Limiter
This feature can be used in order to provide audio lim
iting at the receiver in order to prevent excessive levels
at the headphones or earbuds. To set the amount of
limiting, highlight "Limiter" in the menu list using the ar
row keys. Press MENU/SEL to choose this function.
Use the arrow keys to select the limiter threshold in
3 dB increments. Test it with a known signal to deter
mine the maximum sound level you are comfortable
with. The pre-gain setting can then be used to boost
the audio level ahead of the limiter. Use this feature if
you need to make up for weaker audio input levels at
the transmitter. Use the MENU/SEL button to choose
"Pregain", then use the arrow buttons to adjust in 3 dB
increments.
Pre-Gain
This adjustment is used in conjunction with the Lim
iter setting to control the overall dynamic range ot the
audio being heard. As the Pregain setting is increased
and the Threshold setting is decreased, the dynamic
range is compressed as shown in the diagram. When
set for maximum compression, the audio being heard
will be at the same loudness regardless of how loud
the input signal becomes.

INPUT LEVEL
Treble Shelf
In this screen, you can choose a treble boost with a
corner either at 5kHz or 7kHz, and a boost of up to 9
dB in 3 dB increments. Treble shelf can be used to
compensate for a stereo mix that is lacking high fre
quency information, or earbuds that "roll off" too early
in the high frequency area.
This high-frequency boost should be used sparingly
due to the fact that it can accelerate hearing loss with
high volumes in the earphones or headphones.
Note: the factory default setting is 5 kHz corner
with 0dB boost.
Lock Setup
This feature is used to lock the control panel so that
no further changes can be made, other than normal
adjustments to the upper mixing knobs. Once Locked
is selected, note that a small lock icon appears in the
upper right of each setup menu screen. With the re
ceiver locked, you can view each menu screen but you
are unable to make changes and the power can not be
turned off.

tained even if the batteries are changed.
