• u, v allow up to 16 user-selected frequencies to
be stored in each group. Each press of the UP or
DOWN button will step to the next stored frequency
in the group.
Note: The Tuning Setup Screen only selects the
tuning mode (NORMAL or Group Tuning) and
not the operating frequency. Actual operating
frequencies are chosen through the Frequency
Screens.
In Group tuning modes, the UP and DOWN buttons
navigate among the Selected frequencies in the group.
When a tuning group is
Selected, a letter will appear
next to the hex switch settings.

Holding the SEL button while pressing the UP or
DOWN button will step to the next frequency in 100 kHz
steps, which will select a frequency that is not stored
in the group. In this case, the group letter in the display
will blink to indicate that the selected frequency is not
included in the group.
The letter will blink when
a frequency outside of the
tuning group is Selected.

When no frequencies are stored in groups u and v, the
UP and DOWN buttons will function the same as in
the NORMAL mode (each press moves up or down in
100kHz steps).
When only one frequency is stored in group u or v, the
UP and DOWN buttons will not change the frequency. In
this case, hold the SEL button in and then press UP or
DOWN to scroll to the desired frequency.
To add a frequency to tuning either group u or v, Select
the desired frequency as in the previous paragraph,
then hold the SEL button in, then hold the UP or DOWN
button in until the letter stops blinking.
To delete a stored frequency, select it with the UP and
DOWN buttons, then hold the SEL button in, then hold
the UP or DOWN button in until the letter starts blinking.
SHORTCUT: Hold the MENU button in while
pressing the UP or DOWN arrow to jump in
16 channel increments (1.6 MHz steps). If the
TUNING mode is set to a group, it will still step up
or down in the same 16 channel increment, which
will likely tune to a frequency that is not included in
the group (letter will blink in this case).
SmtNR
This setup screen is available only in the 400 Series
COMPAT (compatibility) mode. Select the desired mode
while listening to the audio to of one of three choices:
• OFF provides no noise reduction for complete
transparency, which is useful in controlled environ-
ments with very little high frequency noise such as
an indoor motion picture production set.
• NORMAL applies a moderate amount of noise
reduction to noticeably reduce hiss from subtle
sources such as electret microphones.
• FULL is very similar to the Lectrosonics noise
reduction system used for many years in the 195
and 200 Series analog systems. Hiss from electret
microphones and some environmental HF noise are
suppressed.
PHASE
This setup screen allows the audio output phase to be
inverted to compensate for situations such as phase
inversion caused by microphone wiring.
TXBAT
This setup screen allows you to Select the exact battery
being used in the transmitter to provide more accurate
battery level monitoring.
When the COMPAT mode is set to HYB (hybrid) or the
200 Series mode, the sel choices are:
• 9V - Transmitter uses a 9V alkaline battery.
• 9VL - Transmitter uses a 9V lithium battery (not
rechargeable).
• 9VT - Transmitter uses a 9V battery of any type.
Monitor its status with the timer in the LCD Main
Window. This is the best choice when using a re-
chargeable battery in the transmitter.
• AA - Transmitter uses a AA alkaline battery.
• AAL - Transmitter uses a AA lithium battery (not
rechargeable).
• AAT - Transmitter uses an AA battery. This is the
best choice when using a rechargeable battery in
the transmitter.
The 9VT and AAT settings are most useful for
NiMH batteries as they do not exhibit reliably
identifiable voltage drops as they discharge.
In compatibility modes other than 400 Series and 200
Series, no battery telemetry information is available, so
the TXBAT setup screen offers only two choices:
• --- (no timer) - Display no transmitter battery status
in the main window.
• TIM - Monitor the transmitter battery status with the
battery timer in the LCD Main Window.
NOTE: To reset the timer, set the TXBAT mode to
anything other than 9VT or AAT, then back to the
desired mode.
