Lectrosonics R400 - Manual (Page 9)

Portable Wireless Sound System
The R400 Menu Functions are entered from the Main
Window by pressing the MENU control. Navigate from
the TopMenu through subsequent submenus and set­
tings by rotating the MENU control to select the desired
menu then push it to enter the selected menu.
MENU FUNCTIONS
The R400 Menu functions can be divided into three main
functional areas: setting up the receiver, locking the
receiver and scanning for clear frequencies.
SetUpRx
The SetUpRx menu accesses the menus used to control
the operation and compatibility mode of the receiver.
These include: Freq, Level, Tuning, Compat, Tone,
PilotBP, Phase, TxBatt and SmartNR.
Freq
The Freq setup screen displays the TV channel (which
television broadcast channel this frequency falls within),
the associated transmitter Frequency Select Switch
settings (C3 in the illustration) and the selected operat­
ing frequency. To change the operating frequency, rotate
the MENU control. Exit this setup screen by pressing
the PREV MENU button. The unit will power up on the
frequency last set by the user.
Note
If the operating frequency is changed, ensure that the Frequency
Select Switch settings of the associated transmitter match the
settings shown in the upper right hand corner of this display.
Level
The Level setup screen displays the audio output level of
the receiver in dBu. Rotate the MENU control clockwise
to increase the level, or counterclockwise to decrease
the level. The range is from -50 dBu to +5 dBu in 1 dB
increments. Exit this setup screen by pressing the PREV
MENU button.
Tuning
The Tuning setup screen allows selection of one of four
factory set frequency groups (Fact Grp A through D) or
two user programmable frequency groups (User Grp U
and V).
To select group tuning mode, or to return to normal (non­
group tuning), navigate through the SetUpRx menu to
the Tuning setup screen and press the MENU control.
Rotate the MENU control to display the desired factory
or user group, then press the PREV MENU button to
select that group and return to the SetUpRx screen.
(See Installation and Operation, Programming User
Groups.)
Use the MENU control to navigate through the SetUpRx
menu to Freq, then press the MENU control to enter that
setup screen. Rotate the MENU control to the desired
operating frequency from the previously selected fre­
quency group. Press the PREV MENU button to select
this frequency and return to the Main Window.
The Main Window will display either the current fre­
quency and frequency group or NORM (if no group
selected).
Compat
The Compat setup screen is used to select the compat­
ibility mode, allowing the R400 to operate with a variety
of transmitters. The available compatibility modes are:
400 - This is the factory default setting and works with
all Lectrosonics 400 Series Digital Hybrid
Wireless
™ transmitters. This mode offers the
best audio quality.
100 - This mode works with all Lectrosonics 100
Series compatible transmitters.
200 - This mode works with all Lectrosonics 200
Series compatible transmitters.
MODE 3 - This mode works with a number of non-
Lectrosonics analog transmitters. Contact the
company for a list of compatible transmitters.
IFB - This mode works with all Lectrosonics IFB
compatible transmitters. (Firmware version 1.5
and later.)
Tone
The Tone setup screen switches from received audio to
an internally generated 1 kHz audio test tone at the
receiver XLR output for precise level matching with other
equipment without actually going "on the air." The level
can be adjusted in 1 dB increments by rotating the
MENU control. The test tone has 1% distortion and is
intended for confirmation of output levels only. Exit this
setup screen by pressing the PREV MENU button.
Warning
There is only one audio output level setting for both received audio
and the setup tone. The level set here will be retained in the receive
mode (superseding settings made in the LEVEL setup screen).
PilotBP
The R400 always powers up with the pilot tone bypass
mode disabled (a pilot tone is required from the transmit­
ter to unsquelch the receiver). To enable pilot tone
bypass mode, in the PilotBP window, rotate the MENU
control to select BYPASS, then press the PREV MENU
button.
To return to normal operating mode (pilot tone bypass
mode disabled), rotate the MENU control to select
NORMAL, then press the PREV MENU button Exit this
setup screen by pressing the PREV MENU button.
Note
No Pilot Tone is used in 100 Series or Mode 3 Compatibility Modes,
so therefore this function is not offered for those modes.
Phase
The default value for receiver audio output is IN PHASE
in regard to the audio signal from the transmitter. To
invert the receiver's audio output, enter the Phase setup
screen, rotate the MENU control to select INVERT. To
restore the receiver's audio output to "In Phase," select
