3.3 Bodypack Transmitter Setup
1. Insert battery. Open the hinged battery
compartment by placing your thumb or finger
on the indent labeled OPEN on the battery
door and pushing down, see Figure 6. When
inserting the battery, pay attention to the polari-
ty (+/-) and insert the terminals into the battery
compartment first. Close the battery door by
sliding the door shut.
2. Set the transmitter channel to match the
channel setting on the receiver. The channel
switch on the bodypack is located just under-
neath the battery door, and to the right of the
indent labeled OPEN. Note the channel num-
ber label (0-9) surrounding the opening. The
Bodypack channel must be set to the same
number as the receiver channel, which is dis-
played on the receiver front panel. The chan-
nel setting is determined by which number the
arrowed slot is pointing to. Use a small screw-
driver (supplied) to change the channel setting.
3. Turn on the transmitter by sliding the power
switch to its on position. Check the condition of
the battery by watching the light below the
power switch. The red battery light should flash
once and then go out. If the light stays on, the
battery is weak and should be replaced.
4. Verify that the transmitter is sending. Observe
that the yellow Tx On light on the front panel of
the receiver is lit, an indication that the receiv-
er is picking up the signal from the transmitter.
5. Connect the audio source. If using a lava-
lier or headworn microphone, insert the con-
nector on the end of the mic wire, into the con-
nector on the Bodypack. If using a lavalier
mic, use the clip to attach the mic to the users
clothing. If using the headworn mic, place the
headset on the user’s head, positioning the
mic at the corner of their mouth. If using a gui-
tar system, connect the
1
/4” plug into the instru-
ment.
NOTE: Keep the audio muted while plug-
ging in and adjusting the microphone or
source. Placement of lavalier and headworn
microphones will noticeably change the sound
quality, so some testing with the user is neces-
sary. An important point to remember, the
closer to the sound source, the stronger or
louder the signal.
6. Unmute the audio, by sliding the large
AUDIO switch located on the Bodypack, to
the ON position. Speak or sing into the
microphone and you should hear your voice
through the PA / sound system.
7. Listen carefully to the audio and be sensi-
tive of overload distortion and low gain.
8. Adjust the transmit gain if necessary.
Gently insert the provided screwdriver or
other 3/32-in. (2.5 mm) screwdriver into the
gain adjustment located at the top edge of
the battery compartment under the door. The
door has to be opened but not swung upward
to make adjustments. Turn lightly until the
screwdriver tip drops into the slot on the level
control. Gently turn the control counterclock-
wise until the control stops (the audio output
is attenuated but not “off”). Slowly turn the
audio level control clockwise while listening
to audio; if the audio becomes distorted, turn
the mic level control counter-clockwise about
1/8 turn.
9. Check reception by observing that the yel-
low Tx On light is lit on the receiver’s front
panel.
10. Clip the bodypack to the user’s belt, pock-
et, or guitar strap. The bodypack can be
positioned horizontally or vertically by moving
the belt clip attachment. This is done by
removing the belt clip attachment screw,
rotating the clip to the desired position, and
replacing the screw.
