Guided Tour - SR5 / ST5

1:  Input connector - The input device is connected here.  The ST5 is supplied with either
a lavaliere, headset microphone or heavy-duty instrument cable terminating with a 1/4"
plug, which are all connected to the transmitter via a locking 3.5mm mini-phone jack. 

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 SR5 or ST5 is powered on (see #5
on the next page).  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:  Audio on-off switch - When set to the “on” position, audio signal is transmitted.
When set to the “off” position, the audio signal is muted.  Because the carrier 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 transmitter for extended periods, turn off the
transmitter power by using the power on-off switch (see #5 on the next page).

4:  Battery door release - Press gently inwards on these two indents in order to open the
battery door of the ST5L or ST5 and access the Power on-off switch (see #5 on the next
page) and Gain control (see #6 on the next page).
