3000 Series Professional UHF Wireless Systems ATW-3110a UniPak Transmitter System ATW-3141a Handheld Dynamic Microphone System Installation and Operation Professional UHF Wireless Systems Installation and Operation This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference. This device complies with INDUSTRY CANADA R.S.S. 210, en conformit avec IC: RSS-210/CNR210. Operation is subject to the following conditions: 1) This device may not cause harmful interference and 2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference which may cause undesired operation. CAUTION! Electrical shock can result from removal of the receiver cover. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel. No user-serviceable parts inside. Do not expose to rain or moisture. The circuits inside the receiver and transmitter have been precisely adjusted for optimum performance and compli-
ance with federal regulations. Do not attempt to open the receiver or transmitter. To do so will void the warranty, and may cause improper operation. Notice to individuals with implanted cardiac pacemakers or AICD devices:
Any source of RF (radio frequency) energy mayinterfere with normal functioning of the implanted device. All wireless microphones have low-power transmitters (less than 0.05 watts output) which are unlikely to cause difficulty, especial-
ly if they are at least a few inches away. However, since a body-pack mic transmitter typically is placed against the body, we suggest attaching it at the belt, rather than in a shirt pocket where it may be immediately adjacent to the medical device. Note also that any medical-device disruption will cease when the RF transmitting source is turned off. Please contact your physician or medical-device provider if you have any questions, or experience any problems with the use of this or any other RF equipment. Introduction Thank you for choosing an Audio-Technica professional wireless system. You have joined thousands of other satisfied customers who have chosen our products because of their quality, perfor-
mance and reliability. This Audio-Technica wireless microphone system is the successful result of years of design and manufac-
turing experience. 3000 Series systems and components operate on 200 PLL-
synthesized frequencies in one or two 25 MHz-wide UHF frequency ranges:
Band C 541.500566.375 MHz (TV Channels 2530) Band D 655.500680.375 MHz (TV Channels 4449) 2 For simplicity, model numbers used throughout the manual will reference only the basic model number without the C or D band indications. Each wireless system includes a receiver and either a body-
pack or handheld transmitter. Individual components are also available separately. All 3000 Series components feature soft-touch controls for quick, easy access to a formidable range of functions; an LCD information display in each unit provides convenient visual indication of unit settings and operation. The ATW-R3100 receiver is equipped with automatic frequency scanning for easy set-up. It also features true diversity reception. Two antennas feed two completely independent RF sections on the same frequency; automatic logic circuitry continuously compares and selects the superior received signal, providing better sound quality and reducing the possibility of interference and dropouts. Soft-touch controls provide convenient access to a variety of functions, while an LCD information display provides constant monitoring of system operation, including indication of the transmitters battery status. The receiver is half-width for a standard 1U 19" rack mount; rack-mount adapters are included. Two receivers can be mounted side by side, using an optional AT8630 joining-plate kit. The versatile ATW-T310 UniPak body-pack transmitter has both low- and high-impedance inputs plus a bias connection, for use with dynamic and electret condenser microphones, as well as Hi-Z instrument pickups. In addition to its programmable functions, the transmitter features a three-position sliding cover to limit access, if desired, to just the Power/Mute button, or to no controls, as appropriate for the application and user. The ATW-T341 handheld dynamic microphone/transmitter features the same element used in the Artist Elite AE4100 dynamic handheld microphone created for professional live-
sound venues. Transmitters in the 3000 Series use two 1.5V AA batteries for economical operation and wide availability. The receiver and both transmitters have fuel gauge battery condition indicators with low-battery warnings. An advanced Digital Tone Lock tone squelch system in the ATW-R3100 receiver opens only when a 3000 Series transmit-
ter is detected, reducing the possibility of interference. As a result, 3000 Series transmitters and receivers must be used together and should not be used with components from other Audio-Technica wireless systems, or with those of other manufacturers. Please note that in multiple-system applications there must be a transmitter-receiver combination set to a separate frequency for each input desired (only one transmitter for each receiver). Because the wireless frequencies are within UHF TV frequency bands, only certain operating frequencies may be useable in a particular geographic area. System operating frequencies will be found on page 13. Receiver Installation Antennas Attach the included pair of UHF antennas to the antenna input jacks. The antennas are normally positioned in the shape of a V (both 45 from vertical) for best reception. Antennas can be remotely located from the receiver. However, due to signal loss in cables at UHF frequencies, use the lowest-loss RF cables practical for any cable runs over 25 feet. RG8-type is a good choice. Use only copper-shielded cable, not CATV-type foil-shielded wire. Audio-Technica offers quality RF cables in four lengths, as well as remote antennas; see the Optional System Accessories section on page 12. Power Connections Connect the included AD1205AA in-line AC adapter to the DC power input on the back of the receiver. Loop the small cord from the DC plug over the cord hook above the jack, to keep the plug from being detached by an accidental tug on the cord. Then plug the larger cord from the in-line adapter into a standard 120 Volt 60 Hz AC power outlet. Operation of the receiver is controlled by the front-panel Power switch.
(Note: Units supplied to countries with 230V mains should include an in-line AC adapter appropriate for that country. Use the AD1205AA adapter only with 120V 60 Hz AC power sources.) Location For best operation the receiver should be at least 3 ft. (1 m) above the ground and at least 3 ft. away from a wall or metal surface to minimize reflections. The transmitter should be at least 3 ft. from the receiver, as shown in Figure A. Keep antennas away from noise sources such as digital equipment, motors, automobiles and neon lights, as well as away from large metal objects. Output Connections There are two audio outputs on the back panel: balanced
(32 mV) and unbalanced (50 mV). Use shielded audio cable for the connection between the receiver and the mixer. If the input of the mixer is a 1/4" jack, connect a cable from the 1/4"
unbalanced audio output on the back of the receiver housing to the mixer. If the input of the mixer is an XLR-type input, connect a cable from the balanced XLR-type audio output on the back panel to the mixer. The two isolated audio outputs permit simultaneous feeds to both unbalanced and balanced inputs. For example, both a guitar amp and a mixer can be driven by the receiver. Figure A See pages 18-19 for illustrations. 3 Receiver Controls and Functions Front Panel Controls and Functions (Fig. B) 1. POWER SWITCH: Press Power switch in and the receiver readouts will light. 2. ALERT INDICATOR: The Alert Indicator lights:

If hum caused by a ground loop occurs, slide switch to the right (ground lifted). 12. BALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT JACK: XLRM-type connector. A standard 2-conductor shielded cable can be used to connect the receiver output to a balanced microphone-level input on a mixer or integrated amplifier. 13. UNBALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT JACK: 1/4" phone jack. Can be connected to an unbalanced aux-level input of a mixer, guitar amp or tape recorder. 14. POWER INPUT JACK: Connect the DC plug from the included in-line AC adapter. 4 15. CORD HOOK: Loop the small DC cord around the cord hook to keep the DC plug from pulling out accidentally. Power On/Off To turn the receiver on, press in the Power switch. The Alert light and the LCD window will come on (about 1-2 seconds). The operating frequency will be displayed in the window after the power-up sequence. To turn the receiver off, press the Power switch again. LCD Window The LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) presents a great deal of setup and operating information clearly and conveniently. (See Figure D for examples.) Up/Down Arrow Buttons In conjunction with the Mode/Set button, the arrow buttons permit moving through the menu of functions, and choice of settings within each function. Mode/Set Button The Mode/Set button shifts the receiver from normal operation into Menu mode and, in conjunction with the Up/Down arrow buttons, permits selection of different features and changing of their stored values in the Edit mode. How to Make Setting Changes 1. From the normal operating mode, press the Mode/Set button onceto enter the Function Menu mode. (Only the frequency will remain in the LCD window, and the receivers audio output will be cut off.) 2. Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to reach the desired function. The value in the LCD window is the current setting for that function. 3. Press the Mode/Set button once again to open the list of available choices for that function. The value will flash, indicating that it can be changed (Edit mode). 4. Use the arrow buttons to go through the available choices, stopping on the desired new choice. 5.
(a) To accept and enter the new choice, press and holdthe Mode/Set button until STOREDappears in the LCD. This changes the value and puts the function of the buttons back at Menu level (step 2 above). (The B tuner light will come on while the Mode/Set button is depressed, to confirm its action.)
(b) To back out of the Edit mode without making a new choice, simply press the Mode/Set button once. The word ESCAPEwill appear in the window and the function of the buttons will revert to the Menu level (step 2 above), without making any changes. 6. Repeat this selection process for any other function changes desired. When finished with any changes, use the arrow buttons to move to QUIT. Press the Mode/Set button onceto exit the menu and return the receiver to normal operation. (RFand AFwill reappear in the window, indicating the return to normal receiver operation, with the receivers audio output again enabled.) How to Restore Default Settings To return allthe receiver functions to their original factory-
default settings, first turn the receiver off. Then hold in the Mode/Set buttonwhile pressing the Power switch. The LCD will briefly show RESET, followed by WAIT(release the Mode/Set button), before commencing normal-mode operation at the default settings. Receiver Controls and Functions (Continued) When the receiver is in the Menu or Edit mode, its audio output is silenced. Once control-setting operations are completed (or Escape is used), normal receiver operation will resume with its audio output restored. While in the Edit mode, if no action is taken for approxi-
mately 30 seconds (no buttons pressed), the receiver will back out to the Menu mode. Similarly, after about 30 seconds of inaction in the Menu mode, the receiver will back out to normal receiver operation with audio output restored. High-pass Filter Internal high-pass filter circuitry may be set to four positions:
High-pass Off, or a 6 dB, 12 dB or 18 dB slope at 150 Hz. The default setting is Off (HP OFF). Increasing the slope of the high-pass filter further suppresses unwanted low frequencies, while maintaining the frequency response in the desired audio range. Meter Hold Setting When activated (MH ON), this function permits the bar-meters in the LCD window to capture and display the highest-level AFaudio modulation (a solid bar) and the lowest-level "RF"signal (a flashing bar) received from the transmitter. This is particularly useful when setting up the system initially, during a sound-check, or when diagnosing operating problems. The default setting is Off (MH OFF). When the Meter Hold is On, it is possible to reset it to obtain a new set of RF and AF readings without turning it off-and-on using the Menu/Edit functions. Simply press the transmitters Power/Mute button once (to mute the transmitter) and wait until the receivers Alert light comes on,indicating the Mute condition. Then press the transmitters Power/Mute button once again, to un-mute the transmitter. After the Alert light goes out,a new set of min/max RF/AF readings will be indicated on the bar-meters. (Note that, depending upon the digital updating-
and-confirming sequence of the Mute condition data from the transmitter, it may take several seconds for the Alert light condition to change. The Meter Hold function is not reset until the Alert light has turned on, then turned off.) Digital Tone Lock Squelch The 3000 Series employs a unique Digital Tone Lock squelch system that provides enhanced rejection of interference. In addition to providing highly effective control of unwanted noise, the Tone Lock signal from the transmitter also conveys data on the transmitters battery condition and mute status back to the receiver for display. The squelch level is adjustable from 15 dB (the default value) to 39 dB in 6 dB steps. Increasing the squelch level also called tightening the squelch can cause a reduction in useable range of the wireless transmitter, so use the lowest value that reliably mutes the unwanted RF signals. (If interference is a problem, first consider trying a different frequency.) Receiver Functions Function Menu Default Setting*

Receiver Functions See pages 18-19 for illustrations. 5 s t s t s t s t s t s t Transmitter Controls And Functions Refer to Figures E, F, G and H on pages 18 and 19 for an overview of transmitter features and controls. LCD Window The Liquid Crystal Display presents a great deal of setup and operating information clearly and conveniently (See examples in Fig. J). The LCD in the transmitters is designed for greatest contrast and best viewing with the window rotated somewhat awayfrom the viewer (about 30 degrees), not straight-on, for a more convenient holding/viewing position. Power/Mute Button The transmitters have a combination Power and Mute switch. When used in combination with the programmed choices explained below, the various functions available to the transmitter user may be tailored to fit personal preferences or particular situations of use. Power On/Off To turn the transmitter on, press and hold the Power/Mute button until the red power indicator and the LCD window come on (about 1-2 seconds). The operating frequency will show in the window after the power-up sequence. To turn the transmitter off, press and holdthe Power/Mute button again, until the red power indicator and the LCD window are extinguished (about 1-2 seconds). The LCD window will show PWR.OFFbefore shutdown. Mute Off/On When the transmitter is muted, it produces RF with no audio signal modulation. When the transmitter is un-muted, it produces both RF and audio. To mute the transmitter (cut off the audio, but continue the RF output), press and releasethe Power/Mute button once. A small MUTEwill appear in the LCD window, just below the frequency (Fig. J-2). To un-mute the transmitter (restore the audio), press and releasethe Power/Mute button onceagain. The MUTEwill disappear from the LCD window. Power/Mute Locks Programmable Power/Mute Locks limit the functioning of the Power/Mute button as desired for particular users and/or appli-
cations. Power can be locked On; Mute can be locked Off. Selection of the desired locks, if any, is made through the function menu:
Setting Description NO.LOC ALL.LOC The normal Power and Mute functions are fully operational. Both the Power and Mute functions are locked into their status as of the time ALL.LOCis applied. (Power On, and Mute either On or Off.) Note: ALL.LOCmust be re-accessed and the setting changed to turn the transmitter off. MUT.LOC In this mode, the audio cannot be muted. The Power functioning is unaffected. (If MUT.LOCis applied while the transmitter is muted, pressing the Power/Mute button once will return to un-muted operation; thereafter the Mute function is disabled until the setting is changed again.) 6 PWR.LOC Power is locked On as of the time PWR.LOC is applied. The Mute functioning is unaffected. Note: When in the PWR.LOCmode, the transmitter may be turned off by: (1) Re-accessing the .LOCMenu and changing the setting, or
(2) Removing and re-installing the batteries. When the transmitter is turned on again, it will power-up in the NO.LOCmode. (Only the PWR. LOCfunction will change when batteries are removed; all other settings remain stored in memory.) If an attempt is made to take an action that currently is locked out, the LCD will display LOC.KEDbriefly, then return to its previously-displayed contents. Audio Input Selector The UniPak body-pack transmitter provides input connections for both low-impedance (Lo-Z) microphones and high-
impedance (Hi-Z) instruments. A wide range of Audio-Technica Wireless Essentials microphones and cables is available pre-terminated with the appropriate professional latching connector. (See page 12.) Selection of the desired input microphone or instrument is made through the function menu. Depending upon the input selected, a small MICor INSTwill show in the LCD window, just below the frequency. (In the handheld transmitter, only MICwill show in the LCD window.) Setting Audio Input Level A 4-position audio input gain setting, selected through the function menu, serves to match the audio input level to the transmitter for best modulation with minimum distortion. Available choices are +12 dB, +6 dB, 0 dB and 6 dB. The default value is +6 dB. Select the highest setting that does not result in over-modulation with the highest audio/instrument input levels (an AF indication on the receiver no higher than 0); watch the receivers AFmeter +3/+6indications and the Alert light to make certain they are not triggered by the highest audio levels. The transmitters normally-on red LED power indicator will blink off if the peak audio input exceeds the maximum desirable level. Restore Default Settings A PRESETselection in the menu permits resetting of all transmitter functions to their factory-default values. 1. Press the Set button once to move to Menu mode. 2. Press the Up arrow twice to move to PRESETin the LCD window. 3. Press the Set button once and LOADwill appear in the LCD. 4. Press and holdthe Set button until DEFappears in the LCD. 5. Press and holdthe Set button until LOADEDappears briefly in the LCD. The window will then revert to PRESET. 6. Press the Down arrow once to move to QUIT. 7. Press the Set button once to exit the Menu mode and return to normal operation, with all factory-default settings restored.

A number of Audio-Technica professional microphones and cables are available separately, pre-terminated with a UniPak input connec-
tor (see Optional System Accessories on page 12). The cable connector latches automatically when inserted into the transmit-
ter jack. To unlatch and remove the connector, simply pull up on the connectors knurled metal collar. UniPak Transmitter Antenna The UniPak transmitter includes a field-replaceable flexible antenna. For best results, allow the antenna to hang freely and full length from the bottom of the transmitter. If the received signal is marginal, experiment with different transmitter positions on your body or instrument; or try repositioning the receiver or using remote receiver antennas. Since the transmitter antenna simply screws in, check it occasionally to make certain it is snugly attached (finger-tight). Do not change the length of the transmitting antenna. Handheld Transmitter Antenna The antenna for the handheld mic/transmitter is in the black, non-metallic section at the bottom of the unit (Fig. F). For best results, hold the mic/transmitter naturally, around its painted metal case; holding or otherwise covering the antenna housing may affect operating range. UniPak Transmitter Mounting Clip The UniPak transmitters mounting clip may be installed with the case positioned either up or down, depending upon which is preferred for the application. To turn the clip around, spring the ends of the clip out of the two holes on the sides of the transmitter case (Fig. E) and reinstall it facing in the opposite direction. Battery Selection and Installation Each transmitter uses two 1.5V AA batteries, not included. Alkaline type is recommended. Always replace both batteries. Make certain the transmitter power is Off before replacing batteries. UniPak Transmitter Battery Installation 1. Open the battery compartment door by sliding the catch down (Fig. K). (If no batteries are inside, the door will not spring open by itself.) 2. Observe correct polarity as marked on the metal contacts on the doorand carefully insert two fresh 1.5V AA alkaline batteries (Fig. L). 3. Close the door, making certain the latch clicks securely in place. Handheld Transmitter Battery Installation 1. While holding the lower body cover (near the LCD window), grasp the upper part of the transmitter body just belowthe grille and unscrew it at least four complete turns (Fig. G);
then slide the lower body cover down until it stops (Fig. H). Once the cover has been lowered, turn the transmitter over to reveal the battery compartment on the side opposite the LCD window. 2. Observe correct polarity as marked inside the battery compartmentand carefully insert two fresh 1.5V AA alkaline batteries (Fig. M). Insert the first battery and slide it down. Then insert the second battery, bottom first, into the space remaining. Make certain the batteries are fully seated in the battery compartment. 3. Slide the lower body cover back up the body, then screw the housing together. Do not overtighten. Note: Remove batteries from the handheld transmitter starting at the bottom( end) of the top battery (Fig. M). The top
(+ end) of the top battery is captured in a recess and will not come straight out. Battery Condition Indicator After the batteries are installed, turn the power on by pressing and holdingthe Power/Mute button. The small red power-on LED (Fig. E/F) should light and the LCD window should come on. If this does not happen, the batteries are installed incorrectly or they are dead. The transmitters fuel gauge battery indicator displays a maximum of four bar segments. When it flashes LOW.BAT, the batteries should be replaced immedi-
ately to ensure continued operation. (The receiver also displays transmitter battery condition in the LCD window with bar segments; the Alert indicator comes on to warn of a low-battery condition.) 8 System Operation Setting Receiver Frequency Manually 1. Press the Mode/Set button once; then only the frequency will appear in the LCD window. (The receiver is now in the Menu mode.) See Figure D-2. 2. Press the Mode/Set button again; the Alert light will come on and the frequency in the window will flash. (The receiver is now in the Edit mode, Fig. D-3.) 3. Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to change the frequency. Press either arrow for single steps, or hold down either arrow for rapid cycling through the band. Frequencies wrap around to the other end of the range when the top or bottom of the band is reached. Choose a frequency appropriate for your area, avoiding frequencies with active TV channels. (See the frequency listings on page 13.) 4. To activate this frequency selection, press and holdthe Mode/Set button until the word STOREDappears in the receivers window. (If you do not wish to complete this particular selection, just press the Mode/Set button once. The word ESCAPEwill appear briefly in the window and the receiver will return to the Menu mode.) 5. When finished entering a frequency, press the Down arrow button once to move to QUIT. Then press the Mode/Set button onceto exit the menu. The RFand AFscales will reappear in the window, indicating the return to normal operation. Switch on the receiver. Do notswitch on the transmitter yet. Selecting/Setting Frequency Selection of the desired operating frequency is made through the function menus. Its usually best to start by setting the receivers frequency, to determine there is no local interference on that frequency. Then, always make certain to set the trans-
mitter to the receivers exact frequency. The receivers unique Digital Tone Lock system squelches the audio only, permitting any RF energy on the frequency to show on the RF bar-meter. Note: Its often convenient to start with the factory-default frequency, if there is no TV station on Channel 25 (for Band C systems) or Channel 44 (for Band D systems). Receiver On The Alert indicator and the LCD window will light up; the normal-operation LCD display will appear after 1-2 seconds (Fig. D-1). If any of the bars show in the RFbar-graph meter, there may be RF interference in the area. If this occurs, select another frequency as explained below. (If the Meter Hold function has been selected, one of the RF bars will be flashing, indicating the lowest RF level received.) Using the Automatic Scan Function to Set Receiver Frequency Automatically 1. Press the Mode/Set button once; then the RF and AF scales will disappear from the window and only the frequency will appear in the LCD window. (The receiver is now in the Menu mode.) See Figure D-2. 2. Use the Up arrow button to reach Scan 1, Scan 2, or Scan 3. Press the Mode/Set button once to select one of these three Scan groups. The lowest frequency in the selected Scan group will appear in the LCD window. 3. Press the Up arrow button to begin the scan. The word SCAN1, SCAN2 or SCAN3 will flash in the LCD window, depending on which Scan group you selected in step 2. 4. The first available frequency will flash in the LCD window. To activate this frequency selection, press and holdthe Mode/Set button until the word STORED appears in the LCD window. (If you do not wish to complete this particular selection, just press the Mode/Set button once. The word ESCAPE will appear briefly in the window and the receiver will return to the Menu mode.) 5. After you have activated your frequency selection (step 4), the RF and AF scales will reappear in the window, indicating the return to normal operation. 6. If you are using multiple systems, after completing the first receiver's scan and frequency selection, set the transmitter to the same frequency (see Setting Transmitter Frequency instructions on page 10); leave the transmitter On, and run the next receivers automatic scan function. Always set a receiver-transmitter pair to the same frequency before using the automatic scan function to select a frequency for the next receiver. See pages 18-19 for illustrations. 9 System Operation (Continued) Transmitter On Turn on the transmitter by pressing and holding the Power/Mute button (Fig. E/F) for a second or two, until the red power indicator and the LCD window have come on. Set Transmitter Audio Input Level A 4-position audio input gain setting, selected through the function menu, serves to match the audio input level to the transmitter for best modulation with minimum distortion. Setting Transmitter Frequency 1. Press the Set button once and the small word MENU will appear above the frequency. Press the Set button again and the small flashingword EDITwill appear to the right of MENU. See Figures J-3 and J-4. 2. Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to change the transmitter frequency. Press either arrow for single steps, or hold down either arrow for rapid cycling through the range. Frequencies wrap around when the top or bottom of the band is reached. Select the exactfrequency displayed on the receiver. 3. To activate this frequency selection, press and holdthe Set button until the word STOREDappears in the transmitters window. (If you do not wish to complete this selection, just press the Set button once:the word ESCAPEwill appear briefly in the window and the transmitter will return to the Menu mode.) 4. When finished entering a frequency, press the Up arrow button onceto move to QUIT. Then press the Set button onceto exit the menu. The word MENUin the transmitter window will go off, indicating the return to normal operation. When the transmitter is switched on and in normal operation, the receivers RFsignal-level bars will display from bottom to top, with more bars indicating increased signal reception. For optimum performance at least four, and preferably five or more, of the RF indicators should be displayed. Setting Levels Correct adjustment of transmitter audio input, receiver audio output, and mixer/amplifier input and output levels is important for optimum system performance. Available choices are +12 dB, +6 dB, 0 dB and 6 dB. The default setting is +6 dB. Select the highest setting that does not result in over-modulation with the highest audio/instrument input levels (an AF indication on the receiver no higher than 0); watch the receivers AFbar-graph +3/+6indications and the Alert light, to make certain that they are not triggered by the highest audio levels. The transmitters normally-on red LED power indicator will blink offif the peak audio input exceeds the maximum desirable level. RF Power Adjustment RF power may be set to RF HI(30 mW nominal) or RF LOW(10 mW nominal) through the function menu. The default setting is RF LOW. While the High setting normally provides maximum operating range, the Low setting will help extend battery life. The Low setting may also be preferred in multi-
channel systems, or when operating very close to the receiver, to reduce the possibility of interference or overload. RF Interference Please note that wireless frequencies are shared with other radio services. According to Federal Communications Commission regulations, Wireless microphone operations are unprotected from interference from other licensed operations in the band. If any interference is received by any Government or non-Government operation, the wireless microphone must cease operation... If you need assistance with operation or frequency selection, please contact your dealer or the Audio-Technica professional division. Extensive wireless information also is available on the Audio-Technica Web site at www.audio-technica.com. 10 Specifications OVERALL SYSTEM UHF Operating Frequency Band C:

* Number of wireless frequencies in TV Channel. 14 Ten Tips to Obtain the Best Results 1. Use only fresh alkaline batteries. Do not use general purpose (carbon-zinc) batteries. 2. Position the receiver so that it has the fewest possible obstructions between it and the normal location of the transmitter. Line-of-sight is best. 3. The transmitter and the receiver should be as close together as conveniently possible, but no closer than three feet (1 m). 4. Avoid placing the receiver in a low or shielded location where the transmitter and receiver antennas are not visible to each other. If necessary, use remotely-located receiver antennas. 5. Avoid placing the receiver near computers or other RF generating equipment. 6. The receiver and transmitter must be set to the same frequency. 7. A receiver cannot receive signals from two transmitters at the same time. 8. Do not obstruct the handheld transmitters antenna
(located at the base) or attached body-pack transmitters antenna with your hands. 9. You need to change frequencies 1) when a strong interference signal is received, 2) when audio quality is poor due to weak RF, or 3) during multiple-system operation in order to select an interference-free frequency. 10. Turn the transmitter off when not in use. Remove the batteries if the transmitter is not to be used for a period of time. A word about "Digital TV"
The advent of "digital TV" has greatly increased the number of TV broadcast transmitters in operation and has added a new and different type of TV signal to the airwaves. Digital TV spreads its transmitted power fairly uniformly across an entire 6 MHz-wide TV channel, effectively blocking use of any of the frequencies for wireless mic systems in the local area. By comparison, the original type of television transmission, analog TV, concentrates the broadcast power within certain fairly narrow frequency ranges within the 6 MHz-wide TV channel. As a result, wireless systems usually can still operate on frequencies where the power is notconcentrated, even through an analog TV station is transmitting. This ability for wireless systems to co-exist with analog TV stations permits the use of many more frequencies than would seem to be available, just based upon the number of TV channels in use locally. And while analog vs. digital does add a new complexity to wireless frequency selection and system design, it remains the case that your wireless needs canbe achieved. Our website, www.audio-technica.com, offers a wide range of information about multi-channel operation and frequency selection. In addition, A-Ts resources are on call at any time to assist you in specifying, installing and troubleshooting large wireless systems. For future reference, please record your system information here:
Receiver ATW-R3100___ S/N C/D Serial Number appears on the FCC label on the back of the receiver. Transmitter ATW-T310___ S/N C/D Serial Number appears on the FCC label on the back of the transmitter. ATW-T341___ S/N C/D Serial Number appears in a recess in the battery compartment of the transmitter. 15 Troubleshooting Guide Receiver is not on (LCD window does not light). Receiver Power switch is not pressed in. Receiver is on (LCD window lights) Distorted sound Alert light is ON:
Small DC power cord from included in-line power supply is not plugged into jack on back of receiver. (Use the cord hook to secure it.) 3RFand/or AFlevel meters may show good signals. The transmitter audio level is too high (+3/+6on receiver). [See p. 9.]
The in-line power supply is not plugged into AC power outlet. AC power is not present at the AC outlet. Received RF level may be too low (only one or two bars). Batteries may be weak; check BATTfuel gauge.
(Sound may or may not be distorted.) Momentary loss of sound/noisy sound as transmitter is moved around performing area. Transmitter and receiver antennas not in line-of-sight
(or perhaps too far apart). Adjust positions of units so they are visible to each other/closer together; use remote antennas located closer to the transmitter location. Signal blockage or interference from large metal objects, other wireless units located too close and/or on incompatible frequencies, computer or lighting equipment. Squelch setting may be set tighter than it needs to be. (Recommended squelch setting is the minimum/default value, 15 dB.) [See p. 5.]
Tip: Use the Meter Hold function to help identify and resolve (or at least avoid) RF problem locations.
[See p. 5.]
With transmitter on, received signal is noisy or contains extraneous sounds. Batteries may be weak. Check BATTfuel gauge and RFmeter level. Local TV transmissions on this frequency. Nearby sources of RF interference, such as computers, lighting equipment, etc. Two transmitters may be operating on the same frequency. Locate and turn one off or change its frequency. In multiple-system use, two (or more) incompatible frequencies may have been selected. Receiver is on (LCD window lights) No sound Alert light is OFF:
3RF, AFand BATT legends do not appear in LCD Receiver is in the Menu mode. [See p. 4.]
3RFand "AF"level meters both show good signals. AF Level control on back of receiver not turned up
(clockwise). [See p. 4.]
Note: If the AFlevel meter shows a good signal on the receiver when the transmitter is receiving audio input, and the AF Level control is turned up, then the problem is in connections to or control settings on the mixer, amplifier, etc. 3Only RFlevel meter shows good signal; no AF signal. No sound input to mic. ATW-T310 body-pack only: Wrong input selected (INST or MIC). [See p. 6.]
Receiver is on (LCD window lights) No sound Alert light is ON:
3RF, AFand BATTlegends do not appear in LCD, and LCD is flashing Receiver is in the Edit mode. [See p. 4.]
3RFand AFlevel meters both show good signals. The transmitter audio level is too high
(+3/+6on receiver). [See p. 9.]
Batteries may be weak. (Check BATTfuel gauge.) 3Only RFlevel meter shows good signal; no AF signal. Transmitter may be muted. (Note: Normally it takes several seconds for the Alert light to turn off/on after the transmitter mute is switched off/on.) [See p. 5.]
3Neither the RFnor the AFlevel meter shows any signal. Receiver antennas not connected. Transmitter is turned off. Transmitter batteries are dead or missing. Transmitter is set to a different frequency. Transmitter and receiver not in same Band (C/D). 16 Troubleshootings First Line of Defense: Factory-Default Settings Incorrect settings on the receiver and/or transmitter can make the wireless systems operation seem poor, or even dead. To eliminate the possibility that incorrect function settings are the source of problems, restore both the receiver and the transmitterto their factory-default settings. RECEIVER To return allreceiver functions to their original factory-default settings:
1. First, turn the receiver off. 2. Hold in the Mode/Set buttonwhile pressing the Power switch to turn the receiver back on. The LCD will briefly show RESET, followed by WAIT(release the Mode/Set button), before commencing normal-mode operation with all factory-default settings restored.
(3.) (If the default frequency is not useable in your area, set both the receiver and the transmitterto the same suitable frequency.) TRANSMITTER To return alltransmitter functions to their factory-default settings:
1. Press the Set button once to move to Menu mode. 2. Press the Up arrow twice to move to PRESETin the LCD window. 3. Press the Set button once and LOADwill appear in the LCD. 4. Press and holdthe Set button until DEFappears in the LCD. 5. Press and holdthe Set button until LOADEDappears briefly in the LCD. The window will then revert to PRESET. 6. Press the Down arrow once to move to QUIT. 7. Press the Set button once to exit the Menu mode and return to normal operation, with all factory-default settings restored.
(8.) (If the default frequency is not useable in your area, set both the receiver and the transmitter to the same suitable frequency.) Alert Conditions The red Alert indicator on the receiver signals the user regarding a number of operating conditions. Transmitter conditions:
3 No RF When no RF signal is received from transmitter. 3 Weak RF When only one or two RF signal-strength bars are on. 3 Transmitter Muted When the transmitter is in the Mute* mode. 3 Transmitter Audio Too High When audio modulation level from the transmitter is close to the clipping point
(AF +3/+6 bars). 3 Batteries Weak When only one bar of the Battery* fuel gauge is on. Receiver conditions:
3 Edit Mode When the receiver is in the Function Edit mode.
* These functions use digital data supplied from the transmitter. It can take up to several seconds for the receiver display to be updated with the latest mute/unmute and battery status information. This is normaloperation for both the Alert light and the BATTindication. 17 Figure B Receiver Front Panel ON OFF POWER ALERT
