4) Guidelines and recommendations for best performance.
Compatibility
The transmitter and receiver must synchronize to work together (see Synch process on page 3).
The synch operation only needs to be performed the first time a system is used, or when a new
bodypack is used with a base previously synched to another bodypack. Do not synch multiple
times, just once until a new bodypack is used. Any PR24N can be synchronized with any
PB24N base.
Using Multiple Wireless Systems
The PW24N system has 95 possible channels that are really different frequency hopping
schemes. Each synchronized base and transmitter will automatically find a clear channel so up
to 40 systems can work together in one location depending on other interference problems.
Potential Sources of Interference
There are many potential sources of interference for your wireless system. Any electronic
product that contains digital circuitry including digital signal processors (reverb/multi-effects units),
electronic keyboards, digital lighting controllers, CD and DVD players, and computers, all emit RF
energy that can adversely affect the performance of your wireless system. It is always best to
place the receiver as far away as possible from these devices to minimize potential problems.
The PW24N operates in the 2.4MHz ISM band and other devices in that band may interfere. The
spread spectrum technique used in the PW24N is very robust and should operate even in the
presence of other 2.4MHz devices such as walkie-talkies, LANs, cordless phones, etc. in the
area.
Battery Recommendations
The Lithium-Ion battery built into the PB24N transmitter will work at full capacity for over 500
charge cycles. If you notice lower than usual battery life over time, it may be time to replace the
cell.
Warnings
