Simeon 7LT FM Transmitter
Move the Power ON/OFF switch on the top of the unit into the 'ON' position
[20]. This will cause a red LED indicator to turn on, and the word "On" to flash on
the screen. Thereafter the screen will show both what channel the transmitter
is on and its remaining battery. The transmitter requires either a microphone or
a line-in source, connected via the Microphone Input Jack [21] or the Auxiliary
Input Jack [27] respectively. Wear the transmitter using its belt clip or in its belt
pack. To turn the transmitter off, simply move the Power ON/OFF switch back to
the 'OFF' position.
Simeon 701TS Hand-held FM Transmitter/Microphone
To turn the transmitter on, hold the power button on the base of the body
[36] for three (3) seconds, until the display screen [34] reads "On". Thereafter the
screen will both what channel the transmitter is on and its remaining battery. The
capsule [38] of the 701TS is highly directional – point the microphone directly
towards the mouth for best performance. The Sensitivity/Mute Control on the
back of the transmitter [39] allows for fast adjustments to the sensitivity of the
microphone and easy interruption of the audio signal. To turn the transmitter off,
simply hold the power button [36] for three (3) seconds, until the display screen
reads "Off".
Simeon 623 Directional Boom Microphone
The Simeon 623 microphone and its alternatives are great additions to the
Simeon 900AU system, increasing its convenience and ease of use. They offer a
great hands-free way to use the 7LT for all your amplifying needs.
Plug the boom microphone into the 3.5mm input jack on the top of the 7LT
[21]. Place the frame [31] over your ears and adjust the boom arm [30] to posi-
tion the mic capsule to point to the corner of your mouth. It is not necessary
to place the microphone in front of your lips and doing so may diminish sound
quality. The boom microphone frame must be adjusted to rest comfortably over
both ears, with no other contact or pressure points against the head or face. En-
sure that the 7LT is not muted [19] and is turned ON. The input jack on the side
of the 7LT [27] can also be used for connecting to external audio feeds, including
laptops and iPods.

Assigning new channels
Transmitters 7LT and 701TS and receiver module 701DR feature a simple-
to-use menu that allows selection between 96 UHF channels. To assign a new
channel, press the SET button [7, 23, 37] until the displayed channel flashes. Use
the up and down cursors [3, 25, 35] to select the new channel. Press SET again
to confirm the new channel selection. Make sure that the transmitter channel
matches that of the corresponding receiver module.
External Connections
The back panel of the 900AU has several external connectors. These can be
used to connect peripheral devices to the receiver.
In the centre of the back panel there are two sets of auxiliary RCA input jacks
[8]. These can be used for connecting external audio sources, such as computers
and iPods to the receiver with the appropriate cable. The volume controls for
these inputs are found on the front of the 900AU [6]. They are labelled AUX IN
and PC IN to match the sets of jacks on the back.
Also in the middle of the back panel there is a 3.5mm auxiliary output jack
[11]. This can be used for direct connections to special equipment such as per-
sonal FM systems. To set these up, connect the personal FM transmitter to the
port on the back of the receiver. Screw-adjust gain and equalizer controls adjust
the output for the FM transmitter independently of the speaker volume. The
equalizers allow adjustment at 100, 1,000 and 10,000 Hz.
The 7LT is fitted with an auxiliary input jack [27] to allow for connection and
transmission of external audio feeds. The 7LT will automatically mute the micro-
phone when an auxiliary feed is connected.
Setting Gain Level
Check the volume position of both channels before turning the system on!
Turn the 500WU ON at the master power switch on the back of the receiver [1].
The 500WU comes with one or two 701DR Diversity Receiver Modules – one for
each FM channel. With the transmitters turned ON and microphone positioned
correctly, slowly increase the volume controls to a comfortable listening level.
Avoid excessive amplification – speech should be comfortably audible through-
out your listening area. Note that volume must be adjusted from the speaker;
neither the 7LT nor the 701TS are equipped with volume controls. Both trans-
mitters are equipped with a MUTE switch, so that the audio signal may be inter-
rupted at any time.
On the left of the front of the 900AU there are screw-adjust bass and treble
controls [5]. This will change the tone quality of the sound.
