Rackmounting the Receiver There are 2 options available tar rackmaunting the UHF-4 receiver: singly or sidevby- side with another UHF-4 Series receiver. 0. Single mounting: Remove the receiver SIDE MOUNT CLIP (I) (tom each side ol the receive! (as shown) and slide in the optional ERM-3 RACK EARS (2) b. Side-by-side double mounting: Altar removing the SIDE MOUNT CLIPS (I)trom both UHF-4 receivers, ioin the two receivers with the EJC-3 JOINING CLIP (3) and attach the ERM-SS RACK EARS (4) as shown. {Note' Do not mount the receiver in a rack directly above an amplilier or other source at high heat — this could degrade the perlormanco at tho UHF-4. Always ensure adequate airflow and heat dissipation in any rack configuration.) 2. Powering the Receiver Plug IheI 5V/0.3A AC/DC ADAPTER (5) provided irtlo the DC INPUT JACK”) on the back at the receiver. Then plug the power supply into an AC outlet. Press the POWER SWITCH (I I ) once to turn on the receiver. The POWER ON LED (I 1) will new light and the receiver is operational, 3. Antennas The UHF-4 receiver is supplied with TELESCOPIC ANTENNAS (I 5). These should be extended tully to obtain maximum range. Optimal antenna position is 45 degrees tram the receiver (at 90 degrees tram each other). For maximum range, it is always best to maintain a line at sight (no obstructions) between the receiver antennas and the transmitter ol all times whenever possible. 4, Mute (Squelch) Adiustment ln normal operation, the SQUELCH CONTROL (6) should he set iutly clockwise to the tactory preset RF level (Max. Sens). However, in areas at high RF activity, the squelch (or mute, as it is sometimes called) may need to but adiusted to compensate tor the adverse conditions in a particular location. It, with the transmitter all, the receiver's A and/or 8 DIVERSITY LED INDICATORS (“t 3) tlictrer or stay on, the squelch control should be turned counterclockwise Until the A and/or B LEDs extinguish When the squelch is properly adiusled, the A or B LEDs will only light when the transmitter is turned on. Turning the squelch control too tar counterclockwise will reduce the range, but yield a quieter squelch (mute) IUI’ICIIOTI. During operation, especially at ranges greater than 75 last, one or the other at the A or B LIEDs may alternate brielly. This is normal- the units DigITRU Diversityw reception ensures that the received audio will not be interrupted When both LED; extinguish, the transmitter is out at range tor that given location, and the user should move closer to the receiver to re~eslabtish the radio link. 6. Instrument Use Secure the connection tram the GT CABLE (30) by turning the slip ring on the plug into the transmitter clockwise to thread It on the lack. To unplug, reverse the process. Plug the V4” phone plug into the instrumant, When ready to play, slide the audio MUTE SWITCH (26) to STANDBV position Adjust the volume at the receive! as per the Audio Output Instrument Connection section at the above UHF-4 receiver instruction. (Note: The INPUT LEVEL CONTROL {28} is deactivated and not used when the UB~4 is in INSTRUMENT mode. Levels should be adjusted with the volume control olyaur instrument.) (Note: Scratchy naisos can somatimos occur when some aleclrl'c guitars with dirty pots or connections are used with any wirelass system. Therefore, tho supplied tNSTRUMENT CORD (30) has a laclory installed capacitor inside the VA“ plug This capacitor provides first order filtering at the RF signal tram Ihe cord into the guitar and eliminates virtually all scratchy noisas. Should your equipment slill give you scratchy noises, we suggest these steps to eliminate them- i) Make sure all guitar volume and Ions pots are clean and all contacts are solid—this is vary important, 2) A 47pl capacitor soldered across the hot to ground terminals al the guitar's volume and tone pals will provide extra littering.) 7. Microphone Use (with either a tavalier or headwom microphone] Secure the connection tom the LAVALIER (sitar HEADWORN MIC CORD (31) by turning the slip ring on the plug into the transmitter clockwise to thread it on to the tack. To unplug, reverse the process. To use lhs lavalier ntic, attach it at chest levol. Do not place it too close to the mouth—a distance ol about six inches usually works best. To use the headworn mic, place it on the head and adiust the boom so that the mic is about one inch lo the side at the lront ol the mouth. As the microphone cord also serves as the antenna, be sure to extend it fully. Rolling up or shortening the card may reduca the elleclive operating range-keep it as straight as passihle. When ready to speak, slide the OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (26) to the ON position. Adlust the volume 01 the receiver as per the Audio Output Microphone Connection saclian ol the above UHF-4 receiver instruction. (Nora: Observe care in selecting RA. volume, transmitter location and speaker placement so that acoustic leedbock (howling and screeching) will be avolded. Please also note the pickup pattern characteristics ol the microphone selected. Omnidirectional mics pick Up sound equally lrom all directions, anal are prone to lesdback i/ not used carelully. Unidirectional mics are more resistant to lace/back, but pick up sound sources best that are directly in front at the mic. Also, mics that are larther tram the sound source, such as lavaliors, require more acoustic gain and thus are also more prone to feedback than close-source mics such as handheld or Iteadworii models tltal are used close to the mouth]. For optimum periorntanco, on lNPUT LEVEL CONTROL (28) is provided. Adiust the gain by turning the control with a small screw driver. For lavalier mic use, it is recommended that the level be set at about 1/2 maximum. For headwom mic use, it may be advisable to turn the gain dawn somewhat, depending on the volume levels expected. in eitlicr application, experiment and sat tor maximum possible gain without audible distortion on the high level peaks. (Nate: Turning dawn the gain too much can compromise the signal-tannin and is not recommended.) The UHF-4 receiver is equipped with a 5 segment IED AF LEVEL DISPLAY (14). Occasional flickering at the top AF Peak LED indicator on laud inputs to the transmitter is normal. It this tED lights continuously, but it the LED stays lit continuously, turn down the INPUT LEVEL CONTROL (28) on the UB-4 transmitter, or noticeable distortion may result. s’ YSTEM FEATURES UHF-4 RECEIVER ' Unprecedunied value in a Iull»lsulumd single-channel UHF wireless mic syslem —w'lil1 inierlerence-lree nenrelion In any opplicollon er locale on seleci UHF Irequenciss lrom 720 ie 305 Mhz ' HalI-rack receiver design wilh relrocleble lronl pancll dual onlennas and unique snap-cu! ponol locking labs Iol single receiver or dual receiver (side- by-sicle) opflonol rack mounling - Nudy's preprzelury compandlng cimuilry for an induslry besl 120dtl Dynamic Rongn, and ihe clcoresl, mosl nolurol sound ovoilablo ' Tone Squalchl" Icr locking oui pOIOnllfll inierlorcrico - UHF-4 receiver willi DigITRU Dzirersllym lor maximum range and drepeui preieclien, Iull LED indicelors, bolh V4“ unbalanced and XLR balanced oulpuls, and special circuilry lor noiseless Irunsmiller ON/OFF swilcliing - Mule [squelch] odiusl conlrol - Exlsmolly powered by AC/DC power odoplar INPUT SEIECTOR SWITCHES iii Headwom Hc-j , c c.
