(patents pending). As a result, Artist Elite Series transmitters and receivers must be used together in Tx-Rx pairs and should not be mixed with components from other Audio-Technica wireless systems, or with those of other manufacturers. All Artist Elite Series components feature soft-touch controls for quick, easy access to a formidable range of functions;... -
Page 7: Multi-Channel Systems
Ethernet-based monitoring and control (AEW-R5200): Some wireless systems on the market offer remote control/monitoring of the receiver via a serial interface, but the Audio-Technica AEW-R5200 receiver takes this a significant step further by including control over IP using standard networking protocol and Ethernet interfacing. -
Page 8: Front-Mount Antennas
Front-mount Antennas AEW-R4100: Provision has been made to move the antenna jacks from the rear to the front of the receiver. However, because this involves opening the receiver case and exposing AC power circuitry, instructions are not included in this manual. A qualified service technician must perform this modification. -

Ethernet connections (AEW-R5200): An RJ-45 jack on the rear panel of each AEW-R5200 provides an Ethernet 10 BaseT data/control connection from both of its channels to an external computer system. Data monitored includes actual, real-time “RF” and “AF” levels for receiver channels with direct Ethernet connections to the associated computer. -

Page 15: Meter Hold
Meter Hold When activated (“METER HOLD”), this function permits the bar meters in the LCD window to capture and display the highest- level “AF” audio modulation (a solid bar) and the lowest-level “RF” signal (a flashing bar) received from the transmitter. This is particularly useful when setting up the system initially, performing a sound-check, or diagnosing operating problems. -

Page 23: System Operation
Artist Elite wireless receivers and transmitters are extremely versatile components with many operating features and functions, some of which are not obvious. As a result, we suggest the following approaches to assure a “comfort level” with any new equipment: 1. Begin using a single receiver/transmitter pair at their Default (“DEF”) settings, to become familiar with equipment functions and operation before doing any customizing. -

Figure R Group 1 Group 2 Group 3 Note: An asterisk in two or more locations indicates this frequency is in more than one group. Setting Receiver Frequency Using IntelliScan Single-receiver systems (either an AEW-R4100 or an AEW-R5200): Turn down the AF level of the associated mixer or amplifier. Make certain that any AEW transmitters are turned off. -
