SRa/SRa5P 2 Channel Receiver

		Camera Slot UHF Receiver The SRa5P and SRa consists of two separate receivers built into a single, ultra compact housing with adapters for video camera receiver slots and for stand-alone use. Digital Hybrid Wireless® technology provides superb, compandor-free audio quality and compatibility with other wireless systems. The RF performance is extremely stable over a very wide temperature range, making the receiver perfectly suited to the rough environmental conditions found in field production. A DSP compatibility mode allows the SR to be used with Lectrosonics IFB transmitters.

The two internal receivers can be operated separately, each using switching, antenna combining diversity, or in tandem with ratio diversity reception. Clear frequencies are easily found with the built-in RF spectrum scanner and graphical LCD. The audio outputs of the receivers can be mixed internally, or left separated for discrete recording tracks or external mixing.

Several different rear panel adapters are available to configure the receiver for popular camera slots and for stand-alone use. The rear panels are held in place by two screws and are easily changed. Camera slot adapter kits include top panel bezels with hardware for a secure fit into the camera body. On the SRa5P, a 5-pin connector next to the control panel provides audio output from both channels in addition to the camera slot outputs. The unit is powered from an external 6 to 18 volt DC source.

NOTE: Not all cameras have two audio channels enabled in the slot.

Digital Hybrid Wireless® is a revolutionary new design that combines digital audio with an analog FM radio link to provide outstanding audio quality and the exemplary RF performance of the finest analog wireless systems. This overcomes channel noise in a dramatically new way, digitally encoding the audio in the transmitter and decoding it in the receiver, yet still sending the encoded information via an analog FM wireless link. This proprietary algorithm is not a digital implementation of an analog compandor. Instead, it is a technique which can be accomplished only in the digital domain. The process eliminates compandor artifacts, expanding the applications to include test and measurement of acoustic spaces and musical instruments.

Available Adaptors:

SRUNI - Adapter kit for Unislot® camera slots such as those provided on Ikegami® and Panasonic® cameras (note: not all cameras have two audio channels enabled in the slot - please check with the camera manufacturer). Includes bezel, hardware and rear panel DB25 connector wired for power and audio connections.

SRSNY - Adapter kit for Sony® camera slots (note: not all cameras have two audio channels enabled in the slot - please check with the camera manufacturer), includes bezel, hardware and rear panel DB15 connector wired for power and audio connections.

SREXT - For stand-alone use, this kit includes a rear panel with two TA3 male jacks for the balanced outputs and a power jack with a locking connector. Trim the power cable to the desired length.

SRHARNESS - Ideal for use in portable "bag systems". Two balanced output cables and the power cable are 6 feet long. Cut the cables to the desired length and terminate as needed.

SRBATTSLED - The receiver can be powered with an optional "battery sled" adapter that attaches to the outside of the housing. The adapter includes an integrated connector plate and accepts L and M type video camera rechargeable batteries. The adapter sled does not include charging circuitry. Batteries must be recharged with their respective chargers. The external power jack includes a switch that disconnects the battery when a plug is inserted.
