Before you begin, turn off all transmitters and turn on any equipment (other microphones or personal monitoring systems) that 

could cause interference during the performance.

Press and release the group button on the receiver.

The receiver scans for the clearest group and channel.

Note: 

If you want to stop the scan, push the 

group

 button again.

Turn on transmitter and change the group and channel to match the receiver (See 

Setting Transmitter Group and Chan­

nel).

Once the system is set up, perform an audio check and adjust the gain if necessary.

Setting Transmitter Group and Channel

Transmitter group and channel must be manually set to match the receiver.

Group (letter)

Press and release the group button on the transmitter to activate the display. Press the group

 button again and the dis­

play flashes.

While the display is flashing, press the group button again to advance to the desired group setting.

Channel (number)

If channel needs to be changed, follow the same procedure using the channel button instead of the group button.

Note:

When the group and channel correctly match the receiver, the ready LED on receiver illuminates.

After manual setup, the transmitter alternately displays the group and channel setting for about two seconds.
