The 

DOWN/SET BUTTON (3)

 is used to transfer the selected channel info from the receiver to 

the transmitter for easy synchronization prior to use. Press the DOWN/SET BUTTON to start 

the transfer. The TX 

LCD DISPLAY (17, 27)

 lights up indicating IR transmission is in progress. 

If needed, press it again to restart synchronizing. When the synchronization is completed 

successfully, the 

RF LED/LCD (5, 6)

 on the receiver will light up.

See Programming the U-1100HT/U-11100LT/GT Transmitters to the Selected Channel in the following 

section.)

Instructions for Setup of Simultaneous Multi-channel Operation

The U-1100/2100 receiver is capable of finding an open channel with its Auto Scan capability. 

This built-in feature is a quick, convenient way to set up many wireless systems at the same 

location for simultaneous multichannel operation.

If you are using multiple transmitters at the same location, set up the first transmitter and leave 

it ON and keep 10 feet away from the receivers and 1 foot away from transmitter to transmitter. 

This avoids possible duplicate selection of the same channel as already selected for the first 

receiver. Then start the Auto scan function on the second U-1100/2100 receiver. Repeat this 

procedure for all receivers and transmitters to be used in your system. Finally with all the 

transmitters ON, perform a range walk test in the location these systems will be used in to check 

for potential crosstalk interference in this application.

If you are not satisfied with any of the channels scanned for a particular receiver, repeat the Auto 

Scan procedure for that receiver again anytime for finding another free channel.

Connecting the Audio Output

The U-1100/2100 audio output has an adjustable 

Line level ¼” Unbalanced OUT (10)

 and fixed 

MIC level XLR Balanced OUT (9)

. The ¼” unbalanced line out is controlled by the 

Volume Control 

(2)

.

For unbalanced line output connection, plug an audio cable with a ¼” mono (Tip/Sleeve) plug 

into the Unbalanced Line Out jack and plug the other end into your mixing board or amplifier. 

Adjusting the RX Volume control will increase or decrease the audio level at the ¼” Unbalanced 

Line Out only. When using the U-1100GT instrument transmitter system, connect the 

Unbalanced Line Out directly to your instrument amp or preamp. At maximum receiver volume 

setting, the system output is approxi4dB higher than a direct cord-to-amp connection.

For XLR Balanced Mic Output connection, plug an audio cable with an XLR connector into the 

XLR Balanced MIC OUT (9)

 socket and plug the other end into your mixing board or amplifier 

and control the audio levels from there.

Both the ¼” Unbalanced Line Out and the XLR Balanced Mic Out can be used at the same time to 

connect to your mixing board, effect, or amplifier.

Note: As when making any connection, make sure the amplifier or mixing board volume is at the 

minimum level before plugging in the receiver to avoid possible sound system damage.

Note: Only one transmitter can be used with one receiver. It is not possible to use two transmitters on 

the same frequency and mix the output of these transmitters into one wireless receiver.

Your U-1100/2100 receiver is now in operational state and ready to use. Proceed to the following 

instructions for the U-1100HT handheld microphone transmitter or U-1100LT/HM or GT 

bodypack transmitter included with your system.

Setting up the Transmitter

The U-1100HT requires two AA alkaline or NiMH batteries to operate (do not mix types). To
