For any problems with the transmitter or adapter, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the respective device. If the problem persists, consult your Sony dealer. Symptom The receiver does not turn on. There is no sound. Meanings The receiver is not correctly inserted into the slot of the camcorder or the optional DWA-
01D/F01D wireless adapter. The channel setting on the transmitter is different from that on the receiver. The transmitter is turned off. The setting of the encrypted transmission function on the receiver is different from that on the transmitter. When the receiver is attached through the optional DWA-01D/
F01D wireless adapter, the setting of the sync signal is not appropriate. The sound is weak. There is distortion in the sound. The attenuation level on the transmitter is too high. The AES/EBU reference output level is set to 36 dBFS LINEAR. The attenuation level of the transmitter is zero or too low. A LINE level signal is being input while the input level of the transmitter set to MIC. Remedy Insert the receiver until it is firmly and completely in, and then secure it with the mounting screws. Use the same channel setting on both the transmitter and receiver. Check the power supply or battery of the transmitter. Confirm that the setting of the encrypted transmission function is the same on both the transmitter and the receiver. Using the sync signal selection
(SYNC SOURCE) function, set the sync signal to INTERNAL. When an external sync signal is used, confirm the connection of the sync signal, and set to AUTO or EXTERNAL. Set the attenuator on the transmitter to an appropriate level. Set the reference output level according to the use (see page 20). The input level of the transmitter is extremely high. Adjust the attenuation level on the transmitter so that there is no distortion to the sound. Refer to the operating instructions supplied with the transmitter and set the input level to LINE. Troubleshooting 31 Meanings The RF indicator lights up even when the transmitter is turned off. Symptom There is sound interruption or noise. Two or more transmitters are set to the same channel. The channel is not set within the same channel group. Wireless remote control is not possible. Pairing has not been established between the transmitter and receiver. The receiver is too far from the transmitter for communication to occur. The transmitter that was paired with the receiver has been paired with another receiver. The software version of the transmitter is not suitable for use with this receiver. Remedy Jamming radio waves are being received. Set the channel whose RF indicator on the receiver does not light up, and then set that same channel on the transmitter. When two or more transmitters are being used, change to another channel group that is unaffected by jamming radio waves. When doing this, the clear channel scan function is useful. It is not possible to use two or more transmitters that are set to the same channel. Refer to the Sony digital wireless frequency lists and reset the transmitter channel. The channel plan of the receiver use is set so that no signal interference occurs when two or more transmitters are used simultaneously. Set each transmitter to a different channel within the same channel group. Carry out pairing (see page 26). Check the condition level. If it is low, decrease the distance between the transmitter and the receiver. Carry out pairing again with the transmitter that you want to control. Refer to the supplied transmitter software compatibility table, and confirm whether the software version of the transmitter is suitable for use with this receiver. If it is not suitable, software update is necessary. Contact your Sony service representative. Check the conditions for using a USB keyboard with the receiver

Clean the surface and the connectors of the receiver with a dry, soft cloth. Never use thinner, benzene, alcohol or any other chemicals, since these may mar the finish. Transmitter software version If the software version is not suitable for use with this receiver, the wireless remote control function may not function. A software update may be necessary to enable proper functioning. For details on software updates, contact your Sony service representative. When using a US model, always update the software on the transmitter. Audio degradation due to weak reception In a digital wireless system, sound quality is maintained up to the maximum transmission range. Beyond this point, as the radio wave becomes weaker, data synchronization is lost and the connection finally breaks. Sony digital wireless systems suppress the occurrence of large noise between these two points as the signal weakens. As a result, digital processing is conducted in a way that allows the signal to degrade in a very natural way. Important Notes on Operation Notes on Using the Receiver
The digital wireless microphone system product must be used within a temperature range of 0C to 50C (32F to 122F).
Operating the receiver near electrical equipment (motors, transformers, or dimmers) may cause it to be affected by electromagnetic induction. Keep the receiver as far from such equipment as possible.
The presence of the lighting equipment may produce electrical interference over the entire frequency range. Position the receiver so that interference is minimized.
To avoid degradation of the signal-to-
noise ratio, do not use the receiver in noisy places or in locations subject to vibration, such as the following:
