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.
