Single System Set Up
Before you begin, turn off all transmitters and turn on any equipment
(other microphones or personal monitoring systems) that could cause
interference during the performance.
1. Press and release the group button on the receiver.
The receiver scans for the clearest group and channel.
Note; If you want to stop the scan, push the group button again .
2. Turn on transmitter and change the group and channel to match the
receiver (See Setting Transmitter Group and Channel).
Once the system is set up, perform an audio check and adjust the gain if
necessary.
Multiple System Set Up
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.
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 to find the group with the most clear channels.
2. Turn on the first transmitter and change the group and channel to match
the 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. Manually 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.

channel setting for about two seconds.
