Input Overload
The OVERLOAD message appears when the audio input experiences a high-level signal. The power LED turns red as an
additional indicator of an overload. Reduce the input signal or enable the input pad to remove the overload condition.
Tip: To enable the input pad, navigate to Audio > Pad and select -12 dB.
Matching Audio Levels with Mic Offset
When linking two or more transmitters to a receiver, there may be a difference in volume levels between microphones or
instruments. If this occurs, use the Offset function to match the audio levels and eliminate audible volume differences between
transmitters. If using a single transmitter, set Offset to 0 dB.
Turn on the first transmitter and perform a sound check to test the audio level. Turn off the transmitter when finished.
Turn on the second transmitter and perform a sound check to test the audio level. Repeat for any additional
transmitters.
If there is an audible difference in the sound level between the transmitters, navigate to the Offset menu (Audio >
Offset) in the transmitter to increase or decrease the Offset in realtime to match the audio levels.
