Batteries
Wearing the Bodypack Transmitter
•
•
A fresh set of alkaline batteries lasts up to 10
hours (9 hours, PGXD2).
Clip the transmitter to a belt or slide a guitar strap
through the transmitter clip as shown.
The transmitter LED and the receiver ready
LED glow red to indicate low battery (typically
less than 60 minutes remaining).
For best results, slide the transmitter until the belt is
pressed against the base of the clip.
•
•
NiMH rechargeable batteries may be used.
However, the low battery indicator functions
differently. When it turns red, there may be little
to no remaining life.
When the LED flashes red, the batteries must
be replaced to power on the transmitter.
PGXD
Adjusting Gain
For best audio quality, set transmitter gain so the audio
LED on the receiver flickers green and amber during the
performance. Decrease gain if the signal clips (LED turns
red).
Note: The amber LED may appear to be red when
viewed at an angle. For best results, monitor the LED
from directly in front.
Bodypack Transmitter
The bodypack has 26 dB of audio gain
adjustment.
Handheld Transmitter
Access the gain switch by unscrewing the head of
the microphone.
•
•
Increase gain (clockwise +) for microphones
Use the tip of a pen or a small screwdriver to move
the switch.
Decrease gain (counterclockwise –) for guitars
or high-output instruments
•
•
0dB: For quiet to normal vocal performance.
–10dB: Use only if audio is distorted due to high
vocal levels.

Single System Setup
Synchronize
Scan
Synchronize the transmitter to the receiver by aligning the
infrared (IR) ports and pressing the sync button. Make sure
the IR ports are closely aligned.
Use the scan feature on the receiver to
find a clear channel.
After a successful sync, the transmitter LED momentarily
flashes red and the receiver ready light illuminates.

NOTE: This wireless system may be affected by RF inter-
ference when used in proximity to other wireless devices
such as cordless phones, baby monitors, and two-way ra-

each use or if you experience problems.
system scans for the channel
with the least interference
Multiple System Setup
Use the following steps to ensure the best performance when installing multiple wire-
less systems at the same location.
1. Turn all receivers on and all transmitters off.
Note: Turn on any other digital equipment that could cause interference during
the performance so it will be detected during the frequency scans in the following
steps.
2. Make sure the group number is the same for all receivers (see Manual Group
Selection).
3. Perform a scan using the first receiver.
4. Turn on the first transmitter and sync it to the receiver.
5. Repeat for each system.
•
Important: After syncing each transmitter, leave it on so that scans from the other
receivers will not select that channel.
•
Be sure only one transmitter IR port is exposed when synchronizing each system.
Compatible Frequencies
When operating multiple systems simultaneously, choose one group from the following
table and set all systems to different channels within that group.

Manual Channel and Group Selection (receiver only)
Using the receiver to scan for a channel is the best way to find the best frequency for your system. However,
for multiple system setup, you may need to manually set the group number.
1. Press and hold the channel button.
2. Hold the button until the channel or group display begins flashing.
3. Release and press the button again to advance the setting.
At the desired channel or group number, wait for the flashing to stop. This activates the new setting.
4. Transfer the new frequency setting to the transmitter using the automatic sync function.
