1. WARNINGS AND INSTALLATION
CAUTION: before switching on or off, make certain the sound system's amplifiers are off: this will avoid signal peaks,
which are annoying and sometimes dangerous (particularly for speaker enclosures).
Connecting and preventing or identifying interference
First of all, check that the apparatus is installed in a place free from industrial or RF (radio frequency) interference.
Avoid installing your equipment very near radio or TV sets, mobile phones, etc., as these can cause noisy interference.
When connecting the other parts of your sound system, watch out for the so-called "round loops", which could cause
hum and jeopardize the products's excellent Sound-to-Noise and low distortion characteristics. The best way (even
if not always feasible) to avoid ground loops is to connect the electric ground of all the equipment to a single central
point ("star" system). In this case, the central point can be the mixer.
Don't force knobs or switches: these are designed and manufactured to respond to light pressure and could be
damaged if used with excessive force.
Take care of your connector cables, a very frequent cause of small/big problems. Always grip them by the connector,
avoid pulling them forcefully and wind them without forming knots or sharp bends: they'll last longer this way, and be
more reliable, which is a definite advantage.
Avoid exposing the product to strong direct sunlight, high temperatures or intense vibrations, in very dusty or particularly
damp surroundings or, even worse, in the rain: this will help to avoid the risk of faulty operation, deterioration or even
electric shocks and fires.
The product is built in shock-resistant material. Nevertheless, protect it during transport with a flight-case to avoid the
risk of any casual accidents.
When you've finished using the apparatus, it's always advisable to protect it from dust, but any dust that does form
should be removed using a cloth or a soft brush. Never use alcohol, acetone or any solvents. The unit does not
require any other maintenance.
In the event of breakdown
All user-adjustable parts are external and easily accessed.
In the event of a breakdown, do not open the apparatus, but contact the nearest TOPP PRO Service Centre.
Connection to the mains supply
The unit is supplied with an external power supply. Before switching on the unit, make certain that the mains voltage
matches that shown on the power supply (a tolerance of up to ±10% is acceptable).

2. INTRODUCTION
TMW-8000R/T/P is an efficient, high-quality wireless microphone system, with a user-friendly control set. The use of
the UHF band (780-865MHz) enables the majority of interference problems afflicting lower bands to be overcome.
Shorter waves are less susceptible to reflection, so they tend to saturate the area around the transmitter better. The UHF
band is therefore more suited to critical situations (stages or clubs with a lot of lights and amplifiers) where reflections
can cause problems for VHF sound waves.
The transmitter/receiver frequency has been pre-set on our premises and it is showed:
on the products package;
on the rear panel of the receiver;
on the battery space inside the hanheld microphone;
on the back of the bodypack transmitter.
The TMW-8000R/T/P receiver has two antennas and it makes use of the SWITCHING DIVERSITY technology. This
technology enables greater reliability and coverage than single antenna systems. In real time, the circuitry automatically
selects the antenna receiving the best signal, reducing breakdown and interference risks. Switching between the two
antennas, controlled by an opto-coupler, is immediate and totally noisefree.
The system TMW-8000R/T/P comprises a receiver and transmitters.

ENGLISH
The transmitters are powered by normal alkaline batteries. The circuitry has been designed to reduce current
absorption to a minimum, ensuring longer operating times at considerably lower costs.
The receiver is powered by a normal 12V external power supply.

3. Getting Started
To use the TMW-800R/T/P wireless microphone system immediately, just carry out the following simple
procedure:
Connect the receiver audio output to the line input of a mixer or an amplifier.
Connect the power supply to the DC IN socket and switch on the unit.
Adjust the Squelch control until any interference is eliminated, obtaining an output signal free from
background noise.
Switch on the transmitter (first fitting the batteries if they're not already installed).
Adjust receiver output volume and (if a bodypack transmitter is being used) transmitter volume.
Use the LED displays on the front panel to optimize input and output levels.

This control is factory preset for adjusting SQ noise. If you find the receiver already has been jammed by
outside signal, please adjust SQ control till the jamming signal disappears before you turn on the
microphone power switch. (Counterclockwise)
When installing a new battery, turn off the microphone by setting the switch at OFF.
Use only 9V alkaline batteries.
Good quality batteries normally last on average 6-8 hours.
This switch is used to turn the microphone ON/OFF. For longer battery life, please turn off the
microphone when it is not in use.
This LED indicates when the power is on, it also indicates the battery status.
If the LED doesn't light up when the microphone is switched on, replace the battery.

6. Connections
The receiver is fitted with two different format outputs: the first has a balanced XLR connector, the
second a normal unbalanced Jack socket.
TMW-8000R
BALANCED XLR-M connector
UNBALANCED JACK connector
The receiver has line-level outputs. The receiver's output must therefore be connected to one of the mixer's
line inputs.
When a bodypack transmitter is used with a guitar or bass, the receiver's output can be connected to the line
input of a guitar or bass processor. To connect directly to the instrument's amplifier, use the line input (if there
is one) or the input with the lowest possible gain, normally indicated as "Low Input" or something similar.
