Antenna Input Connector A Power Switch and Indicator: When the switch is turned on the red indicator illuminates to denote normal power status. RF Signal Level Indicator: Indicates the RF signal strength received from the microphone. As soon as the signal is emitted from the microphone the LED indicator illuminates.
DC 12V Input Jack: Connect the 12V DC plug from the AC/DC adapter. Balanced Audio Output Jack: XLR type connector Unbalanced Audio Output Jack: 1/4" Phone Jack Unbalanced Level Switch: “LOW selection is for “Microphone-Level” output. “HIGH” selection is for “Line-Out” level output.

Audio Output Connection: Unbalanced Level Switch Setting Position: Make sure to match the unbalanced output setting to the device input setting. The incorrect setting could result in low sensitivity level or over load distortion. Ex. (If you are going into the “Line” input on a mixer or amplifier then the switch should be set to the high position.

Caution Since the installation of the antenna influences the operating efficiency of the receiver, the most important rule is to minimize the distance as much as possible between the receiving antenna and the microphone for the best reception and performance. The output voltage of the external DC power supply should not be below 12V, otherwise it will not work properly.
HANDHELD WIRELESS MICROPHONE The Peavey Pro Comm PCX-V12 handheld wireless microphone is a modular design. It also incorporates “Superior frequency tracking and muting techniques” dual- squelch to eliminate noise interference.
