12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with
the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to
avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or
objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped.

Location
• The equipment must be set up so that the mains switch, mains plug and all connection on the rear
of the device are easily accessible.
• If you transport the equipment to another location take care to ensure that it is adequately secured
and can never be damaged by being dropped or by impacts on the equipment.
Fire hazard
• Never place naked flames (e.g. candles) near the equipment.
Humidity / heat sources
• Never expose the equipment to rain or a high level of humidity. For this reason do not install it in the
immediate vicinity of swimming pools, showers, damp basement rooms or other areas with unusually
high atmospheric humidity.
• Never place objects containing liquid (e.g. vases or drinking glasses) on the equipment. Liquids in the
equipment could cause a short circuit.
• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
Ventilation
• This equipment needs adequate ventilation. Do not cover ventilation grilles. If the heat it generates
cannot be dissipated, the equipment could be damaged or flammable materials in its immediate
vicinity could be ignited. Take care to ensure that the air can circulate freely through the ventilation
grilles and keep flammable materials away.
• Do not insert objects into the ventilation grilles or other openings. You could damage the equipment
and/or injure yourself.
Connection
• The equipment must be connected to a mains socket that has an earth contact.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles,
and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
• Lay all connection cables so that they do not present a trip hazard.
• Whenever working on the equipment switch off all inputs and outputs to the power supply.
• Check whether the connection figures comply with the existing mains supply. Serious damage could
occur due to connecting the system to the wrong power supply. An incorrect mains voltage could
damage the equipment or cause an electric shock.
• Please note that different operating voltages require the use of different types of power cable and plugs.
Please refer to the following table:
• If the equipment causes a blown fuse or a short circuit, disconnect it from the mains and have it
checked and repaired.
• Do not hold the mains cable with wet hands. There must be no water or dust on the contact pins.
In both cases you could receive an electric shock.
• The mains cable must be firmly connected. If it is loose there is a fire hazard.
Voltage Power plug according to standard
110 - 125 V UL817 and CSA C 22.2 no 42.
220 - 230 V CEE 7 page VII, SR section 107-2-D1/IEC 83 page C4.
240 V BS 1363 (1984): “Specification for 13A fused plugs and
switched and un-switched socket outlets.”

• Always pull out the mains cable from the mains and/or from the equipment by the plug – never by the
cable. The cable could be damaged and cause an electric shock or fire.
• Do not use the equipment if the mains plug is damaged.
• If you connect defective or unsuitable accessories, the equipment could be damaged. Only use
connection cables available from or recommended by beyerdynamic. If you use cables you have made
up yourself, all claim to warranty is null and void.
Maintenance
• Only clean the equipment with a slightly damp or dry cloth. Never use solvents as these damage the
surface.
Troubel shooting / repair
• Do not open the equipment without authorisation. You could receive an electric shock. There are no
user-serviceable parts inside.
• Leave all service work to authorised expert personnel.
1.2 S 600 / TS 600 transmitters
• Protect the transmitter from moisture and sudden impacts. You could either injure yourself or others or
damage the transmitter.
• Do not blow into the microphone. In a condenser microphone this could damage the transformer.
It is preferable to carry out a speech trial.
• Clip-on microphones are often very compact. If they are accidentally swallowed there is a risk of
choking. Always keep this type of microphone away from small children.
• Always switch off the transmitter before charging or changing the battery.
• The normal commercial alkaline batteries can have a length tolerance of 2 - 3 mm. When changing
the battery always ensure good contact.
• From time to time the battery contacts should the moistened with spirits or alcohol and cleaned with
a soft cloth.
• If the transmitter is not being used for weeks or months, please remove the batteries. Batteries can
leak when not being used for a long time and corrode the conductor strips and components. Repair
is not then possible. In this case all warranty claims are null and void. The description “leak proof” on
batteries is no guarantee that they will not run out.
• Never take batteries apart yourself. The battery acid contained will damage skin and clothing.
1.3 Disposal
• This symbol on the product, in the instructions or on the packaging means that your
electrical and electronic equipment should be disposed at the end of its life separately
from your household waste. There are separate collection systems for recycling in the
EU. For more information, please contact the local authority or your retailer where you
purchased the product.
• Make sure to dispose of used batteries as required by local waste disposal rules. Never
throw batteries into a fire (risk of explosion) or dustbin.
• When scrapping the equipment, remove the batteries, separate the case, circuit boards,
and cables, and dispose of all components in accordance with local waste disposal
rules.

pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

2.2 How to connect the antennae
Connect the antennae to the TNC sockets and and set them at an angle (60°).
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.
Important:
Avoid obstacles between antennae and transmitter; otherwise the reception could be disturbed.
2.3 Where to place the receiver
• Place the diversity receiver in the same room or area as the transmitters. Make sure the diversity
receiver is placed as close as possible to the transmitter.
• Ensure that the NE 600 is installed as close as possible to the mixing console or amplifier so that the
display can be seen at all times.
• Do not place the diversity receiver near digitally controlled equipment.
2.4 Connections
• Connect the Audio output to the corresponding input of the mixing console or amplifier. Use the
balanced Audio output , when you connect the receiver to a mixer/amplifier with a balanced
input.
• Use the unbalanced Audio output , when you connect the receiver to the “LINE” input of an
instrument amplifier.
• Make sure the Mic/Line level switch is switched to the correct position.
Switch to “LINE”, when you connect the receiver to a mixer/amplifier. When connecting to a
guitar amplifier you should choose “LINE”, or the volume may be too low.
Switch to “MIC-IN”, when you connect the receiver to a microphone input.
Incorrect positioning of the Mic/Line level switch can cause distortion.
• Make sure the mains voltage shown on the power supply unit corresponds to the local mains
voltage.
• Connect the power supply unit to the receiver or the power cable to the power connection
and to AC mains power.
