Digital Frequency Agile UHF Belt-Pack Transmitter
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1) Install a fresh battery according to the instructions above.
2) Insert the microphone plug into the input jack, aligning the pins; be sure that the connector locks in.
3) Attach the antenna to the SMA connector on the top of the transmitter.
4) Mute the sound system.
5) Turn the transmitter power switch to the “ON” position.
Note: If the security level is set to “2”, the receiver must be powered on before the transmitter.
If the security level is set to “3”, communications do not begin until a fresh key is transfered.
6) Position the microphone in the location you will use in actual operation.
7) While speaking or singing at the same voice level that will actually be used, observe the MODULATION LEDs.
Adjust the AUDIO LEVEL control knob until the LEDs begin to light. At too low a setting neither LED will light as
you speak. Gradually, turn the gain up until the –20 dB LED lights green and then the -10 dB lights green. We
strongly recommend setting the gain of the transmitter even higher so that the first red LED occasionally lights.
8) Once the gain has been adjusted, the audio system audio can be turned on to make level adjustments in the
main audio system.
OPERATING NOTES
The AUDIO LEVEL control knob should not be used to control the volume of your sound system or recorder levels.
This gain adjustment matches the transmitter gain with the user’s voice level and microphone positioning.
If the audio level is too high — both red LEDs will light frequently or stay lit. This condition may reduce the dynamic
range of the audio signal.
If the audio level is too low — neither LED will light, or only the -20 LED will light green. This condition may cause
hiss and noise in the audio.
Different voices will usually require different settings of the AUDIO LEVEL control, so check this adjustment as each
new person uses the system. If several different people will be using the transmitter and there is not time to make
the adjustment for each individual, adjust it for the loudest voice.
ADJUSTING THE TRANSMITTER FREQUENCY
If you are experiencing interference from another signal on your frequency, you
may want to change the operating frequency of your system. The left switch
changes the operating frequency by 1.6 MHz per step and the right switch
changes it 100 kHz per step. If you are experiencing interference, change the
operating frequency in 100 kHz steps to find a clear channel. If it is not possible
to find a clear channel using the 100 kHz switch, return it to its original position
and change the 1.6 MHz switch by one click then try the 100 kHz switch again.

The UDR700 receiver front panel will indicate the correct switch settings to match the receiver frequency.
