Setting up multiple systems utilizes the Scan – Sync functions described to the left. In
general, compatible channels for synchronized use are organized by Group. (See the
Group/Channel chart on page 31.)
Be sure all receivers and transmitters are powered OFF.
1. Power up receiver #1 and matching transmitter: Run the standard Scan and Sync
routine as described in the previous section (Quick Set Up Guide). Leave the system ON.
Move the transmitter at least 6 feet (2 meters) away from the receiver.
2. Power up receiver #2 and matching transmitter: Run the Scan and the receiver
will find a clear channel in the same Group as the previous system. Sync the transmitter to
the receiver.
Adding more systems will follow the same procedure as above.
IMPORTANT: Be sure that all transmitters are at least 6 feet (2 meters) from each other as
you set up multiple systems.
Hint: If you are using more than one frequency band, be sure to set up all systems in the

RECEIVER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Activate Menu: To activate the menu, press the SET button until GROUP˝ appears on
the display.
Scroll Through Menu: Each of the menu functions are displayed on the screen in the order
they appear in the grid above. To scroll through the menu press the UP button. Use the
DOWN button to scroll in reverse. For example, if you are on GROUP˝ and want to quickly
get to T-LOCK˝, press the DOWN button twice.
MENU FUNCTIONS
GROUP/CHANNEL
These two functions work hand-in-hand as they represent preselected frequency
coordinates. See page 31 for a table of coordinated frequencies. Each time a SCAN is

performed (by pressing and holding the UP or DOWN button), a clear Group/Channel˝
will be chosen and appear on the display. It will be one of the 207 predesignated
frequencies available in your system (see page 31). The SCAN function takes the
guesswork out of finding the best available frequency and is also handy for adding more
systems into the mix.
Group/Channel˝ can also be controlled manually from the menu. Activate the menu (see
previous page). When GROUP˝ appears, press SET. The current Group˝ will be displayed.
Press either the UP or DOWN button to scroll to another Group˝ and then press SET. The
new Group˝ will be saved and will appear on left side of the display.
Hint: The word CHANNEL˝ will appear to the upper right of the number. This means the
display is in Channel mode. The menu displays Group/Channel˝ as the default. Press the
SET button (quickly) and the Frequency˝ will appear on the screen. After 5 seconds it will
default back to Group/Channel˝. To set Frequency˝ as the default display see Display˝
(pg 18).
To change the channel, go to CHAN˝ in the menu (it’s next in line after GROUP˝) and
press SET. The current channel will be displayed. Scroll through the channels and select
the one you want, then press SET. The same applies if Frequency˝ has been selected as
the default.
LEVEL
This setting allows for additional gain control over the receiver. The factory setting is +6, a
good gain setting for Audix dynamic microphones. The VX5 condenser microphone has
much more output than a dynamic microphone and is better suited in the -6 or -9 range.
Hint: The key to a good sound with the least amount of noise and distortion is finding
the balance between the mixer, the receiver and the capsule gain. A soft singer, for
example, will require more gain on the mixer and receiver, which could potentially add
some noise into the system. Fine tuning the receiver setting can be helpful in these cases.
A loud singer, on the other hand, will require less gain and possibly a gain reduction on
the transmitter itself for control over distortion.
SQUELCH
Squelch is an important design facet of a wireless circuit. It mutes or suppresses noise
from the receiver in the absence of a desired signal. Typically, the lower the squelch, the
less signal it takes to activate the receiver. The higher or tighter the squelch, the higher
the signal required. Squelch also affects operating distance. Unless you run into extreme
conditions where you need more or less operating range than normal, we recommend
keeping the squelch around the factory setting of +15.
background
18
DISPLAY
There are two default options for the LCD screen: FREQUENCY˝ or CHAN˝. Additionally,
you have a choice of displaying either SQ˝(squelch) or LEVEL˝ settings. Activate the menu
screen and scroll to DISPLY˝. Press SET and FREQUENCY˝ will flash. Press the UP button
and CHANNEL˝ will flash. Press the UP button and SQ˝ (squelch) will flash. Press the UP
button and LEVEL˝ will flash.
Once you decide whether you want Frequency˝ or Channel˝ as the default, press SET to
save it. If you choose Frequency˝, the receiver frequency will be displayed as the default. If
you choose Channel˝, then Group/Channel˝ will be displayed as the default.
Hint: If Frequency˝ is selected as the default, then by pressing the SET button quickly, the
Group/Channel˝ info will be displayed for a few seconds. If Channel˝ is selected as the
default, then by pressing the SET button quickly, the Frequency˝ will be displayed for a
few seconds.
The option of showing either Level˝ or Squelch˝ is also available. Whatever settings
are chosen for those items will be displayed once selected and saved. Level˝ is the
factory default.
LOCK
You can lock the receiver to prevent someone from accidentally pressing SCAN, SYNC or
the POWER buttons. Once everything is set and working, this is recommended.
PILOT
This is an inaudible tone generated by the transmitter to the receiver as additional
insurance to keep the receiver from generating noise when there is no signal present.
The Pilot should be left ON and only be turned OFF temporarily if troubleshooting the
system for problems.
SCAN
The option to perform a scan for a clear channel. The Audix Performance Series Wireless
Scan feature performs a scan to find clear and open frequencies as well as compatible
frequencies when using multiple systems.
background

NAME
This function allows the receiver to be given a unique name. There are six characters
available. Scroll to the NAME˝ display on the menu and press SET. The display will move
to the first character and blink. Scroll through the characters by pressing the UP button
and there will be a choice of letters, numbers or symbols. Select the desired character and
press SET. The cursor will now move to the second position. Repeat the sequence until all
six characters are selected. Press SET to save.
Hint: Once a character is selected and set there is no way to move the cursor back. If
changes are needed, the process will have to start from the beginning.
T-LOCK
Transmitter lock. This function disables the POWER and MUTE button on the handheld
transmitter. This helps prevent the transmitter from accidentally being MUTED or turned
OFF during a performance.
Hint: The bodypack has this feature built into the menu.
IMPORTANT
After making a change to one of the menu settings above, it is important to
RE-SYNC the microphone to the receiver in order to clear the previously
saved information.
MODE
The Mode menu toggles between Channel˝ and Tune˝.
Channel˝ is the factory default setting. When in the Channel˝ mode, the receiver will au-
tomatically SCAN, SELECT, and SYNC the optimal frequency from the 207 pre-coordinated
frequencies available.
Tune˝ allows for frequencies to be selected manually in steps of .025 MHz.
To enter the Tune˝ mode, scroll to MODE˝ in the display menu and press SET twice. The
current frequency will be displayed with the first three digits flashing (for example, 545.500
with 545˝ flashing). Use the UP or DOWN button to change the number to the desired
frequency.
Hint: The numbers will only change one number at a time; holding down the button will
not speed up the process.
background
20
Once the desired frequency is displayed, press SET and the second set of three digits will
flash (for example, 546.500 with 500˝ flashing). Use the UP or DOWN button to change
the number by increments of .025. For example, if starting at 545.500, press the UP key
four times and it will read 545.600. When the desired frequency is reached, press SET and
the frequency will be saved and displayed. Now sync the transmitter to the receiver.
Hint: In the Tune mode, no group or channel is associated with the frequency. When SET
is pressed in this mode, no group or channel data is displayed. The Group, Channel and
Scan features are inactive in Tune mode. Engaging these buttons in Tune mode will result
in no changes.
Change back to the Channel mode: Activate Menu˝, scroll to MODE˝, select CHANNEL˝
and press SET twice. Doing this will take you back to the factory default setting.
Hint: Always remember to sync the transmitter following any changes to
frequency settings.
USING THE H60 HANDHELD TRANSMITTER
POWER ON/ MUTE
The button below the display powers ON the transmitter. To power OFF the transmitter,
press and hold the button for 2 seconds. A quick touch of the POWER button will MUTE
the transmitter. Another quick touch will restore signal. This is a noiseless function and is
very convenient for applications where a vocalist or presenter wants complete control of
the microphone.
LCD DISPLAY
The display indicates the frequency of the transmitter along with Group/Channel˝.
In order for the microphone to work, the frequency of the microphone must match that of
the receiver. If they do not match, go into the Sync mode (see Quick Set Up Guide, pg 6).
The same rules of acoustics that apply to a wired microphone also apply to the
handheld transmitter.
OM SERIES
The OM Series capsules are designed to maximize gain before feedback on stage. The
hypercardioid pickup pattern of the microphones are designed to reject sound from
instruments on stage. For best results, sing within a few inches of the microphone.
background
21
SETTING RF POWER OUTPUT
Choice of 10 Milliwatt or 30 Milliwatt RF transmission levels (pg 14).
VX5
The VX5 condenser microphone has a more open supercardioid pickup pattern. The
extended on-axis reach is ideal for singer/songwriters, keyboard players and vocalists who
want more freedom to work the microphone from a distance.
INTERCHANGEABLE CAPSULES
It is very easy to change a capsule assembly. Simply unscrew the capsule assembly at the
ring above the Audix logo.
Hint: Do not unscrew the grill ball as it is a separate threaded piece intended to be
removed separately from the capsule housing.
CONTROLLING DISTORTION
Audix capsules are designed to handle very high sound pressure levels without distortion.
If distortion is detected, try to minimize or eliminate it from the mixing console by turning
down the trim and gain controls. If distortion persists, there is a gain setting at the capsule.
First remove the capsule assembly. Locate the dip switch on the green PCB inside the
housing. Use a miniature screwdriver to move the switch from 0 dB to -6 or -12.
Hint: Padding the sensitivity of the capsule at the source is the most effective way to
control distortion without changing the natural sound quality or response of
the microphone.
DIP SWITCH FOR
GAIN CONTROL

USING THE B60 BODYPACK TRANSMITTER
There are three buttons that control the menu functions—SET, UP (forward) and DOWN
(backwards). The functions controlled by the buttons are RF OUTPUT, LEVEL and LOCK.
There are 3 menu functions:
RF POWER OUTPUT, LEVEL, LOCK.
RF POWER OUTPUT
This controls the level of the
RF output. LO = 10 Milliwatts or
HIGH = 30 Milliwatts.
TO SET RF POWER OUTPUT
Make sure the bodypack is turned ON. Press and hold the SET button. Press the UP
button until "RF AMP" or "RF OUTPUT" appears on the display. Press the SET button and
the display will flash, indicating the current setting, either "HIGH" or "LO" or 10mW˝ or
30mW", depending on which bodypack model version you have. Press the UP button to
toggle between HIGH = 30 milliwatt or LO = 10 milliwatt. Press SET to save the setting.
Hint: The Lo gain setting is helpful on a smaller stage with direct line of sight or in areas
with a lot of wireless congestion. It also improves battery life.
GAIN CONTROLS
There are two level settings: Line Level and Mic Level.
Mic level features three relative gain settings: 0, -6, -12.
Line level features -24 dB for active guitar or bass pickups.
TO SET LEVEL
Press and hold the SET button until LEVEL˝ appears on the display. Press the SET button
once and Mic Level (gain) or Line Level will flash. Use the UP button or DOWN button to

select either Mic or Line Level. Press the SET button again. Use the UP button or DOWN
button to select the gain level desired. Press SET and the current setting will appear. Use the
UP or DOWN button to scroll through the settings. Press SET to save the one you want.
LOCK
This disables the POWER button from being active. This prevents the bodypack from being
accidentally turned off or muted. RF Output and LEVEL are locked when the B60 is locked.
TO SET LOCK
Press and hold the SET button and use the UP or DOWN buttons until LOCK˝ appears on
the display. Press the SET button and the current setting will flash ON˝ or OFF˝. Use the
UP or DOWN button to scroll through the two options. Press SET to save the setting.
THERE ARE THREE USES FOR THE BODYPACK TRANSMITTER:
1. Lavalier microphones 2. Headworn microphones
(ADX10, L5) (HT2, HT5, HT7)
3. Sax, brass, flute and guitar
Hint: All microphones are available individually as well as with complete systems.
background
24
CONNECTOR
The bodypack uses a mini 3-pin XLR connector for all microphones. Other brands of
microphones can be used with the Audix Performance Series Wireless system; however, it
will be necessary to rewire the microphone connector to a mini 3-pin XLR (f). In this case,
note the following pin configuration:
Pin 3: Signal
Pin 2: Bias (voltage)
Pin 1: Shield
PERFORMANCE TIPS
The best position for a wireless receiver is within line of sight whenever possible.
For more complex set ups, consider extending the antenna range by using the
ANTDA4161 active antennas.
High quality batteries will provide the best results for handheld and bodypack
transmitters. Rechargeable batteries typically have a shorter usage span. It is not possible
to use two sets of transmitters simultaneously on the same frequency. It will not work.
Each time a scan and sync is performed, the transmitter will always be tuned to the current
frequency on the receiver. When using dual systems, always scan and sync each channel
independently from one another.
ANTENNAS
Both antennas must be installed in order for the diversity function to work properly.
Always attach both antennas to the receiver.
MULTIPLE SYSTEMS
It is fairly straightforward to get up to 24 channels of wireless to work simultaneously. This
is done using a standard Scan and Sync method, adding one system. The systems will stay
in the same Group until the group maxes out its channel selection. At this point, it may be
necessary to manually select a different Group for additional pre-coordinated channels. More
experienced users may use the Tune mode to manually set up their frequency selections.
