Lectrosonics SMQ - Manual (Page 7)

Super-Minature Belt Pack Transmitter
SM Screen Selections
Six screens are used to set up and operate the SM.
These screens are used to set the operating frequency,
adjust the audio modulation level, select the Compatibil­
ity Mode or lock the control panel and power down the
transmitter.
Audio Screen
The Audio screen is the default
screen at the end of the power
Aud 12
up boot sequence. It can also
be accessed by pressing the
AUDIO button during normal operation.
The Audio screen displays the current audio input level
setting.
Frequency Screen
The Frequency Screen displays
the operating frequency in MHz
or as a two-digit hexadecimal
644.400
CH 2C
number that corresponds to the
equivalent Lectrosonics Fre­
quency Switch Setting. Press­
ing the FREQ button toggles
between the two displays.
When the operating frequency is displayed in MHz, the
decimal point also acts as the PLL lock indicator. If the
decimal point is constantly blinking or missing, this
indicates that the transmitter is having RF problems.
(See
Troubleshooting, Receiver RF Indicator Off.)
Compatibility Mode Screen
Holding down the Up arrow
button while powering up the
CP 400
SM opens the Compatibility
Mode screen. By using the Up
or Down arrow buttons, the user can select one of six
compatibility modes:

Compatibility Modes. Also, the SM exits the
Compatibility Mode screen to Standby Mode. (See

Lock/Unlock Screen
Simultaneously pressing both the Up and Down arrow
buttons during normal opera­
tion starts the Lock timer. The
timer starts at three and counts
Loc 1
down to zero.
When the timer reaches zero, the transmitter’s controls
are locked.
The LCD will display the locked condition as long as the
arrow buttons are held, then
revert back to the previous
screen when either button is
unLoc1
released.
With the controls locked, the AUDIO and FREQ buttons
can still be used to display current settings. Any
attempt to change a setting by pressing either the Up or
Down arrow button will result in a reminder that the
controls are locked.
Important: Once the transmitter is locked, it
cannot be unlocked or powered off using the
buttons. The only ways to unlock a locked
transmitter are to remove the battery or unlock
it via the remote control. The remote control
will work only if the transmitter was previsouly
configured to respond to the remote control.
Lock mode does not persist when the power is
off.
