T ransmitter Setup T ransmitter Setup 1. Open battery compartment, install 9 Volt battery. Make sure to observe proper battery polarity. 2. Adjust channel setting to match channel number shown on re - ceiver channel display. Replace battery cover. 3. If using bodypack transmitter, plug the microphone into the trans - mitter connector.
2. System Description The Telex FMR-10 Wireless is a series of 10 channel frequency agile UHF wireless systems that combine Telex’s legendary quality and reliability with high value. The transmitters and receivers operate in the UHF frequency range.
3. Detailed Setup Instructions 3.1 FMR-10 Receiver Setup & Operation Receiver Setup & Operation 1. Place the receiver where there is a clear line of sight to the area where the transmitter will be used. 2. Attach either the supplied 1/4-wave antennas or two remotely mounted antennas to the antenna connectors on the rear panel of the FMR-10.
CAUTION: Please make sure that the AC adapter is the cor - rect voltage for your local requirements. 4. ClearScan ™ : The FMR-10 Wireless system features ClearScan ™ . ClearScan ™ automates the process of finding a clear channel to use in setup of your FMR-10 Wireless system.
NOTE: If the system is in “lock-out”, ClearScan ™ will not fun ction. 7. Make sure the gain setting is muted or turned down on the mixer or amp channel you will connect the wireless system to. 8. Plug the audio cable (not supplied) into the output connector.
3.1.1 Rack Mount Installation 3.1.1 Rack Mount Installation The FMR-10 is supplied with rack mounts for single and double mount - ing in a standard EIA 19”/ 483mm equipment rack (see Figure 3). For rack mounting a single unit, a long and short “ear” are used.
2. Install the previously removed screws. Insert an additional screw (provided in the parts pack) into the remaining holes. Tighten all screws securely. 3. Place the two assemblies side-by-side with the mid brackets to - gether. (The left bracket should fit above the right so that the countersinks are visible).
3.1.2 Antenna Placement 3.1.2 Antenna Placement For any wireless system to perform correctly, strong RF signals are mandatory. To maximize signal strength, good antenna placement must be utilized. Although some situations prohibit perfect antenna placement, here are some guidelines: 1.
If antennas are remote-mounted, separating them 6 feet (1.8m) or more and keeping them at least 2 feet (.6m) from other barriers will improve performance (see Figure 8). If you are remote mounting the antennas and require strong signal over a large area, consider using highly directional antennas such as a log-periodic.
3.2 Handheld T ransmitter Setup 3.2 Handheld T ransmitter Setup 1. Insert battery. Slide open the hinged battery compartment cover by placing your thumb on the indents of the battery door (at the bottom of the transmitter) and gently pushing down (see Figure 9).
4. Verify Reception. When the transmitter is turned on: (FMR-10) the RF meter will illuminate, indicating that the receiver is pick - ing up the signal. If this does not happen, make sure that the trans - mitter and receiver are set to the same channels.
3.3 Bodypack T ransmitter Setup T ransmitter Setup 1. Insert battery. Open the hinged battery compartment by placing your thumb or finger on the indent labeled OPEN on the battery door and pushing down, see Figure 11. When inserting the bat - tery, pay attention to the polarity (+/-) and insert the terminals into the battery compartment first.
3. Turn on the transmitter by sliding the power switch to its on po - sition. Check the condition of the battery by watching the light below the power switch. The red battery light should flash once and then go out. If the light stays on, the battery is weak and should be replaced.
8. Adjust the transmit gain if necessary. Gently insert the pro - vided screwdriver or other 3/32-in. 2.4mm screwdriver into the gain adjustment located at the top edge of the battery compart - ment under the door (see Figure 11). The door has to be opened but not swung upward to make adjustments.
4. Guidelines/Recommendations for Best Performance Compatibility The receiver and transmitter must be set to the same channel to oper - ate together. Using Multiple Wir eless Systems Using Multiple Wi.
Multiple System Setup & Multiple System Setup & ClearScan™ ClearScan ™ is most useful for finding operating frequencies for situ - ations where no more than 2 systems will be used simultaneously. When setting up more than 2 systems, use ClearScan ™ to choose the first channel of operation.
Battery Recommendations Battery Recommendations Fresh 9-volt alkaline batteries from a quality manufacturer will yield the best performance from your FMR-10 transmitters. Rechargeable 8.4-volt Ni-cad batteries can be used, but will yield much shorter op - erational time.
