OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS OPUS 500
Thank you for selecting the Opus 500 wireless system in PLL synthesised technology.
Please take some time to read carefully through this manual before setting up the equipment.
Important:
• When you unpack the devices, inspect them for transport damage. If you do find transport
damage, notify the transportation company without delay. Delay in reporting transport
damage could result in the loss of your rights to an adjustment. Only the consignee (you)
may institute a claim with the carrier for transport damage.

1.2 Connecting Antennae
Connect the two ZEA 500 telescopic antennae to the antenna inputs (5). Fully extend
the antennae.
Please note that for diversity operation both antennae have to be connected. A weighting
circuit silently switches the signal with the better S/N ratio to the output.
1.3 Setting up
1. Place the NE 500 diversity receiver in the same room or area as the transmitters. Ensure
that the NE 500 is installed as close as possible to the mixing console or amplifier so that
the display can be seen at all times.
2. Do not place the NE 500 receiver near digitally controlled equipment.
3. Connect the XLR-output (7) to the corresponding input of the mixing console or amplifier.
4. Make sure the mains voltage shown on the power supply unit corresponds to the local
mains voltage.
5. Connect the power supply unit to the receiver and to AC power.
6. Adjust the output level (8) of the receiver depending on the connected mixing console or
amplifier.
Rule of thumb: Microphone level - fully anti-clockwise
Line level - fully clockwise
7. Switch the NE 500 on (1).
The following indications will appear:
You can display this indication (2.) any time by pressing the left button (3).
8. If the transmitter is switched off, the following default screen appears on the display (2):
If there is a transmitter switched on, but nobody speaks into the microphone, the following
default screen appears on the display:

If there is a transmitter switched on and somebody speaks into the microphone, the following
default screen appears on the display (2):
1.3.1 Diversity Indication of the Receiving Channel
The NE 500 has two separate receiving circuits for each of the antennae. The signal with
the better S/N ratio is switched to the output. The received diversity channel (A or B) is shown
on the LC-display.
1.3.2 Reading the AF- and RF-level
The AF- or RF- level can be read by using the upper and lower scale of the LC-display.
1.3.3 Switching off the AF
If you want to disable the AF signal of the transmitter, press the right button. The AF is
switched off and the following indication appears:
1.3.4 AF overload
An overload of the transmitter is also indicated on the display (2). If the following
indication appears, reduce the transmitter sensitivity or increase the distance between
microphone and sound source.
