User manual AKG WMS 40 PRO FLEXX

[. . . ] This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Parts 74 and 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. [. . . ] Receivers tuned to the same frequency band are marked with the same color. You can remove the color code clip on the HT 40 FLEXX and replace it with the supplied semitransparent clip. 21 Carrier frequency label: The label above the battery compartment indicates the name of the carrier frequency band and the three carrier frequencies of your transmitter. You can use the PT 40 FLEXX bodypack transmitter with both dynamic microphones and condenser microphones designed for a supply voltage of approx. Operating in the 660 MHz to 865 MHz UHF range, the PT 40 FLEXX provides three selectable, quartz stabilized carrier frequencies within the 3-MHz-wide frequency band for which you ordered your WMS 40 FLEXX. 22 On/off switch: This slide switch provides three positions: ON: Power to the transmitter is on. MUTE: The signal delivered by the microphone element is muted while power and the RF carrier frequency remain on. LED lit red: From the moment the LED changes to red, the battery capacity will provide a maximum of two operating hours. We recommend replacing the battery with a new one as soon as possible. If you use a rechargeable battery, the LED will change to red 15 minutes before the battery will be dead!24 Audio input: 3-pin mini XLR connector with both mic and line level pins that automatically match the connector pinout of the recommended AKG microphones or MKG L guitar cable. 25 Frequency selector: This slide switch tunes the transmitter to one of three different carrier frequencies within the transmitter's carrier frequency band. 28b Viewing window: The viewing window lets you check if there is a dry or rechargeable battery inside the battery compartment. You can also place a white lettering strip (supplied) or a color code strip (optional) behind the viewing window. 29 GAIN: This rotary control inside the battery compartment allows you to match the bodypack transmitter input gain to the microphone or instrument you connected to the transmitter. 30 Carrier frequency label: The label on the transmitter rear panel indicates the name of the carrier frequency band and the three carrier frequencies of your transmitter. The PT 40 FLEXX has been designed specifically for use with the following AKG microphones: CK 55 L C 417 L C 520 L C 555 L C 516 ML C 518 ML C 519 ML The MKG L guitar cable from AKG lets you connect an electric guitar, electric bass, or remote keyboard to the bodypack transmitter. Before setting up your WMS 40 FLEXX, make sure to set the frequency selectors on the transmitter and receiver to the same frequency (1, 2, or 3). If the transmitter and receiver are tuned to different frequencies, no signal will be received! Never use the two audio outputs (BALANCED and UNBALANCED) simultaneously!You can either use the receiver freestanding or mount it in a 19" rack using the optional RMU 40 PRO rack mounting kit. Make sure, though, that the transmitter will never get any closer to the receiver than 10 ft. [. . . ] If you use monitor speakers, be sure never to point any microphone directly at the monitors, or at the FOH speakers. Feedback may also be triggered by resonances depending on the acoustics of the room or hall. With resonances at low frequencies, proximity effect may cause feedback. In this case, it is often enough to move away from the microphone a little to stop the feedback. [. . . ]
