4000 & 5000 Series Professional UHF Wireless Systems

System Operation

Artist Elite

wireless receivers and transmitters are extremely

versatile components with many operating features and functions,

some of which are not obvious. As a result, we suggest the following

approaches to assure a “comfort level” with any new equipment:

1. Begin using a single receiver/transmitter pair at their Default

(“DEF”) settings, to become familiar with equipment functions

and operation before doing any customizing. (If the Default

frequency is not usable in your area, change the frequency to one

that is suitable.)

2. Before installing/starting up a large multi-channel system, explore

the functions and operation of only two or three receiver/

transmitter pairs together.

The details of setting up and operating a multi-channel system vary

greatly in complexity, depending upon the number of receivers and

nature of the system. Because the feature-rich nature of AEW units

can greatly increase this complexity, we suggest starting with a

simpler, straightforward setup and use to become familiar with the

equipment and its capabilities.

Single AEW-R4100 receiver system: Begin using a receiver and

transmitter at their Default (“DEF”) settings, to become familiar with

equipment functions and operation before doing any customizing.

(If the Default frequency is not usable in your area, manually change

only the frequency to one that is suitable.)

Single AEW-R5200 receiver system (two channels): Start out

using only Channel 1, treating this the same as the single

AEW-R4100 above.

Multiple-receiver system with link cables only: The link cables

provide data and control between receivers. The IntelliScan™ feature

scans for clear channels and assigns non-conflicting frequencies to all

linked receivers. (If IntelliScan is not used, the receiver frequencies

may all be set individually/manually, as with any standard receiver,

selecting frequencies that are within the same IntelliScan groups

listed on page 25.)

Multiple-receiver system with Ethernet-connected computer

interface: Refer to the separate Artist Elite Wireless Control Interface

manual for setup and operation of a computer-based system; the

Artist Elite Wireless Control Interface manual is furnished with

5000 Series wireless systems both as a printed document and on

CD in PDF form. Basic hardware aspects of the receivers, and all

transmitter setup/operating information, are in the manual you are

now reading.

Turning on the Receiver

Turn down the AF Level of the mixer or amplifier. Switch on the

receiver. Do not switch on the transmitter yet. The Alert indicator and

the LCD window lights up; the normal operation LCD display appears

after 1–2 seconds. If any of the bars show in the “RF” bar-graph

meters, there may be RF interference in the area. If this occurs, select

another frequency as explained below. (If the Meter Hold function has

been selected, one of the RF bars in each column will be flashing,

indicating the lowest RF levels received.)

Selecting/Setting Receiver Frequency

Selection of the desired operating frequency is made through

the function menus. There must be no local interference on that

frequency. If the Default frequency (lowest in band) happens not to

be usable, the receiver frequency may be set manually, or by using

the IntelliScan function.

• Manual frequency selection: Adjust the receiver frequency as

detailed in the next section.

• IntelliScan™ frequency selection: The receiver’s IntelliScan

function may be employed to select a usable operating

frequency automatically, as detailed in the section following

on page 22.

Note: Once the receiver frequency is set, the associated transmitter

must be set manually to the receiver’s exact frequency. See page 23

for the correct procedure.

Setting Receiver Frequency Manually

Touch: A momentary press of the Mode/Set button. It is used

to enter Menu mode, to enter Edit mode, or to Escape

without making any changes to current settings.

Hold: A press and hold (about two seconds) of the Mode/

Set button. It is used to accept a new setting when

the receiver is in Edit mode or to save the current

settings to one of the five user-defined name

presets or the internal memory location (“NAME?”).

1. Touch the Mode/Set button once. “FRQ” appears on the first line

of the LCD window with the current frequency setting on the

second line. (The receiver is now in Menu mode.)

2. Touch the Mode/Set button again. The small flashing word

“EDIT” appears at the bottom of the window. (The receiver is

now in Edit mode.)

3. Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to change the first three digits

(MHz) to the desired frequency. Choose a frequency appropriate

for your area, avoiding frequencies with active TV channels. Press

either arrow for single steps, or hold down either arrow for rapid

cycling through the band. Frequencies “wrap around” to the other

end of the range when the top or bottom of the band is reached.

4. Touch the Mode/Set button once to set the first three digits to

the desired frequency.

5. Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to change the second three

digits (kHz) to the desired frequency. Again, be certain to choose

a frequency appropriate for your area, avoiding frequencies with

active TV channels.

6. To activate this frequency selection, hold the Mode/Set button

until the word “STORED” appears in the receiver’s window. (If

you do not wish to complete this particular selection, just touch

the Mode/Set button once. The word “ESCAPE” will appear

briefly in the window and the receiver will return to the

Menu mode.)
