1. Introduction You are now the happy owner of the AU-800 LTO wireless system. Your AU-800 is based on a new revolutionary UHF PLL (phase loop locked) circuit which allows the simultaneous use of 144 different channels (depending on your country regulations). The Receiver is provided with 2 antennas that constantly monitor the incoming RF (radio frequency) signal and send only the stronger RF signal to the AU-800 Receiver.

AU-800P: A bodypack transmitter with belt clip. The bodypack transmitter will come with either: 1. A cable to be connected to an electric guitar or bass. 2. A Lavalier Microphone. This is the little "bug" to be clipped on ties, shirts, nipples, etc.

UP/DOWN Keys: You can adjust the right values through these two keys once the MENU is activated. Display: All the key functions of your AU-800 Receiver are monitored through this big, sexy, blue back lighted display such as: Radio Signal, Audio Signal, Battery life ( yes with some little magic you can see the battery life of the transmitter directly on the receiver!), group value, channel value and the selected frequency.

Front Grill: This spring steel mesh grill will protect the microphone capsule during a live performance. Especially made for heavy metal players, alcohol, drugs, etc. LCD Display: This nice blue LCD will indicate the current operation status. CH/ON Key: If you press this key for a few seconds, your Transmitter will switch ON or OFF.

CH/ON Key: If you press this key for a few seconds your Transmitter will switch ON or OFF. Once you have switched the unit ON, just press this key again slightly and you can edit various parameters such as CHANNEL, GROUP , RF POWER LEVEL and LOCK/UNLOCK.
4. Operation OK, if so far you remember all the functions and features of your AU-800 system you are ready to operate the Unit. Let's start from the Receiver: 4.1 For the AU-800R, PLL UHF Diversity Receiver A.This indicates the Frequency Group. There are 12 Groups and each Group includes 12 different channels (frequencies).
Page 13
During this process the audio output will be muted and the display will show you the Group Number scanned, the channel number scanned and the frequency that is being scanned. Once the transmitter frequency has been found, the display will flash and the RF bar indicator and Battery life icon will appear.

Note: Why LTO wireless systems come with 144 different frequencies? Not because you will need to use 144 different microphones at the same time. It is unlikely that you will use more than 8 systems at the same time so why 144 frequencies? This depends mainly of Countries regulations. We offer frequencies from 470 to 900 MHZ.
Page 16
- LOCK Function You don't want accidental change of frequency or other setting in the middle of a performance, do you? Any miss-operation during a live performance can be easily avoided thanks to the LOCK function. With the LOCK function ON no further change of setting is allowed until the Transmitter is unlocked.

6. Annex Frequency Band Selection: Most countries closely regulate the radio frequencies used in the transmission of wireless information. These regulations state which devices can use which frequencies, and help to limit the amount of RF(radio frequency)interference in all wireless communications. To be flexible enough to operate worldwide, AU-800R Wireless receivers are available in a number of models, each with a unique frequency range.
