[. . . ] 005389 SKM 3072-U RF Wireless Systems | 3000 Series Hand-Held Transmitters The SKM 3072-U is Sennheiser's 3000 series UHF radiomicrophone for stage and broadcasting use. Two interchangeable super-cardioid condenser microphone heads make the SKM 3072-U extremely flexible to use: while the ME 3005 e microphone head is the ideal choice for vocals and close-miking, the ME 3005 head has been tailored to speech and presentations, which generally involve greater microphone distances. The SKM 3072-U radiomicrophone is matched to all 3000 series UHF receivers and is, of course, also fully compatible to the 5000 series receivers, thus making the range of possible applications almost unlimited. Up to 32 switchable UHF transmission frequencies within a switching bandwidth of max. 32 MHz give the highest flexibility, enabling you to go "on air" without problems. In addition, the SKM 3072-U uses Sennheiser's special HiDyn plusTM noise reduction system, which ensures optimum sound quality even under difficult transmission conditions. The POWER button of the SKM 3072-U (situated in a recess at the tip of the antenna section) can be locked electronically. By activating the lock mode, any accidental switching off is prevented. The benefits of the SKM 3072-U radiomicrophone do not only include excellent transmission reliability, transparent sound and professional features, but also ease of use and a user-friendly, menu-assisted operation. The menu controls are protected by a lockable and interchangeable colour-coded identification cap. The SKM 3072-U comes complete with 8 of these caps, their different colours help dif ferentiate between transmitters when you are using several SKM 3072-U simultaneously. To access the menu controls, unlatch the protective cap by pressing the lock "button" at the bottom, then pull the cap off (see drawing at the bottom right). The three controls are located in a slot at the top of the antenny section. 255 mm 50 mm SKM 3072-U dimensions 1 2 3 5 1 SET button for menu selection and storage 2 button for adjusting the settings of a menu 3 button for adjusting the settings of a menu 4 POWER button (on/off) 5 LC display for frequency/channel, sensitivity, battery status and lock mode Operating controls With the menu controls, you can also choose one of the 32 pre-programmed transmission frequencies and assign it a channel number between 001 and 255. The currently selected transmission frequency ­ or its respective channel number ­ is continuously indicated on the multi-function LC display. If you wish to check the transmission frequency without actually transmitting (for example, in case of possible interference to another user) remove the microphone head before turning the transmitter on. The frequency can then be read without transmitting any signal. Once the transmitter has been set to the required frequency, the microphone head Unlocking and removing the protective identification cap A B 4 With the SET and and buttons you are able to adjust the radiomicrophone's sensitivity, select a transmission frequency and assign it a channel number. You can also activate and deactivate the lock mode. The SKM 3072-U can be set to four different sensitivities, selectable in steps of 10 dB (from ­30 dB to 0 dB). The sensitivity can be adjusted directly on the switched on microphone. [. . . ] When you are using an EM 3031-U, EM 3032-U, EM 3532-U, EK 3041-U or EM 1046 as a receiver, it will also display the battery status of the SKM 3072-U. When the "Low Batt" warning starts flashing, the transmitter battery will only last for approximately 10 more minutes of operation. As the antenna of the SKM 3072-U has been integrated into the microphone body, you should pay special attention to not clasp this part of the mic with both hands or press it against your body. If you do this, the transmitter's range will be drastically reduced.
