program channel remains unchanged.

For normal operation, the transmitter displays the same channel as displayed on the receiver. 

When so, the system is ready for use.

Note: The IR link is infrared light and thus works best when this data transfer is accomplished in a 

light-shielded or darker environment. It may not be successful in a brightly lit area. If the transfer fails, 

repeat the procedure in a darker location or somehow shield the link from outside light to successfully 

program the transmitter with the pre-programmed group and channel info from the receiver.

Manually Programming

If, in a very bright light situation, the IR ASC™ Sync function does not work, manual channel 

selection is preferred. Use a pen tip to press the 

UP or DOWN BUTTONS (19)

 once quickly, the 

LCD backlight will light up displaying the channel selection menu for manually picking a desired 

channel, and a channel is changed accordingly. Each subsequent pressing of the UP or DOWN 

BUTTONS will enable single step channel selection from 1 of 100 pre-programmed channels (or 

hold down for faster selection). Release the button and wait for the Channel LCD display to stop 

flashing to confirm the channel selection into the memory. The LCD backlight will also turns off 

momentarily. 

If you miss a channel during selection, keep pressing either the UP or DOWN BUTTON until you 

reach it. This completes the manual channel programming.

Note: If no button is pressed within 3 seconds, the programmed content is stored for use.

Setting up the Transmitter

The U-1100LT/HM or GT bodypack transmitter requires two AA alkaline or NiMH batteries 

to operate (do not mix types). To install the batteries, flip open the 

LATCHING BATTERY 

COMPARTMENT DOOR (32)

 then swing down exposing the 

Battery Compartment (31)

. Insert 

two fresh AA batteries according to the polarity indicated on the transmitter body. Secure the 

battery cover back onto the microphone. Fresh alkaline batteries can provide up to 8-10 hours 

of operation, but in order to ensure optimal performance it is recommended that the batteries 

be replaced after 6-8 hours of use or as indicated necessary by the backlit empty battery icon on 

the 

LCD DISPLAY (27)

.

To preserve battery life, turn the transmitter off when not in use and check that the 

LCD DISPLAY 

(27) 

stays off.

At power off the transmitter will store the last settings entered and re-use them at the next 

power on. The default factory setting is 01 for channel A, and 50 for channel B.

The U-1100LT/HM or GT bodypack transmitter has permanently mounted external 

Antenna (23)

For best operating range, do not handle this antenna during use.

Powering the Transmitter On/Off

The U-1100LT/HM or GT bodypack transmitter has a slide 

POWER SWITCH (25)

. The switch has 

three functions as follow: OFF indicates TX is in off state. MUTE indicates the TX is on but the 

audio is muted (At the same time the 

MUTE LED DISPAY (24)

 turn red) and ON indicates the TX is 

on and the audio is un-muted. The 

MUTE LED DISPAY (24)

 turns off for normal operation.

Operating the U-1100 Bodypack Transmitter

To turn on the transmitter, slide the 

POWER SWITCH (25)

 to the MUTE position. The TX is turned 

on, the audio is muted and the 

MUTE LED DISPLAY (24)

 lights up. Slide the 

POWER SWITCH (25)

 

to the ON position, the TX turns on, audio is un-muted and the 

MUTE LED DISPLAY (24)

 stays off.

After the unit is powered on, slide the power switch to ON to un- mute or to MUTE to mute the 

audio during use. The receiver’s 

RF LED indicator (5)

 should now be on, indicating a received
