Nady Systems AMERICAN STARPOWER X2 - Manual (Page 2)

OPERATION
H A N D H E L D M I C T R A N S M I T T E R
1. Unscrew the BATTERY COMPARTMENT COVER (6) and remove. Insert a fresh alkaline 9V BATTERY (9), observing correct polarity as
marked, and screw the cover back on to the microphone. To ensure proper battery contact, the cover must be screwed on completely
2. Turn on the handheld mic by sliding the OFF/STANDBY/ON (10) switch to the ON position. The BATTERY INDICATOR LED (11) will
light up continuously, indicating usable battery strength. In the case of a dead or low battery, the LED will either light dim or not light at all,
indicating that the battery should be replaced with a fresh one
3. The microphone is now ready to use. The corresponding LED INDICATORS (7) on the American Starpower™ X2 receiver should now be lit,
indicating a received signal from the transmitter on that channel.
4. The two channels are labeled red and blue, both on the front panel of the receiver and on the band label on the microphone just under the mic
ball grill. This color coding enables visual display of which transmitter is turned on and transmitting to the receiver. Both channels can be used
simultaneously and this is the preferred method of operation. Single channel operation is also possible. Occasionally, depending on the radio
signal environment in which you are using the system, you might encounter static-type noises during single channel operation caused by received
radio interference on the open, unused channel which is also mixed into the audio output you are amplifying. If this happens turn on the second
microphone transmitter, and if not using, leave nearby (~5—10 feet away) with the OFF/STANDBY/ON (10) switch in the STANDBY position,
which means the transmitter is operating but the audio input is muted. The second channel’s LED (7) should now also be lit. This should eliminate
the interference static.
[Note: Observe care in selecting amplified volume, transmitter location and speaker placement so that acoustic feedback (howling or screeching)
will be avoided.]
