Managing CueMode Mixes
While in Cue Mode, you can access the following menu by pressing enter:
REPLACE MIX
Select and press sync on a rack unit to upload new data for the current mix (for
example, if you have changed the transmitter frequency).
DELETE MIX
Removes the selected mix.
DELETE ALL
Removes all mixes.
EXIT CUEMODE
Exits CueMode and returns the bodypack to the previous frequency setting.
Frequency Scan
Use a frequency scan to analyze the RF environment for interference and identify
available frequencies. There are three types of scan:
• Channel Scan Press the scan button on the bodypack. Finds the first available
channel.
• Group Scan Press and hold the scan button for two seconds. Finds the group
with the greatest number of available channels. (Each group contains a set of
frequencies that are compatible when operating multiple systems in the same
environment.)
• Full Scan From the bodypack menu select AUDIO > FULL SCAN. Press RUN SCAN
to initiate a full scan. Press SPECTRUM to view full results in a graphical display.
Note: When performing a frequency scan:
• Turn off the RF on the transmitters for the systems you are setting up. (This
prevents them from interfering with the frequency scan.)
• Turn on potential sources of interference such as other wireless systems
or devices, computers, CD players, large LED panels, effects processors,
and digital rack equipment so they are operating as they would be during the
presentation or performance (so the scan will detect and avoid any interference
they generate).
Sync
You can transfer frequency settings in either direction: from the bodypack to the
rack unit, or from the rack unit to the bodypack.
Note: You can also choose to transfer other settings to the bodypack during a
sync, such as lock or mode settings, using the Sync > RxSetup menu on the rack
transmitter.
Downloading settings from the bodypack
1. Press the scan button on the bodypack.
2. Align the IR windows and press the sync button from the rack transmitter LCD
menu while the bodypack display is flashing "SYNC NOW...".
The level LEDs on the rack unit flash.
Sending settings to the bodypack
1. Press the Sync button on the rack transmitter to access the sync menu.
2. Align the IR windows.
When properly aligned the IR window on the transmitter illuminates.
3. Press Sync to transfer settings
The blue LED on the bodypack flashes.
Creating Custom Groups
This feature allows you to create your own groups of frequencies.
Menu: Radio > Custom
1. Turn the Control wheel to select a custom group from the Group menu. (U1, U2,
etc.)
2. Push the Control wheel to move to the Channel parameter and turn it to select a
channel (01, 02, 03, etc.)
3. Push the Control wheel to move to the Freq parameter and select a frequency for
that channel.
4. Push the Next menu key to select a frequency for the next channel in that group.
5. Select Load to find all other devices of the same model and band on the network.
Then press enter to deploy the custom group list to all these devices.
This overwrites all existing custom groups.
6. Clear deletes all custom groups for all devices on the network.
MixMode
Some performers need to hear more of their own voice or instrument, while others
want to hear more of the band. With MixMode, the performer creates their own mix
using the balance control (▼▲ buttons) on the bodypack.
To use MixMode, send a solo mix of the performer to the CH. 1 IN input on the
transmitter, and send a band mix to the CH. 2 IN input.
Set the performer's bodypack for MixMode. The bodypack combines the two sig-
nals and sends them to both earphones, while the balance control on the bodypack
adjusts the relative levels for each.
LOOP Applications
Use LOOP OUT L (left) and R (right) outputs to send a copy of the audio signal going
into the transmitter to other devices. Following are a few of the many applications
for these outputs.
Note: The input level control and the input pad do not affect the LOOP OUT signals.
MixMode for Multiple Systems
Configure each system for MixMode. From the mixing console, send a mix of the
whole band to input 2 of the first transmitter. Connect the LOOP OUT R output to the
CH. 2 IN input of the next transmitter. Continue the chain with all the transmitters.
Next, create solo mixes for each performer. Send each mix to input 1 of the trans-
mitter for that performer.
Floor Monitors
Send the audio from the LOOP outputs to onstage loudspeakers. The bodypack
and the onstage monitors receive the same audio signals.
Note: The LOOP audio outputs will not drive passive loudpeakers, and must be
sent to a power amplifier or an active loudspeaker.
Recording Devices
To record a performance, connect the LOOP outputs to the inputs of a recording
device.
