Features
The UWP-D11/D12/D16 (UWP-D series) Wireless
Microphone Packages comprise a transmitter (body-pack
transmitter (UTX-B03), hand-held microphone
(UTX-M03), or plug-on transmitter (UTX-P03)) and a
receiver (portable diversity tuner (URX-P03)). In
combination with a compact camcorder or
interchangeable-lens digital camera, the packages can be
used for various purposes, such as ENG (Electronic News
Gathering), EFP (Electronic Field Production), sports
events, and weddings.
They are equipped with a DSP for transmission of highquality sound using digital compander processing. They
can be used in combination with current Sony analog
wireless microphone systems (UWP series, WRT series,
WRR series, WRU series) by switching the compander
mode.
The frequency and compander mode set on the tuner can
be sent to the transmitter using an infrared
communications link. Used in combination with the Clear
Channel Scan function of the tuner, this greatly reduces
the time required to set channels.
The contents of each package are described below.

Power Supply
Inserting the batteries
Notes
This section describes the power supply of each device
and the charging of nickel metal hydride batteries.
Body-pack transmitter (UTX-B03) and plug-on
transmitter (UTX-P03)
The unit operates using power supplied from two AA
batteries (alkaline, nickel metal hydride, or lithium
batteries) or from a supply connected to the USB
connector. If power is supplied simultaneously from
batteries and from a supply connected to the USB
connector, power from the USB connector has
precedence. For details about inserting batteries in each
device and displaying the battery level, or supplying
power from a supply connected to the USB connector, see
the following sections.
Hand-held microphone (UTX-M03)
The unit operates from two AA batteries (alkaline, nickel
metal hydride, or lithium batteries). For details about
inserting batteries and displaying the battery level, see the
following sections.
Portable diversity tuner (URX-P03)
The unit operates from two AA batteries (alkaline, nickel
metal hydride, or lithium batteries), power supplied from
a supply connected to the USB connector, or power
supplied from the auxiliary connector. The power supply
that has precedence when both AA battery power and an
external power supply via the USB connector or auxiliary
connector are available can be specified using the PWR
SOURCE (external power selection) function. Under the
factory default setting, the power supplied from inserted
AA batteries has precedence. For details about inserting
batteries and displaying the battery level, or supplying
power from supply connected to the USB connector, see
the following sections.
• Always use sets of the same type of battery. Do not use
batteries of different types or batteries with different
charge level together.
• Replacing the batteries during operation may generate
a large noise. Be sure to turn off the unit before
replacing the batteries.
Body-pack transmitter (UTX-B03) / plugon transmitter (UTX-P03) / portable
diversity tuner (URX-P03)
The following describes the procedure using illustrations
for the body-pack transmitter (UTX-B03). Batteries can
be inserted in the plug-on transmitter (UTX-P03) and
portable diversity tuner (URX-P03) in the same manner.
Press and hold the POWER/MUTING button to turn
the power off.

Notes
• When BATTERY is set to TYPE1, the battery level is
indicated based on the use of new LR6 (size AA) Sony
alkaline batteries. The battery level may not be
displayed correctly when different kinds of batteries,
different brand of batteries, or old batteries are used. If
using batteries other than size AA alkaline batteries,
select the battery type using the BATTERY function.
• If you plan to use the transmitter continuously for a long
period of time, it is recommended that you replace the
batteries with brand new ones.
• Battery power is gradually consumed, even when the
unit is turned off. Remove the batteries from the unit
before prolonged periods of disuse.
For details on the BATTERY function setting, see “Setting
the battery type (BATTERY)” (page 24).
Battery precautions
Batteries may leak or explode if mistreated. Be sure to
follow these instructions.
• Insert batteries in the correct 3 and # polarity
orientation.
• Always replace the two batteries together with new
ones.
• Do not use different types of batteries or old and new
ones together.
• Dry cells are not rechargeable.
• When not using the device for a long period of time,
remove the batteries. If the batteries leak for any reason,
consult your Sony service representative.

Important Notes on Use
Specifications
Usage and storage
Design and specifications are subject to change without
notice.
• Operating the UWP-D series devices near electrical
equipment (motors, transformers, or dimmers) may
cause interference due to electromagnetic induction.
Keep the devices as far from such equipment as
possible.
• The presence of lighting equipment may produce
electrical interference over a wide frequency range. In
this case, interference may fluctuate with the position of
the tuner antenna and position of the transmitter.
Position the devices so that interference is minimized.
• To avoid degradation of the signal to noise ratio, do not
use UWP-D devices in noisy places or in locations
subject to vibration, such as the following:
– Near electrical equipment, such as motors,
transformers, or dimmers
– Near air conditioning equipment or places subject to
direct air flow from an air conditioner
– Near PA (public address) loudspeakers
– Near equipment that might knock against the tuner
Keep devices as far from such equipment as possible or
use buffering material.
Cleaning
Clean the surface and the connectors of devices with a
dry, soft cloth. Never use thinners, benzene, alcohol, or
any other chemicals, since these may mar the finish.
To prevent electromagnetic interference
Some channels may be unable to be used due to noise
generated due to the effects of external noise and/or
radio interference. In this case, it is recommended to
stop transmitting (turn the power off) or change to
another frequency (change channel).
To prevent electromagnetic interference from
portable communication devices
The use of portable telephones and other
communication devices near the devices may result in
malfunction and interference with audio signals. It is
recommended that portable communication equipment
near the devices be turned off.
