If the mixer / amp is a 1/4" phone jack, connect a cable from the 1/4" unbalanced audio output from the receiver. + The 1/4" output can be set to either mic line level using Gnd the MIC LINE SWITCH (12) If the mixer has an XLR input, connect a cable from the balanced XLR audio output from the receiver to the mixer input. (Note: As when making any connection, make sure the amplifier or mixing board volume is at the minimum level before plugging in the receiver to avoid possible sound system damage. ) Receiver Volume The UP or DOWN buttons on the front panels serve as the Volume Controls of the receiver. The normal VOLUME setting is 13 for one-to-one unity gain.

If there is audio output from the receiver when your transmitter is OFF, adjust the squelch control so the system will receive the signal from your transmitter but squelch or eliminate the unwanted background RF noise. This adjustment can cause a reduction in usable range of the wireless transmitter, so set the control to the lowest position that reliably mutes the unwanted RF signal.
