Wireless Audio SNAFU at DVinfo.net

I've just recieved borrowed wireless lavs and am testing them out. I'm not getting R side audio from my wireless lav mic. It was working fine just minutes before I unplugged the line out from the reciever and then plugged it back in. After plugging it in, I was only hearing audio from the left side. I'm using a Sennheiser ew500, going to a Beachtek attatched to my GL2. Not sure if I hit something on the camera? I've never used wireless lavs before, so I'm at a loss.

Maybe you hit the small switch at the beachtek, from mono to stereo. Just a reminder.

Thanks Jun. I plugged everything in this morning and it is working fine.

Another question: Which sound levels should I pay attention to? There's controls on the GL2, on the beachtek, and even the wireless lav. Does one effectively control sound over all of the other controls, or do they compliment each other?
