Wireless Personal Stereo Monitor System

The Shure® PSM®900 Wireless in-ear monitor system is used for on­field/on-stage talent. The system allows for personal adjustment of
mix and volume and compensates for delay from the sound system.

Sound travels at 1120' (341 m) per second. This produces a noticeable
delay as one moves away from the speaker. Even experienced
performers have trouble adjusting to this delay. A wireless in-ear
monitor system provides a real-time signal to the talent and blocks the
sound delay from their ears.

Note: If more receivers are required and the transmitter is already
installed, additional receiver packs and headphones are available
to purchase.

Setup & Operation 17

3.8 Microphone Best Practices

 Keep handheld microphones 4-6 inches (102-152 mm) from the mouth (about the width

of a hand).

“P-pops” are loud sounds created by the release of breath when saying letters like “p” or
“b”. To avoid P-pops, keep handheld microphones below the mouth, angled toward the

nose at a 45° angle. Do not point the front of the microphone straight at the mouth.

 Position headset microphones as close to the mouth as comfortable.

 The referee bodypack kit includes both headset and lapel microphones. In general it is

recommended to use the headset mic for best results. If the lapel mic is desired, clip it
onto a lapel, as close to the center of the chest as possible.

 The softer or louder the speaker’s voice, move the microphone closer or further away,

respectively.

 Never hit or intentionally blow into a microphone as it could quite easily be damaged.

3.9 Personal Monitor System Operation

Basic instructions are described below and shown in Figure 26. For more information, refer to
the Shure® PSM®900 Personal Wireless Monitor System User Guide.

1. Flip the transmitter POWER switch to ON if it is not already on; ensure the RF

switch to the left of it is OFF at this time.

2. Power on the handheld receiver using the volume knob.

3. Attach the antenna and earphones to the top of the handheld receiver.

4. Flip open the battery cover to expose the control buttons. Press SCAN and the

display will show “SYNC NOW”.

Note: Insert new or fully-charged batteries prior to each use, and always have spares
on hand.

Section 6: Daktronics Exchange and Repair &

Return Programs

6.1 Exchange Program

The Daktronics Exchange Program is a service for quickly replacing key components in need
of repair. If a component fails, Daktronics sends a replacement part to the customer who, in
turn, returns the failed component to Daktronics. This decreases equipment downtime.
Customers who follow the program guidelines explained below will receive this service.

Before Contacting Daktronics

Identify these important numbers:

Model Number: ________________________________________________________________
Job/Contract Number: __________________________________________________________
Date Manufactured/Installed: ___________________________________________________
Daktronics Customer ID Number: ________________________________________________

To participate in the Exchange Program, follow these steps.

1. Call Daktronics Customer Service.

2. When the new exchange part is received, mail the old part to Daktronics.

If the replacement part fixes the problem, send in the problem part being replaced.

a. Package the old part in the same shipping materials in which the replacement

part arrived.

b. Fill out and attach the enclosed UPS shipping document.
c. Ship the part to Daktronics.

3. The defective or unused parts must be returned to Daktronics within 5 weeks of

initial order shipment.

If any part is not returned within five (5) weeks, a non-refundable invoice will be
presented to the customer for the costs of replenishing the exchange parts inventory
with a new part.

Daktronics reserves the right to refuse parts that have been damaged due to acts of
nature or causes other than normal wear and tear.

Daktronics Exchange and Repair & Return Programs 25

6.2 Repair & Return Program

For items not subject to exchange, Daktronics offers a Repair & Return Program. To send a
part for repair, follow these steps:

1. Call or fax Daktronics Customer Service:

Refer to the appropriate market number in the chart listed on the previous page.

Fax: [phone]

2. Receive a case number before shipping.

This expedites repair of the part.

3. Package and pad the item carefully to prevent damage during shipment.

Electronic components, such as printed circuit boards, should be placed in an
antistatic bag before boxing. Daktronics does not recommend using packing
‘peanuts’ when shipping.

4. Enclose:

of Liability

Daktronics Warranty and Limitation of Liability 31

Copyright © Daktronics, Inc. SL-02374 Rev 10 02-Mar-2009 Page 1 of 2

DAKTRONICS

WARRANTY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

This Warranty and Limitation of Liability (the “Warranty”) sets forth the warranty provided by Daktronics with respect to the Equipment. By
accepting delivery of the Equipment, Purchaser agrees to be bound by and accept these terms and conditions. All defined terms within
the Warranty shall have the same meaning and definition as provided elsewhere in the Agreement.

DAKTRONICS WILL ONLY BE OBLIGATED TO HONOR THE WARRANTY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS UPON RECEIPT OF FULL
PAYMENT FOR THE EQUIPMENT.

1. Warranty Coverage

2. Exclusion from Warranty Coverage

A. Daktronics warrants to the original end-user that the Equipment will be free from Defects (as defined below) in materials and
workmanship for a period of one (1) year (the “Warranty Period”). The warranty period shall commence on the earlier of: (i) four
weeks from the date that the equipment leaves Daktronics’ facility; or (ii) Substantial Completion as defined herein. The warranty
period shall expire on the first anniversary of the commencement date.

“Substantial Completion” means the operational availability of the Equipment to the Purchaser in accordance with the
Equipment’s specifications, without regard to punch-list items, or other non-substantial items which do not affect the operation of

the Equipment.

B. Daktronics’ obligation under this Warranty is limited to, at Daktronics’ option, replacing or repairing, any Equipment or part
thereof that is found by Daktronics not to conform to the Equipment’s specifications. Unless otherwise directed by Daktronics,

any defective part or component shall be returned to Daktronics for repair or replacement. Daktronics may, at its option,
provide on-site warranty service. Daktronics shall have a reasonable period of time to make such replacements or repairs and
all labor associated therewith shall be performed during regular working hours. Regular working hours are Monday through
Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. at the location where labor is performed, excluding any holidays observed by either
Purchaser or Daktronics.

C. Daktronics shall pay ground transportation charges for the return of any defective component of the Equipment. If returned
Equipment is repaired or replaced under the terms of this warranty, Daktronics will prepay ground transportation charges back to
Purchaser; otherwise, Purchaser shall pay transportation charges to return the Equipment back to the Purchaser. All returns must
be pre-approved by Daktronics before shipment. Daktronics shall not be obligated to pay freight for any unapproved return.
Purchaser shall pay any upgraded or expedited transportation charges.

D. Any replacement parts or Equipment will be new or serviceably used, comparable in function and performance to the
original part or Equipment, and warranted for the remainder of the Warranty Period. Purchasing additional parts or Equipment
from the Seller does not extend this Warranty Period.

E. Defects shall be defined as follows. With regard to the Equipment (excepting LEDs), a “Defect” shall refer to a material
variance from the design specifications that prohibit the Equipment from operating for its intended use. With respect to LEDs,
“Defects” are defined as LED pixels that cease to emit light. The limited warranty provided by Daktronics does not impose any
duty or liability upon Daktronics for partial LED pixel degradation. Nor does the limited warranty provide for the replacement or
installation of communication methods including but not limited to, wire, fiber optic cable, conduit, trenching, or for the purpose
of overcoming local site interference radio equipment substitutions.

THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS THE ONLY WARRANTY APPLICABLE TO THE EQUIPMENT AND REPLACES ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR
CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SPECIFICALLY, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, THE SELLER
UNDERTAKES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE QUALITY OF THE EQUIPMENT OR THAT THE EQUIPMENT WILL BE FIT FOR ANY PARTICULAR
PURPOSE FOR WHICH PURCHASER MAY BE BUYING THE EQUIPMENT. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY IS LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE
WARRANTY PERIOD. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION, OR ADVICE GIVEN BY THE COMPANY, ITS AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES,
SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY OR IN ANY WAY INCREASE THE SCOPE OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.

THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS NOT TRANSFERABLE.

The limited warranty provided by Daktronics does not impose any duty or liability upon Daktronics for:

A Any damage occurring, at any time, during shipment of Equipment unless otherwise provided for in the Agreement. When
returning Equipment to Daktronics for repair or replacement, Purchaser assumes all risk of loss or damage, and agrees to use
any shipping containers that might be provided by Daktronics and to ship the Equipment in the manner prescribed by
Daktronics;

B. Any damage caused by the unauthorized adjustment, repair or service of the Equipment by anyone other than personnel of
Daktronics or its authorized repair agents;

Copyright © Daktronics, Inc. SL-02374 Rev 10 02-Mar-2009 Page 2 of 2

misuse, (ii) a failure or sudden surge of electrical power, (iii) improper air conditioning or humidity control, or (iv) any other cause
other than ordinary use;

D. Damage caused by fire, flood, earthquake, water, wind, lightning or other natural disaster, strike, inability to obtain m aterials
or utilities, war, terrorism, civil disturbance or any other cause beyond Daktronics’ reasonable control;

E. Failure to adjust, repair or replace any item of Equipment if it would be impractical for Daktronics personnel to do so because
of connection of the Equipment by mechanical or electrical means to another device not supplied by Daktronics, or the
existence of general environmental conditions at the site that pose a danger to Daktronics personnel;

F. Any statements made about the product by salesmen, dealers, distributors or agents, unless such statements are in a written
document signed by an officer of Daktronics. Such statements as are not included in a signed writing do not constitute
warranties, shall not be relied upon by Purchaser and are not part of the contract of sale;

G. Any damage arising from the use of Daktronics products in any application other than the commercial and industrial

3. Limitation of Liability

4. Assignment of Rights

5. Dispute Resolution

6. Governing Law

7. Availability of Extended Service Agreement

Daktronics shall be under no obligation to furnish continued service under this Warranty if alterations are made to the Equipment
without the prior written approval of Daktronics.

It is specifically agreed that the price of the Equipment is based upon the following limitation of liability. In no event shall
Daktronics (including its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, or agents) be liable for any special, con sequential,
incidental or exemplary damages arising out of or in any way connected with the Equipment or otherwise, including but not
limited to damages for lost profits, cost of substitute or replacement equipment, down time, lost data, injury to property or any
damages or sums paid by Purchaser to third parties, even if Daktronics has been advised of the possibility of such damages. The
foregoing limitation of liability shall apply whether any claim is based upon principles of contract, tort or statutory duty, principles
of indemnity or contribution, or otherwise.

In no event shall Daktronics be liable to Purchaser or any other party for loss, damage, or injury of any kind or nature arising out of
or in connection with this Warranty in excess of the purchase price of the Equipment actually delivered to and paid for by the
Purchaser. The Purchaser’s remedy in any dispute under this Warranty shall be ultimately limited to the Purchase Price of the
Equipment to the extent the Purchase Price has been paid.

The Warranty contained herein extends only to the original end-user (which may be the Purchaser) of the Equipment and no
attempt to extend the Warranty to any subsequent user-transferee of the Equipment shall be valid or enforceable without the
express written consent of Daktronics.

Any dispute between the parties will be resolved exclusively and finally by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration
Association (“AAA”) and conducted under its rules, except as otherwise provided below. The arbitration will be conducted
before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be held in Brookings, South Dakota. Any decision rendered in such arbitration
proceedings will be final and binding on each of the parties, and judgment may be entered thereon in any court of competent
jurisdiction. This arbitration agreement is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed
by the Federal Arbitration Act.

The rights and obligations of the parties under this warranty shall not be governed by the provisions of the United Nations
Convention on Contracts for the International Sales of Goods of 1980. Both parties consent to the application of the laws of the
State of South Dakota to govern, interpret, and enforce all of Purchaser and Daktronics rights, duties, and obligations arising
from, or relating in any manner to, the subject matter of this Warranty, without regard to conflict of law principles.

For Purchaser’s protection, in addition to that afforded by the warranties set forth herein, Purchaser may purchase extended
warranty services to cover the Equipment. The Extended Service Agreement, available from Daktronics, provides for electronic
parts repair and/or on-site labor for an extended period from the date of expiration of this warranty. Alternatively, an Extended
Service Agreement may be purchased in conjunction with this warranty for extended additional services. For further information,
