Introduction

The Venue Wideband receiver is a modular rack mount

design for use with a wide variety of transmitters from

Lectrosonics and other manufacturers. Designed for

maximum versatility and performance, the wideband

design offers the flexibility needed in today’s changing

and increasingly congested RF environments.

A Venue receiver is a “system” that consists of a master

unit and up to six receiver modules. Two different types

of receiver modules are available. The standard module

(VRS) is an excellent choice for fixed installations where

fairly clear RF spectrum is available. The tracking mod-

ule (VRT) is a more costly alternative, but its tracking

front-end makes it the better choice for use in congest-

ed RF environments. VRpanel software is included to

simplify setup and monitoring.

This guide covers the essential steps and settings

needed to get a Venue system up and running. It covers

the hardware installation, configuration using the LCD

on the master unit, setting up a USB port on the com-

puter and installing the VRpanel software.

LecNet2 software runs under Microsoft Windows

and Windows 7 operating systems.* An online

Help in the software includes a listing of commands

used to control the Venue through the serial ports.
