Connecting the Audio Output

The UHF receiver provides both a fixed mic level BALANCED MIC AUDIO OUTPUT XLR (7) and

an adjustable line level AUX AUDIO OUTPUT ¼” JACK (9).

[Note: As when making any connection, make sure the amplifier or mixing board volume is at the

minimum level before plugging in the receiver to avoid possible sound system damage.]

Insert an audio cord with a ¼” mono phone plug in the AUX AUDIO OUTPUT JACK (9) on the

rear panel of the receiver. Plug the other end of the cord into an amplifier, effects, or mixing

board, Adjust the AUX VOLUME CONTROL (8) on the UHF receiver clockwise until the volume

level is comfortable for your application. This setting is roughly equivalent to a direct instrument

cord connection.

Microphone connection (using the transmitter with either a headset or lavalier microphone or the
handheld microphone transmitter)

For Microphone use, either the BALANCED MIC AUDIO OUTPUT XLR (7) or the ¼” line level
AUX AUDIO OUTPUT (9) can be used. The XLR output is set at a nonadjustable microphone
level, similar to wired mic levels. Plug an XLR connector into the XLR output connector on the
rear of the unit and plug the other end into your amplifier or mixing board.

Make sure the volume is turned down when making connections. For your convenience, the XLR
output level is preset at the factory and is not adjustable with the receiver volume control.

The receiver is equipped with an AF PEAK LED INDICATOR (3) which lights with a strong audio
signal from the transmitter. Occasional flickering on loud inputs to the transmitter is normal. If
the LED lights continuously, decrease the volume to the transmitter or overload distortion may
result.

Unscrew the BATTERY COMPARTMENT COVER (13) and remove, exposing the BATTERY

HOLDER (14). Insert a fresh 9V ALKALINE BATTERY (15), observing the correct polarity as

marked, and screw the cover back on to the microphone. Make sure the cover is screwed on

completely. A fresh alkaline battery can last up to 10 hours in use, but in order to ensure

optimum performance, it is recommended that you replace the battery after every 7-8 hours of

use.

Turn on the microphone by sliding the OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (16) to the STANDBY

position (transmitter on, audio muted) or the ON position (transmitter and audio both on). The

BATTERY INDICATOR LED will give a single quick flash, indicating usable battery strength.

In the case of a dead or low battery, the LED will either not illuminate at all or will stay on

continuously, indicating that the battery should be replaced.
