2Shure SLX WirelessShure SLX WirelessSmart, Hard-working WirelessCongratulations! Welcome to Shure SLX Wireless. Your new system is rugged, reliable, easy to set up and operate, and produces outstanding audio clarity. Whether you’re a vocalist, guitarist, or instru-mentalist, your SLX Wireless system will show you how easy wireless can be, and how good wireless can sound.This user guide and the Quick Setup guide included with your system will tell you all you need to know to get your system working right away.Welcome to the world of SLX: smart, hard-working wireless.Frequency Band SelectionMost countries closely regulate the radio frequencies used in the transmission of wireless informa-tion. These regulations state which devices can use which frequencies, and help to limit the amount of RF (radio frequency) interference in all wireless communications.To be flexible enough to operate worldwide, SLX receivers are available in multiple dedicated fre-quency models. Each dedicated frequency range, or band, spans up to 24 MHz of the wireless broad-cast spectrum. Available bands are:H5: 518–542 MHzJ3: 572–596 MHzL4: 638–662 MHzP4: 702–726 MHzR5: 800–820 MHzS6: 838–865 MHzJB: 806–810 MHzQ4: 740–752 MHzTo facilitate system setup and protect against RF interference, each system comes with multiple predefined frequency groups and channels. When using a single SLX system, the operating frequency will generally not have to be changed. In an installation with multiple receiver/transmitter systems, each system must operate on a separate channel. The group and channel system provides an optimum frequency spread when using multiple systems.Within a single frequency band, up to 12 individual transmitter/receiver systems may be used in a single installation. In regions where additional frequency bands are available, it is possible to operate up to 20 systems simultaneously. Check with your local Shure retailer for information on which bands are available in your area.What Do You Want to Do Now?Learn about your SLX4 ReceiverPower, lock/unlock, front and back panel features: See “SLX4 Receiver Features” on page 5 and “SLX4 Receiver Programming” on page 9.Learn about your SLX2 Handheld TransmitterPower, mute, gain, lock/unlock, other features: See “SLX2 Handheld Transmitter” on page 6 and “SLX1 and SLX2 Transmitter Programming” on page 10.Learn about your SLX1 Bodypack TransmitterPower, mute, gain, lock/unlock, other features: See “SLX1 Bodypack Transmitter” on page 7 and “SLX1 and SLX2 Transmitter Programming” on page 10.Program your SLX Receiver and TransmitterFrequency selection, LCD features, using the select and menu buttons: See “SLX Programming” on page 9.Learn how to use multiple systems in a single installationSee “Multiple System Setup” on page 8.Troubleshoot your SLX systemSee “Troubleshooting” on page 12.

12Shure SLX WirelessReceiver Volume ControlThe volume control dial should generally be left in the clockwise position. Turning the dial counter-clockwise decreases receiver output level. If adjustments are necessary, use a small screw-driver to turn the dial.Tips for Improving System Performance●Maintain a line of sight between transmitter and antenna●Avoid placing the receiver near metal surfaces or any digital equipment (CD players, computers, etc.)●Secure the AC adapter cable to the receiver using the cable retainer loop●If rack-mounting the receiver, front-mount the antennas as shown on page 8.TroubleshootingIssue Indicator Status SolutionNo sound or faint soundTransmitter power light off• Turn transmitter on (see pages 6 and 7)• Make sure the +/- indicators on battery match the transmitter terminals• Insert a fresh batteryReceiver power light off• Make sure AC adapter is securely plugged into electrical outlet and intoDC input connector on rear panel of receiver• Make sure AC electrical outlet works and is supplying proper voltageReceiver display indicates antenna activity• Press mute switch on transmitter (see pages 6 and 7)• Turn up receiver volume control (see page 5)• Increase transmitter gain switch setting (see pages 6 and 7)• Check cable connection between receiver and amplifier or mixerReceiver display indicates no antenna activity; transmitter and receiver power lights glowing• Extend receiver antennas vertically• Move receiver away from metal objects• Check for line of sight between transmitter and receiver• Move transmitter closer to receiver• Check that receiver and transmitter are using the same frequencyTransmitter power light glowing red• Replace transmitter batteriesIncompatible warning on transmitter•The incompatible warning indicates that the receiver and transmitter aretransmitting on different frequency bands. Contact your Shure retailer forassistance.Distortion or unwanted noise burstsReceiver display indicates antenna activity• Remove nearby sources of RF interference (CD players, computers,digital effects, in-ear monitor systems, etc.)• Change receiver and transmitter to a different frequency (see page 9)• Reduce transmitter gain (see pages 6 and 7)• Replace transmitter battery• If using multiple systems, increase the frequency spread betweensystems (see page 9).Distortion level increases graduallyTransmitter power light glowing red• Replace transmitter batteriesSound level different from cabled guitar or microphone, or when using different guitars• Adjust transmitter gain (see pages 6 and 7) and receiver volume (seepage 5) as necessary
