System Bundles

P3T - Transmitter

This half-width rackmount transmitter is included in all PSM 300 systems and has dual, electronically balanced, 6.35mm 3-pole jack inputs and loop outputs of the same specification. All connections are on the rear panel as well as a 'StereoMX/Mono' switch, which can be set to send either a two-channel stereo mix or summed audio mix to the P3R/P3RA receiver and a 'Line/Aux' switch switches the input sensitivity between -10dBv (Aux) and +4dBu (line) to suit the source device. There is a single BNC connector for use with removable antenna, and a power adapter input for the included PSU. The front panel has an LCD display to show current status and settings menu, a 'Sync' button to allow synchronised setup via infrared, group and channel buttons, power on/off switch, and a rotary control to adjust the audio input level.

Nominal input level: +4dBu/-10dBv, switchable. RF output power: 10/20/30mW, country dependant. Power source: 12-15V DC, 260 mA maximum. Dimensions (WxDxH): 198 x 172 x 43mm. Weight: 783g.

P3RA - Receiver, bodypack, metal

This has the functionality of the P3R but is housed within a smaller metal body for a more robust and compact solution. Additional features of the P3RA include 2-band shelving EQ, battery display in hours and minutes, an LCD screen with menu based setting adjustment and compatibility with the SB900-B battery.

Battery life: 7 hours. RF sensitivity: 2.2uV at 20dB SINAD dBm, for 12cV SINAD, typical. Audio output power: 80mW. Load impedance: 16 ohms minimum. Power source: 2x AA alkaline cells or SB900-B. Dimensions (HxWxD): 110 x 64 x 21mm. Weight: 196g, less battery.

PSM 900 Wireless Personal Monitor System is an in ear monitoring system with patented audio reference companding, transmitter linearity, and patented CueMode functionality. The system has 20 compatible frequencies per band and a 36MHz to 40MHz tuning bandwidth.

All PSM 900 components are audio and frequency-sync compatible with PSM 1000 and vice versa (depending on tuning bandwidth). The transmitters are also compatible with the UHF-R series of radiomic receivers, so can be used for point-to point links. The two receivers use AA cells or optional SB900-B battery pack, and may be charged in the SBC200 or SBC800 charger, without removing the battery from the receiver.

Using the 'Scan and Sync' facility, a user can use a receiver to scan the RF environment and assign an identified group and channel to a system over a wireless IR link. This single receiver can be used to transfer the settings to multiple transmitters, one by one. A single receiver in 'CueMode' can be used to monitor up to twenty different mixes at the touch of a button, so an operator can hear what the performers hear. 'MixMode' offers the user the facility to adjust his own mix using controls on the belt pack. RF mute switches on the transmitters enable or disable RF transmission, allowing setup operation without disrupting the RF environment - useful for festivals and multi-venue events.

RF filtering 'significantly reduces RF interference for a cleaner, stronger RF signal, fewer dropouts, and less audible artifacts'. The linearity of the transmitters 'vastly reduce frequency intermodulation', allowing up to 20 compatible channels for the P9T and 40 compatible channels for the P10T to operate simultaneously in one frequency band. Active RF gain control avoids RF signal overload which can cause dropouts if the receiver comes too close to the transmitting antenna.

ADTD - Dual transmitter

ADTD wireless dual in-ear monitoring transmitter has a host of features including scalable channel count, multichannel wideband RF, and spatial diversity transmission. This ensures the transmitter can perform in the most challenging RF environments. ShowLink remote control, networkable monitoring with Wireless Workbench, analogue and digital inputs, and internal antenna combining, allow a greater level of management and flexibility to the in-ear monitor system workflow. Note, some of the listed features will be available in planned firmware updates.

The front facing panel hosts a large, 6.6-inch colour display, allowing the user to see and navigate menu items and working statuses at a glance. To the right of the screen, four function buttons along with enter button and exit button allow navigation of menus and settings. A large push jog wheel assists in navigation, value changes, and selection. A 3.5mm stereo headphone jack connector allows local monitoring of audio, whilst an associated rotary controller allows for volume changes. An infrared sensor syncs a receiver with data settings required, and a RF switch allows the user to quickly mute transmission. A main power on/off switch is positioned to the far right of the transmitter.

The rear facing panel houses BNC connections for A and B external antenna, combination 6.35mm/3-pin XLR inputs for channels 1-4, and four RJ45 connections for control 1, 2, and Dante ports 1 and 2. A switch allows the user to select between analogue and AES3 inputs. For models with redundant DC power, the power is via a single AC IEC input connection, and a single DC power input. For models without redundant powering, a single AC IEC input is positioned next to a female AC IEC thru connection for linking to multiple transmitters in a chain.
