System 10 Stompbox Installation and Operation

System Operation
Turn down the mixer/amplifier level before starting up the wireless
system. Do not switch on the transmitter yet.
Receiver on...
Plug the power supply into an AC power source. The blue System ID
number on the front panel will illuminate.
Transmitter on...
When the transmitter is switched on, the receiver's green pair indicator
will light, and two indicators light on the transmitter: the transmitter
Power / Battery / Mute status indicator will glow green; and the
transmitter blue System ID display will illuminate. The blue System
ID display on the transmitter turns off after 30 seconds to conserve
battery power; the transmitter Power / Battery / Mute status indicator
will remain illuminated, indicating transmitter status.
To re-illuminate System ID display, press the Power / Mute switch.
Note: this will alter the transmitter mute status. A slight touch of the
power switch toggles between muted and unmuted operation.
The transmitter’s Power / Battery / Mute status indicator glows red
when transmitter is muted, or green to indicated unmuted status. In a
low-battery situation, the Power / Battery / Mute status indicator begins
to blink.
The transmitters have a soft-touch power switch. When the switch is
set to “Mute” (red indicator LED), the transmitter produces RF with
no audio signal. When the switch is “On” (green indicator LED) the
transmitter produces both RF and audio. Excessive audio input to the
transmitter will cause the receiver’s red AF Peak indicator to light.
Input Level Adjustment
The transmitter’s input trimmer control is factory-set for use with
guitar. However, you can adjust the input level if need be. To do so,
slide the battery cover off the transmitter and remove the screwdriver
from its clip. Using the screwdriver, gently turn the “LEVEL” all the
way up (clockwise, toward “H”). Check for excessive gain by playing
instrument at typically loud levels while watching the receiver’s Peak
Indicator. If the Peak Indicator does light, turn the “LEVEL” control
slightly counterclockwise until the Peak Indicator no longer lights with
maximum audio input to the transmitter.
CAUTION! The small trimmer control is delicate; use only the supplied
screwdriver. Do not force the trimmer beyond its normal 190° range
of rotation.
Return the screwdriver to its storage clip when not in use.
Setting System ID Number & Pairing your Transmitter and Receiver
Your system has been preconfigured at the factory to operate with no
other pairing setup required; it will work out of the box. That is, your
receiver and transmitter are already a digital pair, and they have been
assigned the same System ID number.
The pairing instructions outlined below will help you change system
ID numbers and pair additional transmitters to the receiver. Note:
ATW-T1001EX UniPak transmitters from earlier System 10 models
may not be compatible with the multi-transmitter pairing and battery
level indicator functions of the System 10 Stompbox receiver.
However, these older transmitter models may be shipped to the
Audio-Technica Service Department for firmware updates.
Note: System ID is an identical number assigned to a paired
receiver and transmitter for identification purposes. The System ID
number is not related to transmitting frequency. Due to the dynamic
nature of System 10 automatic frequency selection, the actual
transmitting frequencies may change during power-up or performance.
These frequency changes are seamless and imperceptible to the ear.
Pairing Receiver with Transmitters
Note: Up to eight transmitters may be paired with the receiver.
1. Turn the receiver and first transmitter on.
2. Press the System ID button on the receiver to choose an ID number
from 1 to 8. The receiver’s display will show your new ID and begin
to blink.
3. Within 15 seconds, press and hold the Pair button on the receiver
for about one second. The Pair light will begin to blink green. The
receiver is now in Pair Mode.
Note: If the receiver Pair button is not pressed within 15 seconds,
the system ID number will revert to its previous setting.
4. Open the transmitter and press and hold its Pair button within 30
seconds of entering Pair Mode. The transmitter display will now
show the System ID number you have chosen on the receiver.
The receiver’s Pair light will glow steady, indicating you have
successfully paired your system.
5. To pair an additional transmitter, you must switch off first
transmitter by pressing and holding its Power/Mute button. Turn the
second transmitter on and follow instructions 2-4 above, making
sure to assign a different System ID number to the new transmitter.
6. Repeat for each additional transmitter. Remember to switch off all
transmitters already paired before adding a new one and to use a
unique ID number for each transmitter.
Note: With all transmitters turned off, the receiver’s System ID
Display will cycle through all currently paired ID numbers. Turn on
a transmitter to activate its pairing with the receiver. The receiver
recognizes only one transmitter at a time. That transmitter must
be turned off before the receiver will recognize another paired
transmitter. *If that transmitter is turned off out of range, the
receiver will not recognize another paired transmitter until the
receiver is reset by disconnecting the power supply.
Clearing Individual ID Pairings
1. Press the receiver’s System ID button to select the ID number you
wish to clear. The number will begin to blink.
2. Press and hold the Pair and then ID button for about three seconds,
until the display shows a blinking “o.” This indicates that your
selected ID number has been cleared.
3. Release the Pair and ID buttons and, after a few seconds, the
display will stop blinking and return to normal operation.
4. Repeat to clear additional ID pairings.
Clearing All ID Pairings
1. Press and hold the receiver’s Pair and then ID button for about three
seconds, until the display shows a blinking “o.”
2. Release the Pair and ID buttons. Then, within three seconds, press
and hold the Pair and ID buttons again, until the display shows a
blinking “A.” This indicates that all your paired ID numbers have
been cleared.
3. After blinking three seconds, the “A” will change to “-” to indicate
that there are no paired transmitters.
