Tips
to
Improve
Wireless
System
Performance
If you encounter interference
or
dropouts, try the following suggestions:
• Choose a different receiver channel
• Reposition the receiver so there is nothing obstructing a line
of
sight to the transmitter (including the audience)
• Avoid placing transmitter and receiver where metal
or
other dense materials may be present
• Move the receiver to the top of the equipment rack
• Remove nearby sources of wireless interference, such as cell phones, two-way radios, computers, media players, Wi-Fi devices, and digital signal
processors
• Charge
or
replace the transmitter battery
• Keep transmitters more than two meters (6 feet) apart
• Keep the transmitter and receiver more than 5 meters (16 feet) apart
• During sound check, mark trouble spots and ask presenters or performers to avoid those areas
Getting
Good
Sound
Correct Microphone Placement
• Hold the microphone within 12 inches from the sound source. For a
warmer sound with increased bass presence, move the microphone
closer.
• Do not cover grille with hand.
Wearing the Headworn Microphone
• Position the headworn microphone 13 mm
(1
/2 in.) from the corner
of
your mouth.
• Position lavalier and headworn microphones so that clothing, jewelry,
or
other items
do
not
bump
or
rub against the microphone.
Adjusting
Gain
Monitor the audio meter on the receiver display when setting the transmitter gain.
The
OL
indicator should only illuminate infrequently when you speak
loudly
or
play your instrument loudly.
BLX1
Rotate the audio gain adjustment
to
increase(+)
or
decrease(-)
the
gain until desired level is reached.
For instruments, turn gain to
minimum setting. For lavaliers,
increase the gain as desired.
BLX2
The
BLX2 features two gain level
settings:
•
Default
• -10 dB
Use the default setting for most
situations.
If
the receiver audio
OL
indicator displays often, set the
microphone to -10 dB.
1. To change the gain to -10 dB, hold
down the channel button until
a small dot appears in the lower
right hand corner of the transmitter
display.
2.
To
change the gain back to
default, hold the channel button
until the
