A little bit of Lectrosonics history... Founded in 1971, Lectrosonics began with the manufacture of portable sound systems sold under the Voice Projector© registered trademark. The first product line consisted of a self-contained lectern/sound system and two over-the-shoulder portable sound systems. In 1975 the first wireless microphone systems were introduced to audio visual markets. The first system was a lavalier system consisting of a beltpack transmitter and matching receiver.

FRONT PANEL CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS TRANSMITTER AUDIO LEVEL PILOT LED The modulation (audio level) of the incoming signal is indicated by a fast responding LED strip. The strip is calibrated in 6dB steps over an expanded scale (54dB) which provides an ex tremely accurate visual “picture” of the signal dynamics, even at a distance away from the receiver. Audio signal peaks easily exceed the response time of VU meters, however, the LED strip is fast enough to track even brief transients.
Wireless Diversity Receiver REAR PANEL CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS AUDIO OUTPUT DC IN A calibrated control on the rear panel adjusts the output level in 5 dB steps, referenced in dBu. This control knob adjusts the absolute output level at the XLR connector. The AUDIO OUT PUT level control is located after the output transformer. This allows the signal to noise ratio to remain constant regardless of the setting of the control.
ANTENNA USE AND PLACEMENT There are two remote antenna assemblies included with this receiver. Position the antennas at least three or four feet apart and so that they are not within 3 or 4 feet of large metal surfaces. If this is not possible, try to position the antennas so that they are as far away from the metal surface as is practical. It is also good to position the receiver so that there is a direct “line of sight” between the transmitter and the receiver antenna.
Wireless Diversity Receiver INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 1) If operating the unit from AC power, determine the line voltage to be used and set the Line Voltage Selector on the rear panel to match. The units are shipped with the proper size fuse for use with 120V systems (315mA). If the unit will be used in a 220V environment, change the fuse to a 160mA of the same type.
TROUBLESHOOTING POWER SUPPLY AND FUSE ANTENNAS AND RF SIGNAL STRENGTH LEDs not lit or dimly lit — When the UDR200 is powered from an external DC supply, the LEDs are dimmed to conserve battery life. RF LEVEL is weak on one (or both) channels • AC power cord disconnected. • External power supply disconnected or inadequate. • Main power supply fuse blown. • For 110 Volt operation: 315 mA, 250 Volt Buss GDC-315 or Littlefuse 218.

SERVICE AND REPAIR If your system malfunctions, you should attempt to correct or isolate the trouble before concluding that the equipment needs repair. Make sure you have followed the setup procedure and operating instructions. Check out the inter-connecting cords and then go through the TROUBLE SHOOTING section in the manual We strongly recommend that you do not try to repair the equipment yourself and do not have the local repair shop attempt anything other than the simplest repair.
