While MTS-300 is set at mode Guide, max. 2 devices of connection will be allowed for duo-language
application (see instruction on page 13 “System daisy chain”). OmniGuide OMG-100R+ will be set at
mode “Listen” (see user manual of OMG-100T/R+ separately) and set at same channel as one of MTS-
300.
Troubleshooting
Trouble
Solution
Why can’t I turn the
system on?
Check if your power source is with correct voltage (12V).
Check if the system is connected with supplied adapter already.
Why can’t I hear
anything from
bodypack receiver?
Check if the bodypack receiver is turned on.
Check if selected channel on both system and receiver is same.
