Lectrosonics MM200 - QSG - Manual

Water-resistant Transmitter
Users Quick Guide
If you are using the MM200 in a wet environment (immersion, perspiration, rain scenes etc) - be certain all 0-rings are intact
and that a waterproof mic connector (from Lectrosonics, properly installed and sealed) is used on the microphone cable.
WARNING! TO PREVENT WATER DAMAGE or INTERNAL CORROSION!
If the transmitter is wet (either due to immersion or high levels of perspiration), DO NOT OPEN any covers or connectors.
BEFORE OPENING, carefully blot the transmitter dry with a clean paper towel or cloth. Remove all visible signs of
moisture and tap the transmitter on a soft surface such as your hand to shake any retained mositure loose from under the 0-
rings. After opening any connector or cover, carefully blot up any remaining moisture that may have remained around the
seal or fallen into the threads. THIS IS IMPORTANT! DO NOT CLOSE ANY COVER OR CONNECTOR BEFORE
MAKING CERTAIN THERE IS NO MOISTURE IN OR NEAR THE OPENING. After use, it is critical to store the
transmitter in a dry place with all covers and connectors opened to allow any internal humidity to evaporate. Do NOT
store wet or sealed up.
A standard 2.5mm tip1sleeve connector can be used with most positive bias lavalier microphones if water protection is not
necessary. DO NOT IMMERSE if the water resistant connector provided by Lectrosonics is not used.

To reverse or remove belt clip -
pull the belt clip ends out of the
case holes to remove or reverse the
belt clip - the clip will work with
antenna up or antenna down
configurations.
To set the mic level - turn the level
adjustment knob (between the antenna and
the microphone connector until normal
sound levels cause both LEDs to flash green.
The LED's turning Red indicates limiting
(occasional red is fine).
To set frequency - unscrew the small
knurled knob at the bottom of the
transmitter for 5 full turns. The knob will
then move an additonal 118" before it hits
the retaining threads. It does not need to be
taken completely out. Carefully pull up the
frequency cover plate. The switches are
labeled underneath the plate. Set the
switches to match the switch settings
shown on the receiver.
To turn Unit on - insert a dry AA battery into
the battery compartment positive end first. The
cover is the power switch. Tightening it
activates the unit. Turn the battery compartment
cover until the Power LED lights and the 0-
ring is slightly compressed. To turn off
temporarily, loosen the battery cover knob two
full turns. For longer off periods, you can
reverse the battery and tighten the cover to put
light pressure on the reversed battery. For storage periods greater
than a day or two, or if unit has been in a high water environment -
see the warning above for storage instructions.
This unit is a DSP based transmitter than can be upgraded later to the MM400 digital hybrid. It will then be fully compatible
with the 400 series Digital Hybrid wireless. The 400 series is a digital based system with no compandor artifacts.
Power output 100mW.
Battery AA - Lithium recommended - rechargeable NiMH or Alkaline are also acceptable but battery life will be
shorter. Alkaline batteries will not work well at low temperatures.
Battery life Expected battery life is approximately 5 hours with a AA lithium cell, 1.5 to 2 hours with a alkaline cell at
72 deg F or higher. Rechargeable NiMH can also be used - expect approximately 2-2.5 hours from a
1700mAh NiMH battery.
