OK, if so far you remember all the functions and features of your Mod16 System
you are ready to operate the Unit. Let's start from the Receiver:
4. Operation
First, turn the Unit ON. With your Transmitter in ON position, check the Channel
Number indicated on the Transmitter display. Now, press the UP/DOWN keys until
the same value is shown on the double digit display of your MOD-16 Receiver. Once
Receiver and Transmitter are synchronized the LED Meters for Audio signal and
Radio frequency will light up.
- Audio Output Level
The volume control knob adjusts the amount of audio signal to be sent to the
mixing desk through the balanced or unbalanced output sockets on the rear
panel. Turn the volume knob clockwise for maximum output and counterclockwise
for minimum output volume.
- Squelch Control:
A squelch circuit is responsible to minimize audible noise during operation.
Such circuit will mute the Receiver every time the incoming audio signal
drops below a certain threshold. You must use the squelch control with
maximum care. If the threshold is too high the squelch circuit will not only
cut the noise but also mute certain low-level audio signals. Please experiment
various threshold levels before Live operation and choose the most appropriate
for your event.
Antenna: It is a flexible antenna. To get effective transmission, never cover the
antenna with hand, clothes, etc during the operation, and always position the
transmitter nearby the receiver.

And now that you know how to operate your Mod16PRO Receiver, let's learn how
to use the MOD-16 Transmitters. The following instructions apply both to the
handheld version and to the bodypack version.
There are 2 keys on the Transmitter labelled CH/ON and SELECT.
In your Transmitter there are 100 frequencies. Each Group according
to EMC regulations.
To select a frequency you must first switch your Transmitter ON by
pressing the CH/ON key for a few seconds until you hear the beep
and the blue display is lighted. Then press the CH/ON key again slightly
and you will access the CHANNEL menu. At this point use the SELECT
key to change the frequency value from 1 to 99. Your setting will be
automatically saved in a few seconds and the display will go back to
the main menu showing the operating frequency.
