Thank you for choosing the Artist wireless microphone system!
Our products are designed to last and for user friendly operation. Each system consists of:
1. 1 x Artist NB-3100 receiver
2. 1 x Artist handheld or 1 x Artist belt-pack transmitter
3. 1 x power supply
4. 1 x operation manual
For more details, please take a few moments to read this operating manual to have a thorough
understanding of the functions and operation of both transmitter and receiver.

Scanning & Changing CHANNEL
First turn on main power switch, the two 7-segment display LED⑧will show last stored
frequency. For example, if channel 88 is 630.325MHz, the LED will first display 63, 03 and 25
in sequence and return to 88. When the transmitter is turned on and the receiver channel
corresponds with the transmitter, either A or B diversity indicator②will light up to indicate that it
is connected. If the A or B diversity indicators do not light up, the transmitter and receiver need
to be synchronized.
Before synchronizing your system, a channel scan should be performed to ensure you have
clean and inference operation.
To perform a channel scan, first ensure the transmitter must be switched off.
Press ▲or▼③ and the receiver will scan and stop at the next clean channel.
CHANNEL SYNCHRONIZING of the receiver and transmitter
1.To synchronize your system, hold the receiver and transmitter within 30cm of each other.
2.Align both IR sensor panels (see page 5 & 6 for IR sensor information)
3.Press the sync button⑥on the receiver. The receiver will transmit the frequency to the
transmitter and synchronize the channels.
If it doesn’t work check that you have the IR sensor panels aligned, that they are facing each
other, devices are within 30cm of each other, and try again.
Adjusting VOLUME level
Volume level can be adjusted by rotating the Power/volume knob①.
Adjusting SQUELCH level
When interference is encountered try reducing the sensitivity of the receiver by turning the SQ
control⑦clockwise, thus less susceptible to interference. If this still does not solve the problem
it means this frequency is not suitable. Adjust the squelch back to where it was and use the
scan function to locate a clear channel.
Please be aware that setting the squelch setting too high will reduce the receiving distance of
the system.
Receiver installation
For best operation, the receiver should be at least 1m above the
ground and 1m away from a wall or metal surface to minimize
reflections. The transmitter should also be at least 1m away from
a wall or metal surface to minimize reflections. The transmitter
should also be at least 1m away from the receiver. Keep
antennas away from noise source such as motors, automobiles,
neon light as well as large metal objects.
Audio output connection
There are two audio outputs on the back of the receiver, Mic-level balanced⑩and Line-level
unbalanced○
11 . Use shielded audio cable for the connection between the receiver and the
amplifier/mixer. If the amplifier/mixer has a 1/4"(6.3mm) phone jack, connect a cable from the
1/4"(6.3mm) unbalanced audio output from the receiver to the amplifier/mixer. If the
amplifier/mixer has an XLR input, connect a cable from the balanced XLR audio output from
the receiver to the amplifier/mixer input.

Handheld transmitter NH-3100
Parts and functions
1.Cartridge
2.Battery weak/power LED
3.Power switch
4.Battery cover
5.Bottom cap
6.IR sensor area
Battery installation & indicator
This transmitter requires 2 x AA batteries to operate.
To install, remove the battery cover④and slide the batteries into the battery compartment &
replace the battery cover.
Note: Batteries contain a corrosive acid that may leak and damage the transmitter when stored
for a long period. Batteries should be removed from the transmitter before storing without use
for more than 4 weeks.
When the transmitter is switched ON, a red LED②will blink once to indicate the batteries
installed are in good condition. If the LED remains illuminated the batteries have expired
and require replacement.
CHANNEL SYNCHRONIZING of the receiver and transmitter
4.To achieve successful synchronization hold the receiver and transmitter within 30cm of each
other.
5.Align both IR sensor panels
6.Press the sync button on the receiver and the receiver will transmit the frequency to the
transmitter and synchronize the channels.
If it doesn’t work check that you have the IR sensor panels aligned, that they are facing
each other, devices are within 30cm of each other, and try again.

Body-pack transmitter NB-3100
Parts and functions
1.Antenna
2.Cover release button
3.Gain control (GT, high impedance)
4.Gain control (MT, low impedance)
5.Battery compartment
6.Power switch
7.Power/battery weak indicator
8.IR sensor area
9. (Lavalier microphone) Mini XLR connector
10. Charging contacts
Battery installation & indicator
This body-pack requires 2 x AA batteries to operate.
To install, open the battery cover using the cover release buttons②and insert the batteries into
the battery compartment⑤.
Note: Batteries contain a corrosive acid that may leak and damage the body-pack when stored
for a long period. Batteries should be removed from the body-pack before storing without use
for more than 4 weeks.
When the transmitter is switched ON, the battery power LED⑦will blink once to indicate the
batteries installed are in good condition. If the LED remains illuminated the batteries have
expired and require replacement.
GAIN setting
Please use the attached small screw driver to set the GAIN level. Gain control is an adjustable
design that enables user to set different output levels. GT③is for the use of instrument with
high impedance, such as guitar while MT④is for the use of low impedance such as lavalier or
headset microphone.
1.To achieve successful synchronization hold the receiver and transmitter within 30cm of each
other.
2.Align both IR sensor panels
3.Press the sync button on the receiver and the receiver will transmit the frequency to the
transmitter and synchronize the channels.
If it doesn’t work check that you have the IR sensor panels aligned, that they are facing
each other, devices are within 30cm of each other, and try again.

Rack mounting
The receiver can be cabinet-mounted by either one or two units. If only one receiver is to be
mounted, an optional kit is available and it's installed as shown in Fig 1. If two receivers are to
be mounted, they can be assembled by another kit and installed as shown in Fig 2.
