2)  Set compatibility mode to 

match the receiver (see page 

8).

3)  Connect signal source, select 

input type and adjust input 

gain for optimum modulation 

level (see pages 8 and 9).

4)  Set or sync frequency to match 

receiver (see page 9). Also see 

receiver manual for scanning 

procedure.

5) Set encryption key type and 

sync with receiver (see pages

sired function (see page 11).

Selecting Receiver 

Compatibility Mode

ate with different receivers:

DCH(X): 

M2R-X encrypted (FW 

v3.x)

Input Menu

Adjusting the Input Gain for 

Analog Inputs

For analog gain adjustment, two 

multi-color LEDs on the top panel, 

one for each channel, provide a 

visual indication of the audio signal 

level entering the transmitter. The 

LEDs will glow either red or green to 

indicate modulation levels as shown 

in the following table.

Signal Level

CH2

Less than -20 dB 

 Off

NOTE: This procedure is used 

for analog inputs only. AES 

digital input is factory set at 

the industry standard level. 

The LEDs on the top panel will 

glow blue when the audio level 

reaches about -40 FS.

It is best to go through the following 

procedure with the transmitter in the 

standby mode so that no audio will 

enter the sound system or recorder 

during adjustment.

1)

  With fresh batteries in the 

transmitter, power the unit on in 

the standby mode (see previ-

ous section 

Powering On in 

Standby Mode

).

2)

  Navigate to the Gain setup 

screen.

3)

  Position a microphone the way it 

will be used in actual operation 

and have the user speak or sing 

at the loudest level that occur 

during use, or set the output 

level of the audio device to the 

maximum level that will be used.

4)

  Use the   and   arrow buttons 

to adjust the gain until the LED 

glows green most or all of the 

time, and flicker red during the 

loudest peaks.
