1 Applications
Combined with a receiver or several receivers of the type TG-98RA / 5, the transmitter TG-98TA / 5 creates a mobile wireless voice transmission system, e. g. for guided tours or lectures in various languages. The transmission range depends on local conditions; the maximum range is 200 m.
The wireless transmission range is 506 - 542 MHz. The transmission channels are divided into 6 groups. All channels of a group (22 channels max.) may be used at the same time without mutual interference.

- The transmitter / receiver is suitable for indoor use only. Protect it against dripping water, splash water and high air humidity. The admissible ambient temperature range is 0 – 40 °C.
- For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth; never use water or chemicals.
- No guarantee claims for the transmitter / receiver and no liability for any resulting personal damage or material damage will be accepted if the transmitter / receiver is used for other purposes than originally intended, if it is not correctly operated, or if it is not repaired in an expert way.

If the transmitter / receiver is to be put out of operation definitely, dispose of the transmitter / receiver in accordance with local regulations.
3 Operation
3.1 Inserting/Replacing batteries
For power supply, two 1.5 V batteries of size AA are required. When the button POWER / MUTE (2) lights up in red, the batteries are discharged and should be replaced.
- Only insert batteries of the same type and always replace both of them.
- If the transmitter / receiver is not in use for a longer period of time, always remove the batteries as a precaution to prevent damage due to battery leakage.
Open the battery compartment (9) on the rear. Insert the batteries as indicated in the compartment, and then close the compartment.

Never put batteries in the household waste. Always dispose of the batteries in accordance with local regulations.
3.2 Connecting the microphone to the transmitter
The transmitter (black housing marked with a "T") is equipped with an internal microphone (3). Instead of the internal microphone, the clip-on microphone (11) can be used alternatively. Place the pop shield on the microphone. Clamp the microphone cable into the holder (10) as illustrated in fig. 3 and attach the holder to your clothes (e. g. tie), as close to your mouth as possible. Connect the microphone to the jack (4). Thus, the internal microphone is switched off.
3.3 Connecting the earphone to the receiver
The receiver (grey housing marked with an "R") is equipped with an integrated speaker ▶(3). Instead of this speaker, the earphone provided can be used to reproduce sound. Wrap the foam cover around the earphone as a padding: Put the earphone (with the JTS logo to the rear) into the unprinted pocket of the cover. Wrap the cover around the earphone and slip the second pocket over it. The printing ▶will mark the side where sound is emitted. Connect the earphone to the jack (4) and attach the earphone to your ear.
3.4 Wearing options
There are two wearing options for the transmitter / receiver: Attach its clip (8) to your clothes (e. g. belt or trouser pocket) or wear it on the lanyard provided (7):
Pull the thin loop of the lanyard over the clip (fig. 2), shift the stopper to adjust the desired length of the lanyard and put the lanyard around your neck. When the snap buckle is unlocked, the transmitter / receiver can be easily removed or exchanged.
3.5 Switching on / Setting the transmission channel
The table on page 3 shows all available channels. When up to 22 tour guide systems are used at the same time (e.g. for lectures in various languages), select the channels from the same group. There will be no mutual interference with channels of the same group.
1) For the time being, switch on the receiver only: Keep the button POWER (2) pressed until the display (5) lights up.
2) Keep the button SET (6) pressed until ⬤ or ⬤ to select the group.
3) Press the button SET again: The right digit for the channel starts flashing. Use the button or select the channel.
4) Press the button SET again to save the setting. Sisobiefly indicated and the symbol (no reception) appears. If the antenna symbol appears instead, interference signals or signals from another wireless transmission system are received. In this case, use a different channel.
5) Switch on the transmitter and set it to the channel of the receiver.
