Multiple System Setup - Shure BLX4RE-H8E Online User's Manual

Multiple System Setup

Up to 12 systems can operate simultaneously (band and RF environment dependent).
Important: Set up each system one-at-a-time. Once a receiver and transmitter are tuned to the same group and channel, leave the transmitter powered on.
Otherwise, scans from the other receivers will not detect that channel as occupied. For the BLX88, be sure to setup both transmitters before progressing to the
next receiver.
Turn on any other equipment that could cause interference during the performance so it will be detected during the group and channel scans in the following
steps.
Before you begin system set up, turn all receivers ON and all transmitters OFF.
For the first receiver:
1. Perform a group scan.
This finds the group with the most clear channels.
Note: For the BLX88, the group scan sets up both receivers at the same time.
2. Turn on the first transmitter and change the group and channel to match receiver.
3. Leave the transmitter on and continue with the additional systems.
Note: If the selected group does not contain enough open channels, manually select group "d" when setting up larger systems.
For each additional receiver:
1. Use manual setup to change the receiver to match the group setting of the first receiver. Recall that each time the
group setting is changed, a channel scan is automatically done.
2. Turn on the transmitter and change the group and channel to match the receiver.
3. Leave the transmitter on and continue to the next system.
4. Once all receivers are set up, perform an audio check on all microphones.
