U100 Series Compatible with 7000 Series Wireless
For greater convenience and flexibility, receivers and transmitters in the Audio-Technica U100 Series and 7000 Series are
available individually and may be used interchangeably. All are 100-channel, PLL-synthesized UHF units operating in one of
two UHF frequency ranges: ÒxÓ units in 656-668 MHz, and non-ÓxÓ units in 728-740 MHz. Model ÒxÓ transmitters must
be used only with ÒxÓ receivers; the same holds true for non-ÓxÓ transmitters and receivers.

Installation and Operation
CAUTION!The circuits inside the receiver and transmitter
have been precisely adjusted for optimum performance
and compliance with federal regulations. Do not attempt
to open the receiver or transmitter. To do so will void the
warranty, and may cause improper operation.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the condition that this device does
not cause harmful interference.
This device complies with INDUSTRY CANADA R.S.S.
210, en conformitŽ avec IC: RSS-210/ CNR210. Operation
is subject to the following conditions: 1) This device may
not cause harmful interference and 2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference
which may cause undesired operation. Introduction
Thank you for choosing an Audio-Technica professional
wireless system. You have joined thousands of other satisfied
customers who have chosen our products because of their
quality, performance and reliability. This Audio-Technica
wireless system is the successful result of years of design
and manufacturing experience.
The U100 systems are designed primarily for use in audio-for-
video applications, with the receiver mounted on a camera and
connected to the cameraÕs audio input. U100 systems provide
a choice of 100 PLL-synthesized UHF frequencies in one of
two UHF frequency ranges: ÒxÓ units in 656-668 MHz, and
non-ÓxÓ units in 728-740 MHz. Each system includes a
receiver and either a body-pack or plug-on transmitter:
System Receiver Transmitter
ATW-U101 ATW-R100 ATW-T101 Body-pack
ATW-U101x ATW-R100x ATW-T101x Body-pack
ATW-U102 ATW-R100 ATW-T102 Plug-on
ATW-U102x ATW-R100x ATW-T102x Plug-on
The ATW-R100(x) receiver features true diversity reception.
Two antennas feed two completely independent RF sections
on the same frequency; automatic logic circuitry continuously
compares and selects the superior received signal, providing
better sound quality and reducing the possibility of dropouts.
Front-end helical filter design improves rejection of
interference. The receiver also offers balanced audio output
with level control, a headphone jack with volume control,
removable antennas, a hinged battery door, and LED
indicators. It operates on two internal 9V batteries or external
12V DC.
Each transmitter is powered by one internal 9V battery and
has an Off/Standby/On switch, input level control, battery
condition indicator and channel selector switches. The
ATW-T101(x) body-pack transmitter has an industry-standard
TB5M input connector with both low- and high-impedance
inputs plus a bias connection. The ATW-T102(x) has a 3-pin
XLRF-type input connector with a locking collar.
Note: Since ÒxÓ and non-ÓxÓ units operate in different
frequency ranges, they are not compatible. Model ÒxÓ
transmitters must be used only with ÒxÓ receivers; the same
holds true for non-ÓxÓ transmitters and receivers.
Please note that in multiple system applications there must
be a transmitter-receiver combination set to a
separate frequency for each input desired (only one transmitter for each
receiver). Because the operating frequencies of U100 Systems
are in UHF TV frequencies, only certain wireless frequencies
may be useable in a particular geographic area. Also, only
certain of the available operating frequencies may be used
together. Suggestions for multiple-system frequency grouping
will be found on pages 9 and 10. Warning: To prevent fire or shock hazard,
do not expose this appliance to rain or
moisture.
Attention: Pour prŽvenir feu ou choc

pluie ou ˆ lÕhumiditŽ.
Notice to individuals with implanted car diac pacemakers or AICD devices :
Any source of RF (radio frequency) energy may interfere
with normal functioning of the implanted device. All
wireless microphones have low-power transmitters
(less than 0.05 watts output) which are unlikely to cause
difficulty, especially if they are at least a few inches away.
However, since a Òbody-packÓ mic transmitter typically is
placed against the body, we suggest attaching it at the belt,
rather than in a shirt pocket where it may be immediately
adjacent to the medical device. Note also that
any
medical- device disruption will cease when the RF
transmitting source is turned off
. Please contact your
physician or medical - device provider if you have any
questions, or experience any problems with the use of
this or any other RF equipment.
