The Venue 2 receiver mainframe (VRM2) serves as
a “host assembly” for up to six receiver modules. The
tracking receiver module (VRT2) can be mixed and
matched in the assembly in any combination to suit the
needs of various applications.
The mainframe front panel provides an LCD for system
setup, monitoring and troubleshooting. During normal
operation, the LCD shows RF and audio levels, diversity
status, pilot tone status (where applicable) and transmit-
ter battery status (in certain modes) for all six receivers
at the same time. Individual screens for each receiver
provide additional information and adjustments.
A built-in analyzer scans the tunable spectrum of the
receiver to assist in finding clear operating frequencies.
The spectrum scan data is presented in a graphical
format on the LCD.
POWER Button
Turns the power on and off. A brief press also clears the
spectrum scan data after the spectrum analyzer has
been used. Press and hold the button for a few seconds
to turn the unit off.
Function Button
Used for various functions in selected Setup Screens as
labeled on the LCD.
BACK Button
The Back Button is used to return to the previous menu
or setup screen.
LCD Screen
The LCD is a backlit, graphics-type Liquid Crystal
Display used to set up and monitor system operation.
Receiver Select Buttons
The six Receiver Select Buttons are used to select
individual installed receiver modules, for monitoring
via the PHONES jack and for setup and adjustment.
PUSH FOR MENU/SELECT Rotary Control
This control, called the MENU/SELECT control for
short, is a pushbutton switch and rotary knob used for
navigating and selecting setup menus and screens,
and for selecting parameters within the setup screens.
PHONES Jack and LEVEL Control
The LEVEL control is used to adjust the output level
of the front panel PHONES jack for individual channel
monitoring. It does not affect the output levels at the
rear panel XLR jacks. Only the audio from a single
receiver (or a diversity pair) selected via the Receiver
Select Buttons will be present at this jack.
The PHONES jack can also used as an audio output
for recording when using the Walk Test Recorder.
