Pocket Transmitter
You can use the pocket transmitter with an electric guitar, electric
bass or keytar. The PT1010 operates within a switching bandwidth of
up to 30 MHz in the 530.025 to 931.850 MHz UHF carrier frequency
range and offers up to 8 selectable carrier frequencies.
1 ON/OFF switch: This slider has three positions:
Green: The battery will last for more than one hour, the transmit-
ter is in normal mode.
ON: The transmitter's power supply is turned on.
MUTE: The audio signal emitted by the instrument is muted. The
power supply and HF carrier frequency remain activated.
OFF: The transmitter's power supply is turned off.
2 Audio input jack: 3-pole mini XLR jack with contacts for line level.
The right contacts are automatically assigned thanks to the con-
nector assignment of the recommended MKG L guitar cable.
3 Antenna: Integrated flexible antenna.
4 Display: Shows the set transmission channel.
5 Control LED: This LED indicates the operational availability of the
transmitter.
LED is green: Battery is OK.
LED is red: As soon as the LED changes to red, the remaining bat-
tery power allows at most one more hour of operation. We recom-
mend exchanging the batteries as soon as possible.
6 Battery compartment cover with integrated screwdriver.
7 Inspection window: The inspection window allows you at all
times to check whether a battery or a rechargeable battery is
inserted in the battery compartment.
8 Belt clip: To attach the pocket transmitter to a belt.
9 Carrier frequency label: An adhesive label stating the carri-
er frequency band is affixed on the back of the transmitter. The
enclosed frequency chart provides further information about the
available frequencies.
10 CHANNEL: With this button, you can adjust the transmitter to one
of up to eight different carrier frequencies within the transmitter's
carrier frequency band.
11 GAIN: This control serves to adapt the sensitivity of the audio
input to the level of the connected instrument.
12 Charging contacts: The recessed charging contacts allow you
to charge a battery using the optional charger without having to
remove the battery from the battery compartment. Turn the trans-
mitter off prior to charging.

Positioning the receiver
•
Set up the receiver as a free-standing unit.
•
Reflections off metal parts, walls, ceilings, etc. or the shadow effects
of musicians and other people may weaken or cancel the direct
transmitter signal.
For best results, set up the receiver as follows:
1) Place the receiver near the performance area (stage). Make sure,
though, that the transmitter will never be any closer to the receiver
than 10 ft (3 m). Optimum separation is 16 ft (5 m).
2) Check that you can see the receiver from where you will be using
the transmitter.
3) Place the receiver at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) away from any large metal
objects, walls, scaffolding, ceilings, etc.

Connecting Antennas
The supplied ¼-wave antennas can be mounted quickly and easily
and are suitable for applications where a direct line of sight between
the transmitter and the receiver antenna is available and a wireless
system has to be set up within a very short time.
Remote Antennas
If reception is less than ideal at the receiver's position, use remote
antennas:
•
Connect the remote antennas to the BNC sockets on the receiver
rear panel.
•
Use the BNC extension cable (Front Mount Antenna Rack Mount
Kit P/N 7704720000) to mount the ¼-wave antennas on the front
panel.
•
Use RG58 or RG213 cable to connect the antennas.
Connecting the receiver to
1) Use an XLR cable to connect the BALANCED output on the back
of the receiver to a balanced input (XLR socket) on the mixer or
amplifier.
2) Turn the VOLUME control on the receiver fully anticlockwise to set
the receiver output to mic level.
