  If the audio from an Interpreter Unit cannot be heard in the headphone of Delegate or Chairman Units within your Shure Conference System, check that the unit is configured as an Interpreter Unit. Also, check the headphone volume control on the units, the channel selection on the microphone units, and that the headphone plug is firmly inserted in the headphone jack. Finally, ensure that the light ring on the microphone on the Interpreter Unit is illuminated and that the gooseneck microphone is firmly inserted in the socket.

How to troubleshoot no audio in the built-in loudspeakers of my Shure DCS 6000 Conference System?

  Matthew MclaughlinAug 22, 2025
  To resolve this, verify the 'Loudspeaker Volume' setting via the interactive menu on the CU or through the browser control. Also, using the browser control, ensure that the setting 'CU 6110 Setup * Audio * Loudspeaker Control * Microphone -> Loudspeaker' is set to 'On'. Finally, confirm in the browser control settings under 'CU 6110 * Audio * Audio Output * Group Setup' that the seats are selected in 'Group A', as this group serves as the source for the built-in loudspeakers. Units not in 'Group A' will not have their audio heard through the loudspeakers.

  Nicole LeeSep 4, 2025
  If a microphone on your Shure Conference System cannot be turned on, check that all cabling for DIS equipment is Cat 5e or higher with shielded RJ45 cables. Also, check the settings for Max. Delegate Speaker and Max. Total Speakers to ensure there is capacity for another microphone to be activated. Finally, verify the Operation Mode to confirm it allows participants to turn on their own microphones.

  If the DIS-CCU browser application won't open on your PC, use the interactive menu on the CCU to check the IP address under LAN setup > Acquire IP address, and use this IP address in your browser. Verify that the CCU and the PC are connected to the same network, and check the LAN cable connections.

  If no audio is coming from the built-in loudspeakers of your Shure Conference System, first, check the 'Loudspeaker Volume' setting using either the interactive menu on the CCU or the browser control. Also, verify that the loudspeaker volume is set high enough and that the floor mix is assigned to the loudspeaker. Finally, ensure that the seats are selected in 'Group A'.

What to do if the 'Del. Off' button on the chairman unit doesn't switch off delegate units in Shure DCS 6000?
- B
  Brent HessAug 31, 2025
  To address this, verify if the unit is configured as a chairman unit. Also, check if the units that are not switching off are configured as chairman units, as chairman units are not switched off by the ‘Del. Off’ button.

  To troubleshoot, check the headphone volume control on the units. Ensure the channel selection on the Conference units is correct.

Why are the light rings constantly flashing on the microphones in my Shure DCS 6000 units?
- B
  Benjamin GarciaAug 28, 2025
  To resolve the flashing light rings, check the cables to ensure digital communication from the central unit to the Conference units is established. Verify that all connectors on all cables are firmly inserted in the DCS-LAN sockets on the units. Also, ensure that the feeding cables from the Conference units are inserted in the ‘DCS-LAN’ chain connectors on the CU 6110.

  To address this, check the IP address using the interactive menu on the CU: ‘LAN setup * IP address setup * IP address’. Use this IP address in the browser. Make sure that the iPad is connected to the correct wireless access point. Ensure that the CU 6110 is connected to the same network as the wireless access point.
