Portable Wireless Sound System
Multiple Long Ranger Systems
A unique use of the AUX IN/OUT jack is for connecting
two Long Ranger systems together for simultaneous
use. When connected in this manner, they will operate
like a single system. It is best to use two different Long
Ranger units that operate on different frequencies. Any
input on either Long Ranger will appear at both speak
ers. If the Long Ranger systems are on the same fre
quency, only one transmitter can be used at any given
moment.
Second channel (add-on) wireless systems on either
(or both) Long Ranger systems will work fine, as long
as they are all on different frequencies. Each wireless
microphone will have its own volume control. The built-
in wireless in each Long Ranger will be controlled by
the left-hand knob on the matching unit. The volume of
each add-on wireless system will be controlled by the
right-hand knob on the matching unit. All sound from all
wireless microphones will appear on all loudspeakers,
both built-in or external.
Connect the Long Ranger systems together with a stan
dard RCA (phono) patch cord, male plug to male plug.
It is best to use cords 10 to 12 ft. in length (or less) to
minimize noise that can occur with long cables.
If any of the Long Rangers or add-on wireless system
are on the same frequency, only one transmitter can be
used at a time on that frequency. REMEMBER that if
two transmitters on the same frequency are turned on
at the same time, the receiver will not receive either of
them properly. You will need to “alternate” the use of the
transmitters.
The INITIAL EQUIPMENT ADJUSTMENTS (see page
6) should be performed on each system individually
before the AUX IN/OUT interconnection is made. After
the units are connected together, adjust the volume on
each Long Ranger for the loudness level needed.
