Using the SKM 9000
With some microphone heads, the upper part of the sound
inlet basket can be unscrewed. To fully unscrew the micro-
phone head, always hold it as shown.
For an overview of suitable microphone heads, refer to the
table on page 6.
When unscrewing the microphone head 1during opera-
tion, the muting function is automatically activated.
Before using your radio microphone, ask the relevant wire-
less regulatory authority for the exact frequency alloca-
tions and apply for an individual license if necessary.
The supplied supplement “Framework requirements and
restrictions on frequency usage” provides an overview of
the different European framework requirements and
restrictions on frequency usage. If there is no entry in the
supplement, ask the relevant wireless regulatory authority
for the current rules governing frequency usage.
We recommend you to adjust the transmitter settings via
the operating menu of the EM 9046 receiver and then to
synchronize the transmitter and the receiver.
