D5000s and D6000s may be upgraded to an EPROM version 2.0 or
greater that allows 500 mode operation, and considerable user benefits.
D600 does not have a software upgrade, the options are to use 200 mode
or to upgrade the D600 to DSP5000B by changing the electronics panel.
If you have DSP5000s or D6000s with software version 2.0 or greater,
then move to the following section, ‘500 mode digital speakers’ and follow
the instructions for D5000.
200 Mode digital speakers
Note If you operate the speakers in 200 mode, then all Meridian 500
Series products must be set to 200 mode. See the instructions that came
with each product. In general it will be necessary to select a Type in the
same way as 562 and if in doubt choose Type 2.
Do the following:
1. Connect the phono plug on the end of the M-lead provided with the
speakers to the main digital output of the 562.
2. Connect one of the two DIN plugs on one end of the M-lead to one of
the COMMS sockets on the back of 562.
3. Setup the speakers according to the manual, selecting a Type that
expects a preamplifier (like 201).
• D600 start with Type ??.
• D6000 version 1.x start with Type ??.
• DSP5000 version 1.x start with Type ??.
• D6000 version 2.x start with Type 2.
• DSP5000 version 2.x start with Type 2.
4. Set the 562 to Type 2 (see the instructions on page ??.
5. Set other 500 components to Type 2.
Note There are usually two DIN plugs on an M-lead. Take care to chose
the correct one and do not force the plug. The second plug is used to
connect to any 200 Series products in the range.
In 200 mode the following differences apply to 562.
• You can control the complete system with the 609, DSP5000 or D6000
Remote supplied with the speakers.
• Volume control and mute are handled by the speakers.
• Sources can be selected remotely via the loudspeakers or from the
front panel of 562.
• Muting can be controlled from the front panel of 562.
• Only 8 sources are available in the 200 comms system.
