SOME SUGGESTIONS
- Avoid using the wireless microphone near possible sources of radio interference such as transmitting antennas or high-voltage cables.
- Your new wireless microphone is endowed with several channels that can be changed to avoid local interference. Avoid anyway to use more than 3 receivers together, because they could interfere with each other. Our staff is at your disposal to give you suitable solutions if you need to use many microphones contemporarily.
- Always check the charge status of the transmitters’ batteries. A bad reception is often due to the batteries close to discharge.
- Avoid placing the microphone near speakers or loudspeakers as it could trigger annoying whistling (Larsen effects).
- If possible avoid using the wireless microphones in environments with thick walls between the transmitter and the receiver. In open space, wireless microphones can operate at considerable distances.
- In case of signal dropouts try to move the microphone even just a few centimetres.
Handheld Microphone
- Each microphone can operate only together with its receiver. The frequency of the receiver and the transmitter must be the same to work correctly.
- Press the (B) button to turn on the microphone. The display (A) will show the main information.
- To replace the batteries unscrew the (C) microphone’s cap.
- In case of interferences, you can try to change the transmission frequency, by choosing one of the 16 available. To do that remove the cover (C) by rotating it counterclockwise, then use the key (E). Each time you press this key, the frequency will also vary on the receiver base. For this reason in this stage, the receiver must be turned on.
- In the dual version, you can distinguish the microphones by the color of the bottom (D).
Bodypack with Headset
- Each microphone can operate only together with its receiver. The frequency of the receiver and the transmitter must be the same to work correctly.
- Press the (H) key to turn on the microphone. The display (I) will show the main information.
- To replace the batteries open the bodypack’s compartment (J).
- In case of interferences, you can try to change the transmission frequency, by choosing one of the 16 available. To do that open the cover (J) and use the small key inside the compartment. Each time you press this key, the frequency will also vary on the receiver base. For this reason in this stage, the receiver must be turned on.
- The headset is to be connected to the upper socket (G) which is a 3,5mm mono screw type.
- Take care to extend the antenna (F) for a better reception.
