Interference Management

Wireless Workbench can detect and manage interference for AD4D, AD4Q, and some ADX5D receivers.

Interference detection availability for ADX5D depends your region and which backplate you are using. See the ADX5D user guide for more detail.

Define how the system should handle interference in the properties panel of each receiver.

  1. In the Inventory or Monitor tabs, right-click the receiver and choose Properties.
  2. Go to the Radio tab.
  3. Select one of the following options in the Interference Avoidance Mode field to define which action should be taken in the event of interference:
    • Off - The system will not detect interference.
    • Manual - Manually switch to a clear frequency.
    • Automatic - Wireless Workbench will automatically select a clear frequency. If you are using a Spectrum Manager, the system will automatically switch to a clear frequency.

Unregistered Transmitter Action

Unregistered transmitters are a potential source of interference. The unregistered transmitter setting determines how the receiver reacts the presence of unregistered transmitters.

From the Unregistered Transmitter Action menu in the properties panel, choose one of the following options:
  • Allow: The receiver will pass audio from the unregistered transmitter
  • Warn: The receiver will display a warning when an unregistered transmitter is detected
  • Block: The receiver treat the unregistered transmitter as interference and will block the audio
