AR300/AL300 Operation
Setting a Group and Channel Manually
The AR300 receiver contains over 300 selectable channels that are organized into a
series of Groups. Each Group contains channels that are compatible for simultaneous
use. When using multiple systems, you’ll want to assign each system to the same Group
in order to maximize the number of compatible channels. Each of the Groups has six
to ten channels. The Group is designated with a letter, followed by the Group Channel
number 0-9 which is displayed under the “GROUP” icon in the AR300 LCD display.
To the right of the Group and Group Channel number is the read out for the Absolute
channel number. This three-digit Absolute Channel number corresponds to the exact
channel from the entire 319 channel plan. That Absolute Channel number is shown on
the AL300 transmitter’s LCD display.
The AL300 displays the Absolute Channel number it its LCD for a few seconds, and
then the display shuts off to preserve battery power. You can also see the transmitters
Absolute Channel number by switching the Mute on. In addition, the AL300 will also
display the Absolute Channel number briefly when the power is shut off.
