How to Set Your Transmitter Conguration
The CDT1 Transmitter has two modes for conguring the unit: Local Mode and Remote Mode . Local Mode
utilizes 5 buttons for conguration settings and frequency selection. To change the frequency or conguration
preset, press the enter button then select the digit you want to change by using the left/right
buttons the digit will ash when selected. Use the up/down arrows to change the selected digit.
When you are done press the enter button to save and activate the settings.
The CONFIG allows you to select one of 8 conguration presets as
shown in the tables below. The CDT1 can only be programmed
when it is set to conguration“0”which is programming mode.
“PROG”is displayed on the 4, seven segment displays to the left
when in programming mode.
Line/Mic (“-10d” /”-55d”) are selectable when CONFIG is set to“L”,
RS232/TTL (“232”/”3.3”) are selectable when CONFIG is set to“d”
and Power level 1mW to 100 mW (“0”-“20”) is selectable when
CONFIG is set to“P”(for variable power transmitters).
