accurate gain adjustment and for battery status.
Wide-Band Deviation
±75 kHz deviation improves the signal to noise ratio and
audio dynamic range of a wireless system dramatically,
compared to other designs that use ±30 kHz to 40 kHz
deviation. Wide deviation combined with a high powered

This advanced feature allows the operator to optimize
the transmitter for maximum battery life, or for maximum
operating range. Power output is selected using the

Some mics require RF protection to keep the radio
signal from affecting the capsule, even though the
transmitter input circuitry is already RF bypassed (see
schematic diagram).
If the mic is wired as directed, and you are having dif-
ficulty with squealing, high noise, or poor frequency
response, RF is likely to be the cause.
The best RF protection is accomplished by installing RF
bypass capacitors at the mic capsule. If this is not pos-
sible, or if you are still having problems, capacitors can
be installed on the mic pins inside the TA5F connector

TroubleshootingBefore going through the following chart, be sure that you have a good battery in the transmitter. It is important that you
follow these steps in the sequence listed.
SYMPTOM
TRANSMITTER PWR LED OFF
1) Battery is inserted backwards or dead.
2) Transmitter not powered up. (See
Operating Instructions,
Power UP and Boot Sequence.)
TRANSMITTER PWR LED BLINKS GREEN EVERY FEW SECONDS, TRANSMITTER
DOES NOT RESPOND OTHERWISE
1) Transmitter has been put to sleep by the remote control.
Either use the remote control to wake it up again or remove
and reinsert the transmitter's battery.
AUDIO LEVEL LEDs NOT LIGHTING
1) Gain control set to minimum.
2) Battery is dead or installed backwards. Check PWR LED.
3) Mic capsule is damaged or malfunctioning.
4) Mic cable damaged or mis-wired.
RECEIVER RF INDICATOR OFF
1) Transmitter not turned on, or is in Standby Mode.
2) Transmitter battery is dead.
3) Receiver antenna missing or improperly positioned.
4) Transmitter and receiver not on same frequency.
Check switches/display on transmitter and receiver.
5) Transmitter and receiver not on same frequency block.
6) Operating range is too great.
7) Defective transmitter antenna.
NO SOUND (OR LOW SOUND LEVEL), RECEIVER INDICATES PROPER AUDIO MODULATION
1) Receiver output level set too low.
2) Receiver output disconnected, or cable defective or mis-wired.
3) Sound system or recorder input is turned down.
DISTORTED SOUND
1) Transmitter gain (audio level) is far too high. Check audio level
LEDs and receiver audio levels during use.
2) Receiver output may be mismatched with the sound system or
recorder input. Adjust output level on receiver to the correct level
for the recorder, mixer or sound system. (Use the receiver's Tone
function to check level.)
3) Transmitter is not set to same frequency as receiver. Check that
operating frequency on receiver and transmitter match.
4) Receiver/Transmitter Compatibility Mode mismatched.
EXCESSIVE FEEDBACK
1) Transmitter gain (audio level) too high. Check gain adjustment
and/or reduce receiver output level.
2) Talent standing too close to speaker system.
3) Mic is too far from user's mouth.
Super-Minature Belt Pack Transmitter
HISS AND NOISE -- AUDIBLE DROPOUTS
1) Transmitter gain (audio level) far too low.
2) Receiver antenna missing or obstructed.
3) Transmitter antenna broken or missing.
4) Operating range too great.
5) Signal interference. Turn off transmitter. If receiver's signal
strength indicator does not drop to nearly zero, this indicates an
interfering signal may be the problem.
Try a different operating frequency.
"Loc" APPEARS IN DISPLAY WHEN ANY BUTTON IS PRESSED
1) Control Panel is locked. (See
Operating Instructions, Locking
and Unlocking the Control Panel.)
"Hold" APPEARS IN DISPLAY WHEN ARROW BUTTONS ARE PRESSED
1) Reminder that it is necessary to hold down the AUDIO or FREQ
button to make adjustments to the audio gain or frequency settings.
"PLL" APPEARS IN DISPLAY
1) Indication that the PLL is not locked. This is a serious condition
that requires factory repair. It may be possible to operate on
another frequency far removed from the one that was selected
when the condition was indicated.
TRANSMITTER WON'T RESPOND TO REMOTE CONTROL
1) If LCD blinks "rc oFF", transmitter has not been configured
to respond to the remote control. See "Remote Control Operation"
on page 7 for instructions on how to configure.
2) If LCD blinks "- - - - - -", transmitter is already set as
requested by the remote control.
3) If transmitter does not respond at all, try moving the remote
control closer to the microphone or increasing the remote control's
loudness setting, or increasing the audio level on the transmitter.
4) Make sure volume of RM and proximity of microphone are
sufficient to engage transmitter.
5) Make sure transmitter is not in Sleep mode.
RM Troubleshooting
FREQUENCY CHANGES, BUT NOT TO DESIRED FREQUENCY
1) RM set on different block than transmitter in question. RM uses
hex code to set frequency - set RM to proper frequency block, or
use hex code method to change frequency.
