INTRODUCTION
Your new UT Series system is designed to give you the best of both sound reinforce-
ment worlds: the freedom of a wireless system, and the reliability of world-famous
Shure sound quality. This manual covers each of the UT Series systems: The Vocal
Artist-UHF, The Presenter-UHF, The Headset-UHF, and The Guitarist-UHF.

SYSTEM FEATURES

All Shure UT Series systems offer a variety of of exceptional features, including:
Diversity Receivers with Exclusive Shure MARCAD Circuitry: MARCAD
(MAximum Ratio Combining Audio Diversity) circuitry continuously processes
the rf signal from each antenna and combines the audio outputs to produce one
signal of optimum quality. The result is improved reception and exceptional free-
dom from dropouts.
Low-Traffic UHF Transmission: UT systems use a UHF (Ultra High Frequen-
cy) range between approximately 596 to 862 MHz (available frequencies de-
pend on regulations in the country where the system is used). In urban areas,
UHF frequencies are less congested than those in the VHF range, and are less
susceptible to interference.
Multiple System Use: Up to eight UT systems can be used in the same perfor-
mance space. Each system must be set at a different frequency. If systems are
set to the same frequency, contact an authorized Shure dealer. NOTE: In multi-
ple use situations, each transmitter must have a dedicated receiver.
Simultaneous Output Use: Unbalanced
output connectors may be used simultaneously to different external devices.
Stackable and Rack-Mountable Receivers: If multiple systems are in use, re-
ceivers may either be stacked or rack-mounted, with two receivers fitting in the
optional rack mount tray. In these situations, antennas should not touch or be
crossed. (See Stacking and Rack-mounting Receivers.)
Range: UT Series transmitters will work at a distance of up to 100 meters (about
300 ft.) from the receiver.
Noise Squelch: The noise squelch circuit analyzes signal quality instead of sig-
nal strength, which allows the circuit to discriminate between noise and desired
signal. This reduces the likelihood of noise burst due to environmental rf (radio
frequency) noise.
Semi-Rigid Receiver Antennas: Three-inch rubberized antennas offer perfor-
mance equal to telescoping antennas with added durability.
Low Battery Warning Light: A red light on the body-pack and hand-held trans-
mitters warns the user that there is less than one hour of battery life left.
