8. Solución de problemas
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Phenyx Pro wireless microphone system.
| Problema | Posible causa | Solución |
|---|---|---|
| No hay sonido o la salida es baja | Microphone muted; low microphone battery; receiver volume too low; incorrect cable connection; external amplifier/speaker off or volume low. | Check microphone mute status; replace batteries; increase receiver channel volume; verify all audio cables are securely connected; ensure external audio equipment is powered on and volume is adequate. |
| Cutoffs, static, or interference | Environmental RF interference; microphone too far from receiver; obstacles blocking signal; frequency conflict. | Relocate receiver for better line of sight; ensure antennas are properly positioned; change microphone frequency (tap SET button); avoid placing receiver near other wireless devices or large metal objects. Consider upgrading to a True Diversity system for challenging environments. |
| El micrófono no se empareja | Microphone or receiver not powered on; frequency mismatch. | Ensure both receiver and microphone are powered on. The system should auto-pair. If not, manually select a frequency on the microphone. |
| Audio feedback (squealing) | Microphone too close to speakers; microphone gain too high; speaker volume too high. | Move microphone further from speakers; reduce individual channel gain on the receiver; lower overall speaker volume. |
8.1 Extending Operating Range
To extend the operating range beyond the standard 200ft, we recommend using the Phenyx Pro PAS-225X antenna distribution system. This system enhances signal strength and coverage, allowing for greater distance and more reliable performance.
