5: SQ (Squelch) Level control - This control determines the maximum range of the
M32 before audio signal dropout. Although it can be adjusted using the supplied plastic
screwdriver, it should normally be left at its factory setting. See the "Setting Up and
Using the Micro 32 System" section on page 12 in this manual for more information.
6: Battery holder - Insert a standard 9-volt alkaline battery here, being sure to observe
the plus and minus polarity markings shown. We recommend the Duracell MN 1604
type battery. Although rechargeable Ni-Cad batteries can be used, they do not supply
adequate current for more than four hours. WARNING: Do not insert the battery
backwards; doing so can cause severe damage to the M32 and will void your warranty.
7: Plastic screwdriver - Specially designed for use in adjusting the M32 Squelch Level
control (see #5 above). See the "Setting Up and Using the Micro 32 System" section on
page 12 in this manual for more information.

Guided Tour - M32
1: A/B Receiver LEDs - When signal is
being received, one of these will be lit
orange, showing you whether the (left) "A"
or (right) "B" receiver is currently being
used. The M32 constantly scans its two
antennas and automatically selects
whichever is receiving the strongest,
clearest signal. This True Diversity
switching is completely inaudible, but it
effectively increases overall range while
virtually eliminating potential interference
and phase cancellation problems.
2: Meter - This set of three multicolor LEDs
acts as a meter, indicating either battery
power or the strength of the incoming RF
signal. This meter can also be disabled
altogether to conserve battery power. See
#15 on the next page for more information.
3: Peak LED - This LED lights red when
output signal from the M32 is at the onset of
clipping (that is, when it is on the verge of
being distorted). If you see this light during
operation, move the microphone further
away or lower the output level of your instru-
ment or transmitter. For more information,
see the "Setting Up and Using the Micro 32
System" section on page 12 in this manual.
4: Power switch - Use this to turn the M32
power on and off.
