Safety instructions
y Please read these instructions carefully and completely
before using the receiver.
y Make these instructions easily accessible to all users at all
times. Always include these instructions when passing the
receiver on to third parties.
y Never open electronic units! If units are opened by customers

This is
a
professional transmission system.
Commercial use is subject to the safety-at-work
regulations. Sennheiser, as the manufacturer, is
therefore obliged to expressly point out possible
health risks arising from use.
This system is capable of producing sound pressure exceeding
85 dB(A). 85 dB(A) is the sound pressure corresponding to the
maximum permissible volume which is by law (in some
countries) allowed to affect your hearing for the duration of a
working day. It is used as a basis according to the specifications
of industrial medicine. Higher volumes or longer durations can
damage your hearing. At higher volumes, the duration must be
shortened in order to prevent damage. The following are sure
signs that you have been subjected to excessive noise for too
long a time:
y You can hear ringing or whistling sounds in your ears.
y You have the impression (even for a short time only) that
you can no longer hear high notes.

SR 3254 or SR 3256 stereo transmitter and the EK 3253
bodypack receiver, musicians, video and sound amateurs,
reporters/broadcasters, etc. can directly monitor the received
sound signals without troublesome cables or monitor speakers
being required. In addition, the system can also be used for any
application where talkback signals are to be transmitted.
The system has superb audio quality with an increased signal-
to-noise ratio and dynamic range due to the inclusion of
Sennheiser’s HDX noise reduction system.
The EK 3253 bodypack receiver has the following features:
y Easy to use
y FOCUS function for individual audio mix
y Pilot tone squelch control (during stereo operation)
y Receiving frequencies tunable in steps of 5 kHz
y Scan function for scanning the channel banks for free
channels

Recommendations and tips
... for the receiver
y The antenna must not be in direct contact with the body.
... for optimum reception
y Reception range depends to a large extent on location. There
should be a “free line of sight” between transmitting and
receiving antennas.
y To avoid overmodulating the receiver, observe a minimum
distance of 5 m between transmitting and receiving antennas.
... for multi-channel operation
y When operating a multi-channel system, make sure to only
use intermodulation-free frequencies.
Maintenance and care
Water can damage the electronics of the
receiver!
CAUTION!
Water entering the housing of the receiver can
cause
a
short-circuit and damage the
electronics.

Additional information
HDX noise reduction
RF link
Inherent
noise
of the
RF link
Receiver
Transmitter
Progress you can hear:
The product family is equipped with HDX, the Sennheiser noise
reduction system that reduces RF interference. It increases the
signal-to-noise ratio in wireless audio transmission to more
than 90 dB.
HDX is a wideband compander system which compresses the
audio signal in the transmitter in a 2:1 ratio (related to dB) to
lift it above the inherent noise floor of the RF link. In the
receiver the signal is expanded in an identical and opposite way
in a 1:2 ratio to restore the original signal, at the same time
reducing the RF noise to below the noise floor of the receiver.
HDX has been specially developed for high quality radio
microphone systems.
Note:
Only transmitters and receivers that are equipped with HDX
can work correctly with each other. If non HDX equipment
was mixed with HDX, the dynamic range would be
drastically reduced and the transmission would sound
blunt and flat.
33
Squelch
Pilot tone squelch
When set to stereo operation, the transmitter adds a 19-kHz
pilot tone to the audio signal. The receiver checks incoming
audio signals to see if the pilot tone is present. In the absence
of the 19-kHz signal, the receiver’s audio output will remain
muted, even if a strong RF signal is present.
This prevents strong interfering signals from causing hissing
noise in the receiver when the transmitter is switched off.
Field strength-dependent squelch
Depending on the strength of the received RF signal, the
receiver’s audio output is opened or muted. Via the “SQELCH”
menu of the receiver, the squelch threshold can be adjusted in
three steps (LO, MID, HI).

Warranty regulations
The guarantee period for this Sennheiser product is 24 months
from the date of purchase. Excluded are accessory items,
rechargeable or disposable batteries that are delivered with
the product; due to their characteristics these products have a
shorter service life that is principally dependent on the
individual frequency of use.
The guarantee period starts from the date of original purchase.
For this reason, we recommend that the sales receipt be
retained as proof of purchase. Without this proof (which is
checked by the responsible Sennheiser service partner) you will
not be reimbursed for any repairs that are carried out.
Depending on our choice, guarantee service comprises, free of
charge, the removal of material and manufacturing defects
through repair or replacement of either individual parts or the
entire device. Inappropriate usage (e.g. operating faults,
mechanical damages, incorrect operating voltage), wear and
tear, force majeure and defects which were known at the time
of purchase are excluded from guarantee claims. The guarantee
is void if the product is manipulated by non-authorised persons
or repair stations.
In the case of a claim under the terms of this guarantee, send
the device, including accessories and sales receipt, to the
responsible service partner. To minimise the risk of transport
damage, we recommend that the original packaging is used.
Your legal rights against the seller, resulting from the contract
of sale, are not affected by this guarantee.
The guarantee can be claimed in all countries outside the U.S.
provided that no national law limits our terms of guarantee.
