ECM-S1
Use this Help Guide when you have issues or questions on how to use your wireless/streaming microphone.
Compatible cameras
The wireless/streaming microphone ECM-S1 is compatible with a camera that has a Multi Interface
Shoe such as a Sony Interchangeable Lens Digital Camera.
- Even if your camera has a Multi Interface Shoe, you may be unable to use it with this unit or some
functions may not work.
- The receiver and the microphone are factory-set to communicate with each other. Therefore,
operations usually needed for Bluetooth devices such as pairing and passkey entry are not
necessary. With any Bluetooth device other than the receiver and the microphone, on the other
hand, communication is not possible.
For camera models compatible with this unit, view here. (Another window will open.)

Receiver
Slide switch (ANALOG/OFF/DIGITAL)
Select “ANALOG” (analog audio output), “OFF” (power off), or “DIGITAL” (digital audio output).
If your camera is compatible with the digital audio interface of the Multi Interface Shoe, set the switch to
“DIGITAL.”
Digital signal transmission from the receiver to the camera has the following merits over analog signal
transmission that is enabled by the switch being set to “ANALOG.”
Audio recording with less noises
Less audio delay during recording
Recording with 24-bit audio (only available in combination with the compatible camera)
Note
Movies recorded with 24-bit audio may not be played back normally on devices or software incompatible with 24-bit
audio, resulting in unexpectedly loud volumes or no sound.
If your camera is not compatible with the digital audio interface of the Multi Interface Shoe, set the switch to
“ANALOG.”
When the message “This accessory is not supported by the device and cannot be used.” is displayed on the
camera, set the switch to “ANALOG.”
If this does not help, see here.
When a TRS audio cable with the 3.5 mm diameter plug (commercially available) is connected, the receiver
outputs analog signals via the cable.
When a device with a USB audio input capability is connected, the receiver outputs digital signals.
When you do not intend to use the receiver, set the switch to “OFF” to conserve the battery power.

You can record the sounds coming across from the front while minimizing those coming from the back. This directivity
is suitable for recording the voice of a single person, for example, for making podcast or narrative recordings.
: Monaural, Omni-directional
Sounds from all directions are equally picked. This directivity is suitable for recording the voices of multiple persons
or for making recordings that capture the on-site atmosphere.
: Stereo, Uni-directional
Widespread sounds are captured with a rich sense of realism. This directivity is suitable, for example, for music
recording.

Charging the receiver
Use a USB Type-C cable (commercially available) to charge the built-in battery of the receiver.
Note
Do not apply excessive force to the receiver when you connect the receiver to a computer. This may cause damage to the
receiver or the computer.
Connecting the receiver to a laptop computer that is not connected to an AC power source may deplete the battery power of the
computer. Do not leave the receiver connected to the computer for an extended period of time.
Use of any customized or hand-built computer is not guaranteed for battery charging or for connection with the receiver.
Depending on the type of USB device used in combination with the receiver, the receiver may fail to operate.
Not all the computers are guaranteed for operation with the receiver.
Battery charging via the USB connection may not be possible when the connected computer goes into standby (sleep) or
hibernate mode. If this is the case, change the computer settings and then charge the battery all over again.
In the event that the receiver is kept unused for an extended period of time, the amount of power that the rechargeable battery
can charge may be reduced. To make the battery capable of charging sufficient power, let the battery charge and discharge the
power repeatedly for a few times. In the event that you store the receiver for an extended period of time, charge the battery once
every 6 months to protect it against over-discharging.
In the event that the receiver is kept unused for an extended period of time, it may take longer to charge the built-in battery.
Open the lid of the USB Type-C port and connect a USB Type-C cable to the port.

Connect the cable to a power source, such as a computer that is up and running, for battery charging.
The power lamp on the receiver lights in orange.

When battery charging is finished, disconnect the USB Type-C cable from the receiver.
Wait until the power lamp goes out to indicate that charging is finished (the battery is fully charged).

In the event that the rechargeable battery of the receiver fails and the failure is detected while battery charging is in progress, the
power lamp on the receiver stays blinking in orange.
It is recommended that the battery be charged when the ambient temperature is in the range of 15 °C to 35 °C (59 °F to 95 °F).
Efficient battery charging may not be possible when the temperature is outside this range.
If the failure persists, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
In the event of charging the built-in battery after the receiver is kept unused for an extended period of time, the power lamp on the
receiver may not immediately light in orange. Wait for a while until the power lamp lights in orange.
A significantly short battery life indicates that the rechargeable battery should be replaced with a new one. Consult your nearest
Sony dealer.
Keep the receiver against exposure to extreme temperature changes, direct sunlight, moisture, sand, dust, and electrical shocks.
Never leave the receiver in a parked vehicle.
When connecting the receiver to a computer, be sure to use only the USB Type-C cable and connect them directly. Indirect
connection, for example, via a USB hub fails to charge the built-in battery.
