Portable  Wireless  Sound  System

Rio Rancho, NM – USA

MULTIPLE LONG RANGER SYSTEMS

A unique use of the AUX IN/OUT jack is for connecting two Long Ranger systems together for simultaneous use.
When connected in this manner, they will operate like a single system.  It is best to use two different Long Ranger
units that operate on different frequencies.  Any input on either Long Ranger will appear at both speakers.  If the
Long Ranger systems are on the same frequency, only one transmitter can be used at any given moment.

Second channel (add-on) wireless systems on either (or both) Long Ranger systems will work fine, as long as they
are all on different frequencies.  Each wireless microphone will have its own volume control.  The built-in wireless in
each Long Ranger will be controlled by the left-hand knob on the matching unit.  The volume of each add-on wireless
system will be controlled by the right-hand knob on the matching unit.  All sound from all wireless microphones will
appear on all loudspeakers, both built-in or external.

Connect the Long Ranger systems together with a standard RCA (phono) patch cord, male plug to male plug.  It is
best to use cords 10 to 12 ft. in length (or less) to minimize noise that can occur with long cables.

Connect two 

Long Rangers 
together using 

the AUX IN/OUT 

jacks.

Figure 5 - Connecting Two Long Ranger Systems

If any of the Long Rangers or add-on wireless system are on the same frequency, only one transmitter can be used
at a time on that frequency.  REMEMBER that if two transmitters on the same frequency are turned on at the same
time, the receiver will not receive either of them properly.  You will need to “alternate” the use of the transmitters.

The INITIAL EQUIPMENT ADJUSTMENTS (see page 6) should be performed on each system individually before
the AUX IN/OUT interconnection is made.  After the units are connected together, adjust the volume on each Long
Ranger for the loudness level needed.
