Bodypack Transmitter Setup
and Operation
1. Insert Battery.
Pinch the battery door tabs inward
and pull the door open. Insert a 9V battery as
indicated by the +/- in the holder.
2.
With battery compartment still open, turn the unit
on with Power switch on the top panel. The
battery low LED will light for a second and the
display will show the Group and Channel
numbers.
3. Change the group and channel numbers
to
match those displayed on the receiver by pressing
SET. The Group number will flash and can be
changed with the UP/DOWN keys. Once the
desired Group number is showing, press SET to
select and the Channel number will flash. Select
the Channel and press SET again, the flashing will
stop and the channel is now set.
4. Set Key Lock-Out.
By pressing and holding the
UP and DOWN arrow keys together for 3 seconds,
the SET key is disabled. To reactivate the SET
key, simply press and hold the UP and DOWN
keys again for 3 seconds.
5. Verify reception.
With the transmitter and
receiver on and matching Group and Channel, the
main receiver display should be indicating an RF
signal on the bar graph. If the level meter does not
show reception, make sure the channels are
matching and refer to the troubleshooting section.
6. Attach the Microphone or Guitar.
Microphone:
Plug the microphone cable into the
top panel of the BPU-2. Speak into the
microphone and the Audio Meter bar graph should
indicate audio signal presence.
Guitar:
Turn off the bodypack, press and hold
SET while you turn the bodypack on. A guitar
symbol will appear in the display to indicate
instrument mode. Repeat the process holding SET
on the receiver as it is powered up. Plug in the
MAC-G3 guitar cable. Strum the guitar and the
Audio Meter bar graph on the receiver should
indicate audio signal presence.
7. Adjustment of the Transmitter Audio Gain (if
necessary).
The transmitter audio gain is factory
set at the middle of the range, which should be
suitable for most applications. For loud or soft
speakers/singers, a gain adjustment may be
necessary.
Have the speaker or singer use the microphone in
a normal performance level voice. The Audio
Meter in the main receiver display screen should
show peaks around the -3 dB level. If the meter
peaks all the way to the right or well below the -3
dB level, adjust the transmitter audio gain.
To adjust the transmitter gain, gently insert the
provided screwdriver (or other screwdriver) into
the adjustment potentiometer. Gently turn
counterclockwise until the control stops (the
microphone output is at minimum but not off).
Slowly turn the gain control up (clockwise) while
speaking/singing into the microphone or
strumming the guitar and the audiometer shows
peaks around -3 dB.
NOTE:
Operating with the transmitter audio gain
set as high as possible (without distortion or peaks
all the way to the right end of the meter) will
result in the best performance and highest signal
to noise ratio.
Other Screens:
Press SET and DOWN at the
same time to display the battery level. Press SET
and DOWN again to display frequency. Press
them one more time to return to Group and
Channel.
8. Frequency Edit Mode
- Press SET from the
frequency display screen to enter frequency edit
mode. Press the Up and Down to adjust frequency
in 25 kHz increments. Holding the Up or Down
buttons down will auto step the frequency; slowly
at first, then quickly. You can also enter frequency
edit mode by pressing SET and UP at the same
time from either the Group and Channel or Battery
status display screens. Pressing SET and UP at the
same time from the Frequency display screen will
enter Group and Channel edit mode.
9. Power Lock Out -
Press and hold SET, UP, and
DOWN at the same time and hold for 3 seconds to
lock the power switch on. To turn the unit off,
place the power switch in the OFF position and
push SET, UP, or DOWN. To remove the lock,
press SET, UP, and DOWN again at the same time
and hold for 3 seconds. A one-time only ON-Lock
mode can also be entered by quickly cycling the
power switch three times.
