1. Snap open the BATTERY COMPARTMENT (30)andinsertafresh9V BATTERY (31),
observing the correct polarity. Close the compartment. The WGT is provided
with a 3.5 mm LOCKING JACK (32)forconnectingtheINSTRUMENT CABLE (35).
To secure the connection, turn the metal slip ring on the plug clockwise to thread
itontothejack.Tounplug,reversetheprocess.Slipthetransmitterintoapocket
or clip on to your clothes or instrument strap. (Note: As the cord to the instrument
also serves as the antenna, be sure to extend it fully for maximum range.
Rolling up or shortening the cord may reduce the effective operating range.)
2. Turn on the WGT by sliding the OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (32)totheSTANDBY

not go on at all or will stay on continuously, indicating that the battery should be
replaced with a fresh one.

However, for ultra high‑gain instrument sources such as active bass pickups or
evenextrahotguitarpickups,turningtheleveldownslightlywillcreatea
cleaner sound. (Note: Turning down the input gain too much can compromise
the signal-to-noise ratio and is not recommended. Set for the maximum possible
gain and headroom without noticeable distortion on the high level peaks).
The AF LEVEL LED DISPLAY (5) on the Encore DUET receiver will light up to 5 LEDs
(4greenand1red)forallinputsignals.Occasionalickeringonandoffduring

(Note: Scratchy noises can sometimes occur when some electric guitars/basses
with dirty pots or connections are used with any wireless system. For this reason,
the supplied INSTRUMENT CORD (35) has a factory installed capacitor inside
the 1/4" plug. This capacitor provides first order filtering of the RF signal from
the cord into the guitar and eliminates virtually all scratchy noises. Should your
equipment still give you scratchy noises, we suggest these steps to eliminate them:
1) Make sure all guitar volume and tone pots are clean and all contacts
are solid—this is very important.
2) Provide extra filtering with a 220 pF capacitor soldered across the
hot to ground terminals of the guitar's volume and tone pots.)
