Changing the step size never changes the frequency. It only changes the way
the user interface works. If the frequency is set to a fractional increment be-
tween even 100 kHz steps and the step size is changed to 100 kHz, the hex
code will be replaced by two asterisks on the main screen and the frequency
screen.

Connecting the Signal Source
Microphones, line level audio sources and instruments can be used with
the transmitter. Refer to the section entitled
Input Jack Wiring for Different
Sources for details on the correct wiring for line level sources and micro-
phones to take full advantage of the Servo Bias circuitry.
Using Line Level and Instrument Inputs
Line level signals can be sent to the input with the proper wiring. Refer to the
section on Input Jack Wiring for Different Sources for details.
Turning Control Panel LEDs ON/OFF
From the main menu screen, a quick press of the UP arrow button turns the
control panel LEDs on. A quick press of the DOWN arrow button turns them
off. The buttons will be disabled if the LOCKED option is selected in the Power
Button menu.
The control panel LEDs can also be turned on and off with the
LED Off option
in the Power Button menu.
Helpful Features on Receivers
To aid in finding clear frequencies, several Lectrosonics receivers offer a
SmartTune
feature that scans the tuning range of the receiver and displays a
graphical report that shows where RF signals are present at different levels,
and areas where there is little or no RF energy present. The software then
automatically selects the best channel for operation.
Lectrosonics receivers equipped with an
IR Sync
function allow the receiver
to set frequency, step size and compatibility modes on the transmitter via an
infrared link between the two units.
