Even though the system may have some charge when first taken out of the box, we recommend fully charging your XP106 before first using the system. · To charge the battery: • Set the power switch to the "OFF" position.
Speaker Placement The XP106 provides three different placement options for your specific situation. For maximum sound coverage the XP106 can be used with a standard 13/s" speaker stand. The speaker should be raised above the heads of the listening audience. Take care when placing the speaker on a stand, to ensure that it is on a level, steady surface and will not tip over. Take care when placing the XP106 in direct sunlight for long periods of time, as this may discolor or damage the unit.
Avoiding Feedback Feedback is the annoying howling and squealing that can heard when the microphone picks up sound from the speaker. The sound is then re-amplified back through the speaker again, creating a feedback loop. Follow these steps to minimize the likelihood of feedback: • Avoid pointing the microphone directly at the speaker. In general it is recommended that the microphone be positioned behind the speaker enclosure.
Quick Start • Stage XPD1 Wireless System On the wireless handheld transmitter, unscrew the bottom section of the microphone by turning it counterclockwise and then slide it off. Place a fresh set of AA (LR6) batteries in the transmitter battery holder, Plug the RXDl USB receiver into the taking care to observe the polarity USB jack labeled 2.4GHz WIRELESS. markings, then replace the cover. :; .
