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.

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).
