Coexisting with Wi-Fi

If you plan to use Wi-Fi during a performance, turn on Wi-Fi devices prior to turning on GLX-D and scanning for the best channel. GLX-D detects false or more GLXD4R receivers in use and not connected to avoids other Wi-Fi traffic by scanning the entire 2.4 GHz environment. Frequency Manager

Tips to Improve Wireless System Performance

If you encounter interference or dropouts, try the following suggestions:

1. Place receiver at least 3 meters (10 feet) away from Wi-Fi access points, computers, or other active 2.4 GHz sources.
2. Avoid heavy Wi-Fi traffic activities such as downloading large files or viewing a movie.
3. Turn on any Wi-Fi prior to turning on GLX-D and scanning for the best channel.
4. Reduce transmitter-to-receiver distance by placing receivers on stage or above the audience with a clear line of sight to the transmitter.
5. Move receiver to the top of the equipment rack for a clear line of sight.
6. Mount antennas remotely to place closer to transmitters and improve RF reliability if receivers cannot be moved closer.
7. Make sure people do not block the line of sight between receiver and transmitter.

Additional Tips

- Do not place competitive 2.4 GHz receivers near GLXD4R receivers.

- Connect more than two GLXD4R receivers to a GLX-D Frequency Manager to improve RF reliability.

- Scan for the best available channel by pressing the channel button.

- Keep transmitters more than 2 meters (6 feet) apart. This is less critical with shorter receiver-to-transmitter distances or if receivers are connected to a GLX-D Frequency Manager.

Note: If transmitters are within 6 inches of non-GLX-D transmitters or microphone cartridges, audible noise is possible.

- Move transmitter and receiver away from metal or other dense materials.

- During sound check, mark trouble spots and ask performers to avoid those areas.

- If there is a strong source of Wi-Fi and you specifically want to use frequencies within that Wi-Fi channel, use the following Group/Channel combinations (best option listed first):

- Wi-Fi 1: Group 3/Channel 8, Group 3/Channel 4

- Wi-Fi 6: Group 3/Channel 7, Group 3/Channel 5

- Wi-Fi 11: Group 3/Channel 2, Group 3/Channel 1

Group	Channel Count (Number Receivers)	of Number of Backup Frequencies Per Channel	Notes
		0Up to 8*3	Only use Group 3 in controlled Wi-Fi environments because there frequencies to avoid interference.
4	1	27	Best single-channel group if you experience interference.

*Environmentally dependent, 4 systems typical
See "Tips to Improve Wireless System Performance" section for additional information. For information about receiver groups when connected to the GLX-D Frequency Manager, see the UA846 user guide.

Setting Up Receivers and Transmitters

Note: Before beginning, turn off all receivers and transmitters. Turn on and set up each receiver/transmitter pair individually to prevent cross-linking.

1. Turn on the first receiver.
2. Press and hold the group button to select a group (if necessary) or if the group is already set, press the channel button to scan for the best available channel.
3. Turn on the first transmitter. The rf LED turns solid blue when a link is established.

Repeat steps 1-3 for each additional receiver and transmitter. Remember to set each receiver to the same group.

See GLX-D Frequency Manager guide for settling up receivers and transmitters when connected to the frequency manager.

Note: Dashes appearing on the group and channel display during a channel scan indicate that frequencies are not available in the selected group. Choose a group that supports more receivers and repeat set-up steps.

1. Turn on the transmitter: Within 5 seconds, press and hold the LINK button until the transmitter LED begins to flash green.

Combo Systems

A combo system is created by linking two transmitters to a single receiver, the group button to select a group. The receiver automatic Only one transmitter can be active at a time to prevent cross interference, the selected group to find the best available channel. Gain settings for each transmitter can be independently set and stored when the transmitter is active.

- UN is displayed momentarily to confirm the unlock command

Locking the Transmitter Power Switch

Starting with the transmitter set to off, press and hold the LINK button while

turning on the transmitter. Continue to hold the link button until

appears on the receiver LCD. Repeat sequence to unlock.

Manually Selecting a Group and Channel

Specific groups and channels can be assigned to the receiver instead of the automatic scan function.

Note: Group 3 should only be used in controlled Wi-Fi environments to prevent interference from unexpected Wi-Fi devices. Optionally, the transmitter power switch can be remotely locked from the receiver front panel:

Simultaneously press and hold the group and link buttons for approximately

2 seconds until the flashing lock icon appears on the receiver sequence to unlock.

Selecting a Group

1. Press and hold the group button for 2 seconds until the group display

flashes

Identifying Linked Transmitters and Receivers Remote ID

with Press the group button to scroll through the available groups.

1. The receiver will automatically save the selected group.

Use the Remote ID feature to identify linked transmitter and receiver pairs in multiple receiver systems. When Remote ID is active, the receiver will blink and display ID. The status LED of the corresponding transmitters will hold the channel button for 2 seconds until the channel display alternately flash red and green for approximately 45 seconds. Selecting a Channel flashes.

To activate Remote ID:

1. Momentarily press the link button on the transmitter or receiver.

2. The LCD of the linked receiver will blink and display ID and the status LED on the linked transmitter will flash red/green.

3. Press the channel button to scroll through the available channels.

4. The receiver will automatically save the selected channel.
