EC2 MICROPHONE–TRANSMITTER FEATURES AND CONTROLS
FIGURE 1
1. Grille: Protects the microphone element of the EC2, and helps
minimize breath and wind noise. (The various models have dif-
ferent grille styling.)
2. Set Screw: Loosen only to change microphone heads.
3. Antenna: The EC2 uses a replaceable external helical anten-
na with a female SMA connector. The transmitter SMA connec-
tor and the antenna are color–coded with white, red, blue, yel-
low, green, or brown stripes that correspond to the system's
operating frequency range. Make sure the connector and the
antenna share the same color code.
4. MIC ON/OFF Slide Switch: Permits user to "mute" the micro-
phone without turning the transmitter off. This avoids the "pop"
that may occur when the microphone is turned on or off and pre-
vents the receiver from picking up unwanted signals.
5. POWER ON/OFF Switch: Turns transmitter power on and
off.
6. Battery Test Light: Illuminates when the POWER switch is
turned on and a "good" battery is installed. When this light does
not illuminate, the transmitter will not work.
7. Battery Compartment: Unscrewing the handle and sliding it
downward exposes the battery compartment and the audio
GAIN Switch (9).
8. Frequency Identification Label: Located inside the battery
compartment, this label lists the transmitter's original operat-
ing frequency.
9. Audio HI/LO GAIN Switch: Controls audio level of the micro-
phone.

EC11 BODY-PACK TRANSMITTER FEATURES AND CONTROLS
1. INPUT Jack: The microphone cable or the WA300 instrument
adapter cable plugs into this connector.

turned on and a "good" battery is installed. If this light does not

the bottom of the body-pack transmitter. Fo r p rope r o peration,
the antenna must hang in the vertical position, not coiled or

ous sound sources. A small screwdriver is supplied to make ad-
justments (see page 5).
7. Frequency Identification Label: This label identifies the
transmitter's original operating frequency.
8. Belt Clip: Allows the transmitter to be worn on a belt, waist-
band or guitar strap. It can be removed, if desired.

jack on the body-pack transmitter.
