Lavalier Mic /Transmitter Operation: Turn on the Transmitter by pushing the Transmitter OFF/STANDBY/ON switch to the STANDBY position. The battery indicator will give a single quick flash. This indicates usable battery strength. In the case of a dead or low battery, the indicator will either not go on at all or will stay on continuously, indicating a battery voltage below 7V. If this occurs, replace with a fresh 9V battery. To preserve battery strength, turn the Transmitter off when not in use. The Transmit (receive) LED indicator on the Receiver should now be lit. Clip the Transmitter to belt or place in pocket. Attach the Lavalier Microphone at chest level. Do not place too close to mouth-a distance of six inches usually works best. The Lavalier mic wire is the transmit antenna, and rolling up or shortening wire may reduce effective range. Extend wire fully during use, and keep it as straight as possible. When ready to speak into microphone, turn on microphone by pushing the OFF/STANDBY/ON Switch to the ON position. Receiver Volume Control Adjust Turn the Volume control on the Receiver clockwise to near full gain. Adjust volume up or down so that no audio distortion is present when amp or mixer are set at their usual levels. At full gain, the system gain is approximately 4 dB higher than a direct microphone-to-amp connection. Level Trim Adjust For optimum performance, a level trim control is provided. Adjust the microphone gain with a small slot-headed screwdriver through the adjustment hole, located on the back of the Transmitter. Set for maximum possible gain without noticeable distortion on the high level peaks. Turning Trim Control clockwise increases audio level; turning counterclockwise decreases level. 7
