The Power Supply and basic Battery Management.
The power supply of Dynasty 1000 system comes from the two pieces of 12V /
4.5 AH built-in rechargeable batteries ( maintenance free Lead Acid type,
which has no memory effect ) . An understanding and knowledge of
rechargeable battery is imperative in the operation of the portable sound
system as it helps to give a trouble-free operation of this system.
After unpacking the unit for the first time, please charge the rechargeable
batteries in the system first for at least 10 hours before any operation. This is a
very important procedure that user MUST undertake in order to get the longest
life span out of the batteries. Failure to follow this proper battery management
instruction may cause the user end up paying for new batteries.
The rechargeable batteries were fully charged in the factory before shipment.
However, the unit you have just unpacked could have been several months old
and the built-in lead acid rechargeable batteries might have been
discharged or drained. This is analogue of car which has been left unused for
months and the restart is impossible due to flat battery. It is thus imperative that
a full charge is absolute necessary for a new system or system left unused for
several months.
To charge the battery, simply plug in the AC supply and the charging process
will start automatically and the battery status indicator ( 16 ) will flash. When
permanent Green light appears, it means the batteries are fully charged.
Normal operation could now be resumed. When the charging indicator ( 16 )
lights up in RED, it means battery is weak and charging is required. In an urgent
case when the system must be used while the system is still under charging, for
this system it is still possible as the AC power supply is designed such that it also
provide the power for the system while charging the batteries but this could
only be done when the charging process has started for at about 5 minutes
and some minimum energy has been stored in the batteries.

Operating the Wireless Microphone System.
To use the First wireless system, switch on the receiver module power supply switch WM1(4) .
Switch on the corresponding matching transmitter or handheld microphone ( please refer
to the operating instruction of the individual transmitter ). When RF signal is being received
by the receiver, the receiver RF signal indicator 1 ( 2 ) will light up. Rotate the control
WM1 ( 4 ) and MASTER volume control ( 10 ) clockwise to increase the volume. When
voice is spoken into the microphone, amplified sound should be heard over the built-in
speaker.
This instruction is for system which is equipped with two wireless receiver modules, To use
the Second wireless system, switch on the receiver module power supply switch WM2 ( 5 ).
Switch on the corresponding matching transmitter or handheld microphone. When RF
signal is being received by the receiver, the receiver RF signal indicator 2 ( 3 ) will light
up. Rotate the WM 2 control ( 5 ) and MASTER volume control ( 10 ) clockwise to increase
the level. When voice is spoken into the microphone, amplified sound should be heard
over the built-in speaker.
Operating the Wired / Cable Microphone
To use the wired microphone, simply plug in the wired microphone connector into the XLR
/ Phone jack combo connector ( 1 ) . This unique connector accept either XLR or 1/4
Phone Jack male connector. Rotate the MIC In volume control ( 11 ) and MASTER Volume
control ( 10 ) clockwise to increase the volume. When voice is spoken into the wired
microphone, amplified sound should be heard over the built-in or external speaker.
To use a second wired microphone, simply plug in the wired microphone cable
connector into LINE IN ( 6 ). Rotate the volume control ( 6 ) and MASTER volume control
clockwise to increase the volume. When voice is spoken into the wired microphone,
amplified sound should be heard over the built-in or external speaker.
Both wired and wireless microphone could be used simultaneously as there is a built-in
mixer to mix both input signals.
When all the levels are set, simply use the MASTER volume control ( 10 ) as main control.
Function of Speaker out
There are two types of Speaker out jack.
Speaker out ( unswitched ) (18 ) When an external speaker is connected to this output,
both the internal speaker of and the external speaker will have sound.

Add on a second receiver module
This instruction is for a system which is delivered without the 2nd receiver module and
you need to add on the 2nd module.
First, unscrew and remove the cover of the RECEIVER panel. Push in the 2nd module to
the right hand slot mark WM2. Before inserting this module, please verify that :
1.The 2nd module MUST be of the same frequency band ( VHF or UHF ) as the 1st module.
The pre-installed antenna of the 2nd module is of the same band as that of the 1st
module. Plugging in a 2nd module of a different band will severely affect the
performance due to unmatched antenna !
2.The frequency of the 2nd module MUST be from the non-interference list recommended
by Chiayo.
3.It is advisable to plug in the same type of receiver as the 1st one to get the same
performance. This is to say that if the 1st module is using a diversity receiver, it is
nd
advisable that the 2 module should use a diversity receiver vice versa.
