μV

What to do ...

왘

Check if the antennas and the antenna cables are correctly connected.

왘

Improve the position of the antennas.

왘

If necessary, use antenna boosters.

AF Max Max. audio level

왘

On your transmitter, adjust the audio level as high as possible without the level display for audio level showing full deflection (AF Max is at a level with the

PEAK display).

For more information, refer to the instruction manual of the transmitter.

Synchronizing a transmitter with the receiver

When synchronizing a transmitter with a receiver, please observe the following:

왘

Only use a transmitter and a receiver from the same frequency range (see the type plate on the transmitter and the receiver).

왘

Make sure that the desired frequencies are listed in the enclosed frequency information sheet.

왘

Make sure that the desired frequencies are approved and legal in your country and, if necessary, apply for an operating license.

Synchronizing a transmitter with the receiver – individual operation

Upon delivery, transmitter and receiver are synchronized with each other. However, if you cannot establish a transmission link between transmitter and receiver, you have to synchronize the channels of the devices:

왘

With the receiver, perform a frequency preset scan to scan the frequency banks for unused channels (“ Scan New List

”, see page 17).

Adjustment tips

왘

Select a channel on your receiver (“ Current List

”, see page 17).

The receiving frequency of the channel must be approved and legal in your country

(see above).

왘

Synchronize a transmitter with the receiver via the infra-red interface (see page 13).

This establishes a transmission link between the transmitter and the receiver.

Alternatively, you can set the channel on the transmitter manually:

왘

Make sure that you set the transmitter to the same frequency bank and the same channel as the receiver.

For information on the setting options of the transmitter, refer to the instruction manual of the transmitter.

Synchronizing transmitters with receivers – multi-channel operation

왘

Switch off all transmitters of your system that are to be automatically configured.

Channels used by switched-on transmitters are displayed as “used”.

왘

With one of the receivers, perform a frequency preset scan to scan the frequency banks for unused channels (“ Scan New List

”, see page 17).

왘

Select a channel on this receiver (“ Current List

”, see page 17).

The receiving frequency of the channel must be approved and legal in your country

(see above).

왘

Synchronize a transmitter with the receiver via the infra-red interface (see page 13).

This establishes a transmission link between the transmitter and the receiver.

왘

Repeat for the remaining transmitter and receiver pairs as described above.

Your multi-channel system is now set up.

Alternatively, you can set the channel on the transmitter manually:

왘

Make sure that you set the transmitter to the same frequency bank and the same channel as the receiver.

For information on the setting options of the transmitter, refer to the instruction manual of the transmitter.

You can also freely select the receiving frequencies and store these frequencies in the frequency bank “ U ”.

If you are using the frequency bank “ U ”, it might be that the receiving frequencies are not intermodulation-free:

왘

For possible frequency combinations, please refer to the frequency information sheet or calculate the frequencies (see below).

If you want to use the frequency bank “ U ”:

왘

Make sure to use receivers of the same frequency range (see page 4 and the type plate

of the receiver).

왘

Only use frequencies that are approved and legal in your country (see page 19).

To ensure that the desired frequencies are intermodulation-free, proceed as follows:

왘

Calculate intermodulation-free frequencies using the “ Sennheiser Intermodulation and Frequency Management (SIFM) ” software (see www.sennheiser.com).

왘

Set each receiver to the same frequency bank.

왘

On one of the receivers, select a channel within this frequency bank (see page 18).

Cleaning the receiver

왘

Assign this channel one of the calculated receiving frequencies (see page 18).

왘

Synchronize a transmitter with the receiver (see page 13)

왘

Manually set the transmitter to the same frequency bank, channel and frequency that you set on the receiver.

왘

Repeat for the remaining transmitters and receivers as described above.

CAUTION!

Cleaning the receiver

Liquids can damage the electronics of the receiver!

Liquids entering the housing of the device can cause a short-circuit and damage the electronics.

왘

Keep all liquids away from the receiver.

왘

Before cleaning, disconnect the device from the mains.

왘

Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the receiver from time to time. Do not use any solvents or cleansing agents.
