Using Multiple Transmitters with a Single
Receiver (MTx Mode)
The MTx feature stores a list of presets, allowing you to easily switch from one transmit-
ter to another without having to reconfiguring receiver settings. This replaces the need
to mount multiple receivers on your camera whenever you only need to tune to one
transmitter at a time.
The presets are stored as entries in the MTx list. Each entry stores a name, RF chan-
nel, and receiver camera output volume. Transmitters can be synced to entries in the
list, which transfers the entry name and RF channel settings over the IR port.
To use the presets, enter MTx mode on the receiver and scroll through the MTx list with
the ▼▲ buttons to receive audio from the transmitter on that RF channel.
Multiple entries can be set to the same RF channel. This may be desired, for example, if
the same transmitter will be used at different times throughout a performance at varying
volumes.
