB Red Red

NOTE: Full modulation is achieved at 0 dB, when

the “-20” LED ﬁrst turns red. The limiter can cleanly

handle peaks up to 30 dB above this point.

It is best to go through the following procedure with the

transmitter in the standby mode so that no audio will en-

ter the sound system or recorder during adjustment.

1) With a charged battery in the transmitter, power the

unit on in the standby mode (see previous section

Powering On in Standby Mode).

2) Press and hold the AUDIO button with Aud and a

numeral on the display (e.g. Aud 22).

3) Prepare the signal source. Position a microphone the

way it will be used in actual operation and have the

user speak or sing at the loudest level that occur

during use, or set the output level of the instrument

or audio device to the maximum level that will be

used.

4) Use the

and arrow buttons to adjust the gain until

the –10 dB glows green and the –20 dB LED starts

to ﬂicker red during the loudest peaks in the audio.

5) Once the audio gain has been set, the signal can

be sent through the sound system for overall level

adjustments, monitor settings, etc.

6) If the audio output level of the receiver is too high or

low, use only the controls on the receiver to make

adjustments. Unless the microphone or its position

changes, or a different instrument is being used,

leave the transmitter gain adjustment set accord-

ing to these instructions. Use the audio output level

control on the receiver to make adjustments for

the desired level being delivered to the connected

mixer, recorder, etc.
