NOTE: The instructions below need to be repeated one at a time for each WMS400 system you are adding. Before
you start, you must turn on all the existing UHF wireless microphone transmitters and receivers you already have
installed (if any). Proceed with the instructions below, for the first new WMS400 system, then the second, third, etc.
Each time you have finished one system leave the transmitter and receiver turned ON while you program the next one.
1) Press the On/Off switch on the SR 400 receiver to turn it on. DO NOT turn on the transmitter yet. On the display
you should see "NAME" GROUP" and "CHANNEL" across the top of the LCD Display and ""FREQ" and "LOCK"
on the bottom.
2) Press and hold the Setup button until the "LOCK" indicator disappears (about 2 seconds). NOTE: For all the
instructions below, when instructed to press the setup button, press and release it quickly, do not hold it.
3) Press the Back button and the display should read "AUTO" with "CHANNEL" at the top. Press Back again to
display "GROUP".
4) Press Setup and the display should read No Ch 1. Use the Forward and Back buttons to set the number to the total
number of UHF wireless microphone systems you will be using. For example, if you already have three WMS81
wireless systems and you are adding two WMS400 systems, set the number to 5.
5) Press the Setup button again. The "NAME" indicator will flash and two letters will flash below the name. Press
and release the Forward button until the NAME reads "CA" (for Canada).
6) Press the Setup button and the receiver will scan for used frequencies and program itself for the next available
channel. The display will flash CA and numbers under "GROUP" and "CHANNEL".
7) Press Setup, and the display will read SAVE - Y. Press Setup to save the program.
8) Now the display will flash "PROG IR". It is now ready to program the transmitter.
9) Slide the switch on the PT400 receiver to the MUTE/PRG position (mid) . If you accidentally turn it to ON, turn it
off and try again. Hold the PT400 Beltpack Transmitter 1 - 2 inches in front of the SR400 receiver so that the IR Uplink
on the receiver is directly in line with the IR sensor on the Transmitter, then press the Setup button on the receiver.
10) The display on the receiver should now read IR OK. If it says IR ERR, press Setup and it will say RETRY, if this
is the case you need to try it again by repeating step 9 above.
11) Press and Hold the Setup button on the receiver to LOCK it, then slide the switch on the transmitter to ON. The
green OK light on the receiver should illuminate, and you are done. If you have more than one WMS400 system,
repeat the procedure for each one. Be sure to leave the ones you have programmed ON while you set up each
additional system.
