Introduction; System Configurations - Audio Technica ARTIST ELITE 4000 Series Installation And Operation Manual

Thank you for choosing an Audio-Technica professional
wireless system. You have joined thousands of other satisfied
customers who have chosen our products because of their
quality, performance and reliability. This Audio-Technica
wireless microphone system is the successful result of years of
design and manufacturing experience.
Recent advances in the quality and sophistication of professional
live-sound systems have been nothing short of revolutionary.
Tours, clubs, broadcast events, corporate facilities and worship
venues sound better than ever, utilizing better system design and
better components in the audio chain.
That's why Audio-Technica has been partnering with industry
professionals on the front line of this revolution – the top
touring companies, award show designers, FOH and monitor
engineers, audio consultants and artists – to learn what it
takes to make the best-sounding, most reliable and consistent
microphones for the live-sound industry.
We listened carefully. Then, we applied this knowledge to
the creation of the Artist Elite
microphones and wireless systems. Our ultimate design goal
was this: Each model must extend the performance of a sound
system, not limit it.
Artist Elite Receivers
Artist Elite 4000 Series and 5000 Series wireless systems by
Audio-Technica share a range of transmitters in common, both
body-pack and handheld types. The difference between the two
series is simply in the choice of receiver:
4000 Series AEW-R4100 half-rack single receiver with
multi-unit, multi-channel control linking.
5000 Series AEW-R5200 full-rack independent dual
receiver with multi-unit, multi-channel
control linking, plus Ethernet computer-
control connection, and software for
graphical user interface.

Introduction

IntelliScan ™ Channel Assignment System
The IntelliScan ™
provided on both the 4000 and 5000 Series receivers, greatly
simplifies the selection of usable frequencies in a multi-channel
wireless system. The receivers are first linked together with
included communication cables. The selected "Master" receiver
then "knows" how many total channels it is looking for. It can
scan the available frequencies, checking for local interference
sources, selecting a group of channels that will all work together
(using a built-in frequency plan), and automatically
setting the other receivers accordingly. Once this procedure is
completed, it's just a matter of setting the transmitter
frequencies to match those of the receivers.
