C 8860 UHF Band Auto Scan Wireless Mic System
Operation:
(See Fig 1.)
Note: Do not operate transmitters nearby when setting frequency on the receiver. Ensure all transmitters
are at least 2 to 3m away.
• To turn power on, press and hold the power button for 2 to 3 seconds until display illuminates.
• Connect the cable, one end to the balanced or unbalanced output jack of the receiver, the other end to
the mic mixing input of amplifier, audio mixer etc. See figures 6 and 7 for connection information.
• For best results set the output volume control at three quarter level (3 o'clock position) and adjust
mixer / amplifier level to suit.
• The squelch level is adjustable by the squelch adjustment at the back of the unit. Adjust
the squelch level to prevent external noise. Note: setting the squelch high (towards max)
will reduce the range of the system.
• When the receiver is not in use disconnect from mains power.
• A maximum number of 6 Redback systems can be used in the one location at the same time.
Manual Mode
1. Press “set/scan” button for 1 second. Display will flash the current channel number set.
2. Press the channel selection UP/DOWN buttons for 2 seconds to change the channel as desired.
3. After channel is selected the display will flash 5 times before locking in your selection.
Auto-Scan Mode
1. Press “set/scan” button for 3 seconds to initiate auto scan mode. The system will lock in the next
interference free channel it locates.
2. After receiver selects a channel it will flash the display 5 times before locking in the selection.
3. If using multiple systems in the same area, ensure all systems (receivers and transmitters) are
switched on so that the auto-scan function will ignore occupied channels.
Note: An interference free channel must be selected on the receiver before you can set up the
transmitters to a matching channel.
