POWER SWITCH
The front-panel power switch allows the receiver to

be switched on and off easily.
SQUELCH ADJUSTMENT
The range of the externally adjustable squelch

control allows you the choice of maximizing range

or lowering the potential for external interference.
REAR PANEL FEATURES
AUDIO OUTPUTS
The MR3000 has both 3-pin XLR-type balanced and

¼-inch unbalanced phone jack output connectors.

The line level output is adjustable with a small

screwdriver (included).
ANTENNA CONNECTORS
The antenna inputs utilize TNC connectors that pro-

vide solid mechanical and electrical connections.
POWER INPUT
The MR3000 will operate from the supplied ac adapter

or any other battery, filtered supply or power pack that

can deliver 12 15 volts AC/DC, 300 mA.
SYSTEM SET-UP AND OPERATION
To prepare the MS3000 System for operation, you

should:
1. Connect the power supply adapter to an AC

outlet that will supply 105 to 125 volts AC, 60

Hz. Other power supply adapters are available

for 210 240 volt, 50 60 Hz operation. Make

sure that you have the correct power supply for

your locality.

2. Connect the MR3000 to your audio system us-

ing the appropriate connector on the rear panel.

It is preferable to use the 3-pin XLR connector

since its balanced circuitry minimizes the poten-

tial for electrical interference and can be used

with long cable runs.

3. Switch on the receiver with the front-panel

power switch.

4. Attach either the supplied ¼-wave antennas or

two externally mounted antennas to the antenna

connectors on the rear panel of the MR3000.

Be sure and tighten the connectors securely. If

the supplied ¼-wave antennas are used, they

must be oriented at a 90

angle as shown in

Figure 1. Unlike other diversity wireless sys-

tems, two antennas are needed for the

MS3000 to operate correctly.

5. Open the battery compartment door on the

handheld transmitter or the bodypack and install

a 9-volt alkaline battery (see Figures 3 and 4).

8.4 volt Ni-Cad batteries may be used but will

yield noticeably shorter operational time and

slightly lower performance.
