Infra-red disable
You can protect the HX2040 from an accidental change
of settings, such as in a live performance, by disabling
the infra-red port on the transmitter. This will prevent
all communication to the transmitter until the battery is
disconnected and reconnected.

Note: Once the infra-red port has been disabled, any

Fitting the microphone
capsule
The HX2040 transmitter uses high quality interchangeable
condensor capsules from the Schoeps™ Colette range. The
HX2040 is compatible with the full range of capsules and
accessories in this range.
The capsule mounting has a unique gel-based suspension to
minimise handling noise.
To fit a capsule
•
Unscrew the metal windscreen from the top of the
transmitter.
•
Screw the capsule into place taking care not to cross-
thread the capsule or over-tighten it.
•
Replace the windscreen.
Holding the HX2040
The HX2040 should be held above the illuminated On/
Overload indicator ring. This will enable maximum power
to be radiated from the integral antenna in the battery
compartment. Holding the HX2040 over the battery
compartment will impair the range of the transmitter and
should be avoided.
The frequency, gain, and LF status setting will be retained
even if the battery is removed from the transmitter.
An external foam windshield is available from Audio
Limited.
