Infrared emitter: Transmits frequency data from the receiver to the handheld or body-
pack transmitter. It also transmits the audio gain setting selected on the receiver to the
handheld transmitter.
The infrared emitter has a very narrow radiation angle (approx. 10°) and a maximum
range of 8 inches (20 cm) to make sure only one transmitter will be tuned to the same
frequency.
