how to install Shure P9T Wireless Transmitter
- Prepare your rack space: Mount the P9T in a standard 19-inch rack within a well-ventilated area. Ensure there is adequate clearance around the unit to allow cooling and easy access to controls, front-panel metering, and connectors. A clean, organized rack improves airflow and minimizes heat buildup during long performances.
- Power and grounding: Connect the transmitter to a reliable power source using an appropriate power cable. Verify the power connection is secure and that the rack’s grounding scheme is consistent with your venue’s electrical system to avoid hum and RF noise.
- Rack installation: Secure the P9T with rack screws, aligning it with adjacent equipment. Ensure the unit sits level, is not obstructed by other gear, and that cables have slack to prevent strain on connectors during transport and setup.
- System integration: Connect the P9T to your PSM900 system workflow. Route the transmitter’s input signal from your mixer or audio interface to the transmitter, following standard live-sound practices for level matching and cable integrity. If applicable, route the RF output to the intended coverage area and verify the RF environment with the Scan function.
- Channel setup and validation: Use the transmitter’s Scan and Sync feature to locate a clear RF channel. Once a suitable channel is identified, engage Sync with your P9R receiver(s) to ensure synchronized operation across your monitoring chain. Perform a quick audio check with a P9R bodypack to confirm level, clarity, and latency are within the desired range.
- CueMode and safety checks: If your production relies on CueMode, program the required cues and monitor controls. Test triggers and mute actions with the crew to ensure timing aligns with rehearsals, then document the cue mapping for stage personnel.
- Final testing and optimization: Conduct a full-field test on stage, evaluating sound quality, latency (if applicable), and RF stability across the performance space. Make any necessary adjustments to RF channels, go-to cues, or level settings to maintain a consistent monitoring experience for all performers.
