Battery Compartment - Insert two standard AA (LR6) batteries here, being sure to observe the plus and minus polarity markings shown.
Squelch Control The Squelch circuit mutes the audio output of the receiver when the radio signal is below the squelch setting. Setting the squelch control to the lowest setting will provide the greatest range, but when the transmitter signal is lost, the receiver may pass background noise. As the setting is increased, the range may be reduced, but it will reduce the likelihood of passing noise through the audio system.
Quick Start Guide Follow these basic procedures for setting up and using your Stage 200 Wireless System. 1. Connect the SR200 receiver power adaptor to the rear panel DC input, and then to an electrical outlet. Fully extend the antennas vertically. 2. Connect the receiver’s appropriate ¼” outputs to the input of a mixer, stereo, karaoke machine, or any other line level input. 3. With the transmitter powered off, rotate the bottom section and slide down to expose the battery compartment.
Quick Start Guide 5. Turn on the connected amplifier and/or mixer, but keep its volume all the way down. Next, make sure that your transmitter is un-muted and set the Volume Control knob on the SR200 fully clockwise; this is unity gain. Speak or sing into the mic at a normal performance level while slowly raising the volume of your amplifier/mixer until the desired level is reached. 6.
