1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing our product. This in-ear monitor system operates in
UHF band frequency with Phase Locked Loop (PLL) synthesizer controlled. The
system with 16 or 64 selectable frequencies via PLL circuitry makes it easy to
choose non-interfered channels. Please read this instruction manual carefully before
operating the system. This manual covers the function and operation of the in-ear
monitor system.
2. Safety
Do not spill liquid on the appliance and do not drop it on a hard surface.
Do not place the appliance near heat sources, such as radiators, amplifier, etc..
Do not expose it directly to sunlight, extremely dust, excessive moisture, or
vibration.
Unplug the power if the appliance has been not used for a long period. This
will avoid the damage resulted by surge electricity.
3. Feature
IEM-168 is a Low-Power FM broadcasting transmitter. At the same time, it can
send out stereo music (work with CD player, MP3, etc.) and vocal
broadcasting (works with wired or wireless microphone system).
There are up to 16 or 64 selectable channels to set up a multi-channels
broadcasting system and to avoid the frequency inference. Also, the LED
displayer gives us a clear channel indication. And, user can select channels or
groups easily by using rotary switch.
The stereo audio signal (works with CD player, MP3, etc.) can be input easily
through the RCA jack.
The wired microphone can be connected to the 6.3Φ jack or to the XLR
connector.
The Peak LED indicator can help avoiding the audio distortion.
User can plug a headphone into the headphone jack on the front panel to
monitor the sending out audio signal.
IEM-168’s antenna is a high efficiency antenna. The service area can be
improved when the antenna is placed at higher location.
IEM-168 can combine with a RF power booster (AB-168, which is 1Watt max)
to used for an over 1 km area service.

5. Setting-Up
NOTICE: Prior to setting up, please make sure the microphone and the
receiver are turned to the same frequency. Two or above wireless
microphones operating in the same frequency can not be used at the same
time and area. So please select the different frequencies which cam be used
simultaneously at the same area.
5.1 Connecting the transmitter to power
Attach the UHF antenna to the TNC connector on the rear panel.
Please check the voltage of the supplied AC adapter conforms to the voltage
available in local area. Using the wrong AC adapter may cause irreparable
damage to the unit.
Plug the feeder cable of the supplied AC adapter into DC IN socket on the
transmitter. Then plug the AC adapter into a power outlet.
