Saving to a different user PRESET# location
To store settings to a different user preset location, hold the
Mode/Set button. The receiver shows "STORE XXXXXX" (where
XXXXXX indicates the loaded preset's name).
Touch the Up/Down buttons to scroll to another preset location
(the display shows the user-defined name for each location, or
"PRESET#" if no name has been assigned).
At the desired preset location, hold the Mode/Set button. The
first character of the name becomes the cursor and flashes.
Touch the Up/Down arrow buttons to scroll through the
characters until the desired character is displayed. Touch the
Mode/Set button to accept the character and advance to
the next character. To advance the cursor without changing the
character, touch the Mode/Set button.
After setting the last character, hold the Mode/Set button to
store the name and revert to normal operation. Holding the
Mode/Set button at any time during the naming process while the
cursor is flashing will store the setting and return the
receiver to normal operation.
Note: To escape the naming process, touch the Mode/Set
button repeatedly until the last character is flashing, and then
touch the Mode/Set button again to escape. At the flashing
"ESCAPE" display, touch the Mode/Set button to go back to the
beginning of the name, or hold the Mode/Set button to return to
"QUIT."
Note: While the receiver is in Edit mode, no action
(no buttons pressed) for approximately 30 seconds causes
the receiver to revert to Menu mode.
While the receiver is in Menu mode, no action for
approximately 30 seconds causes the receiver to revert
to normal operating mode. Any setting changes stored will
remain in the "NAME?" memory location, and the receiver
will display "NAME?" because the settings were not saved
to a user preset. This will occur even if a user preset was
previously loaded.
Receiver Functions
IntelliScan ™ Channel Assignment System
The IntelliScan channel assignment system, provided on both
™
the AEW-R4100 and AEW-R5200 receivers, eliminates the
trouble and frustration normally encountered while attempting to
find and select usable, compatible frequencies in a multi-channel
system. The Artist Elite receivers are simply connected together
with included communication link cables. A "Master" receiver
then "knows" how many total channels it is looking for. It can
scan the available frequencies, checking for local interference
sources, selecting a group of channels that will
all work together (using a built-in frequency plan), and
automatically setting the other linked AEW receivers accordingly.
Once this procedure is completed, the transmitter frequencies
must be set to match the receiver frequencies.

Receiver Controls and Functions

Receiver Locks

Programmable locks restrict the ability to change receiver
settings, reducing the possibility of unauthorized access or
unintended changes during performances.
Setting Description
NO.LOC Receiver functions and frequency settings
can be edited from the receiver's front panel
or from an associated computer via an
Ethernet connection to a linked AEW-R5200.
ALL.LOC
Receiver functions and frequency settings
cannot be edited from the front panel or
from a computer via an Ethernet connection
to a linked AEW-R5200. ALL.LOC must be
changed via the receiver's Menu before other
settings can be changed.
PC.LOC Receiver functions and frequency settings
can be edited from the receiver's front panel,
but they cannot be edited from an
associated computer (via an Ethernet
connection to a linked AEW-R5200).
RX.LOC Receiver functions and frequency settings
can be edited from an associated computer
(via an Ethernet connection to a linked
AEW-R5200), but they cannot be edited
from the receiver's front panel.
When any lock condition is applied to a receiver ( ALL ., RX . or PC .),
the LCD window displays a small " RX LOCK " just to the right of
the frequency. If an action is attempted that currently is locked
out, the LCD will briefly display " LOCKED ", then return to its
previously displayed contents.
Note: Locks remain in place even when receiver power is turned
off. However, locks may be removed by using the Menu.

Antenna Power

This function turns on the 12V AC antenna power for use with
powered antennas or accessories.
Digital Tone Lock ™ Squelch
The Artist Elite Series employs a unique digital Tone Lock squelch
system that provides enhanced rejection of interference. In
addition to providing highly effective control of
unwanted noise, the Tone Lock signal from the transmitter
also conveys data with the transmitter's name (Tx Name),
battery condition, mute status and lock status back to the receiver
for display. In addition to displaying in the receiver's LCD window,
the data are also displayed on an Ethernet-
connected computer.
The squelch level is adjustable in fifteen 2-dB steps, providing
a 30 dB range. Increasing the squelch level – also called
"tightening the squelch" – can cause a reduction in usable range
of the wireless transmitter, so use the lowest value that reliably
mutes the unwanted RF signals. (If interference is a problem, first
consider trying a different frequency, either
manually or by scanning.)
