Insert 4 cage nuts in the openings on the rack posts where you want to mount the receiver(s).
Position the receiver(s) in front of the rack posts so that the 4 x mounting openings on the mounting brackets face the openings on the rack posts with cage nuts.
Use a screwdriver to mount the receiver(s) to the rack posts with 4 screws.
Install the bodypack. See 4.2.3. Installation of the Bodypack on page 15 for more information.

Single Receiver

Attach the supplied long and short mounting brackets with the mounting screws to the receiver.
Use a Philips screwdriver to tighten the mounting screws.

Two Receivers

Attach the supplied short mounting brackets with the mounting screws to the receivers. Use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the mounting screws.
Attach the supplied mounting plate with the mounting screws to the bottom of both receivers. Use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the mounting screws.

Installation of the Bodypack
Use the belt clip (27) on the device to fasten it to your clothes. Flip the belt clip (27) for best comfort. The antenna (22) shall always point upwards.

Setup

Attention

Connect all data cables before supplying power.
Disconnect power supply before connecting or disconnecting data cables.

To set up the wireless bodypack system, follow the steps below:

Install the antennas. See 4.3.1. Installation of the Antennas on page 16.
Connect the receiver to power supply. See 4.3.2. Connecting to Power Supply and 4.3.2.1. Power Linking of Multiple Devices on pages 16–17.
Connect other EDGE devices to the receiver(s). See 4.3.3. Setup Example on page 17.
Connect a mixer/amplifier to the receiver(s). See 4.3.4. Connecting the Receiver to Mixer/Amplifier on page 18.
Switch on the receiver. See 4.3.5. Switching ON/OFF – Receiver on page 18.
Install the batteries in the transmitter. See 4.3.6. Installation of the Batteries on page 18.
Connect the headset, microphone or an instrument to the transmitter. See 4.3.7. Connecting Headset/Microphone/Instrument on page 18.
Switch on the transmitter. See 4.3.8. Switching ON/OFF – Transmitter on page 19.
Pair the transmitter with the receiver. See 4.3.9. Pairing on page 19.
Switch on the connected mixer/amplifier.

Installation of the Antennas
The device is delivered with 2 antennas. The antennas are not connected. To install the antennas:

Insert the 1st antenna into the 12–15 V DC BNC connector (08).
Insert the 2nd antenna into 12–15 V DC BNC connector (11).
Point the antennas away from each other at an angle of 45° (Fig. 13).

Note:

Do not use the antennas near metal surfaces or other obstructions.
Make sure that the antennas do not cross when multiple wireless systems are used.

Connecting to Power Supply

Attention
Incorrect handling of the AC power adapter may result in hazardous situations

This device is delivered with an AC power adapter. Incorrect handling of the AC power adapter may result in hazardous situations.

Connect the receiver to the socket outlet with the delivered AC power adapter. Use only the AC power adapter delivered with the device.
Make sure that the socket outlet is easily accessible.
Disconnect the AC power adapter from the socket outlet when the device is not in use.

Power Linking of Multiple Devices

This receiver supports power linking. Power can be relayed to another receiver via the 12–15 V DC power connector OUT (19).
Power linking of multiple devices must be carried out only by instructed or skilled persons.

To prevent overload of the electrical circuit, when power linking multiple devices:

Use cables with sufficient current-carrying capacity. The power adapter supplied with the device is not suitable for power linking of multiple devices.
Make sure that the total current draw of the device and all connected devices does not exceed the rated capacity of the power adapter, power cables and the circuit breaker.
Do not link more devices on one power link than the maximum recommended number.

Setup Example

It is possible to connect up to 8 receivers and 16 transmitters and to install accessories. See 3.5. Optional Accessories on page 11 for more information.
The unidirectional/omnidirectional antennas receive the signal from the transmitter(s) and send it to the first receiver. The first receiver sends the signal to the other connected receivers.
Connect the 12–15 V DC BNC cascade connectors (12/21) of the first receiver to the 12–15 V DC BNC connectors (08/11) of the second receiver. Repeat this step to connect multiple receivers as shown in Fig. 14.
The unidirectional/omnidirectional antennas are not supplied with the device. See 3.5. Optional Accessories on page 11.

Connecting the Receiver to Mixer/Amplifier
