1..Rack.Mounting.the.Receiver

There are 2 options available (as accessories) for rack mounting the UDR16 receiver:

single or side-by-side with another UDR16 receiver.

a. Single mounting: Remove the receiver SIDE.MOUNT.CLIPS.(1) from each side

of the receiver (as shown) and slide in the optional wider RACK.EARS.(2).

b. Side-by-side double mounting: After removing the SIDE.MOUNT.CLIPS.(1)

from both UDR16 receivers, join the two receivers with the JOINING.CLIP.

(3)

and attach the narrow RACK.EARS.(4) as shown. (Note: Do not mount

the receiver in a rack directly above an amplifier or other source of high

heat — this could degrade the performance of the UDR16. Always ensure

adequate airflow and heat dissipation in any rack configuration.)

2..Powering.the.Receiver

Plug the 19V.AC/DC.ADAPTER.(5) provided into the DC.INPUT.JACK.(9) on the

back of the receiver. Then plug the power supply into an AC outlet. Press the POWER.

......SWITCH.(13)

once to turn on the receiver. The POWER.“ON”.LED.(12) will now light

and the receiver is operational.

3..Antennas

The UDR16 receiver is equipped with attached dual FOLDING.ANTENNAS.(16).

Optimal positions of the antennas are 45° from the receiver (or 90° from

each other). For maximum range, it is always best to maintain a line-of-sight

(no obstructions) between the receiver antennas and the transmitter at

all times whenever possible.

4..Mute.(Squelch).Adjustment

In normal operation, the SQUELCH.CONTROL.(6).should be set fully clockwise

to the factory preset RF level (Max. Sens.). However, in areas of high RF activity,

the squelch (or mute) may need to be adjusted to compensate for the adverse

conditions in a particular location. If, with the transmitter off, the receiver’s A

or B DIVERSITY.LED.INDICATORS.(14) flicker or stay on, the squelch control should

be turned counterclockwise until the A or B LEDs go out. When the squelch is

properly adjusted, the A or B LEDs will only light when the system transmitter

is turned ON. Turning the squelch control too far counterclockwise will reduce the

range, but yield a quieter squelch (mute) function. During operation, especially

at ranges greater than 75 feet, one or the other of the A or B LEDs may go out

briefly. This is normal. The unit’s DigiTRU Diversity

TM

reception ensures that the

received audio will not be interrupted. When both LEDs are not lit, the transmitter

is out of range for that given location, and the user should move closer to the

receiver to re-establish the radio link. (Note: It would be preferable to select

a different channel with less RF activity before resorting to the MUTE (squelch)

adjustment.)
