Attaching a Microphone or Musical 

Instrument and Adjusting Audio Levels

The front panel Modulation LEDs indicate input level 

and limiter activity.  (See Modulation LED Signal Level 

Chart.)  Since the distortion introduced by the limiter 

is minimal and full modulation is assured, occassional 

brief forays into the red by the -20 LED is ideal.
Different voices or instruments will usually require dif-

ferent settings of the AUDIO LEVEL control, so check 

this adjustment as each new person uses the system.  

If several different people will be using the transmitter 

and there is not time to make the adjustment for each 

individual, adjust it for the loudest voice.
Musicians also vary their volume depending on the na-

ture of the music.  It is suggested that the transmitter be 

adjusted for the passage with the loudest volume.

1)..

If necessary, install a fresh battery.

2).

Insert the 5-pin into the input jack.  Ensure the pins 

are aligned and the connector locks in (it will click).

  For those using a musical instrument, insert the 1/4 

inch plug on the other end of the MI33A Instrument 

Cable into the appropriate jack on your your musi-

cal instrument.

3).

Mute the main sound system and rotate the AUDIO 

LEVEL control on the transmitter to maximum coun-

terclockwise (Off).

Selecting the Compatibility Mode

All units with serial number 601 (101 for IM) and up are 

capable of working with Lectrosonics 400 Series Digital 

Hybrid Wireless

, 200 Series analog, 100 Sseries 

analog and some non-Lectrosonics analog wireless 

receivers (contact the factory for details).  The transmit-

ter must be set to the operating mode of the matching 

receiver, which is easily done using only the supplied 

screwdriver and a battery.

NOTE: The unit is supplied from the factory as a 

400 series transmitter.

 Ensure the battery is good.

2)

 Turn OFF the transmitter.

3)

 With a small screwdriver (one is included with your 

unit), set the Frequency Select Switches to CC. (for

enough for the LED’s to light up and then turn it 

OFF.

5)

 Change the Frequency Select Switches to one of 

the following settings:

  • 100 Series mode:  

1,1 

• 200 Series mode:

7)

 Change the Frequency Select Switches to 0,0.

8)

 Turn the transmitter ON to complete the operation.

The LEDS will blink to indicate the selected com-

patibility mode.  Immediately after power up, all 

LEDS will blink together red, then green, followed 

by the audio level LEDs (-20 and -10) blinking to 

indicate the mode.
  The LEDs will blink:

. •.Once.for.100.Series.mode.

. •.Two.times.for.200.Series.mode.

. •.Three.times.for.some.other.receivers.

. •.Four.times.for.400.Series.mode.

. •.Five.times.for.IFB.mode*.

. •.Six.times.for.Mode.6

Note: Each time the transmitter is turned on, the 

Power LED will confirm the current operating mode 

with the number of blinks listed in Step 2.  The 

mode setting will not change until it is reset with 

the procedure listed above. 

Attention: During the procedure to set the 

compatibility mode, each step between toggles 

of the power switch must be performed within 

ten seconds, or the procedure must be started 

from the beginning.
