Best practices for successful operation

Never attempt to operate two or more transmitters on the same frequency at the same

time. While multiple receivers can successfully tune to a single transmitted frequency,
multiple transmitters simultaneously operating on the same frequency will immediately
interfere with each other. If a goal is to create a combo system by adding an optional
transmitter (one bodypack transmitter and one handheld transmitter to work with one
receiver), only one of those transmitters can be on and tuned to the receiver at a time.
Ensure the receiver's antennas are properly attached, exposed (not buried within a

rack) and oriented as suggested in the Preparing the receiver section, page 17.
Scan for open frequencies first with transmitter off. The receiver antennas must be

properly connected for best scan results.
When scanning and synchronizing a multi-channel system, scan and synchronize one

system at a time. To begin, have all transmitters off and scan system receiver 1 first.
Then turn on system transmitter 1 and sync it to receiver 1. Leaving system transmitter
1 on, move on to receiver 2. With system transmitter 1 on, scan system receiver 2 and
tune it to the next open frequency within the same group as system 1. Turn on system
transmitter 2 and sync it to system receiver 2. Then leave system transmitter 2 on.
Follow this process while scanning and syncing all channels within a multi-channel
system.
Always have all member sets of a multi-channel system within the same frequency

band operating in the same frequency group. Mixing frequencies (channels) from
different groups within the same frequency band is not recommended. Channels within
a group are intermodulation-free. Simultaneous operation of channels from different
groups may lead to intermodulation interference.
If desired, use the receiver's mic configuration menu items to set transmitter operating

parameters prior to syncing the transmitter to the receiver. If a receiver's mic
configuration is changed since the last transmitter sync, resync the transmitter to
update its parameter settings.
Properly setting transmitter sensitivity is key to optimum performance. Best practice:

While observing the receiver's AF meter activity, adjust the transmitter sensitivity so
that high vocal peaks light the yellow LED segment. Under extremely loud vocal peaks,
an occasional red LED segment light is OK, but a solid and constant red LED should be
avoided.
Choosing transmitter low or high power: The transmitter in your set may have two

output power setting options (8M band has only one). The higher setting may not be
appropriate for your application as it is possible that high may be too high based on the
