How to Install Shure Wireless Headset System with PGA31 Headset

Setting up your Shure BLX14 headset system is straightforward and quick, so you can focus on your performance or presentation rather than tangled cables. Follow these general steps to get running smoothly:

• Unpack the receiver and transmitter, then connect the receiver to your sound system or mixer using a balanced XLR or 1/4" output, ensuring the receiver is securely mounted and powered.
• Install a fresh AA battery into the belt-pack transmitter. Make sure the battery compartment is closed firmly and the transmitter powers on with a visible LED indicator.
• Place the PGA31 headset microphone on your head and adjust the headset so that the mic sits comfortably about an inch from your mouth, with the boom aligned to your speaking angle. Ensure the mic is not rubbing or pulling on hair or skin.
• Turn on both the transmitter and receiver. Use the receiver’s sync/link function to pair with the transmitter, ensuring a solid connection and clear audio. If a direct cable connection is used to connect to a mixer, verify the outputs are correctly configured.
• Conduct a quick gain and sound check. Speak at your intended performance level and adjust the transmitter gain or mixer input sensitivity for a clean, distortion-free signal. Check for any feedback and adjust mic position if needed.
• Do a final stage test in the actual venue to confirm signal strength, range, and battery life under performance conditions. Tighten or adjust the headset for comfort if you’ll be moving extensively, and ensure all cables and accessories are safely stowed.
