Training communications
Instructions are often drowned out by ambient noise. The PT 40
Sports System in conjunction with a powered speaker or amp
and speaker reduces the strain on the trainer's voice and gets
their instructions across clearly. The result is better communi-
cation for more efficient training.
Mini XLR connector
A locking 3-pin mini XLR connector pro-
vides a reliable connection to a head-
worn microphone from AKG.
ON/MUTE/OFF switch
Setting the switch to the "MUTE"
position mutes the audio signal,
while the transmitter continues
radiating the RF carrier frequency.
This prevents the receiver from
being disturbed by other transmit-
ters while the microphone is “off
the air”.
Flexible antenna
To maintain perfect transmission, the
antenna should be visible from the recei-
ver location at all times. So make sure
never to cover the antenna with clothes or
other elements of the costume.
Battery status LED
With a minimum battery life of 35 hours, the PT 40
gives you more hours of fun per dollar than most of its
competitors. And if the battery status LED illuminates
after all, don’t panic: you still got 50 minutes before
the batteries are dead so you can easily steal away for
a minute to replace them.
PT 40 Portable transmitter
Wireless microphone systems are becoming
increasingly popular in sports arenas, fit-
ness or dance studios for efficient commu-
nication between athletes and trainers. The
WMS 40 Sports System is a complete solu-
tion designed for the specific needs of ath-
letes and trainers. The head-worn micro-
phone affords maximum mobility. It is rug-
ged, light, and will stay in place even if the
user moves their head abruptly. A flexible
plastic behind-the-neck arch and large sup-
port pads keep the microphone securely in
place without restricting the athlete's field of vision. The flexible microphone arm with
a special moisture shield absorbs mechani-
cal impact and places the microphone near
the corner of the user's mouth. Since the
user will not talk directly into the micro-
phone, it will pick up almost no pop or
breathing noise. The PT 40 bodypack
transmitter features a belt clip for easy and
secure fastening to the user's belt or
clothes. Alternatively, you can use the sup-
plied light, padded neoprene bag that pro-
tects the transmitter from perspiration and
impact. Wireless microphones can be used for many
applications from training at the gym to
championships in any sports, for communi-
cation between trainers and athletes or
direct connection to the sound system at a
stadium.
The WMS 40 Sports System provides tailor-
made speech reinforcement solutions for
gyms, sports clubs, and teams that are easy
to connect to an existing sound system at a
gym, hall, or open-air arena, and guarantee
users the required mobility.
