Thank you for choosing a A.N.T – Advanced Native Technologies – product!
In our START 16 “PLL Diversity” wireless systems we have put our passion and
our technological background gained over the years, to offer products that meet
your needs, maintaining the quality over time.
START 16 wireless systems operate in UHF band with 16 channels (frequencies).
You may choose the operating frequency via buttons or via infrared using ASC
feature.
Both versions of START 16R receivers adopt Diversity technology. They are
equipped with two discrete antennas A and B, which are used to select at any
moment the best radio signal. The antennas are fixed on the front panel of the
receiver, but may be placed in an horizontal position by means of a junction
present at their base.
Please,dedicatesomeminutestoreadthisinstructionmanualinordertoquicklyachieve
the best performances from this product.

shoulder strap of your guitar. For better
fastening reliability it’s preferable to
secure it as shown in the gure, then
fasten it in a way that the belt is tight
from the clip.
3| TIPS FOR BETTER USE OF THE SYSTEM
• Aim the transmitter to the receiver to achieve a “direct visual contact” between
devices, without any interposed obstacle.
• Avoid placing the receiver near metal objects/surfaces or close to digital equipment
(CD players, computers, etc.).
ENGLISH
START 16 Series | User manual

• Place the receiver in such a way that is far from a wall and that is at least
1 meter (about 3 feet) above the floor.
• Cell phones, two-way radio equipment or similar devices may disturb
the radio transmission between the transmitter and the receiver, so they
should not be used close to the transmission system.
