Quick Start
In order for your wireless system to work correctly, both the receiver and transmitter must be set
to the same channel. Follow this basic procedure for setting up your AirLine 99 wireless system:
1.
Physically place the AR99m receiver where it will be used, and extend the antennas
vertically. The general rule of thumb is to maintain "line of sight" between the receiver and
transmitter so that the person using or wearing the transmitter can see the receiver.
2.
Ensure that the AH9 transmitter is fully charged (see section Charging the AH9 Transmitter).
3.
With the AR99m powered off, connect the included power adapter.
4.
With your amplifier or mixer off and
volume control all the way down, connect
the AR99m receiver output jack to the
mic or line level input of a mixer or
amplifier using the balanced XLR output
or unbalanced 1/4" or 1/8" line level
outputs. Turn the VOLUME knob on the
AR99m clockwise to turn its power on,
but keep the level low.
5.
Press the SET button for more than 2
seconds (the display will start to flash
quickly) on the front of the AR99m
receiver to scan for an available channel.
Once the optimal channel is selected
the receiver will enter IR Set mode. The
display will flash slowly in IR Set mode.
If you want to set a transmitter to the
receiver's currently selected channel,
press and hold the SET button for
more than 10 seconds (until the display
flashes slowly) to enter IR Set mode
directly. (figure 1).
6.
Turn on the power to the AH9 transmitter
by pressing and holding the Power button
for 3 seconds; the indicator LED will light
yellow when the button is pressed and
turns green when released and the AH9
is powered on.
7.
Position the AH9 transmitter about
3–12" (8–30 cm) from the front of the
AR99m with the transmitter's IR window
facing the IR transmitter on the front
panel of the AR99m receiver (figure 2).
8.
When the transmission of the operating channel is complete, the AR99m will receive RF
signal and the READY indicator will light indicating that it is receiving wireless signal from the
transmitter. Note: The AH9 will only accept infrared transmission from the receiver for the
first 10 seconds after the AH9 is powered on. If you need to change the operating channel,
the AH9 must be first powered off, then powered on again to receive the new channel.
9.
Turn on your connected amplifier or mixer, but keep the volume all the way down. Set
the Volume knob on the AR99m fully clockwise. This is unity gain. Speak or sing into the
microphone at normal performance level. Slowly raise the volume of your amplifier or mixer
until the desired level is reached.
10. When using multiple systems, each system must be set to a different operating channel.
Follow these steps to set each receiver and transmitter to the optimal channel.
