11. When first setting up the XP40iw System in a new environment, it’s always a
good idea to do a walk-around in order to make sure that coverage is provided
for your entire performance area. Accordingly, turn down the level of your audio
system and turn on both the transmitter and receiver. Then, with the transmitter
unmuted, restore the level of your audio system and while speaking or singing,
walk through the entire area that will need to be covered. As you do so, the
“RF” LED on the rear panel of the XP40iw should always remain lit. Always try to
minimize the distance between transmitter and receiver as much as possible so that
the strongest possible signal is received from all planned transmission points. In
fixed installations such as A/V or corporate conference rooms or for extended range
applications (where the transmitter and receiver are more than 150 feet apart), it
may be desirable to angle the receiver antenna differently from its vertical position
or to install the receiver in the same room as the transmitters (and, if necessary, to
extend the wiring to remote audio equipment).
If you have followed all the steps above and are experiencing difficulties, contact your
local distributor or, if purchased in the United States, call Samson Technical Support
(1-800-372-6766) between 9 AM and 5 PM EST.
