4.1. First step
Before you begin, let’s look at a few basics regarding your transmitters. The
handheld mic is ready to go — the microphone and transmitter are combined
in one unit. To use the belt pack transmitter, however, you will have to con-
nect a lavalier or headworn microphone (or instrument pickup) to its input.
Sabine lavalier and headworn mics, and Sabine’s guitar/instrument connec-
tor (SW70G-TA4) come equipped with the proper TA4F connector, and are
ready to plug right in. Be sure to line up the pins properly — do not force the
connector into the belt pack.
If you are using a different microphone with the Sabine belt pack, please refer
to the
Appendix A
for the required wiring plan. Failure to use the proper wiring
scheme may damage your mic or the belt pack, and void your warranty.
Use the clip on the back of the belt pack transmitter to attach it to your belt
or clothing. The spring clip can be removed and reversed, to allow the trans-
mitter and antenna to point either up or down in its clipped-on position. You
can also remove the clip if you choose to keep the transmitter in your pocket.
NOTE: it is essential that transmitters retain a line-of-sight relationship with
the receiver antennas.
4.2. Displays and Settings
Your Sabine Smart Spectrum handheld microphone and belt pack transmit-
ter have many powerful features, all of which are easily monitored (using the
transmitter LCD display) and adjusted. The controls and displays for both
handheld and belt pack transmitters are almost identical in function, though
positioning differs (compare figures 4b & 4c). The LCD display and one control
switch are located on the exterior of the transmitters. A more powerful set
of recessed controls is located under the hinged access panel, to prevent
accidental or inappropriate alteration of settings.
4.2.1. LCD Display
When the transmitter is first turned on, it shows an initial test screen (Fig. 4f),
followed by the default screen (Fig. 4g). The LCD also reverts to this default
display within a few seconds after any programming changes are made with
the recessed controls. The default LCD display always shows transmission
channel, audio level, and battery voltage level; additional information will
appear to indicate important changes caused either by user adjustments,
or automatically as transmitter status changes.
