Systemcomponents 1 x XLR Transmitter 1 XLR Receiver 1 Dual Charging Cable 1 x User Manual 1 x Storage Pouch 5 OperationGuidance Set up Step 1: Ensure sufficient battery charge for both the transmitter and receiver. Step 2: Press and hold the POWER button on both the receiver and transmitter to power them on. By default, the transmitter and receiver will automatically pair up within seconds. Step 3: Connect the receiver and transmitter to the next-level devices. Typically, connect the transmitter to dynamic microphones and condenser microphones, whereas connect the receiver to amplifiers, mixers, PA systems, etc.
*Note: When connecting the transmitter to other equipment, ensure that the +48V indicator light is off to avoid potential damage to the microphone or other devices. Step 4: Adjust the MIC/LINE switch to select the appropriate input level based on your audio source. Step 5: After successfully connecting, check the setup by talking through the microphone to verify the connection. Long press Long press Adjust the gain mode to
"MIC" or "LINE"
Frequency change Step 1: Press the CH button on the receiver, select the desired channel, and then press the SYNC button to confirm. Step 2: Align the IR window of the transmitter vertically with that of the receiver. Step 3: If pairing is successful, the RF light will remain illuminated in red, and both the receiver and transmitter will display the same channel number. 6 VERTICALLY Selects the desired channel transmitter receiver Operation tips Ensure that the +48V phantom power is off (the +48V indicator light is off) before connecting the normal dynamic microphone to prevent potential damage. Do not activate the +48V phantom Switch off +48V phantom power Switch on +48V phantom power power for dynamic microphones to avoid possible damage. After connecting a condenser microphone to the transmitter, press the +48V button to switch on phantom power. Set the switch to "MIC" for microphone-level inputs, suitable for dynamic microphones and condenser microphones (with the +48V phantom power activated). Set the switch to "LINE" for line-level inputs, such as audio mixers, keyboards, synthesizers, and other high-impedance instruments with higher output levels. Ensure that the MIC/LINE switch is in the correct position for optimal audio quality. Avoid sudden volume changes when switching modes to prevent damage to audio equipment. Hold the wired microphone correctly and securely when connecting it to the PTU-X. Turn off the power switch while charging, and avoid using the transmitter while charging to maintain battery life. X 7 Wireless tips If you encounter wireless interference or dropouts, try the following suggestions:
Choose a different frequency channel.Avoid approaching the receiver and transmitters with metal or other dense materials. Remove any devices causing possible signal interference, such as cellphones, computers, media players, two-way radios, and digital signal processors. If using multiple wireless systems, ensure each operates on a different frequency channel to prevent interference. FunctionsofParts Receiver RF light: The RF light remains red when in successful synchronization. BATT light: Turns yellow when the receiver has low battery and turns off when has sufficient battery. The indicator remains red during charging and turns off when the receiver is fully charged. Channel display: Displays the channel number. POWER button: Long press this button to turn on or off. IR window: For infrared synchronization setup. CH button: Selects the desired channel. There are 16 selectable frequency bands in total, from 0-F. SYNC button: Press the SYNC button to initiate synchronization process. USB-C port XLR output jack 8 Transmitter Adjustable locking knob: Rotates to tightly lock the wired mic rophone to the TX.
+48V indicator light: Turns red when the +48V phantom power is turned on. BATT light: Turns yellow when the receiver has low battery and turns off when has sufficient battery. The indicator remains red during charging and turns off when the receiver is fully charged. Channel display: Displays the channel number. POWER button: Long press this button to turn on or off. IR window: For infrared synchronization setup.
+48V phantom power: Press to supply phantom power for condenser microphone. MIC/LINE switch: Adjust the gain mode to "MIC" or "LINE". USB-C port XLR input jack 9 TroubleshootingTips Issue Solution Ensure the transmitter and receiver are powered on. Check if the battery is sufficient; otherwise, charge it to ensure its red power indicator lights off while you are using it. Check that the microphone is turned on and receiving signal from the transmitter. Make sure that the transmitter and receiver are on the same channel and that the RF light isinsolid red to confirm successful synchronization. If you are connecting a normal or dynamic microph-
one, please check whether the 48V phantom power is turned off; if you are connecting a condenser microphone, please check whether the 48V phantom power is turned on. Adjust the gain mode to either "MIC" or "LINE" within the device settings to select the appropriate input signal type as needed. Ensure proper frequency selection for the wireless microphone system to avoid interference with other wireless devices. Ensure that the distance between the transmitter and receiver falls within specified ranges. (Operating Distance: 30 Meters) If the battery is low, the BATT indicator light will turn yellow. Charge the receiver/transmitter via a USB-C data cable. Opt for operating within frequency bands with minimal interference. Remove nearby electronic devices that may cause interference. Minimize obstaclesbetween TX and RXto ensure smooth signal transmission.
