ENGLISH THE TWO MINUTE USER’S GUIDE 2:00 The instructions on this page will help you get your UT Series system up and running in minutes. For more detailed instructions, read the section of this manual that applies to your system. RECEIVER SETUP 1. Connect the supplied ac power adapter to the DC INPUT connector on the back of the receiver. Insert the adapter’s cable into the power cable retainer on the bottom of the unit. Plug the adapter into a wall socket or other electrical outlet. The green POWER light on the receiver will glow. 2. If you are using The Guitarist-UHF, connect the receiver output to a guitar amplifier using any standard guitar cable. If you are using The Vocal Artist-UHF, The Headset-UHF, or The Presenter-UHF, connect the receiver output to an audio mixer using an XLR to XLR audio cable. 3. Raise the antennas and point away from each other at a 45° angle from vertical. TRANSMITTER SETUP 1. Open the transmitter battery compartment and install a 9 V battery. Observe proper battery polarity (“+/–”). 2. If you are using The Vocal Artist-UHF, no further transmitter setup is required. 3. If you are using a body-pack transmitter (The Presenter-UHF, The Headset-UHF or The Guitarist-UHF), plug the microphone cable or a WA302 instrument cable into the four-pin connector on the transmitter (if using The Headset-UHF, see tag on headset for assembly instructions). If using The Guitarist-UHF, plug the instrument cable into the guitar output and adjust the volume control of the guitar. OPERATING THE SYSTEM 1. Slide the transmitter POWER/OFF switch to the POWER position. The transmitter’s green POWER light and the receiver’s yellow DIVERSITY A/B lights will glow. 2. Slide the MUTE/ON switch on the body-pack or hand-held transmitter to the ON position. 3. Talk or sing into the microphone, or play your guitar. The receiver’s red AUDIO PEAK light should flicker when loud sounds are transmitted. If the AUDIO PEAK light does not flicker or stays on constantly, the transmitter gain may need adjustment. (Refer to the Transmitter Audio Gain Adjustment section). NOTE: This step is particularly important for The Guitarist system, since guitar outputs can vary widely. 4. Adjust the receiver VOLUME control until the receiver output level matches the level of your guitar or microphone through a cable. (The factory setting is in the full clockwise position.) If using The Guitarist-UHF system, see Receiver Volume Adjustment for The Guitarist-UHF to match the receiver volume level to the level of a wired system. YOU ARE NOW READY TO PERFORM! IMPORTANT: Every wireless performance is a unique situation, and can present a variety of problems. Never attempt a performance without first conducting a “walkthrough” test on the wireless system in the performing area. If you encounter a problem, refer to the Troubleshooting table.

INTRODUCTION Your new UT Series system is designed to give you the best of both sound reinforcement worlds: the freedom of a wireless system, and the reliability of world-famous Shure sound quality. This manual covers each of the UT Series systems: The Vocal Artist-UHF, The Presenter-UHF, The Headset-UHF, and The Guitarist-UHF. SYSTEM FEATURES All Shure UT Series systems offer a variety of of exceptional features, including: • Diversity Receivers with Exclusive Shure MARCAD Circuitry: MARCAD (MAximum Ratio Combining Audio Diversity) circuitry continuously processes the rf signal from each antenna and combines the audio outputs to produce one signal of optimum quality. The result is improved reception and exceptional freedom from dropouts. • Low-Traffic UHF Transmission: UT systems use a UHF (Ultra High Frequency) range between approximately 596 to 862 MHz (available frequencies depend on regulations in the country where the system is used). In urban areas, UHF frequencies are less congested than those in the VHF range, and are less susceptible to interference. • Multiple System Use: Up to eight UT systems can be used in the same performance space. Each system must be set at a different frequency. If systems are set to the same frequency, contact an authorized Shure dealer. NOTE: In multiple use situations, each transmitter must have a dedicated receiver. • Simultaneous Output Use: Unbalanced 1/4” phone plug and balanced XLR output connectors may be used simultaneously to different external devices. • Stackable and Rack-Mountable Receivers: If multiple systems are in use, receivers may either be stacked or rack-mounted, with two receivers fitting in the optional rack mount tray. In these situations, antennas should not touch or be crossed. (See Stacking and Rack-mounting Receivers.) • Range: UT Series transmitters will work at a distance of up to 100 meters (about 300 ft.) from the receiver. • Noise Squelch: The noise squelch circuit analyzes signal quality instead of signal strength, which allows the circuit to discriminate between noise and desired signal. This reduces the likelihood of noise burst due to environmental rf (radio frequency) noise. • Semi-Rigid Receiver Antennas: Three-inch rubberized antennas offer performance equal to telescoping antennas with added durability. • Low Battery Warning Light: A red light on the body-pack and hand-held transmitters warns the user that there is less than one hour of battery life left. ENGLISH SYSTEM TYPES The Vocal Artist-UHF is a hand-held system designed for singers who desire the high quality of Shure microphones and the freedom of wireless performance. Includes a Shure BG3.1 or SM58 dynamic microphone with a built-in transmitter. The Presenter-UHF is a body-pack system designed for public speakers who prefer an inconspicuous, hands-free lavalier microphone. Features an omnidirectional Shure WL93, supercardioid WL184, or cardioid WL185 micro-miniature lavalier microphone. The Headset-UHF is a body-pack system designed for users in physically active applications, who desire the freedom of hands-free microphone operation along with the performance of Shure wireless equipment. Features a WH20TQG headset microphone. The Guitarist-UHF is a body-pack system designed for use with electric guitars, basses, and other electric instruments. May be used with brass or woodwind instruments, with optional WM98 instrument microphone and mount. The Guitarist provides the freedom of going wireless and the reliability of high quality Shure sound.

SHURE Á UT1 45° SHURE UT4 ÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌ ÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌ FRONT BACK FIGURE 11 12 ENGLISH RECEIVER VOLUME ADJUSTMENT FOR THE GUITARIST-UHF Follow these directions to adjust the volume control of the UT4 receiver, so that the wireless output of an instrument is equivalent to the output of a cabled instrument. 1. Plug instrument directly into guitar/bass amp. Set volume and tone controls on both the instrument and amplifier for a clean signal with desired tonal quality and volume. DO NOT change these settings for the rest of volume adjustment. 2. Unplug instrument from the amplifier input and plug into the transmitter. Plug the receiver into amplifier input. 3. Set VOLUME control of receiver at 1/4 on (9:00). Play instrument, with enough force to cause maximum output. 4. If there is distortion present, the transmitter may be clipping. See the Transmitter Audio Gain Adjustment section. 5. Adjust receiver volume control until sound quality matches that achieved in step 1. TRANSMITTER AUDIO GAIN ADJUSTMENT The audio gain control on both the UT1 body-pack and UT2 hand-held transmitters has been factory-preset at the mid-range position for best performance in most applications. If the red AUDIO PEAK light on the receiver does not flicker, the preset gain level may be too low and the audio gain may need to be increased until a proper signalto-noise ratio is reached. This may be necessary for soft singers or talkers, or guitar or basses with low outputs. For loud singers or talkers, or instruments with high outputs, the preset gain level may be too high, causing unwanted distortion. This condition is indicated by the continuous glow of the red PEAK light on the receiver during usage. ÁÁ ÁÁÁ ÁÁ ÁÁ Á Á ÁÁ ÁÁÁ Á Á ÁÁ Á ÁÁÁÁ ÁÁ ÁÁ Á ÁÁÁ ÁÁÁ ÁÁ ÁÁ UT1 BODY-PACK TRANSMITTER UT2 HAND-HELD TRANSMITTER FIGURE 12 • To Increase Gain: Rotate the transmitter gain control clockwise with the supplied screwdriver until the red AUDIO PEAK light on the receiver flickers when the guitar is played loudly or when you sing or speak in a loud voice. NOTE: In some applications, the red AUDIO PEAK light will not flicker even with the gain control turned fully clockwise. For body-pack systems only: If gain control is rotated fully clockwise and the AUDIO PEAK light still does not flicker, check to see if the input attenuation switch on the transmitter is set to the –20 dB position. If it is, fully rotate the gain control counterclockwise, and move the switch to the 0 dB position. Then rotate the gain control clockwise until the AUDIO PEAK light flickers during high output or the gain control is turned fully clockwise. • To Reduce Gain: Rotate the transmitter gain control counterclockwise with the supplied screwdriver. Continue rotating the gain control until the red AUDIO PEAK light on the receiver only flickers when guitar is played loudly, or when you sing or speak in a loud voice. For body-pack systems only: If gain control is rotated fully counterclockwise and the AUDIO PEAK light still glows continuously, check to see if the input attenuation switch on the transmitter is set to the 0 dB position. If it is, move the switch to the –20 dB position, and fully rotate the gain control clockwise. Then rotate the gain control counterclockwise until the AUDIO PEAK light flickers during high output. To return audio gain to the factory setting, rotate the transmitter audio gain control to the mid position and, on the body-pack only, slide the input attenuation switch to the 0 dB position. 13 ENGLISH BODY-PACK AUDIO GAIN AND ATTENUATION SETTINGS The attenuation switch and the gain control on the UT1 body-pack are designed to be used in conjunction to provide a wide spectrum of gain control choices. The following ranges are starting points; actual output levels may vary. OUTPUT DEVICE ATTENUATION SWITCH SETTING AUDIO GAIN CONTROL SETTING LAVALIER MICROPHONE, CONVERSATIONAL VOICE 0 dB HIGH (clockwise) LAVALIER MICROPHONE, PROJECTED VOICE HEADSET, CONVERSATIONAL VOICE 0 dB MID–RANGE HEADSET, PROJECTED VOICE ELECTRIC GUITAR/BASS, PASSIVE ELECTRONICS 0 dB LOW (counterclockwise) ELECTRIC GUITAR/BASS, PASSIVE ELECTRONICS –20 dB HIGH (clockwise) ELECTRIC GUITAR/BASS, ACTIVE ELECTRONICS –20 dB MID–RANGE ELECTRIC GUITAR/BASS, ACTIVE ELECTRONICS –20 dB LOW (counterclockwise) RECEIVER SQUELCH ADJUSTMENT The squelch control on the UT4 receivers (see figure 1) is factory preset for optimum performance. No further adjustment is normally required. It is possible to adjust the squelch control setting to emphasize either signal quality or system range: • Turning the squelch control clockwise causes the receiver to demand a higher quality signal (less noise before muting), but decreases operating range. • Turning the squelch control counterclockwise allows a lower quality signal through (more noise before muting), but increases operating range. To return the receiver squelch control to the factory setting, rotate it to the mid-range position (so the slot is vertical). TIPS FOR ACHIEVING MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE • Make sure you can always see a receiver antenna from the transmitter position. • Keep the distance from transmitter to receiver antenna as short as possible. • Point receiver antennas away from each other at a 45° angle from vertical. • Avoid placing the receiver antennas near metal surfaces and obstructions. • To mount the receiver on a flat surface, attach the four adhesive rubber feet or the VELCRO mounting strips to the bottom of the receiver. • Monitor battery fuel gauge and replace battery as soon as red light is on. • Let body-pack transmitter antenna hang freely; do not coil or keep in pocket. • If stacking or rack mounting receivers in a multiple-system use situation, do not allow antennas to touch or cross. • Perform a walk-through before performance or presentation. If dead spots are found, adjust location of receiver. If dead spots remain, mark spots and avoid. TROUBLESHOOTING INDICATOR STATUS SOLUTION No sound. PROBLEM Green transmitter POWER light off.
