The Envoy Range
The Envoy Range of radio microphone system
components eliminates all mechanical switching by
using infra-red remote control. This allows you to
change settings, such as the frequency and audio level,
and check the status of the units, such as the battery
status and settings, even if they are not fully accessible,
such as when mounted in a camera.
Infra-red control is provided in the Envoy range of
receivers, and in the HX
iR hand-held transmitter.
The illustration opposite shows the products in the
Envoy Range.
