Shure WA470 User Guide

For optimal placement, position the WA470 antenna at least 3 feet away from walls or metal surfaces and at a height above the performers. Ensure line-of-sight with the wireless transmitter for best performance.
To troubleshoot signal dropouts, check for interference from other electronic devices, ensure the antennas are properly connected, and verify that the receiver and transmitter are on matching frequencies.
Regularly inspect the antenna and connectors for any physical damage, clean the connectors with isopropyl alcohol if needed, and check for firmware updates for the connected devices.
Yes, the WA470 can be used outdoors. Ensure it is mounted securely to prevent wind damage, keep it away from moisture, and use weatherproof connectors if exposure to the elements is likely.
Connect the WA470 antenna to the antenna input on your wireless receiver using a compatible coaxial cable, ensuring all connections are tight to prevent signal loss.
Use a low-loss coaxial cable, such as RG-58 or RG-213, to minimize signal loss over long distances. Ensure the cable length is appropriate for the setup to prevent unnecessary attenuation.
To extend the range, consider using an RF amplifier or a distribution system to boost the signal. Additionally, ensure the antenna is placed as high as possible and free from obstructions.
The WA470 supports a frequency range from 470 MHz to 952 MHz, making it compatible with various wireless systems. Check your specific receiver model for exact frequency compatibility.
Store the WA470 in a cool, dry place to prevent corrosion and damage. Ensure the antenna elements are folded down if possible, and avoid placing heavy objects on it to maintain its structural integrity.
If the WA470 is damaged, inspect the extent of the damage. Minor repairs can be done with replacement parts from Shure. For extensive damage, consider replacing the antenna to ensure optimal performance and safety.
