Sabine Wireless: Application and Troubleshooting Guide 9 of 12
6. Transmitter
6.1. The switch is programmable to guard against users with nervous fingers. Refer to the
Internal Control of External Switch on page 14 of the manual to see how this switch may
be set to “On/Off,” On/Mute,” or “On/On.”
6.2.
Why does the Front Panel Display on the Receiver and the Software Interface
display different a microphone element from actual one on transmitter?
The
handheld transmitters have a setting that tells the receiver which microphone capsule is
connected to the handheld transmitter so that mic modeling works correctly. You can
check and see if this is correct by holding down the Select button on the transmitter
while turning on the power switch. The capsule type is displayed (for example: H13).
Use the Up/Down buttons to select the capsule that matches the label on your capsule.
In order to record this change in memory, you must set another parameter before
turning off the mic. We suggest briefly changing the RF channel, then changing it back.
Now your new capsule setting is saved to memory.
6.3.
Some mics have outputs that are so hot the
belt-pack transmitter mutes
. Increase
the PAD to solve this problem.
7. Sabine Remote Software
7.1.
Upgrade your software
if you have problems connecting. See the Upgrade section
below.
7.2. Each receiver can be controlled by Sabine Remote software on a PC computer, even if
it is not an ND series. Apple computers are not supported, although some customers
report good results with PC emulation programs.
7.3.
Connecting more than one receiver to a network:
You can control of up to 35 ND-
series receivers with a single computer. Connect the computer to any receiver in the
rack with either an RS232 or USB connector.
Set its DIP switch #7 down
to
designate it as the master in the network. Connect all of the other receivers with the
RS485 connectors provided with the ND receivers. Set all of the rest of the receivers
DIP switch #7 up
to designate they are slaves. Please note, the receiver only reads
the dip switches when the receiver is turned on.
If you move a switch, you must turn
the receiver off and on before the switch setting goes into effect.
7.4.
Dip Switch #1 must be down
. Otherwise automatic squelch will be turned off and you
will hear a lot of noise. See the manual for other dip switch settings.
7.5. The ends of your RS232 cable should have pins 2, 3 and 7 wired together. Check
continuity.
7.6.
DELL Computers
seem to have special problems: Some RS232 to USB cables don’t
work. We have found that the GoldX RS232 to USB converter cable model GXMU1200
works with no problems.
