HH Handheld Transmitter TECHNICAL DATA Preliminary Digital Hybrid Wireless Technology Standard thread-on capsules Membrane switch and LCD interface AA battery power Selectable RF power at 50 and 100 mW Talkback feature The HH Digital Hybrid Wireless handheld transmitter represents an elegant solution for a variety of wireless microphone applications including live performance, broadcast, AV rental and houses of worship. The HH incorporates many advanced features to provide high-
quality speech and vocal reinforcement. Along with providing peerless audio quality with wide frequency response and dynamic range in native 400 Series mode, the technology used in the HH includes compatibility modes for Lectrosonics 200 Series, 100 Series and IFB receivers, and some systems from other top manufactur-
ers. (Contact Lectrosonics for details.) Interchangeable Capsules Lectrosonics offers the HHC cardioid condenser capsule. Thread-on capsules from other manufacturers using a 1.25 opening and 28 thread pitch can also be used, including those from manufacturers such as EV, Shure, Heil SoundTM, Telefunken and others.*
Digital Hybrid Wireless Digital Hybrid Wireless is a revolutionary design that combines digital audio with an analog FM radio link to provide both outstanding audio quality and exemplary, noise-free RF performance. Us-
ing a patented algorithm to encode 24-bit digital audio information in the transmitter into an analog format, the encoded signal is then transmitted over an analog FM wireless link. At the receiver, the signal is then decoded to restore the original digital audio. This process eliminates compandor artifacts and produces an audio frequency response flat to 20 kHz.

Rio Rancho, NM, USA www.lectrosonics.com Selectable RF Transmission Power The HH transmitter allows the user to select from among two power settings depending on the needs of the situation. The lower RF power setting uses slightly less current, thus battery life is enhanced. The higher power setting provides greater range and resistance to drop-
outs. Selecting the RF power is accomplished using the control menu. Specifications Operating frequencies:

(The HH transmits battery status to Lectrosonics 200 or 400 Series receivers.) 1.25 opening and 28 thread pitch Power available: 5V, 25 mA max Input impedance: 1000 Ohms 11.4 oz. with lithium batteries and HHC capsule 9.5 long x 1.97 diameter at largest point Mute and Talkback Functions The button on the back of transmitter below the head can be used to actuate an audio mute condition. This button can also be disabled using the control panel inside the battery compartment. An alternative function that can be actuated by this button is a talkback func-
tion. In this state, the transmitter sends a signal to the Venue receiver when the button is pushed - the receiver then switches the audio to a second output which can be routed differently. This function can be used for talkback, cueing or other purposes depending on the application. This functionality requires a Venue receiver with firmware version X.XX or later.
