Transmitter On/Off Lock-Out
There are two On/Off lock out modes available, One
Time and Everytime.
One Ti m e :
Cycle the power switch 3 times in under
3 seconds and On-Loc will be displayed for a second
and then return to normal operation. The power
switch alone will no longer turn the unit off. To turn
the unit off, put the power switch in the off position
(On-Loc will be displayed) open the battery door and
press [Set], [Up], or [Down] and the unit will
power down. The next time the unit is powered on,
the power switch will operate normally.
E v e rytime Use:
With the unit on and operating in the
normal mode, press and hold [Set], [Up], and [Down]
for 3 seconds. On-Loc will be displayed and the
power switch alone will no longer turn the unit off .
To turn the unit off, put the power switch in the off
position, (On-Loc will be displayed), open the battery
door and press [Set], [Up], or [Down] and the unit
will power down. The next time the unit is powered
on, the On-loc function will still be on. To enable the
power switch, press and hold [Set], [Up], and [Down]
for 3 seconds (On-Off will be displayed).
Guidelines and Recommendations for
Best Performance
Compatibility
The transmitter and receiver must be of the same
frequency band and set to the same group and
channel in order to work together. The RE-2 is
available in different frequency bands. The band
information is available in the Group/Channel edit
screen on the receiver, the bottom label on the
handheld transmitter, and on the back panel label on
the bodypack.
Using Multiple Wireless Systems
If two or more RE-2 systems and/or other UHF/VHF
wireless systems are being used in the same location,
proper frequency coordination is necessary to avoid
interference. All channels in the RE-2 factory set
groups are designed to work together, so if channels
from just one group are used no further coordination
is required. Contact your dealer or Telex for
assistance if you are planning more systems or using
the RE-2 with other wireless equipment.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Always use the smallest
preset group that meets your needs. For instance,
if you want to set up 6 units, use one of the groups
of 8 frequencies. The smaller the preset group, the
more compatible the frequencies are.
Multiple Systems and
Advanced ClearScan
Because all of the channels in the factory set groups
are compatible, Advanced ClearScan can be used to
set up multiple systems quickly and with confidence.
When setting up more than one system, set up the
first system using the Auto-ClearScan
TM
function.
Once the working Group has been established, leave
the first transmitter on, set the next receiver Group to
the working Group and run ClearScan for Channels.
This will provide the next clearest channel in that
group. Set the transmitter to match, leave it on and
repeat until all the systems are set up. If you run out
of clear channels in one group but need to set up
more systems, contact your dealer or Telex for
assistance in choosing additional frequencies.
Potential Sources of Interference
There are many potential sources of interference for
your wireless system. Any electronic product that
contains digital circuitry including digital signal
processors (reverb/multi-effects units), electronic
keyboards, digital lighting controllers, CD and DVD
players, and computers, all emit RF energy that can
adversely affect the performance of your wireless
system. It is always best to place the receiver as far
away as possible from these devices to minimize
potential problems.
Analog and Digital Television stations can also
interfere with your wireless system. Consult your local
R . F. authority for channels being used in your area.
Battery Recommendations
Fresh 9-volt alkaline batteries from a quality
manufacturer will yield the best performance from
your RE-2 transmitters. Rechargeable 8.4-volt Ni-
Cad batteries can be used but will result in much
shorter operation time.
When the transmitters are turned on, the red battery
LED will flash once if the battery is good. If the light
does not light or stays lit continuously, the battery is
weak or dead. If the light comes on during use, the
battery is weakening and should be replaced as soon
as possible. If sound quality degrades during use, it
may be the result of a weakening battery.
Caution: The battery level indicators, on the
transmitters and receiver displays, are based on
the use of alkaline batteries. Use of other battery
types will result in false readings on these
indicators although the battery low LED on the
transmitters will operate normally.
Receiver and Antenna Placement
Do not place the receiver near a large metal object or
surface. Locate the receiver as close as possible to
the area where the transmitter will be used. Ideally,
position the receiver/antennas within sight of the
transmitter. When using multiple systems, do
not allow antennas to cross or touch each other. For
best results with multiple receivers, use an APD4
+
antenna splitter. (See Section 7).
