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-

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.
