1. Unscrew the
BATTERY COMPARTMENT COVER (17)
and remove, exposing the
BATTERY HOLDER (18)
. Insert a fresh
9V ALKALINE BATTERY (19)
, observing the
correct polarity as marked, and screw the cover back on to the microphone.
Make sure the cover is screwed on completely. A fresh alkaline battery can
last up to 16 hours in use, but in order to ensure optimum performance, it is
recommended that you replace the battery after every 10 hours of use.
2. Turn on the WHT by sliding the
OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (20)
to the STANDBY
position (transmitter on, audio muted) or the ON position (transmitter and audio
both on). The
BATTERY INDICATOR LED (21)
will give a single quick flash, indicating
usable battery strength. In the case of a dead or low battery, the LED will either
not go on at all or will stay on continuously, indicating that the battery should be
replaced with a fresh one. To preserve battery life, turn the transmitter off when
not in use.
3. The microphone is now ready to use. The A and/or B
DIVERSITY LED INDICATORS
(3)
and most or all of the
RF LEVEL DISPLAY LEDs (4)
on the Encore II receiver
should now be lit, indicating a received signal from the transmitter. When ready
to speak, slide the transmitter switch to the ON position. Adjust the volume
of the receiver as per the Audio Output Microphone Connection section of
the above Encore II receiver instructions. The
AF LEVEL LED DISPLAY (5)
on the
Encore II receiver will light up to 5 LEDs (4 green and 1 red) for all input signals.
Occasional flickering on and off during use of the top red LED indicator in this
display is normal, however if the red LED stays on continuously, it means the
signal is too loud and there is the possibility of overload distortion. Back off from
the microphone until the red LED indicator only flickers on peaks.
[Note: Observe care in selecting P.A. volume, transmitter location and speaker
placement so that acoustic feedback (howling or screeching) will be avoided.]
[Note: Microphone elements can easily be destroyed by the buildup of salts and
minerals from perspiration and saliva. It is good practice to put a windscreen on
the mic element at all times to protect it.]
