6. Attaching the Receiver
The PEM-500R can be slipped into a pocket or clipped onto clothes or a belt with
the
BELT CLIP (27)
. Note that for utmost versatility and convenience, this clip can be
rotated 90˚ for attaching receiver either vertically or horizontally on clothes or belt
as desired. To rotate clip, loosen the Phillips screw holding the clip, change the
position as needed, and retighten the screw to secure the clip.
7. Adjusting Ear Monitor Volume
After the PEM-500T transmitter has been adjusted to optimum volume and Stereo or
Mono reception is selected simultaneously on both the transmitter and receiver as
per the preceding instructions, the received volume can be adjusted as desired.
Select the volume with the thumbwheel
VOLUME CONTROL (28)
. As per the
preceding WARNING section, turn up the
VOLUME CONTROL
only far enough to
hear properly. For longterm ear safety, it is highly recommended that you always
select the volume limiting provided by the
LIMITER ON/OFF SWITCH (29)
in the
BATTERY COMPARTMENT
.
(Note: Ringing in the ears after use indicates the gain levels you have selected may
be too high. Either select LIMITER ON or turn down the VOLUME CONTROL. You
may also need to lower the overall volume of the band instruments and amplifiers to
enable more comfortable and safer listening levels. See the WARNING section,
pg.4)
8. Testing Receiver Range
Wearing your receiver and earphones, walk around the stage area and listen for
audio quality. Depending on room size, obstructions, amount of reflective metal
surfaces, and other conditions that may affect RF transmission, it is normal that the
audio may disappear or "drop out" in certain locations. Such zones, otherwise
known as "null spots" are very small and fixed in location if you are within 100 feet
of the transmitter, and will become larger as you approach the ultimate range of
your system in that location (up to 300 or so feet, depending on site conditions).
Generally, it is possible to eliminate such "null spots" by moving your PEM-500T
transmitter as little as 12-18 inches in any direction. If that is not convenient (e.g.,
because the PEM-500T is rackmounted), you can also use an optional remote
antenna. Contact the NADY SYSTEMS Service Department (see pg.15) for
information about remote antennas for the PEM-500T. After you move the
transmitter or relocate a remote antenna, range walk the stage and other areas you
will use in your performance to again check for consistent reception. You are now
ready to use the PEM-500 system for wireless personal in-ear monitoring.
(Note: Due to the strong transmission power of the PEM-500T, you may experience
compromised audio or static if the PEM-500R is too close to the antenna of the
PEM-500T transmitter. Always operate the receiver at least 6 ft (2 m) away from the
transmitter antenna.)
