Welcome to the MSR-602/604 II Users Manual

Welcome

This manual is provided to assist sound engineers, installers and
consultants to fully understand the MSR-604 II and to benefit from its
full capability.

As opposed to most manuals, the contents can be read like a book.

At the same time, the information is structured under a series of broad
headings for easy access.  So where possible within each section:

· The most 

immediate

 information appears at the head of each section

under the main title.

· As you read further into each subsequent section, more detailed,

specific information is given.

Should you have any comments or questions about applying the
MSR-604 II within your application, please write to us at the address in
the warranty section.
