Guided Tour - HT5
1: Audio on-off switch - When set to the “on” posi-
tion, audio signal is transmitted. When set to the “off”
position, the audio signal is muted. Because the car
-
rier signal remains during muting, no “pop” or “thud”
will be heard. Note that turning this off does
not
turn off the transmitter power—it is simply a way to
temporarily mute the transmission of audio signal. If
you don’t plan on using the HT5 for extended periods,
turn off its power by using the power on-off switch
(see #3 below).
2: Battery level meter - This set of three multicolor
LEDs indicates relative battery power, indicating
whether the installed battery is at low (red), mid
(yellow) or high (green) strength. One or more of
these will light whenever the HT5 is powered on (see
#3 below). When all three are lit, the battery is at
maximum strength. When only the red “low” indicator
lights, RF performance is degraded and the battery
needs to be replaced.
3: Power on-off switch* - Use this to turn the HT5 on
or off (to conserve battery power, be sure to leave it
off when not in use).
4: Gain control (trimpot) - This input sensitivity con
-
trol has been factory preset to provide optimum level
for the particular microphone capsule provided with
your Stage 55 Series or Stage 5 Series system and so we recommend that this not be adjusted
manually. If necessary, however, you can use the supplied plastic screwdriver to raise or lower
the input level. See the “Setting Up and Using Your Stage 55 Series / STAGE 5 Series System” sec
-
tion on page 12 in this manual for more information.
5: Battery holder - Insert a standard 9-volt alkaline battery here, being sure to observe the
plus and minus polarity markings shown. We recommend the Duracell MN 1604 type battery.
Although rechargeable Ni-Cad batteries can be used, they do not supply adequate current for
more than four hours. WARNING: Do not insert the battery backwards; doing so can cause
severe damage to the HT5 and will void your warranty.
* Be sure to mute the audio signal at your external mixer or amplifier before turning transmitter
power on or off, or an audible pop may result.
