System Operation 2W-1KU Receiver Buttons Function The Power Button (6) is used to turn both receivers ON or OFF at the same time. When this power button is pressed, the blue backlights on the LCD Displays (7) will light up indicating the receivers are on. Press the Power button again to turn off the receivers. The LCD will display “OFF” then the backlight will turn off indicating the receivers are off. At power-off the 2W-1KU receivers will store the last settings entered and re-display them at power-on.
from the Volume menu and advance to exit Setup Mode by pressing the Set button one more time. Choose the 2W-1KU operating frequency by selecting one of ten Groups (9) and one of 100 Channels (10) that are determined to be desirable open channels. Press the Set button to enter the Group setup mode and the Group icon will flash, then press the Up/Down button once for single stepping through the groups, or hold continuously for faster group selection.
Adjusting the Squelch Connecting the Audio Outputs In normal operation, each 2W-1KU receiver’s Mute Control (16) works independently and should be adjusted clockwise (CW) to the minimum RF squelch setting at which the RF Level Meter (12) and one of the Diversity Indicators (8/13) will remain on while your transmitter is in normal use, up to the maximum operating range anticipated in use for your application.
HT‑1KU Handheld Microphone Transmitter Buttons Function The RF Power Level Switch (33) is used to select Hi/Low power transmission. Each time the Set Button (32) is pressed, the LCD menu will cycle in the following order: MAIN MENU > VOLUME > GROUP > CHANNEL > MAIN MENU (repeats) The (Up) or (Down) Buttons (31) work in the set mode only. They can be used to change any Group/Channel as selected (if not using IR Sync from receiver). They can also be used to select the desired Input audio level VOL setting.
IR Sync Programming: Use the wireless IR LED Receptor Sensor (36) to download pre-programmed channels from the receiver. Start programming by holding the IR LED Receptor about 6-12” from the receiver’s IR LED Window (1), then press the IR Sync Button (2) on the receiver to be used. When short pressing the ASC IR Sync Button (2), while the main menu is displayed, the IR LED will light up red and stay for about three seconds.
setting increases battery life and also optimizes the number of channels that can be used simultaneously in a given location. Use this setting for normal use not requiring maximum operating range. A range walk test before use will determine which setting is best for your application. Slide the On/Off switch to the “ON” position and the microphone is now ready to use.
should be replaced as soon as possible. To preserve battery life, turn the transmitter off when not in use. To turn the transmitter off, slide the Off/Mute/On switch to “MUTE” and then “OFF”. The LCD will display “OFF”, no LCD or backlight is lit up and the unit will be off. At Power Off the transmitter will store the last settings entered and re-display them at the next power on where it can be reprogrammed to any new Group/Channel or Volume level at the first time of use or anytime later.
For normal operation, the transmitter should have the same Group/Channel as displayed on the receiver. The default factory setting is Group 00 (Transmitter 1), 03 (Transmitter 2), 06 (Transmitter 3) and 09 (Transmitter 4), and Channel 00 for all transmitters. After programming is finished, close the battery compartment door, ensuring that it latches. The BT-1KU is now ready for use. be on, indicating a received signal from the transmitter.

Cautions and Troubleshooting Feedback Avoid acoustic feedback (howling or screeching) by taking care in selecting PA volume, transmitter location and speaker placement. Please also note the pickup pattern characteristics of the microphone selected. Unidirectional mics are more resistant to feedback. However, they pick up sound sources best that are directly in front of the mic.
Miscellaneous Tips • For optimal operation with external antennas, low loss RF shielded cable should be used and the length of the cable should not exceed 10 ft. (3 m). • The receiver antennas should be kept away from any metal surfaces whenever possible as they can reflect away or shield the incoming RF signal. • If the receiver’s volume control is set too high, it may overdrive the input of the attached audio mixer, causing distortion.
