LT-800 Troubleshooting (cont.)

Troubleshooting

There is not sufficient range

First make sure that the receivers you are using are operating properly, then make sure that

you have an antenna connected either to the top of the LT-800 transmitter or connected to

the back of the unit (but not both!). The antenna should be as high as possible and free of

obstacles. In addition make sure you are using the correct antenna type for your unit. You

might want to use a remote antenna (provided by Listen) that can be mounted on a mast

or wall. Try using different frequencies to find one with less interference.

There is interference in my transmission

Ensure that the transmitter and receivers are on the same channel. Verify that there are no

other transmitters on the same channel or a close channel to the one exhibiting interference.

Try different channels until you find a clear channel.

End users are adjusting the unit

First, lock the channel by pressing and holding the channel select UP button for 3 seconds.

Consider removing the Input, Mix Level and Contour knobs. You can order a rack mount kit

from Listen which offers a security cover that will limit access to the unit.

Several transmitters are operating in the same environment

For this, you’ll need to choose your transmitting frequencies carefully. See page 13-15 for

more details.

Can I have two antennas connected to my transmitter

No. The LT-800 transmitter can use only one antenna connection at a time. You may connect

either a top mount antenna through the top antenna port, or a remote antenna connected to

the BNC connection on the rear of the unit. If multiple antennae are simultaneously connected

to both ports the transmitter will have extremely poor broadcast performance and range.
