Features single model offers cost efficiency and operational convenience, because it allows one transmitter to be operated in many different areas. The DWT-P01 is a digital wireless transmitter for a UHF synthesized wireless microphone system to be used for broadcast or movie production purpose. This transmitter is suitable for Electronic News Gathering (ENG).
Parts Identification To connect a microphone or a cable Microphone or a cable (optional) Front Bottom Turn the connector ring clockwise (1) and insert the microphone or cable connector into the audio input connector until it is fully engaged (2). Then turn the connector ring counterclockwise to secure the latch (3). b AF (audio input level) /PEAK indicator Lights up green when the signal input is stronger than the reference level.
e Display section A RF (radio frequency) transmission indication Indicates the current transmission status. : Currently transmitting —: Transmission stopped B RF transmission power indication Indicates the current transmission power setting. You can change the setting with the RF POWER function. H: Transmitting at 50 mW M: Transmitting at 10 mW L: Transmitting at 1 mW C Audio input level meter Indicates the input signal level of the audio input connector.
