Transmitter Setup

Battery Selection and Installation

Each transmitter uses two 1.5V AA batteries, not included.

Alkaline type is recommended. Always replace both batteries.

Make certain the transmitter power is Off before replacing 

batteries.

UniPak™ Transmitter Battery Installation

1. Slide off the battery cover as shown in Figure E.

2.

Observe correct polarity as marked inside the battery

compartment, 

and carefully insert two fresh 1.5V AA 

alkaline batteries.

3. Replace the Battery cover (Figure.E)

Figure E

Figure F

Handheld Transmitter Battery Installation

1. While holding the upper part of the transmitter body just

below the ball-screen, unscrew the lower body cover and 

slide downward to remove and expose battery 

compartment.

2.

Be certain to observe correct polarity as marked inside 

the battery compartment

(Figure G) and carefully insert

two fresh 1.5V AA alkaline batteries. Make certain the 

batteries are fully seated in the battery compartment.

3. Replace the lower body cover. 

Do not overtighten.

Figure H

Battery Condition Indicator

The Green Battery condition indicator(Figure I/ J) should light

strongly with a fresh battery. As the battery weakens, the 

indicator will glow Red. When the Indicator becomes Red, there

is little life left in the battery. Replace it at once for continued

operation of the transmitter.

Battery Save Switch

ATW-T161 Transmitter features RF Lo / Hi Power switch 

(Figure E). As supplied, the switch is set in the Lo (Low) 

position for the maximum battery life. Hi(High) position can be

selected for maximum range (Note range decreases when the

switch is set at Lo position.)

Special Note: If accessing de-regulated frequencies between

863 to 865MHz(Ch. C to F), ATW-T161 must be set to RF

Low.

UniPak Transmitter Input Connection

Connect an audio input device (microphone or guitar cable)

to the audio input connector on the bottom of the transmitter.

A number of Audio-Technica professional microphones and

cables are available separately, pre-terminated with a UniPak

input connector (see “Optional System Accessories” on

page 9).

Transmitting Antenna

The UniPak transmitter includes a permanently-attached 

flexible antenna. For best results, allow the antenna to hang

freely and full length from the bottom of the transmitter. If the

received signal is marginal, experiment with different transmit-

ter positions on your body or instrument; or try repositioning 

the receiver. 

Do not attempt to remove, replace or change

the length of the transmitting antenna.

The antenna for the ATW-T162 and ATW-T163 handheld

transmitters are located at the bottom of the units. For the

best results, hold the Microphone naturally around the

centre of the body.

Holding or otherwise covering antenna housing  may affect

operating range.
