65. Connecting the Audio OutputThe Encore I receiver provides both a fixed mic level BALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT XLR(14) and an adjustable line level UNBALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT 1/4" JACK (13).The level from the UNBALANCED OUTPUT is controlled by the rear panel VOLUMECONTROL (6).(Note: As when making any connection, make sure the amplifier ormixing board volume is at the minimum level before plugging in the receiver to avoidpossible sound system damage. Also make sure that the phantom power on the inputof the mixer is turned OFF before making connection to the receiver.)a. Instrument Connection (using the WGT-15 instrument transmitter)Insert an audio cord with a 1/4" mono phone plug in the UNBALANCEDOUTPUT JACK (13) on the rear panel of the receiver. Plug the other end of thecord into an amplifier, effects, or mixing board. Adjust the VOLUME CON-TROL (6) on the Encore I receiver clockwise to about 3/4 rotation, until thevolume level is comfortable for your application. This setting is roughlyequivalent to a direct instrument cord connection. Turning the volume up tomaximum will provide 4dB gain over a cord.b. Microphone Connection (using the WLT-15 transmitter with either a headsetor lavalier microphone or the WHT-15 handheld microphone transmitter)For microphone use, either the BALANCED MIC AUDIO OUTPUT XLR (14) orthe 1/4" line level UNBALANCED OUTPUT (13) can be used. The XLR outputis set at a non-adjustable microphone level, similar to hardwired mic levels.Plug an XLR connector into the XLR output jack on the rear of the unit and plugthe other end into your amplifier or mixing board.(Note: Make sure thephantom power on your mixing board is turned off and the volume is turneddown when making connections.)For your convenience, the XLR output level is preset at the factory and is notadjustable with the receiver volume control. To use the 1/4" UNBALANCEDOUTPUT JACK (13), follow the instructions for the Instrument Connection(above), except start with the receiver volume at 1/2 MAX and adjust thevolume control until the volume level is optimal. If the volume control is set toohigh, you may overload your mixer or amp.12-15VDC INPUTVOLUMEBALANCED OUTUNBALANCED OUTMUTE78164 513 11 6 2 151491912101127
