Optional RM Remote Control

The RM unit gives you remote control of SM Series
transmitters using an audible tone delivered to the mi-
crophone. The panel layout is the same as the transmit-
ters. Simply set the desired value or mode on the LCD,
then press the send button to set the transmitter to the
same setting or mode.
Hold the speaker on the RM close to the microphone
when pressing the pushbutton. A "dweedle" tone will
play from the RM speaker into the microphone and the
parameter on the transmitter will be set immediately.
Available adjustments:
• Audio input gain
• Frequency
• Lock or Unlock Modes
• Sleep Mode ON/OFF

When the transmitter is in the power saving sleep
mode, it uses only 20% of the normal battery drain,
so battery life with be 5 times longer. This is especially
useful in situations where the transmitter is buried deep
inside costuming and there are waiting periods between
use. The transmitter can "sleep" for several hours and
then be awakened and adjusted when the production is
about to begin.

Powering the RM on and off

To turn the RM on or off, press the AUDIO and FREQ
buttons together briefly. The unit powers up on the page
that was displayed when the unit was powered off last.
The setup screens are accessed with the AUDIO and
FREQ buttons. Once on the desired screen, the value is
adjusted with the UP and DOWN arrow buttons.
To change a transmitter's setting via the RM, select
the screen and value, then press the SEND button
while holding the speaker close to the microphone.
The speaker should be uncovered and held within a
few inches of the transmitter's microphone. The longest
usable range is about 6 feet, depending on the micro-
phone and volume settings used.
Only the specific function displayed is altered. For ex-
ample, if the remote control is on the Aud (audio level/
gain) screen, pressing the send button will set the gain
on the transmitter but will not affect any other setting.

Setup Screens

The AUDIO button cycles through 4 screens:
1) Aud - set transmitter's audio level
2) SLEEP/unSLP - cause transmitter to sleep or wake up
3) Loc/unLoc - lock or unlock transmitter's buttons
4) Loud - adjust RM speaker volume
(press SEND button for a sample tone)
The FREQ button cycles through 2 or 3 screens, de-
pending on the settings:
1) CH - set transmitter's channel
(using block-independent hex code)
2) b - select a block number
(optional — uncovers next page)
3) 000.000 - set transmitter's frequency in MHz
(avail. if a block is selected)
A single AA Lithium battery will operate
the RM for up to several years. Unscrew
the knurled knob for access to the battery
compartment.
