Williams Sound TGS SYS A - Manual (Page 3)

Introduction:
The FM Tour Guide System is a portable, high-performance, wireless system composed of the PPA
T16 Transmitter and PPA R7 Receivers and designed for use in hearing assistance applications. The
system allows one-way transmission of a tour guide’s voice to hearing impaired group members by
using an FM radio signal. Using the system helps to overcome background noise and distance from
the person speaking. The Tour Guide System can be used for large or small tour groups, in noisy or
quiet environments. Under FCC regulations, the Williams Sound FM Tour Guide System may only be
used for hearing assistance.
The T16 Transmitter:
The T16 Transmitter is a battery-powered belt pack that is used with a microphone to pick up the
tour guide's voice. The Transmitter produces an FM radio signal to broadcast the tour guide's voice
to the receiver units. A simple slide switch on top of the transmitter turns the unit on or off. The T16
operates on a 9 Volt alkaline disposable battery or a 9V NiMH rechargeable battery.
