HANDHELD MICROPHONE 1. Unscrew the BATTERY COMPARTMENT COVER (19) and remove, exposing the BATTERY HOLDER (20). Insert a fresh 9V ALKALINE BATTERY (21), 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 10 hours in use, but in order to ensure optimum performance, it is recommended that you replace the battery after every 7-8 hours of use. 2. Turn on the UH-10 by sliding the OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (22) to the STANDBY position (transmitter on, audio muted) or the ON position (transmitter and audio both on). The BATTERY INDICATOR LED (23) 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 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 URR-10 receiver instructions. [Note: Observe care in selecting P.A. volume, transmitter location and speaker placement so that acoustic feedback (howling or screeching) will be avoided.] 21 20 19 23 22 20 19. BATTERY COMPARTMENT COVER 20. BATTERY HOLDER 21. 9V ALKALINE BATTERY 22. OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH 23. BATTERY INDICATOR LED 8 BODYPACK TRANSMITTER 1. Slide open the hinged BATTERY COMPARTMENT (24) and insert a fresh 9V ALKALINE BATTERY (25), observing the correct polarity. A fresh alkaline battery can last up to 10 hours in use, but in order to ensure optimum performance, it is recommended that the battery be replaced after 7-8 hours of use. 2. The Bodypack Transmitter is equipped with an INPUT SELECTOR SWITCH (26) in the battery compartment for selecting the type of audio input you will be supplying to the transmitter. Select from the choice of three positions: INSTRUMENT (for guitar, bass, etc.)/ HEADWORN MIC/ LAVALIER MIC. 3. The Bodypack Transmitter is provided with a 3.5 mm LOCKING JACK (27) for connecting the audio input selected. Connect either the INSTRUMENT CORD (28) or the HEADWORN MIC (29) or LAVALIER MIC CORD (30) as desired, according to the input selected. (Note: Use only the input audio source as per the input selected with the AUDIO INPUT SELECTOR SWITCH or the audio will not be optimal-a muddy or distorted sound may result.) To secure the connection, turn the slip ring on the plug clockwise to thread it on the jack. To unplug, reverse the process. Slip the transmitter into a pocket or use CLIP (34) to attach it to your clothes or instrument strap (if using as an instrument transmitter). 4. Turn on the Bodypack Transmitter by sliding the OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (31) to the STANDBY position (transmitter on, audio muted) or the ON position (transmitter and audio both on). The BATTERY INDICATOR LED (32) will give a single quick flash, indicating usable battery strength. In the case of a dead or low battery, the LED either will 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. The transmitter is now ready to use. The A and/or B DIVERSITY LED INDICATORS (3) and most or all of the RF DISPLAY LEDs (4) on the receiver should now be lit, indicating a received signal from the transmitter. 5. Instrument Use Plug the 1/4" phone plug from the INSTRUMENT CORD (28) into the instrument. 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. When ready to play, slide the audio OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (31) to the ON position. Adjust the volume of the receiver as per the Audio Output Instrument Connections section of the above receiver instructions. For optimum performance, an INPUT LEVEL CONTROL (33) is provided on the top panel of the Bodypack transmittert. Adjust the gain by turning the control with your thumb. For instrument use, it is recommended that this control be turned to maximum gain. However, for ultra highgain 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). 9
