3 Setting Up

L
• Prior to setting up your WMS 40 system, check that the transmitter and receiver
are tuned to the same frequency. The easiest way to do this is to compare the
color codes on the transmitter and receiver.
• You can either use the receiver freestanding or mount it in a 19" rack using the optional
RMU 40 PRO rack mounting kit. For instructions on how to rack mount the receiver, refer
to the RMU 40 PRO manual.
• Reflections off metal parts, walls, ceilings, etc. or the shadow effects of musicians and
other people may weaken or cancel the direct transmitter signal.
For best results, place the receiver as follows:
1. Place the receiver near the performance area (stage). Make sure, though, that the
transmitter will never get any closer to the receiver than 10 ft (3 m). Optimum sep-
aration is 16 ft. (5 m).
2. Check that you can see the receiver from where you will be using the transmitter.
3. Place the receiver at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) away from any big metal objects, walls, scaf-
folding, ceilings, etc.
1. Use a balanced cable with an XLR connector and 1/4" TRS jack plug (available from
electronics or hi-fi stores).
2. Connect the AUDIO OUT jack on the receiver rear panel to the desired balanced (XLR)
microphone input on the mixer or amplifier.
3. Turn the VOLUME control on the receiver all the way CCW to set the receiver output to
mic level.
1. Use a standard 1/4" jack cable to connect the AUDIO OUT jack on the receiver rear panel
to an unbalanced 1/4" line input jack on the mixer or amplifier.
2. Turn the VOLUME control on the receiver all the way CW to set the receiver output to line
level.

• To avoid hum interference, do not use any audio cables that are longer than
10 feet (3 m)!
