Connecting the headphones/adjusting the volume
Each receiver of the EM 550 G2 has its own separate headphone output for monitoring the audio signal.
Connect headphones with a ¼” (6.3 mm) jack plug to the headphone output (PHONES) .
Attention! High volume!
Even short exposure to high volume levels will damage your hearing! Set the volume for the connected headphones to the minimum before putting the headphones on.
First, set the volume control to the lowest volume by turning it to the left as far as possible. Then gradually turn up the volume.
Volume up? – NO!
When people use headphones, they tend to choose a higher volume than with loudspeakers. Listening at high volume levels for long periods can lead to permanent hearing defects. Please protect your hearing, Sennheiser headphones have an excellent sound quality even at low volumes.
Activating/deactivating the lock mode
Each receiver of the EM 550 G2 has a lock mode that can be activated or deactivated via the operating menu (see “Activating/deactivating the lock mode” on page 61). The lock mode prevents that the receiver is accidentally programmed or switched off during operation.
