Scan and SyncUse this procedure to tune a receiver and transmitter to the best open channel.Important! Before you begin: Turn off all transmitters for the systems you are setting up. (This prevents them from interfering with the frequency scan.)Turn on the following potential sources of interference so they are operating as they would be during the presentation or performance (the scan will de-tect and avoid any interference they generate).• Other wireless systems or devices• Computers• CD players• Large LED panels• Effects processors1. Press the channel number button to select a receiver channel.2. Power on the transmitter.3. Press the sync button on the receiver.4. Align the IR windows until the receiver IR port illuminates red.Note: When complete, SyncSuccess! appears. The transmitter and receiver are now tuned to the same frequency.Linking Two Transmitters to a ReceiverLinking two transmitters to a receiver offers the flexibility to provide a performer with either a handheld or bodypack transmitter to meet their preference. For performances requiring instrument changes, two bodypack transmitters can be linked to a single receiver.Note: Only turn on and operate one transmitter at a time to prevent interference between the transmitters.Syncing the Transmitters to the ReceiverBoth transmitters must be individually linked to the receiver by performing an IR Sync. 1. Turn on the first transmitter and perform an IR Sync with the receiver. 2. Perform a sound check and adjust the transmitter gain if necessary. When finished, turn off the transmitter.3. Turn on the second transmitter and perform an IR Sync with the receiver.4. Test the transmitter at performance conditions and adjust the transmitter gain if necessary. When finished, turn off the transmitter.Matching Audio Levels with Mic OffsetWhen linking two transmitters to a receiver, there may be a difference in volume levels between microphones or instruments. If this occurs, use the MicOfs function to match the audio levels and eliminate audible volume differences between transmitters. If using a single transmitter, set MicOfs to 0 dB.1. Turn on the first transmitter and perform a sound check to test the audio level. Turn off the transmitter when finished.2. Turn on the second transmitter and perform a sound check to test the audio level.3. If there is an audible difference in the sound level between the transmitters, navigate to the MicOfs menu on the transmitter to increase or decrease the Mic Offset in realtime to match the audio levels.Tx OverloadThe Tx Overload message is displayed when the audio input of the transmitter experiences an overload.RF MuteRF Mute prevents transmission of the audio by suppressing the RF sig-nal, while allowing the transmitter to remain powered-on. The message RF Mute is shown on the home screen.RADIORF Output: Mute1. From the Radio menu, navigate to RF Output.2. Choose one of the following options: - On: RF signal is active - Mute: RF signal is disabled3. Press enter to save.Turning the transmitter off and on, or replacing the battery will restore RF Output to On.Power-on RF MutePower-on RF Mute places the transmitter in RF Mute mode immediately when turned on.• Starting with the transmitter off, press and hold the exit button, and then switch on the power• Continue to hold the exit button until the RF Muted message appears on the home screenDRAFT 9.1.16
Updating FirmwareFirmware is embedded software in each component that controls functionality. Periodically, new versions of firmware are developed to incorporate additional features and enhancements. To take advantage of design improvements, new versions of the firmware can be uploaded and installed using the Firmware Update Manager tool available in Shure's Wireless Workbench® 6 (WWB6) software. Software is available for download from http://www.shure.com/wwb.Firmware VersioningWhen updating receiver firmware, update transmitters to the same firmware version to ensure consistent operation.The firmware of all ULX-D devices has the form of MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH (e.g., 1.2.14). At a minimum, all devices on the network (including transmit-ters), must have the same MAJOR and MINOR firmware version numbers (e.g., 1.2.x).Updating the Transmitter1. To upload the firmware to the transmitter, go to Device Conguration > Tx Firmware Update on the receiver.2. Place the transmitter on its side and align the IR ports.3. Press ENTER on the receiver to begin the download to the transmitter. IR ports must be aligned for the entire download, which can take 50 seconds or longer.SpecificationsAD1 Bodypack TransmitterRF Carrier Frequency Range470–814 MHzNote: varies by regionWorking RangeUnder typical conditions 150 m (500 ft)Line of Sight, outdoors for a single system500 m (1600 ft)Note: Actual range depends on RF signal absorption, reflection and interference.Audio Frequency Response40 Hz – 18 kHz (+1, -3 dB)Note: Dependent on microphone typeRF Tuning Step Size25 kHzModulation45 kHz max. deviationFM, Audio Reference Companding with pre- and de-emphasisSignal-to-Noise RatioA-weighted, 1% THD, referenced at 0 dB setting on transmitter>113 dBTotal Harmonic Distortion45 kHz max. deviation<0.3%, A-weighted, typicalSystem Audio PolarityPositive pressure on microphone diaphragm (or positive voltage applied to tip of WA302 phone plug) produces positive voltage on pin 2 (with respect to pin 3 of low-impedance output) and the tip of the high impedance 1/4-inch output.Gain Adjustment Range-10 to +40 dB (in 1 dB steps)Battery TypeShure AXT910 (Rechargeable Li-Ion)Battery LifeUp to 8 hours (low power mode)Dimensions77 mm x 66 mm x 17 mm (3.0 in. x 2.6 in. x 0.7 in.)
