[. . . ] The second audio channel allows you to transmit an individual audio signal (e. g. Using the balance setting on the receiver, you can then adjust the relative levels of the sum of all audio signals and the individual audio signal. For this, the transmitter has to be set to stereo mode and the receiver to Focus mode.

The transmitters 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. The "Wireless Systems Manager" (WSM) software can be downloaded from the corresponding product page on our website at www. sennheiser. com. Stereo Transmitter SR 3 FREQ Range-D 780-822 MHz IDENT NO 627925 SER NO 2518100155 IC 2099A-G3SREK Connect a standard network cable (at least Cat 5) to the LAN socket ¸ of the transmitter. When a transmitter is properly connected to the Ethernet switch or the PC, the yellow LED µ at the rear of the transmitter lights up. For further information on network operation using the WSM software, refer to page 27.

Open the battery compartment by pushing the two catches ¸ in the direction of the arrows and open the cover µ. Insert the two batteries or the accupack as shown above. Please observe correct polarity when inserting the batteries/accupack. Close the battery compartment by pressing on the center of the cover µ. Do not continuously expose yourself to high volumes. To monitor the audio signal via the headphone output of the diversity receiver: Connect earphones with a 3. 5 mm stereo jack plug to the headphone output ·. When switching the receiver on, slowly and carefully turn the volume control ³ clockwise. Via the receiver's operating menu (see page 24), adjust: ­ stereo or Focus operation ("Mode" menu item) ­ the balance ("Balance" menu item) ­ the treble boost ("High Boost" menu item) ­ the limiter ("Limiter" menu item) · The ground connection of the earphones cable serves as the second antenna for adaptive diversity operation. To monitor the audio signal via the headphone output of the transmitter: Set the headphone volume control · to the minimum position. Stereo Transmitter Connect headphones with a ¼" (6. 3 mm) stereo jack plug to the headphone output ³. Gradually increase the volume and monitor the audio signal with the lowest possible volume. ³ · 17 Using the devices Selecting a standard display on the diversity receiver ESC Press the ESC button to select a standard display.

Deactivating the lock mode temporarily You can activate or deactivate the automatic lock mode via the "Auto Lock" menu item. If the lock mode is activated, you have to temporarily deactivate it In order to be able to operate the devices: SR 300 IEM G3 transmitter Press the jog dial. The lock mode is temporarily deactivated: · When you are in the operating menu, the lock mode remains deactivated until you exit the operating menu. · When a standard display is shown, the lock mode is automatically activated after 10 seconds.

Select "Stereo" if you want to transmit two separate audio signals on channel I and channel II (e. g. channel I = audio signal of the presenter/musician, channel II = sum of all audio signals). Make sure that the receiver's pilot tone evaluation ("Pilot Tone" menu item) is activated. [. . . ] Reduce the distance between transmitter and receiving antennas. RF signal is deactivated ("RF Mute") RF signal available, no audio signal, "MUTE" appears on the display panel Transmitter is muted Receiver's squelch threshold is adjusted too high Transmitter is set to mono operation and therefore doesn't transmit a pilot tone Transmitter is set to stereo operation and therefore transmits a pilot tone Audio signal has a high Transmitter sensitivity is level of background adjusted too low noise Audio signal is distorted Transmitter sensitivity is adjusted too high No access to a certain channel Activate the RF signal (see page 19). Deactivate the pilot tone evaluation. Activate the pilot tone evaluation. Adjust the transmitter sensitivity correctly. Adjust the transmitter sensitivity correctly.
