Can you set Sennheiser SK300 mic sensitivity from receiver

Can you set the mic sensitivity on an SK300 beltpack from the receiver?

I've got to run a show for a school tomorrow, and there's a very short set up time for 8 EW300 headset systems. I was there yesterday and the sensitivity is set too high on the transmitter packs, but with students running everywhere there was no opportunity to change the settings. When I got back I looked up Sennheiser's instruction PDF, which is rather vague but seems to suggest you can change the sensitivity from the receiver using the menu option "Advanced Menu->Sync Settings->SK Settings". But it just says "here you can activate/deactivate the transfer of the following transmitter parameters: Sensitivity...". I do not know if this means you can actually set it, or just read it, or what, can anyone tell me?

 

I'll set the packs up before the show, but if my setting turns out to be too low during the show it would be nice to be able to adjust them.

I'd go for -51dB then. Unless you have a foghorn of a singer swallowing their mic capsule you shouldn't find you get any clipping set there. The CPC capsules are quite high output and sit very close to the mouth, so will easily clip TXs set up for an ME2 tie clip, which might be the issue you have had.
