The battery level may not be displayed correctly when
different kinds of batteries, different brand of batteries,
or old batteries are used. If using batteries other than
size AA alkaline batteries, select the battery type using
the BATTERY TYPE function.
• If you plan to use the transmitter continuously for a long
period of time, it is recommended that you replace the
batteries with brand new ones.
• Battery power is gradually consumed, even when the
unit is turned off. Remove the batteries from the unit
before prolonged periods of disuse.
For details on the BATTERY TYPE function setting, see
“Setting the battery type (BATTERY TYPE)”
(URX-P40: page 33, URX-P41D: page 35, UTX-B40/
M40/P40: page 43).
Battery precautions
Batteries may leak or explode if mistreated. Be sure to
follow these instructions.
• Insert batteries in the correct
3
and
#
polarity
orientation.
• Always replace the two batteries together with new
ones.
• Do not use different types of batteries or old and new
ones together.
• Batteries cannot be charged with this unit.
• When not using the device for a long period of time,
remove the batteries. If the batteries leak for any reason,
consult your Sony service representative.
Supplying power from a USB
connector
The transmitter (UTX-B40/P40) and tuner (URX-P40/
P41D) can operate from a commercially available USB-
output type AC adaptor or portable power supply
connected to the USB connector.
When supplying power using a USB-output type AC
adaptor or portable power supply, use a unit that satisfies
the following conditions.
• Output connector: USB Type-C
• Rated voltage: 5 V
• Output current: 200 mA or higher
Displays “USB” when power is supplied from the USB
connector.
• The UTX-M40 hand-held microphone cannot be
supplied using a USB connector.
• Noise may occur in the audio depending on the AC
adaptor or portable power supply that is connected. In
such cases, you can reduce the noise by distancing the
unit or lavalier microphone from the AC adaptor or
portable power supply or otherwise altering their
positions.
• If a USB Type-C adaptor (from a different connector
type) or a cable that does not comply with the USB
Type-C standard is used, noise may occur or power may
not be applied correctly. Always use cables that comply
with the USB Type-C standard.
Supplying power from an SMAD-P5
(option)
The portable diversity tuner (URX-P40/P41D) can
operate with cameras equipped with a multi-interface
shoe, such as Sony video camera recorders and digital
cameras that use an interchangeable lens, by connecting
an SMAD-P5 (option) to the auxiliary connector. In
addition, the power supply of the tuner and the camera
can be linked.
By connecting this unit to an SMAD-P5 (option) and
attaching to a camera equipped with a multi-interface
shoe, audio signals can be sent from the tuner to the
camera without the need for a cable. In addition, when
connected to a camera equipped with a multi-interface
shoe that supports digital audio input, the digital audio
signal output from the tuner can be recorded directly by
the camera.
Refer to the SMAD-P5 (option) operating instructions for
details on how to attach it to the camera, how to link the
power supply of the tuner with the camera, and how to
switch the audio signal.
When used with some cameras, operation of the power
supply function and link on/off function with the
SMAD-P5 (option) is not guaranteed.
For details, refer to the SMAD-P5 (option) operating
instructions. For camera device information, visit the
Sony website.
