System Overview

Thank you for purchasing a Motiva™ Personal FM System from Williams Sound Corp. Anyone needing

auditory assistance to overcome background noise, reverberation, or distance from a sound source

can beneﬁt from a Personal FM System.

Your PFM System has two principal parts: the Transmitter and the Receiver. Much like a miniature ra-

dio station, the Transmitter and microphone pick up the sounds you want to hear and broadcast them

over an FM radio signal. The receiver and earphone are used to pick up the broadcast up to 150 feet

away.

To avoid difﬁculties, please read through these instructions as you begin using the system. Then save

them for questions that arise as you continue to use your Williams Sound Personal FM System.

If you have problems with the PFM system, don’t hesitate to call us toll-free at 1-800-843-3544.

The speaker wears the belt-clip transmitter and a clip-on microphone. The speaker’s voice is broad-

cast as an FM radio signal over a distance of 150 feet. Listeners use the pocket receiver and

earphones or headphones to hear the speaker’s voice directly, with reduced background noise. An

optional neckloop telecoil coupler allows the system to be used with telecoil (T-switch) equipped hear-

ing aids.

Using the PFM T36 Transmitter

IMPORTANT: If Alkaline (nonrechargeable) batteries are being installed, slide the battery selec-

tion switch in the battery compartment to the “Alkaline” position. See FIG 1 below. If installing

NiMH (or rechargeable) batteries, slide the battery selection switch to the “NiMH” position.

1. Install two (2) AA batteries. Note: rechargeable batteries must be charged before use. See Bat-

tery Information on page 11.

2. Plug the microphone cord into the “Mic Jack” ( ) on top of the transmitter.

3. Optionally, plug in a desired audio source such as a CD or MP3 player using the “Auxiliary Input”

jack (WCA 087 stereo auxiliary input cable included). If the microphone and an auxiliary source are

used together, the audio will be mixed. If only the auxiliary source is desired, the microphone can

be muted. Do not remove the microphone from the “Mic Jack” as the microphone’s cable is also the

transmitting antenna!

4. Turn the unit on: press and hold the “ON/OFF/MUTE” button for three seconds. The “Power On”

indicator ( ) should illuminate green.

5. Select the desired operating frequency. Use the “Channel Selector” knob to select any of the 16

available channels on 72-76 MHz. Refer to the channel selection chart (FIG 9, Page 10). Make

sure the receiver being used is operating on the same frequency as the T36 transmitter.

6. Place the transmitter in a pocket, or clip it onto a belt or waistband (See “BELT CLIP INSTALLA-

TION”, page 10).

7. Lapel clip microphones should be attached to a collar or lapel, as close to the speaker’s mouth

as practical. If using an optional headset microphone, position the mic as close to the side of the

mouth as possible without touching the mouth See FIG 3.

8. To mute the microphone, press the “ON/OFF/MUTE” button momentarily. The “ON/OFF/MUTE” but-

ton will ﬂash red. To unmute the microphone, press the “ON/OFF/MUTE” button momentarily again.

IMPORTANT: When the T36 transmitter is not being used, remember to turn the unit OFF by press-

ing and holding the “ON/OFF/MUTE” button for three seconds. The Power On indicator will not be lit.

GAIN CONTROL

The gain control can be used to adjust the volume level on both the microphone and auxiliary input. To

adjust the volume level, open the battery door and locate the Gain Control (see FIG 4). Use the sup-

plied small screwdriver and rotate to increase “+” or decrease “-” the gain.

AUXILIARY INPUT LEVEL

The auxiliary input level can be used to adjust the auxiliary input level only. To adjust, open the battery

door and locate the Auxiliary Input Level (see FIG 4). Use the supplied small screwdriver and rotate to

increase “+” or decrease “-” the input level.

Note: When using an auxiliary audio source, if the “Aux Input Level” is set too high, there can be

increased audio distortion and decreased battery life.

Note: Microphone cable serves additional purpose as the transmitting antenna; therefore must remain

plugged in during Aux cable use.

COMPRESSION SELECTOR

By default, the T36 compression is set to “Off” for normal operation, or “1:1” compression. For hear-

ing assistance applications, the compression selector can be set to “On” for “2:1” compression.

To change this setting, open the battery door and locate the Compression Selector (FIG 4). To turn on

compression, use the supplied small screwdriver and slide the “Comp” switch to the position marked

“2:1”. To turn off compression, slide the “Comp” switch to the position marked “1:1”.

CHANNEL LOCK

By default, the T36 channels are unlocked to allow the user to change frequencies as needed. If de-

sired, channels can be locked to prevent users from changing the channels.

Note: The Channel Lock only locks the electronic frequency; it does not physically lock the channel

selection knob.

To lock or unlock channels, open the battery door and locate the Channel Lock (FIG 4). To lock the

current channel while the unit is on, slide the “CH Lock” switch to the position marked ( ). To

unlock the channels, use the supplied small screwdriver and slide the “CH Lock” switch to the position

marked ( ).

LOW BATTERY INDICATOR

The “Power On” indicator (see FIG 2) will ﬂash to indicate low battery.

Using the PFM R33 / R36 Receiver

IMPORTANT: If Alkaline (nonrechargeable) batteries are being installed, slide the battery selec-

tion switch in the battery compartment to the “Alkaline” position. See FIG 5 below. If installing

NiMH (or rechargeable) batteries, slide the battery selection switch to the “NiMH” position.

1. Install two (2) AA batteries. Note: rechargeable batteries must be charged before use. See Bat-

tery Information on page 11.

2. (Applies only to R36) Insert the small plug mount microphone (MIC 014) into the “Mic Jack” ( )

on the top of the receiver. See FIG 7 below.

3. Plug the earphone or headphone into the “Headphone Jack” ( ) on top of the receiver. See FIG 8 /

FIG 9. Place the headphones on your head or earphone in your ear.

4. Turn the power on by rotating the “On/Off/FM Volume” knob clockwise. The “Power On Indicator”

( ) should illuminate green.

5. Select the desired operating frequency. Locate the “Channel Selector” inside the battery door (See

FIG. 5). Use the supplied small screwdriver to rotate the switch to the desired channel (See FIG. 9,

Page 10: Channel Selection Chart).

6. Adjust the receiver tone control to your needs. Locate the tone control inside the battery door. Use

the supplied small screwdriver to rotate the “Tone Control”. A low setting (fully counter-clockwise

“-”) emphasizes lower frequencies. A medium setting (rotated to a vertical position) has some low

frequency cut. A high setting (fully clockwise “+”) maximizes low frequency cut and emphasizes

higher frequencies.

Note: the earphone cord is also the receiving antenna. Do not bunch up the cord or wrap it

around the receiver. For best reception, the cord should hang as straight as possible.

7. Clip the receiver onto a belt or waistband, or slip it into a pocket (see Belt Clip Installation, page

10).

8. Check that the “FM Indicator” is illuminated yellow. Turn the “On/Off/FM Volume” knob to adjust the

volume to a comfortable listening level.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the receiver is turned OFF when not in use. Turn the “FM Volume” knob

completely counter-clockwise. It should “click” and the “Power On” indicator should turn off.

ADJUSTING THE R36 VOLUME CONTROLS:

A. Adjust the left control, “On/Off/FM Volume”, to a comfortable listening level. Check that the

“FM Indicator” is illuminated yellow. Turn the volume knob clockwise until you are able to

hear audio from the transmitter.

B. Adjust the right control, “Mic”, volume second, turning it clockwise until you can hear

sounds picked up by the plug mount microphone.

C. Adjust the “Mic” and “On/Off/FM Volume” controls for a comfortable mix of FM and ambient

sounds.
