 Display

The contents of the display before the unit enters menu operation (top display) are described below. Since the top display 
shows information contained in the metadata sent from the transmitter as well as the receiver settings and status, this can 
be used for operation monitoring.

The display contents of receiver channel 1 and 2 are the same. The display of receiver channel 1 is used for illustration 
purposes.

a

QL (signal quality level) indicator

Lights green when the quality of the received data is 
normal, and lights red when the number of bars lit for the 
QL meter decreases.

b

QL (signal quality level) meter

Indicates the quality of data that is received.
This meter allows you to monitor RF signal deterioration 
that may occur when there is signal interference or when 
the transmitter is too far from the receiver.

c

Receiver channel number

Indicates the receiver channel number.

d

Cross Remote condition indicator

Indicates the signal transmission condition of the wireless 
remote control function (four levels).

 

When the wireless remote control function is off, this 
indication does not appear.

e

Digital output sync indicator

Indicates sync status of the signal output from the 
DIGITAL OUT connectors.

INT: 

Output signal is in sync with the internal clock.

EXT: 

Output signal is in sync with the signal input from 

the WORD SYNC IN connector.

f

AF/PEAK (audio signal peak) indicator

Lights up green when the audio signal exceeding 
reference level is input to the transmitter. Lights up red 
when the audio signal exceeding –3 dBFs is input to the 
A/D converter on the transmitter.

g

Audio level meter

Indicates the level of audio signal input to the transmitter.
The segments indicating below the reference input level 
of the transmitter appear dimly.

When “MIC” is set for the reference input level on the 
transmitter: 

Segments indicating –36 dBFs or below 

appear dimly.

When “LINE” is set for the reference input level on 
the transmitter: 

Segments indicating –20 dBFs or below 

appear dimly.

h

BATT (battery warning) indicator

Lights green when the remaining battery charge on the 
transmitter is sufficient, and lights red when the 
remaining battery indicator starts blinking.

i

Remaining battery indicator

Indicates the remaining battery charge of the transmitter 
according to the transmitter’s indicator information that is 
received via metadata.
Replace both batteries when the battery indication starts 
to flash.
