OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
POWER ON/OFF:
The receiver is powered on and off by inserting the headphone plug into the headphone jack. When the
headphones are plugged in, the receiver will turn on. When the headphones are unplugged, the receiver will
turn off after several seconds.
SELECTING THE LISTENING FREQUENCY:
The receiver’s LED display will show the FM frequency or the preset channel number it is tuned to. Pressing
the “PRESET” button (Diagram #7) will switch the display between the frequency number and the preset
channel number. In the user mode, select the desired frequency by pressing the “CHANNEL UP” (Diagram
#2) or “CHANNEL DOWN” button (Diagram #3) on the front of the receiver. The “CHANNEL UP” button will
make the frequency step up
by 0.1MHz. The highest frequency available is 107.9MHz. The “CHANNEL
DOWN” button will make the frequency step down by 0.1MHz. The lowest frequency available is 88.1MHz.
Press and hold either of the channel buttons, the receiver will “scan” up or down for a receivable channel
and stop at the first one it finds.
ADJUSTING THE LISTENING VOLUME:
Press the “VOLUME UP” button (Diagram #4) or “VOLUME DOWN” button (Diagram #5) to raise or lower
the volume level. When the receiver is powered on, the volume will default to 07. The volume can be set
between the range 0 and 16.
Pressing the “MUTE” button (Diagram #6) will mute the sound and the volume number will flash in the
display. Press the “MUTE” button a second time to restore the sound to the previously selected level.
PROGRAMMING THE PRESET CHANNELS:
The ARG FM Receiver has the ability to program up to 20 presets. This allows the user to quickly scroll
through the frequencies to transmit the sound from TV/audio devices. (This is similar to the station presets
on a car radio.) The receiver can always be tuned to a frequency manually but assigning presets makes
switching between channels easier. Follow these steps to set the presets on the receiver:
1. Activate the programming mode by pressing and
holding the “VOLUME UP” and “VOLUME DOWN”
buttons simultaneously for three seconds. The second from left and extreme right decimal points will
illuminate in the display to indicate when the receiver has entered the programming mode.
2. Select the frequency p
reset by pressing the “CHANNEL UP” or “CHANNEL DOWN” buttons until it
shows in the display.
3. Select the preset number (ch01
– ch20) to assign the frequency by pressing the “VOLUME UP” or
“VOLUME DOWN” button until it shows in the display. (Usually ch01 to start.)
4.
Press the “PRESET” button to save the setting. To make it easier to do the initial setup, each time you
press the “PRESET” button, the preset channel number will automatically advance by one number.
(ch01 will advance to ch02, ch02 will advance to ch03, etc.)
5. Repeat steps 2 to 4 to assign all the FM frequencies you want to use in your facility to a preset channel
number. If a mistake is made or you want to delete a preset altogether, select the preset channel
number that is wrong or needs to b
e deleted and press the “MUTE” button. This will delete the
frequency that had been assigned in error. Don’t forget to re-save the correct frequency or the receiver
will skip that preset number when scrolling through the list.
6. When all the FM stations have been programmed, remove headphones from the plug and disconnect
the power source from the back of the receiver. The display will flash 5 times and then power down.
The receiver will save all presets and return itself to the user mode. Re-connect the power source and
receivers (complete with preset channels) are ready to use.
For example, set three televisions in your facility equipped with FM transmitters to following frequencies:
88.5, 91.3, and 92.7.
1.
Press and hold the “VOLUME UP” and “VOLUME DOWN” buttons at the same time for three
seconds to enter the programming mode. (“c.h01.” will show in the display)
2.
Select the frequency “88.5” with the “CHANNEL UP” or “CHANNEL DOWN” buttons.
3.
Press the “PRESET” button. (“c.h02.” will show in the display)
4.
Select the frequency “91.3” with the “CHANNEL UP” or “CHANNEL DOWN” buttons.
