Operation

With levels turned down, connect a 6.3mm jack lead from the receiver to the P.A. system or mixer and extend the antenna vertical to the receiver unit.

On the handheld transmitter, with the POWER switch off, unscrew the battery cover and connect a good 9V (PP3) battery to the contacts, taking note that the “+” and “-” connections are correct.

With the VOLUME control turned fully down (anticlockwise), connect the DC adapter to the receiver unit and then into the mains outlet, making sure that the adapter and lead are in good condition.

Switch on the POWER on the handheld transmitter and check that the RF LED is illuminated on the receiver. Switch off the MUTE and speak loudly into the microphone, checking that the AUDIO PEAK LED on the receiver flashes with the loudest sounds.

Turn up the level on the P.A. system or mixer and then turn up the VOLUME control (clockwise) on the receiver. The microphone should now be heard through the P.A. system or mixer.

After use, turn down the level on the P.A. system or mixer and then turn down the VOLUME on the receiver, MUTE the transmitter and switch off POWER

Disconnect the receiver from the P.A. system and then unplug from the mains

If not used for a long period of time, remove the battery from the transmitter.
