Putting the receiver into operation
12
Connect the rod antennas
 to the BNC sockets
.
Daisy-chaining receivers
The receivers feature an integrated antenna splitter so that up to 
8 receivers can be daisy-
chained without any additional antenna splitters being required. Only daisy-chain receivers
from the same frequency range (see page 4).
Connect the two supplied rod antennas or two remote antennas (optional accessories) to
the BNC sockets
Use BNC cables to daisy-chain the receivers as shown in the diagram on the left.
Connecting an amplifier/mixing console
The receiver’s XLR-3M socket
 and the ¼” (6.3 mm) jack socket
 are connected in parallel.
Use a suitable cable to connect the amplifier and/or the mixing console to the XLR-3M
socket
 and/or the ¼” (6.3 mm) jack socket
 (see also page 39).
Via the operating menu of the receiver, adjust the audio output level to the input of the
amplifier or mixing console (see page 18). The adjusted audio output level is common for
both sockets.
Connecting receivers in a network
You can connect several receivers in a network. The receivers are remote controlled via a PC
running the “
Wireless Systems Manager
” (WSM) software. This software will assist in the
quick and safe configuration of multi-channel systems (see page 31).
Use standard network cables (at least Cat 5) to connect the receivers via the LAN
socket
 to an Ethernet switch. Then connect the Ethernet switch to a PC (see diagram).
When a receiver is properly connected to the Ethernet switch or the PC, the yellow LED
at the rear of the receiver lights up.

• To supply an active directional antenna, a direct voltage (which cannot be
switched off) is output via the antenna sockets
 of the receivers.
• In order to obtain a good reception quality, we recommend not to daisy-chain
more than 
8 receivers.
• If you set a daisy-chained receiver to 
standby mode 
on/off” on page 14), the integrated antenna splitter remains active.
