5 Operation
1) Do not switch on the transmitter of the system
yet; switch on the receiver first: Set the on /off
switch (8) to ON When the unit is switched
on, the ring around the REMOSET button (3)
lights up After briefly indicating the identifi-

(4) shows:

– the indication MUTE (f)
The muting function will be activated when
no radio signal is received from the transmit-
ter on the transmission frequency adjusted,
when the signal received is poor or when the
transmitter is muted (possible for transmitter
IN-264TH / 5 only)
2) Before switching on the transmitter, set the
receiver to a free and interference-free trans-
mission frequency
transmission frequency has been set and the
reception indication RF (a) shows a radio signal
(one or several segments of the indication are
displayed), select a different frequency
3) Switch on the transmitter, check its settings
( ☞ instruction manual of the transmitter), then
set it to the same transmission frequency via the
REMOSET function according to chapter 5 2
When the transmitter and the receiver have
been set to the same frequency, the muting
function is deactivated; the indication MUTE (f)
disappears One of the indications
is displayed to show which of the antennas (1)
receives the more powerful radio signal The
indication RF (a) shows the reception quality:
the more segments displayed, the better the
reception
If the reception is poor, please check:
– if the batteries of the transmitter are exhausted
The display shows a battery symbol (d) indi-
cating the status of the batteries in the trans-
mitter in four levels
– if the transmission power of the transmitter
is too low
To increase the transmission range when the
transmitter is placed at a greater distance
from the receiver, it is possible to increase the
transmission power from 10 mW to 50 mW

A
– if the reception is disturbed by objects in the
transmission path
Make sure to keep the transmitter and the
receiver at a minimum distance of 50 cm from
metal objects and any other sources of inter-
ference, e g electric motors or fluorescent
lamps
– if the reception is improved when you move
the antennas
– if the squelch threshold adjusted with the
SQUELCH control is too high
4) Speak / sing into the microphone of the transmit-
ter or, when picking up the sound of an instru-
ment, feed an audio signal to the microphone
The indication AF (b) shows the volume level of
the audio signal received The more segments of
the indication AF displayed, the higher the level
Set the transmitter to the optimum volume
via the indication AF
the transmitter
5) Use the volume control (2) to match the output
level of the receiver to the input of the subse-
quent unit If you use the XLR audio output and
the level is too high even when the volume is
low, attenuate the level by 20 dB with the toggle
switch OUTPUT LEVEL (10) [position MIC ]
6) Use the control SQUELCH (12) to adjust the
threshold for interference suppression The fur-
ther the control turned clockwise, the higher
the threshold
Interference suppression will mute the re-
ceiver when high-frequency interference signals
with a level below the threshold adjusted are
(c)
B
received during music intervals With a higher
threshold, however, the transmission range
will decrease as the receiver will also be muted
when the signal strength of the transmitter falls
below the threshold adjusted Therefore, adjust
a higher threshold with the control SQUELCH
when the reception is good; select a lower value
when the transmitter is placed at a greater dis-
tance from the receiver
7) The receiver is provided with a lock function to
prevent accidental change of settings or switch-

ing off
8) After operation, set the on /off switch (8) to OFF
If the receiver is not in use for a longer period of
time, disconnect the power supply unit from the
mains socket; even when the receiver is switched
off, the power supply unit will have a low power
consumption
