Lamp indications

The lamp lights, blinks or goes out according to the state of the devices and communication as follows.

: Lit in green / : Lit in orange / : Lit in blue /: Lit in red /: Lit in white / ‐: Unlit

Power lamp/(power) lamp

  • The power has just been turned on.

    (Lit in green)*

  • The receiver is turned off.

    • Receiver

      ‐ (Unlit)

    • Microphone

      (Lit in green)*

  • The microphone is turned off.

    • Receiver

      (Lit in green)*

    • Microphone

      ‐ (Unlit)

  • The built-in battery is running out of power.

    (Blinks twice in orange, and then stays lit in green.)

  • The built-in battery is almost worn out.

    (Stays blinking in orange)

  • The built-in battery is charging.

    (Lit in orange)

* While the USB Type-C port is used, the power lamp/(power) lamp stays lit in orange.

LINK lamp

  • The power has just been turned on.

    • Receiver

      ‐ (Unlit (on standby))*1

    • Microphone

      ‐‐‐‐(Blinking slowly in blue (on standby))*1 *2

  • A connection is established and clear audio recording is possible.

    • Receiver

      (Lit in blue)

    • Microphone

      (Lit in blue)*2

  • The receiver is turned off.

    • Receiver

      ‐ (Unlit)

    • Microphone

      ‐‐‐‐(Blinking slowly in blue (on standby))*1 *2

  • The microphone is turned off.

    • Receiver

      ‐ (Unlit (on standby))*1

    • Microphone

      ‐ (Unlit)

  • Audio is interrupted due to bad communication conditions.

    • Receiver

      (Blinking in blue (The faster the blinking speed, the worse the communication conditions.))*3

    • Microphone

      (Blinking in blue (The faster the blinking speed, the worse the communication conditions.))*2 *3

  • The built-in battery is charging.

    ‐ (Unlit)

*1 When the lamp stays in this state for 5 minutes, the auto power-off function of this unit is activated. Turn off this unit, and then turn it back on.

*2 When a wired connection is made with the microphone for audio recording, the LINK lamp stays unlit.

*3 Check the LINK lamps on the receiver and the microphone for the communication state.
Due to some surrounding factors, including poor radio conditions and a high number of obstacles between the receiver and the microphone, the communication state between the two devices may deteriorate, causing audio interruptions or noises. If this is the case, the LINK lamps blink in blue. Make sure that the two devices are located appropriately apart from each other, there are no obstacles between them, and the LINK lamps are steadily lit in blue before you use the receiver and the microphone.

(mute) lamp (Microphone)

  • The microphone is not in mute mode.

    ‐ (Unlit)

  • The microphone is in mute mode.

    (Lit in red)

Indicator lamps (Microphone)

  • Level meter mode

    Default indication. The number of lit indicator lamps varies according to the recording volume level.

    Adjust the recording volume level by turning the AUDIO LEVEL dial while monitoring the indicator lamps, or adjust the distance between the audio source and the microphone.

    • In the event that sounds are picked at the normal volume level: Adjust the recording volume level so that none of the indicator lamps would light in orange.

    • In the event that sounds are picked at an extremely loud volume level: Adjust the recording volume level so that the top indicator lamp would not light in red.

  • Headphone volume adjustment mode

    Indication of the indicator lamps after the headphone volume/mixing ratio adjustment dial is briefly pressed.

    ‐ ‐ ‐ ‐ ‐ (Some indicator lamps are lit in orange according to the volume level of the headphones. This indicates that the more the number of the orange-lit indicator lamps, the higher the output audio volume ratio for the headphones.)

  • Mixing ratio adjustment mode

    Indication of the indicator lamps after the headphone volume/mixing ratio adjustment dial is pressed and held for about 2 seconds.

    ‐ ‐ ‐ ‐ ‐‐ ‐ ‐ ‐ ‐ (Some indicator lamps above and below the white-lit middle indicator lamp are lit in orange according to the input volume level of the audio from the microphone and that of the audio from the computer or smartphone via the USB connection. The orange-lit indicator lamps above the white-lit middle indicator lamp indicate that the output audio volume ratio for the microphone is higher.)
