Thank you for purchasing Azden's 105 wireless microphone system. Depending on which system you ordered this package will contain one or more of the following compo- nents: the 105UPR receiver, the 15BT body-pack transmitter with EX-503L lavalier mi- crophone, the 15XT XLR plug-in transmitter andlor the 15HT handheld microphone transmitter. This equipment is designed primarily for video cameras but is usable with most electronic components having a microphone level input. The 105UPR allows you to "receive" audio from one transmitter at a time. RECEIVER (105UPR) * (1) Remove the battery compartment lid by sliding it down. (2) Insert two fresh Alkaline* "AA" batteries into the compartment. Make sure the battery .2, polarity is correct as marked inside the battery compartment. (3) POWER: Switches the receiver "ON" or "OFF". (4) MIC OUT jack: The 105UPR is supplied with a mini-to-mini cable. For mini jack microphone inputs: Use the supplied mini-to-mini cable. Plug one end of the cable into the receiver and the other end of the cable into the micro- phone input of the video camera. For 3-pin XLR microphone inputs: Use the optional mini-to-XLR cable (MX-1). Plug the mini-plug end of the cable into the receiver (use the screw-down sleeve to secure it to the receiver) and plug the XLR end of the cable into the micro- phone input of the video camera. i (5) Frequency Selection: Frequency adjustment is accomplished by setting the controls inside the battery com- partment. With the frequency GROUP dial on the left (column A on the included chart) you can select any of 10 frequency groups (numbered 0-9). With the frequency CHAN- .1 NEL dial on the right (column B on the included chart) you can select any of 10 frequency channels (numbered 0-9). There are 92 possible combinations. (6) Phone Jack: Plug an earphone into this jack to monitor the sound. The jack is wired to work with either mono or stereo headphones (you will hear mono in both ears). (7) LED indicator: This LED turns RED when the receiver is turned "ON" and GREEN when receiving a signal from the transformer.
(8) Phone Output Adjustment: Using the supplied tool, turn the screw clockwise to in- crease earphone level and counterclockwise to decrease. (9) Shoe-Mount: Attach the 105UPR to the shoe-mount of the video camera by sliding it into place. Turn the thumbwheel clockwise to tighten. Reverse this procedure to remove. (10) Antenna: For best reception the antenna should be pointed in an upward fashion. Use caution, and do not force it into this position. BODYPACK TRANSMITTER (15BT) 3 (1 1) Remove the battery compartment lid by sliding it down. \ 2 (12) Insert two fresh "AA" Alkaline* batteries into the compartment. Make sure the bat- tery polarity is correct as marked inside the battery compartment. In addition to the battery, inside the battery compartment you will find: (13) MIC lnput LEVEL Control: This control enables you to adjust the input level of the microphone. Using the supplied tool, turn the dial clockwise to increase, or counterclockwise to decrease the input level. (14) POWER: Switches the transmitter "ON" or "OFF", (15) MIC lnput Jack: Plug the supplied EX-503L microphone into the MIC input jack and tighten the collar until snug (DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN). In addition to the EX-503L, other lapel andlor headset microphones with 3.5mm mini plugs can also be used withithe 15BT. (1 6) Frequency Selection: Frequency adjustment is accomplished by setting the controls inside the battery com- partment. With the frequency GROUP dial on the left (column A on the included chart) you can select any of 10 frequency groups (numbered 0-9). With the frequency CHAN- NEL dial on the right (column B on the included chart) you can select any of 10 frequency 1; channels (numbered 0-9). There are 92 possible combinations. i' (17) Audio Standby: The AudiolStandby switch ierves as a mute switch. In the STBY position the audio out- put from the 15BT is muted while in the ON position audio is transmitted. (1 8) Belt clip
XLR PLUG-IN TRANSMITTER (15XT) (19) Open the battery compartment lid and insert 2 fresh "AA" Alkaline batteries. Make sure the battery polarity is correct as marked inside the battery compartment (20) POWER: Switches the transmitter "ON" or "OFF" (21) AUDIO: Prior to first turning the 15XT "ON" it is best to set the AUDIO switch to "OFF". When 'i you are ready to begin transmitting, switch to "ON". The "OFF" position acts as a 'mutete" that maintains the RF signal but turns off the audio. (22) MIC ConnectorlLocking Ring: This 3-pin XLR connector is the microphone input. Any low impedance microphone with a corresponding connector can be attached here. Once the microphone is plugged into the 15XT the locking ring should be rotated clockwise until snug. To remove the microphone, first rotate the locking ring counterclockwise and then, while pressing the XLR release, pull the microphone away from the 15XT. (23) MIC Input LEVEL Control: The MIC input LEVEL control enables you to adjust the inpd level.of the connected microphone. Using the supplied tool, turn the dial clockwise to increase, or counter- clockwise to decrease the input level. (24) Frequency Selection: Frequency adjustment is accomplished by setting the controls ingMe the battery com- partment. With the frequency GROUP dial on the left (column A on the included chart) you can select any of 10 frequency groups (numbered 0-9). With the frequency CHAN- NEL dial on the right (column B on the included chart) you can select any of 10 fre- quency channels (numbered 0-9). There are 92 possible combinations.
HANDHELD MlCROPHONErTRANSMlTTER (15HT) (24) Remove the battery compartment cover by rotating it counterclockwise and sliding it down. (25) Insert two fresh Alkaline* "AA" batteries* into the compartment. Make sure the battery polarity is correct as marked inside the battery compartment. In the battery compartment you.will also find #26 and #27: (26) MIC LEVEL Control: The MIC LEVEL control enables you to adjust the audio level of the microphone. Using the supplied tool, turn the dial clockwise to increase, or counterclockwise to decrease the microphone's audio level. (27) Frequency Selection: Frequency adjustment is accomplished by setting thecontrols inside'the battery compartment. With the frequency GROUP dial on the left (column Aon the included chart) you can select any of 10 frequency groups (numbered 0-9). With the frequency CHANNEL dial on the right (column B on the included chart) you can select any'of 10 frequency channels (numbered 0-9). There are 92 possible combinations.
Operating the system Because this is a frequency agile system, the receiver and transmitter must be on the same Receivenransmit frequency. Follow the instruction #5,16,24 and 27. Make sure both the receiver and transmitter are on the same channel. 105U PR Receiver After installing new batteries, mount the receiver to your video camera with the supplied shoe mount or hook & loop fastener. Connect the output cable to the receiver and to the microphone input on the vide mmera. Switch the 105UPR to "ON" and the power 6 indicator (7) should come o I? ,~ed'? If it doesn't, check the batteries. When the 105UPR receives a signal from the transmitter the LED indicator will change tmen: If it does not, 4 make sure both the receiver and transmitter are on matching channhs: 15BT Transmitter Plug in the supplied lapel microphone and clip it to your subject. The microphone should be placed 4-12 inches from your subject's mouth. Clip the transmitter to a belt using the supplied belt-clip or place it in a pocket. Switch the 15BT to "ON" and the power indicator should come on. If it does not, check the batteries. Have someone speak into the microphone as you monitor the sound through the receiver's phone output. If the sound is distorted lower the MIC input level on the transmitter. If there is not enough volume raise the MIC input level on the transmitter. ; 15XT Transmitter Switch the transmitter to "ONn and the power indicator should come on. If it does not, check the batteries. Have someone speak into the microphone as you monitor the sound through the camera's monitor output. If the sound is distorted lower the level control on the transmitter. If there is not enough gain raise the level control on the transmitter. 35HT Transmitter Switch the transmitter to "ONn and the power1 indicator should come on. If it does not, check the batteries. Have someone speak into the microphone as you monitor the sound through the camera's monitor output. If the sound is distorted lower the level control on the transmitter. If there is not enough gain raise the level control on the transmitter. Important information Licensing of this, or any kden wireless equipment Is the user's responsibility.
