COMPATIBILITY

The receiver and transmitter must be tuned to the

same VHF frequency to operate together. Be-

cause of the specialized equipment required to

adjust these units properly, users cannot change

frequencies.
If two or more R100 and/or other VHF/UHF wire-

less systems are being used in the same location,

proper frequency coordination is required to avoid

interference. Frequency mixing and spacing must

be factored along with local TV stations to deter-

mine if conflicts will result from a specific group.

Contact your dealer or Electro-Voice for fre-

quency-selection assistance if you are planning to

add more wireless systems to be operated simul-

taneously in the same location.
POTENTIAL SOURCES OF INTERFERENCE
There are many potential sources of interference

for your wireless system. Any electronic compo-

nent that contains digital circuitry including digital

signal processors (reverb/multi-effects units),

electronic keyboards, digital lighting controllers,

CD players and computers all emit rf energy that

can affect the performance of your wireless sys-

tem. It is always best to place your receiver as far

away from these devices as possible to minimize

the potential for of problems.
BATTERY RECOMMENDATIONS
Fresh 9-volt alkaline batteries from a quality

manufacturer will yield the best performance from

R100 transmitters. 8.4-volt ni-cad batteries can be

used but will yield much shorter operational time.

When the transmitter switch is turned on, the bat-

tery light will flash one time if the battery is good.

If the light does not flash or stays lit continuously,

the battery is weak or nearly dead. If the light

comes on during use, the battery is weakening

and should be replaced as soon as possible.
