DONE!
2. Getting ready for use
1. Attach the antenna to the back of the receiver
by turning clockwise (do not use tools, do not
over tighten)
2. Plug the supplied adapter into a
110-230V supply, and the DC plug into the rear
panel DC socket. Only use the stageClix power
supply.
3. Use the supplied patch cable to connect the
rear panel output jack to your amplier or to
your amplier, the input of your effects unit,
mixer or stagebox.
4. Plug the transmitter into the front socket
marked ‘charge’ and leave the transmitter to
charge for some time, preferably more than
one hour.

The transmitter will be automatically switched off
when you pull the transmitter out of the receiver.
The transmitter is activated by pressing the single
button.
3. In use
3.5mm (high impedance)
This input is designed for line
level signals (eg. keyboards, ac-
tive guitars and basses)
2.5mm input (Pre-amplied)
Input with a built-in preamp for
microphones (clip-on’s and pick-
ups for acoustic instruments)

4. Digital or Wired sound
This unit offers the advantage of two sound options,
thanks to some clever circuitry in the transmitter.
The default setting is a pure, full bandwith digital
sound, or there is the option of using a ‘wired’ sound.
To select (or switch between) sounds, proceed as
follows:
--note that the transmitter must not be inserted into the receiver.--
Make sure the transmitter is switched on (white
LED glows). Now press the button on the transmit-
ter for at least ve consecutive seconds (the white
LED will stop glowing while doing this).
You have switched between sounds when the LED
on the transmitter starts to blink rapidly. This set-
ting will be stored.
If the batteries are completely drained, your sound
setting will be reset to the default setting. To
recover your setting after the batteries are charged
again, follow the same procedure. Your sound set-
ting can be switched at any time by following this
procedure.

5. Radio Frequency Hints
• If possible, install the receiver in a slightly elevated
position.
• Keep away from broadband interference sources
like WiFi accesspoints or WiFi-enabled laptops, and
switching power supplies.
• For maximum range keep the antenna away from
other cables and pointing upwards if possible.
• Stone walls and reinforced ferro-concrete walls may
partially block the signal.
• This system uses a patented digital transmission
technique and triple frequency diversity for a reliable
noise-free link.
• This set contains a transmitter legal to be sold in the
EU. Some countries may restrict use.
• Refer to www.ero.dk for conformity information.
6
• Try to keep the transmitter as far as way as possible
from active electronics. Attach the transmitter there-
fore to your belt or guitar strap, or use the velcro
strap to attach it elsewhere, to keep it away from
interference caused by active electronics.
7
6. Channels
You need to change channels if you are going to use
more than one stageClix unit simultaneously in the
same venue. Or to solve compatability / interference
issues with other equipment, follow this procedure:
1. When the transmitter is inserted into the
receiver and charging, press the on/off button
on the receiver once.
2. The LEDs on the receiver will start blinking
according to the table on the next page.
3. Each keypress on the button will advance one
step in the table.
4. If the button is not pressed for 3 seconds,
that particular channel setting is stored and
the unit will resume its normal charge mode.
It can then be used immediately on the new
frequency.

7. Batteries
• This system uses high quality (industrial)
NiMH cells
• These batteries do not contain heavy met-
als like mercury or lead.
• Battery life is expected to be about 5
years. Should the batteries deterioriate,
please return them and we will replace
them for a reasonable fee and dispose of
the returned batteries responsibly. Check
out www.stageclix.com for additional
information.
To recharge the transmitter, plug it into the
‘charge’ input on the front of the receiver.
After synchronising channels with the receiver
(rapidly ashing LED) the unit will go into fast
charge mode (fast blinking). This ‘fast charge
phase’ may take up to three hours, and will end
automatically.
10
Very low temperatures can cause the batter-
ies to discharge completely. If the transmitter
is exposed to low temperatures for some time,
it may be necessary to repeat the charging
process.
If the batteries are completely drained (the
transmitter doesn’t respond to the on/off
switch) it could take up to one minute before
the unit starts recharging again, after the trans-
mitter is put into the ‘charge’ input.
Channel synchronisation starts automatically
at the beginning of every charging cycle. A
completely drained battery could occasionally
cause this channel synchronisation to fail, in
which case the synchronisation procedure must
be started again to link the transmitter with
its receiver, i.e. press the on/off button on the
transmitter once.
