IR Sync
Use IR Sync to form an audio channel between the transmitter and receiver.
Note: The receiver band must match the band of the transmitter.
1. Select a receiver channel.
2. Tune the channel to an available frequency using group scan or manually turn to an open frequency.
3. Power on the transmitter.
4. Press the SYNC button on the receiver.
5. Align the IR windows between the transmitter and the receiver so that the IR LED illuminates red. When com-
plete, Sync Success! appears. The transmitter and receiver are now tuned to the same frequency.
Note:
Any change to the encryption status on the receiver (enabling/disabling encryption) requires a sync to send the settings to the transmitter. New encryp-
tion keys for the transmitter and receiver channel are generated on every IR sync, so to request a new key for a transmitter, perform an IR sync with the
desired receiver channel.
Setting the Frequency Manually
The transmitter can be manually tuned to a specific group, channel, or
frequency.
1. Navigate to the Radio menu and select Freq.
2. Scroll to select G: and C: to edit the group and channel, or select
the frequency parameter (MHz). When editing the frequency, press
enter once to edit the first 3 digits, or twice to edit the last 3 digits.
3. Use the ∧∨ buttons to adjust the group, channel, or frequency.
4. Press enter to save, and then press exit when finished.

Updating Firmware
Firmware is embedded software in each component that controls function-
ality. Periodically, new versions of firmware are developed to incorporate
additional features and enhancements. To take advantage of design im-
provements, you can upload and install new versions of the firmware by
using the Shure Update Utility. The Shure Update Utility is available for
download from http://www.shure.com/.
Firmware Versioning
When performing an update, first download firmware to the receiver, and
then update transmitters to the same firmware version to ensure consis-
tent operation.
The firmware numbering for Shure devices uses the following format:
MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH (e.g., 1.2.14). At a minimum, all devices on the
network (including transmitters), must have the same MAJOR and MINOR
firmware version numbers (e.g., 1.2.x).
Updating the Transmitter
1. Download the firmware to the receiver.
2. Access the following menu from the receiver:
Device Configuration > Tx Firmware Update.
3. Align the IR ports between the transmitter and the re-
ceiver. IR ports must be aligned for the entire down-
load, which can take 50 seconds or longer.
Tip: The red alignment LED will turn on when the alignment is correct.
4. Press ENTER on the receiver to begin the download to the transmitter.
The receiver will display the progress of the update as a percentage.
