the mixer, and connect
Receiver #1 to the XLR
input of the left main
loudspeaker. When you
power them on, set them
both to the same channel.
Then, connect Transmitter
#2 to the right main XLR
output of the mixer, and
connect Receiver #2 to the
XLR input of the right main
loudspeaker. When you
power them on, set them
both to the same channel,
channel than set #1.
For mono PA/DJ systems,
connect Transmitter #1 to
the mono main XLR output
of the mixer, and connect
Receiver #1 to the XLR input
of one of the main
loudspeakers. When you
power them on, set them
both tothe same channel.
Then, connect Receiver #2 to
the XLR input of the second
main loudspeaker. When
you power it on, set it to the
same channel as set #1. Both
speakers will receive the
same mono signal.

Tips and Methods to improve the performance
of the wireless system
1) Keep more than 3 meters distance between the U3
receiver and other transmitters such as Wi-Fi routers.
2) If you experience interference from Wi-Fi devices in the
vicinity, try changing to a dierent channel on the U3
transmitter and receiver.
3) If necessary, shorten the distance between the U3
receiver and transmitter.

2.4 Ghz Frequency Tables
The U3 operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band, the same band
used by Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and other wireless systems. 2.4 GHz
is an open band and as such does not require a license to
operate worldwide.
U2 channels 1-4 use the same frequencies as U3/U3C/U4
channels 1-4. A maximum of six U2/U3/U3C and U4 sets
can be used at the same time.

ISSUE
• Make sure that the U3 Transmitter and Receiver are set to the same channel.
• Check that the U3 Receiver's RF LED is on.
• Check that the microphone is properly connected to the U3 Transmitter, and turned on if necessary
• Check that the Transmitter and Receiver power switches are both turned on.
• Note: Receivers can be paired with only one Transmitter at a time.
• Make sure the input/gain mode is correctly set to “Line”
(for an audio device such as a mixer) or “Mic” (for a microphone).
• Adjust the output signal from the transmitting device (turn up if too faint, turn down if distorting)
• See “Tips and methods to improve wireless system performance” on page 17
• The channel switch locks after 15 seconds. Double-click the channel button to unlock and reset.
• One transmitter can connect with two or more receivers;
but receivers can only accept signal from one transmitter.
