Shure UA870 Instrucciones De Instalación

MODEL UA870 UHF ACTIVE DIRECTIONAL ANTENNA
The Shure UA870 is an active UHF wireless directional antenna. It featUR4es a log
periodic dipole array. When compared to an omnidirectional 1/2-wave antenna, the
cardioid pattern provided by the UA870 offers enhanced reception of the desired
coverage area and greater rejection of RF signals outside the coverage area.
To compensate for coaxial cable signal loss, the UA870 has an on-board amplifi er
that offers user selectable 3 or 10 dB gain. The gain setting is indicated by two
LEDs. Remote 12 Vdc power for the antenna amplifi er is provided by a Shure UR4 or
ULX Receiver or a Shure UA845 or UA844 Antenna Distribution System through the
connecting coaxial cable.
The UA870 can be mounted on a microphone stand, suspended from the ceiling,
or mounted to a wall using the integrated swivel adapter bracket. The UA870 is
weather resistant for use outdoors. For best diversity performance, use two UA870
antennas.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Determine the length of cable required to connect the UA870 Antenna to the
UR4 or ULX Receiver or UA845 or UA844 Antenna Distribution System.
Always use low-loss 50 ohm cable, such as RG-8X or equivalent. Shure UA825
7.6 m (25 ft.) or UA850 15.2 m (50 ft.) or UA8100 30.4 m (100 ft) cables are
2. Set the gain switch to the appropriate setting. If you are using coaxial cables up
to 7.6 m (25 ft.) long, select the 3 dB position. If using cables 7.6 m (25 ft.)
or longer, select the 10 dB position. To access the gain switch, remove the cover
of the preamplifi er box (printed side) by unscrewing the foR UR4 screws at each
corner. Gain settings are marked on the pc board inside.
NOTE: The UA870 gain control is factory preset at the 10 dB position.
3. Connect one end of the antenna cable to the UA870. Then mount the antenna so
that it points toward the intended coverage area. See Figure 1.
4. Connect the other end of the antenna cable to the UR4 or ULX Receiver or
UA845 or UA844 Antenna Distribution System. The gain LED on the UA870
illuminates to verify that power is being provided to the antenna.
Always perform a "walk around" test to verify coverage before using a wireless
system dUR4ing a speech or performance. Experiment with antenna placement to
fi nd the optimum location for the UA870.
