All Models: Operating Instructions
1. Plug the electronics interface into a 3-pin
XLR-type connector with its cable routed to the
audio mixer.
2. At the mixer, plug the mic cable from the
lectern into an input with 12-48 volt phantom
power. Make sure the phantom power switch on
the mic is on.
3. If phantom power is not available on your
audio mixer, connect the mic cable from the
microphone to an external phantom power sup-
ply such as a Crown PH-1A. Connect another
mic cable between the phantom power supply
output and a mixer mic input.
4. If mechanical noise or breath pops are exces-
sive, use a pen or pencil to set the fl at/low-cut
switch in the electronics interface to “cut”
( ). Push the switch up to enable low cut.
5. Do not lubricate the gooseneck.
