Guided Tour - ST5
6: Attenuation switch
- The ST5 transmitter features a signal Attenuation switch that is used
to select the input level of “0dB” or “-15dB”. This Attenuation switch has been factory preset to
“0dB” providing the optimum level for most microphone and instrument input signals. If you are
using a microphone or instrument with a high output signal, first try to adjust the Gain control as
described in the following section. If you cannot attenuate the signal low enough using the Gain
control, use the supplied plastic screwdriver (see #9 below) to turn the rotary Attenuation switch
to the counter-clockwise position setting the ST5 to “-15dB” level.
7: Gain control (trimpot)
- This input gain control has been factory preset to a nominal level so
we recommend that this be adjusted only if your signal is too high, or too low. If necessary, how-
ever, you can use the supplied plastic screwdriver (see #9 below) to raise or lower the ST5 Gain
control. See the “Setting Up and Using Your Stage 55 Series / Stage 5 Series System” section on
page 12 in this manual for more information.
8: Battery holder
- Insert a standard 9-volt alkaline battery here, being sure to observe the
plus and minus polarity markings shown. We recommend the Duracell MN 1604 type battery.
Although rechargeable Ni-Cad batteries can be used, they do not supply adequate current for
more than four hours.
WARNING:
Do not insert the battery backwards; doing so can cause
severe damage to the ST5 and will void your warranty.
9: Plastic screwdriver
- Specially designed for use in adjusting the ST5 Gain control (see #7
above) and/or receiver Squelch control (see #4 on pages 5 and 7). See the “Setting Up and Using
Your Stage 55 Series / Stage 5 Series System” section on page 12 in this manual for more informa-
tion.
* Be sure to mute the audio signal at your external mixer or amplifier before turning transmitter power
on or off, or an audible pop may result.
